had a fella in the cab today and got talking football. He’s a Southend supporter and his company has links (sponsor??). Seemed to know a lot of people in football.
One of his best mates is Kevin Nugent and he told me of a game when he was our caretaker manager which we won 1-0, our goal coming in the first half. Allegedly he was told after the game that RD wanted to speak to him and he wasn’t happy. When he rang RD he said “it is not good enough. We should be beating teams like this!!!” Apparently he’d only seen the 2nd half on a stream and thought we’d drawn the game 0-0
another time he claims Katrien tried to tell him who to pick and he refused’ saying as long as he’s manager, he picks the team.
Maybe bollocks but sounds all too probable

That's just it... he isn't going to sell. Time to wake up and smell the coffee methinks.
I am sure a lot more will come out as soon as we rid ourselves of this pestilence!
Perhaps RD is trying to provoke some admission of fault on the part of the EFL for not enforcing or retaining FFP rules as they then were, so that he can decide whether he's got enough of a case to sue them. The justification for losing a lot of money in English football that he has now constructed for himself is clearly that it's the EFL's fault, not his.
I'll let you boys into another little secret.....I’m also a Charlton fan 😳
I did !
