As far as tangents to threads go, I think it’s exceptional!!, the perm may be the secret to world peace, there hasn’t been a Barney on here for three pages!!🤣
Ok, great perms from memory lane, but can we get this back to topic please. Even if that means you have to hold your tongue and not post here until something actually happens. If you’re at loose ends, there’s always our long running and incredibly informative porn thread. If you don’t know what or where that is, then my bad… it’s a typo.
Oh for the days of Martin Robinson when my Charlton world simply revolved around whether or not he was in the starting 11. Thank you for belatedly and rightly adding him to the perm list.
Oops, sorry @LoOkOuT, our posts crossed and I know nothing on the real topic.

I can never get past the first page of the porn thread!!😬💦
I mean it's not impossible Martin/Thomas Sandgaard found that list of stats Swindon finished top of and based it off that. The ownership isn't subtle. But then again I don't necessarily think that was a bad way of going about (part of) the search - he'd still have had to interview and go against other candidates etc
So we assume we approached Swindon and that Garner / his agent didn’t put themselves forward after he sacked JJ?
I can’t help but wonder who else is offering suggestions to TS on the football side even if informally.
I like TS and appreciate everything he has done for the club, but If we are really haggling over 10s of thousands of pounds and that is the hold up we are in trouble and he needs to get a grip
Imagine having a go at someone for not just binning off tens of thousands of quid of his own money because you want the manager to start two days earlier in a period where the players are on holiday. THROW THE AMOUNT OF YOUR MONEY I CHOOSE AT MY HOBBY MUSIC MAN
It's completely true what you say, and as Garner has already been effectively "working" before he gets officially unveiled the delay hasn't mattered, but negotiating for 3 weeks over 80k does show the financial position we are in.
If we don't get promoted in the next couple of years I can see TS trying to jump ship, and then we really will be in trouble, because I can't see many candidates signing up for an 8m loss every year.
It seems perfectly reasonable that some fans are getting a bit agitated by this protracted long drawn-out Garnerian Saga. Or perhaps Saandgardian Saga? After all, we have, in recent seasons, really been behind in preparing well for preseason and hitting the ground running when the season has started. Here we have an opportunity for a fresh start for s new gaffer with plenty of time to bring in the right faces EARLY and assemble FIRST CHOICE signings to be really well-prepared for August. But we are fluffing our lines again. To be in mid June and not even have a manager in place is really asking for trouble. Assuming Sandgaatd didn't just ditch JJ based on the Portman Road stunning, he must have not only had candidates lined up already but was in significant discussion with at least some of them,? As time hurtles on I tend to agree with those addicks who have Said that TS is simply operating in his role as owner of CAFC as he does his Medical equipment business. Football, he should know by now, is like no other business.
