Stop farting around and announce Garner.
No idea whether he will make the step up, but I could get excited by the appointment provided he is given his head in respect of choice of assistants and recruitment.
If he has those foisted on him then he is already on the back foot.
I don't actually know what our appeal is now to anybody with any pedigree (unless they are unemployed and slightly desperate or past it)
It's not like we are some kind of sleeping giant.
More like a catatonic hunchback
Yes, we filled our end at Wembley, but unless we are challenging next season I foresee a lot of 4-figure attendances.
Of course we are a more attractive proposition than many if not most of our League One small town competitors, but I was thinking in terms of attracting anybody with real pedigree but I don't see we have any pulling power.
Beyond the above, which is really just wallpaper, we are now an established mid-table league one club with a pool of mostly mediocre players.
That is before we get to any concerns the potential recruit may have about choice of assistants or player recruitment.0 -

Maybe their political stance is being given too much credit. They're simply shite apart from a few.
I'm astonished to see you relate that the players knew Jackson was out before Ipswich, but he didn't. You can understand that, to an outsider, that sounds scarcely credible, but, if it's one of the known knowns now, I must say it sounds an unprofessional way of doing things.
Plenty of room for improvement and must do better. Hopefully we will next season.
Let's say, for example, that the renewal was dependent on finishing in the top six. At the time of the Ipswich game, this was not possible, so everyone (including Jackson) 'knew' that his time was over ... although Sandgaard had not formally 'let him go' at that point.
My understanding is that Jackson was not sacked ... it was that Sandgaard chose not to extend his contract (presumably due to failing to meet the agreed performance criteria).
Here's my source:
Jackson out as Charlton boss as Addicks opt against contract extension | Evening Standard
Now, if you know differently ... fair enough.

Next manager - TS says final decision not yet made
closer to the truth to say decision making process not yet started in any meaningful fashion
TS is certainly very different from what one might expect but the truth of the matter is he’s all we’ve got. I 100% believe he genuinely wants the project to succeed so what’s with all the OTT negativity.If I was TS and reading this forum (which I suspect he does), I would be pretty disappointed and think why bother if that’s how I’m thought of. Yes, he’s a bit of an odd ball but he’s our odd ball…..let’s give him a bit of an easier ride, he’s not the devil incarnate FFS and hopefully will learn from his mistakes.
Billy, you may well be right but equally you may be totally wrong.9 -

MS was certainly extremely naive in saying anything to Conor Washington, but it really should have come as no surprise to anyone that after a failure of a season that TS would want to review what went wrong, and obviously that would include "is the current manager the man to take us forward".
To suggest the players played poorly because Jackson's future was in doubt is simply to deny any responsibility players have to perform. The vast majority of managers' position are in doubt to one degree or another. The players can't just not turn up because there's a chance in how ever many days, weeks or months, the manager may lose their job.3 -
...Fair play to Pardew if the reason he left CSKA was racial abuse towards his own black players, reports showing bananas being thrown is disgusting,..he may have a chequered past and divided opinions on his managerial background, but can't fault his actions this time..fair play Alan..

The conversation wasnt initially about Jackson though, Washington was told that any contract for him wouldnt happen as of then as a/the new man might not want him.
"Hey lads, MS just said any contract talks for us OOC players wont happen unitl they maybe sack Jacko....the man who´s been calling for contract talks for some of us....Anyway, 110% on Saturday boys lets do thissssssssssssssssssssssssssss A2V"1 - Sponsored links:

1) Cawley (18 Feb 2022) Johnnie Jackson’s initial contract at Charlton Athletic is for 18 months – with their league finish only affecting the amount of compensation paid if Thomas Sandgaard opts to dispense with his services.
2) Cawley (11 Feb 2022) The Addicks boss could be out of contract this summer with a guaranteed 12-month extension only triggered based on the club’s final finish in League One.
3) Evening Standard (3 May 2022) Johnnie Jackson's 12-year association with Charlton Athletic is over after the club elected not to extend his contract as manager beyond the summer.
Anyone know the truth?
One interpretation might be that all are correct ... ie, the 12-month extension is only triggered if we make (eg) the top six, but Jackson gets more of a payout if we finish 7th compared to 9th etc.0 -

Alan Pardew chooses some strange places to go and Manage. If he had done some due diligence he wouldn't have gone there. Bulgaria and Hungary to name just two countries going towards eastern Europe as we know if you watch England games have some Racist supporters.
Perhaps it's getting more expensive to keep his harem going as I can't believe he couldn't get a job in the states if he is persona non Grata in the UK ?
Good on him for walking out as Alex Dyer is his assistant and he has Black players in his team. He really shouldn't be surprised.0 -
