    I wonder if Richard Murray knows how much the fan base now hates him
    Does he care?
    Oh yes.
    Can we make our feelings anymore clearer to him?

    All the more bizarre as to why he won't just bow out for the good of the club's future and his reputation... Assuming that he isn't now out to actively sabotage that is.

    He's probably as bitter as his mate Roland. Like rejected lovers their raison d'etre appears to be to make it as uncomfortable for those who have scorned them even to the extent of revenge.

    There can be no other reason for their vindictiveness. That and pure greed of course.

    This Peninsular talk. I thought it had been established that there is no unallocated land left on which to build a stadium?
    The only place I think of is the driving range.
    The land on which the driving range sits is allocated for a development called Peninsula Quays, currently with zero "affordable" housing and a private school.

    He has had opportunities to come back to fans and show some humility over the years but has failed to take them.

    Can’t imagine being a person who has such bitterness and spite in their soul. Has money and power made them like this or is it in their genetic make up? If it’s the former then I’m glad I’m a lowly working class man with barely a pot to piss in. At least I can look at myself in the mirror with a clear conscience.

    If you're pissing in that pot I wouldn't look in the mirror.

    Oh yes.
    But does he understand?  And if he does, why is he persisting in inserting himself where he's not wanted?

    I wonder whether anyone willvoice their opinions of RM around noon on Saturday.

  • @Airman Brown - You say higher up the thread that the club could have been sold in 2005 - who was interested in buying it back then?

    Those were the PL glory days so I presume the BOD did not really have to sell back then as it was all looking so good......

    They put the price up and the buyer walked.

    Was Roland being coached by Murray when the Aussies walked per chance
  • Apologises if this has been covered elsewhere but is Murray still involved or is that unclear? 

    I personally hope he's out of the club for good.

    I expect TS will meet him and make up his own mind.
    And then, I hope, do the right thing.

    Involved how? He's not a director, he doesn't have any formal role at the club.

    I'm sure he will be lurking around trying to get in TS's ear and to offer his valuable insight and experience, even though he hasnt done anything decent at Charlton in over ten years.

    He didn’t have any formal role at the club with Roland either (beyond a certain point) but that didn’t stop him hanging around.

    "Hi Richard, I work for the South London press, and I'd just like to ask you a question about your circumstances at Charlton. What's your job and role at the club?"

    RM: My job is the semi fake random director of being a prick.

    "Oh"

    Murray was a director of CAFC until ESI took over

    Just hope a couple of people have had a word in TS ear about Murray.

    Keohane too.

    Murray is still director (along with RD) of Charlton Athletic Holdings Ltd, which owns The Valley & Training Ground.
    I wonder who vetoed Barclay (possibly as a result of his connection to Varney?)

    Steve Gallen said Richard Murray is no longer officially involved with the club.
    However, Gallen has a lot of time for him and did in fact speak to him today.
    Make of that what you will.
