    I've just arrived here from Oz, the delays at Heathrow customs was absolutely horrific, apparently some bloke with mirrored sunnies and a guitar case was the issue.... 😎
    I hope we hear good news soon. 
    Oz is back, Oz is back, hello! 😉

  • Can someone let me know as soon as he is in the building?  Cannot wait to start slagging him off, whoever he is.

    (sort of joking)

    Can someone more informed than me explain how a deal on compensation may work.

    In my head I just see it as the classic

    ‘10,000’
    ’5,000’
    ’7,500’ 
    Deal

    Sort of situation. 

    But presume it’s more than just a numbers game if it takes this long. 
  • I know sometimes there's a gentleman's agreement alongside money to not poach players or other staff for a certain period of time etc but other than that I can't see what else would hold up negotiations other than certain people wanting to be there for the big moment

    Depends what’s written in their contracts and how negotiable that is I suppose but knowing our luck, Swindon are insisting on the sell-on fee for Nick Pope as appropriate compensation.
  • more like they are after one of our players

    He wasn't here to announce Jackson or Adkins was he?  If he has been here to announce a player it's been a coincidence because he hasn't been here for all of them.

    I don't think that's a reason at all.  It could be that somethings need sorting out face to face but I very much doubt he is "saving it".

    And a view from left field-- Quote- The Zynex mission is to improve the quality of patience- WTF. We all know its to rip the patience off in this 'Land of the Free'' Thank God for Universal Health Care, With all its problems ,100% better than the U S
    The NHS buys equipment too you know, from the very same markets as the Americans. It’s not all altruism that makes the NHS run. 



    Who can forget the Private Finance Initiative?! And the paying £11k for every single use of the loaned MRI scanner in our hospitals?! It is a disaster.

  • I’m not trying to make an impatient point here but if you’d of told me this time last month Jackson will make his first signing in a new job before we named his successor I wouldn't of believed it.

    Nearly 5 weeks, and people defend it. Total circus. 
    I’m defending or attacking it, it’s just a little surprising to me, but if his tactic is to make sure it’s the absolute right one then so be it. 
  • Sure it will be this week not ITK  but just makes sense and the timing for preparation for the new season not impacted in a negative way. Just chill absolutely no need for the panic and vitriol of some on here
  • My mate is getting bored with me asking questions, but got the following this AM. Sounds like the imminent word could be appropriate.

    Sandergaard is in the country so it should be announced soon. As before. Garner is a done deal and they are dotting I's and crossing t's on the other two. Compo debate on going but not miles apart.
    Interesting because that is what Conor is also saying:

  • i’m predicting tomorrow now , my personal feeling is it’s been agreed weeks and hopefully a lot of planning and preparation has already been going on behind the scenes. I know Thomas and his mrs denied claims it’s a done deal but i really think the only reason it wasn’t a done deal was because he wasn’t here in person to sign it all off

    Doesn't take a semi competent league one club 5 weeks to appoint a manager, in the off season.

    As always, it's not a huge conspiracy, just charlton busy bodies whinging while it's in process and Garner has already input his thoughts into recruitment with Gallen and we've been working on that simultaneously. 

    Drama queens a plenty in our fanbase.

    Another thanks Conor 

  • I think she wanted to show via a tipsy night on the wine why the Club does not need a Ceo!

    What’s interesting to me is everyone seems to be giving TS a real hard time over the length of time this is taking, but what if it’s purely down to the swindon mob asking for unrealistic compo? Is TS supposed just pay it and do himself out of a couple of hundred k for no reason , or play the waiting game, I know what i’d do if it was my money 
    Especially when our preparations are already underway and the squad aren't back training yet.
