So Jim didn't reach out to you?addick05 said:
Hate this expression 'reached out'. My publishers in the US were always emailing and informing me that someone would be 'reaching out' to me. Sounds like you are waiting to be rescued from drowning. I was sorely tempted to make a sarcastic comment but held back.J BLOCK said:Anyone know if Jim has reached out to Airman/CARD before this interview to get an updated fact check?

I have banned it in the workplace...difficult as I have a number of US clients and colleagues!!!59 -
Probably for the best that they canned it.
Heard some really heartfelt and emotional tributes from Leicester fans regarding the loss of a very special man.
Who seriously wants to hear about our spiteful sh*tbag owner at a time like this?

He said what Duchatalet said was fair enough in terms of honesty. Which is totally missing the point, the issue has never been communication with the fans for me, he said what he was going to do the moment he bought us, most people were too busy hyperventilating with excitement to have listened to it though.roseandcrown said:
What did Bob say?Carter said:Has Kieran Richardson had a head injury or something? What is his purpose in being in the studio today, he is repeating what Jim White is coming out with
Listening objectively I can almost get why Bob Mills said what he did, it didn't stop me screaming 'WHAT?" when he said it5 -

A large part of the Duchatalet problem is quite simple though, isn't it? He bought the club with a plan based on the introduction of financial fair play. Then when that was rejected, and it was clear that his plan was now unworkable, he carried on regardless.10

The more sensible flow would be as attached.7 -
He appointed a series of people to positions of authority who were not capable of running the club - on and off the pitch - and that would have been true regardless of FFP.Algarveaddick said:A large part of the Duchatalet problem is quite simple though, isn't it?

Another hater of “reached out” here. Surely you mean “contacted”?J BLOCK said:Anyone know if Jim has reached out to Airman/CARD before this interview to get an updated fact check?

Communication should be a two way process.
if he and Meire had listened they might have avoided many of the mistakes but they refused to even consider other views.
Their version of communication was "we know best and even when we get it wrong we'll lie and blame others".44 -

“Of course I can understand their frustration and they have every right to be [frustrated],” she said. “But I hope they understand the owner wants the best for Charlton. He does it his way and they need to accept that.

Also his original plan was sketchy at best, even if FFP had been feintly credible. Everybody in football with half a cell between their ears knew from the kick off that FFP was under cooked tosh badly written by halfwits, however well intentioned it may have been. the douche never knew or cared a fig about any individual football club, but his monumental ego told him he could run football better than all those others who had been hemorrhaging money in it for generations. When challenged on his preposterous bungling in football the douche's ego proved to as brittle as it was gargantuan, hence the occasional semi-coherent toddler tantrums, via the website. The appointment of unqualified and inappropriate saps to executive positions is just one symptom of his idiocy. The toxicity it has disseminated has us stumbling around as a midtable 3rd division club playing in front of ever decreasing numbers.Airman Brown said:

How very dare you, knave!! Sir Tom Courtenay, master in his field, national treasure, beyond reproach, compared to a bungling egomaniac with the social skills of a spoiled hungry toddler!! To The Tower with you, blackguard! May you sprout warts and pustules across the whole of your heinous visage, may all your children be left-handed gingers who support the spanners and the nigels! A pox on you, worm!Henry Irving said:10 -
Apology to the fans and for the poor communication in the Standard tonight.0
