Bit of a non-story imo as he's just been given the full time job and I personally think he's duty bound to not speak negatively about the owner, if he wants to keep his job.

By full time job you mean tippexing out ‘caretaker’ and adding ‘until the end of this season’ on his contract, right?
Yes, he needs a decent relationship with the owner - not to pick fights with him. He does need to understand why many of us are not happy with the owner too. Not too harmful what he has said, but would be better not to say any more or even try to mend the relationship between Roland and the fans which KR thought he could do.

Those at Bromley Addicks would have heard him and Steve Gallen say similar.
I didn't get the impression there that either thought that Roland was great, just that, in the end, they'd got the players they had wanted. SG even explained how financially we hadn't been able to match Scunthorpe for Cullen.

Totally understand your point but, never the less, he is now the "full time" manager and I can imagine RD is the sort of bloke who'd ask his manager for a bit of a mention and to accentuate the positives. If we're waiting for a decent full time / caretaker manager who's gonna slag RD off when asked, we're in for a long wait
"I’m not going to just sell to anybody, because I care about the club’.
Turn it in.
If a consortium made up of Kim Jong Un, Mugabe and Josef Fritzl offered 50m he'd sell to them tomorrow.
Might have an issue with the EFL owner test though!
Those three were all rumoured to be part of the Australian consortium but Un pulled out when he decided to pursue his dream of world domination instead.
if under Duchatelet's ownership we won the prem and the euro league, there are many on here who'd still like to see him hanging by his neck outside the main ticket office (or anywhere for that matter)
...and the needle returns to the start of the song and we all sing along like before...
I think every manager we've had under the fruitcake in charge has said something similar and it's always ended badly. I know LB is probably just answering a question but there are ways and means of dodging the issue with a bland answer. He's fooling no one with this, "Roland's not so bad..." bullshit.

Probably not
Speak as you find and Bows is just doing this.
And so are we. No conflict in this at all, as long as nobody makes it one.
Roland out.
Is why the takeover has stalled.
Stupid statement and a kick in the teeth for staff and fans who have watched the club being torn apart over 4 years of gross mismanagement.

We'll...he should be fooling no one.
