Another option could be John Terry with Wayne Bridge as his assistant.
A Bridge too far ?16 -
Wilder would be the ultimate statement of intent14

I can't be the only one who is amazed by the amount of Chris Wilder suggestions, as if it would be in any way remotely possible?26

We’re in League One, we’re not going to be playing total football any time soon no matter who comes in.This is an appointment for the long term, not a quick fix promotion. It’s not a choice of pretty football and losing or bad football and winning.Knowing how Sandgaard likes football to be played it seems very unlikely that he’ll keen on the Cowley’s.
Think the whole thing is a bit of a myth to be honest, apart from a few extreme examples.My point is solely to do with the Cowley’s. They found a methodology that worked in the lower leagues and I’m not saying it wouldn’t be successful in League One (they’d be drooling at the thought of Stockley up top) - it’s when you get past League One where things start to break down.As a long term appointment I don’t think it fits the mould, especially the way Sandgaard wants his team to play.0 -

Any employee can take the money and do what they always do, either successfully or not, but as a club we need someone who will buy into the CAFC ethos embodied by Curbs, Powell and yes, Bowyer. There is no way that the Cowley Brothers would do that any more than Karl Robinson did.
Those that have played for the club and seen us through the bad times should have a head start in the loyalty stakes otherwise we will become a management revolving door like other clubs. We are not other clubs. I believe that TS understands that and was part of the reason he bought the club. That should sway his decision.
When employing people I have always looked for the commitment to the company that takes people the extra mile and makes the company successful.3 -

Sell him a vision, control on transfers, good owner. What's not to like.7 -

Sheffield Utd were owned by a Saudi Prince and I don't think Wilder was happy with how much they were spending though, surely they are much richer than Sandgaard is?
I get the clip about him talking about the Charlton job, but surely the point is how much his stock has risen since then, he's not still coming off the Northampton job.0 -
cafctom said:I want a Charlton connection, as I think it’s a powerful way of instigating a positive mentality around the club and with the fans.
Its worked in a big way before, and I think League One is weak enough that it could be enough to work for us again.
I’m not particularly interested in having some L1 manager Merry-go-round which changes every year or so, whether they’ve achieved promotion before or not.
The most enjoyment (and success) we’ve had is when there’s a Charlton man in charge, and it just so happens that our new caretaker manager is about as Charlton as they come.
Imagine the feeling next season when we all return to The Valley, and there is someone at the helm we can all properly identify with.My vote is for Johnnie Jackson.7 -

Depends how much money TS has to throw at it. Kevin Keegan went to Fulham because they had a big budget and something similar might attract a "Name"
Or TS might prefer to go with someone cheaper and perhaps a little more hungry (like Roland did with LB).
Chris Wilder might fancy getting straight back in. There is a chance (probably small in his case) that a spell out of the game means you get forgotten about. Do jobs like the Charlton job crop up that often? On the face of it....good owner, good ground, good crowds, should be a good budget, good youth products etc etc.2 - Sponsored links:

We need to get promoted, first and foremost. I love Euell and Jacko, but I don't think either of them have what it takes to do that.7

ShootersHillGuru said:North Lower Neil said:cafctom said:I can't be the only one who is amazed by the amount of Chris Wilder suggestions, as if it would be in any way remotely possible?So he’s then looking at Championship teams. At this time of the season? Hmmm.
It’s a hard sell for Thomas but if he’s promising financial clout in terms of salary and budget then certainly not impossible.3 -

I think TS will want a someone in which signals his intent for where he wants the club to be.
It won't be Wilder though, he's linked with Celtic, he won't be dropping back to L1

“Hi Chris, it’s Ged Roddy calling...”
”Ged who?”
”Ged Roddy. I’m wondering if you’d be interested in the vacancy at Charlt...”

Can't believe Chris Powell is a serious suggestion, got a lot of time for Powell but he left us 7 years ago and hasn't done anything in his managerial career since to suggest he would be a success here.20

Surely we'd be better discussing realistic options?1 -
