Bloody hell.....I hate this site sometimes. Last week I got annoyed by not knowing or finding out where Taylors gaff in Kent is, now I'm going insane(r) wondering who is this spineless individual responsible for the day to say running of the Club !!!!!!
I have been fortunate enough to meet and do business with Chris when my company was a supplier to Charlton Athletic. I found him to be a total gentleman, Charlton through to his core and integrirty which you would expect to find in a man of his age and experience.
Those of you saying he should not have put out last weeks statement or he should have told so and so to shove it are way off the mark. None of us know what pressure he was under when the staement went out, in fact these owners could have written and released it and stuck his name and photo on it.
If he was consulted and reluctantly agreed to do it I am in the camp of assuuming it was not a true reflection of his thoughts and he was hoping that he gets the oppotunity to put the record straight once the scum have left the building.
There are hundreds, if not thousands of employee's up and down the country saying and doing things on behalf of their boss's that they do not agree with but have no choice if they wish to stay employed.
I suspect the statement was one such instance.
So where does he draw the line?
There must be a limit to what he's prepared to do, or will he continue to follow orders of whatever nutter decides to take over the Club next to "stay employed"?

In my limited dealings with Chris he comes across as a very nice chap who does an incredible job for Charlton, and has done for many years. But his weakness (and is a very common one) is that he’s probably too trusting. He’s a decent person who expects others to be the same.
If these ESI people are conmen then what are conmen good at? Being charming. The statement that Elliott put out on the OS when he ‘took over’ (😂) was designed to reassure both fans and old retainers alike. And to some casual fans, and the Parkes, it probably worked. It’s because they’re good at what they do. Appearing decent. Bowyer was charmed too.
Garry Nelson tweeted an apology today for not posting about Charlton In these uncertain, saying it’s because he hasn’t got a clue what’s going on.
To be honest, even after 1030 pages of the Bonkers thread the ‘hustle’ still isn’t 100% explained.
No one is knocking Chris for how nice he is or how dedicated he is to Charlton.
But come on. How many of us wouldn't have handed our notice in the minute Farnell posted Chris's letter of encouragement to his fellow staff members for all the World to see?
He knows what Farnell and Elliott are all about. Wouldn't you resign, walk out and let the rest of football know who these people are?
Does he really need the shit he's getting from his 'management team' at his age, after the service he's given the Club?

I assume he needs his job, he's already been sacked by the scammers once. I think we need to be concentrating on the scammers, not Charlton staff.
If Parkes resigned, the scammers would have a far better opportunity to steal CAFC money, by replacing him with another scammer.

We don't know how much he is keeping the club together being 'inside' though.

They could have brought someone else in above Chris at any time they wanted.
And if working in banking and then for over 30 ears in a senior role at a professional football club - including working in the Premier League - and he still needs an income over and above the state pension he is already receiving, his personal financial management must be piss poor or he's heavily invested in the puff pastry business.
