Just find it totally bizarre to give him tomorrow night. The atmosphere is going to be absolutely toxic especially if we go one down early, was very certain we'd have heard something this morning.
Toxic? I expect hardly anyone will turn up. Could be the lowest league attendance in years.
the next storm off the rank is due to hit this area around 6pm tomorrow night - 40-50mph winds, gonna be a horrible evening in more ways than one
Talk about him being given Tuesday's game as a make or break...don't get it, "One game does not a season make"..either he is gone today, or we may as well give up the optimism, he's here for the foreseeable...🙄
Charlton’s twitter account have just posted about tomorrow’s game….so I can only assume that anyone saying that Appleton has been sacked is sadly incorrect.
Don’t ask me why but I’m match day sponsor tomorrow. Will be Interesting to try and gauge the atmosphere within the lounges/directors box. What time is the pre match presser normally released the day before a game?
Asked my sparrows lane contact if MA is there today and that was at 8 am - Read it and no reply.
I’m clutching at straws a little and think surely it would have been easier to say yes so based on that I’d be amazed if he is there taking training/in charge tomorrow.
If he's gone, that Burton game is going to haunt him. Why on earth did he keep his new defenders on the bench and start his leaky old ones and think anything would be different.
The atmosphere will be toxic regardless of the attendance figures. The hardcore who always turn up, come rain or shine, are among the most passionate & vocal in our fanbase. They will support the team up to a point but Appleton will be booed from the get go.
Seems pretty certain that he's gone, the question is why on earth haven't they announced it yet?
Maybe they're looking to announce who the new manager is at the same time. Maybe they're waiting on a signage guy to replace Michael Appleton with Duff on the managers office door.

Maybe he wanted out and that was his was to solve his problem, 'fraid we were the collateral damage..

I thought it was the reaction after the second goal was the killer. I felt that if we kept losing and we were really competitive in a defeat then he might be okay, but to have Ladapo on the pitch and just collapse to a 2-0 defeat was the nail in the coffin. Got to go out swinging the punches at least.

Hoping this is the case. Would be nice to avoid days of speculation as to who is replacing him.

I hope there is indeed a quick announcement and not a 3-week process followed by the announcement of another uninspiring journeyman.

I would imagine it’s with lawyers and all has
to be dealt with before official announcement.

Hopefully they can look at a case against Appleton for impersonating a football manager whilst they are at it.
His getting the sack has been on the cards for weeks. Hopefully Scott has been sounding out possible new manager's. Very unprofessional if he hasn't
The problem with that is, if you want to look professional, do you give a manager the window then sack him and bring a manager in who can rightfully claim down the line these were not his players? In one window, maybe, but two consecutive ones?
He has gone, he was told on Saturday night, the set up for the next few games was arranged yesterday, it hasn't been announced yet, is because of legal stuff!
I have reconfirmed 3 or 4 times with different sources, and same answer every time..

Thanks Dubai, I'm assuming Fleming and Pearce for now?
