    So how come some clubs sack a manager and appoint a new one the following day. Does that mean the LMA have signed it off before the other is sacked? Sounds rubbish to me.
    Alan Curbishley is part of this group .. basically they don’t work weekends so it will be signed Monday 
    Lancaster Gate there headquarters then?

    To be fair, it’s not a bad thing! All focus needs to be on a decent performance today! The players still know they are being watched by their new gaffer anyway. 
    And they did produce a good performance for him .. Fleming said he was pleased and surprised by a what he saw 
    On the basis that anything he does will be an improvement?

    I know some are jokey, but I don’t get the comments about him regretting it, being mad to take the job etc. Managers are egotistical, love a challenge and always want to be the person who turns a club’s fortunes around. He’ll be watching, first of all knowing he can’t do much worse and secondly knowing that all he needs is a couple of wins to be an instant hero.
    Yep, he knows he has a reasonable squad that are underperforming. He will be confident that he will turn this around.

    i reckon you can get better odds on derby going up than us going down but they didn't carve us open at will and create chance after chance.

    jones will only be feeling low if he has created a Charlton life account today! I reckon that he believes he will get us 16th or above  

    You can get 5/1 on us finishing top half
    You can get 9/1 on us being relegated

    My prediction is that he will be announced by the club today at 14:50.
  • Is Jones definitely a ‘done deal’?

    Feels very ominous the lack of official announcement.
  • Blokes a magician if he can plug the holes in our defence which is exactly what he’s going to need to do. I think he’ll keep us up but it’s going to the wire I think.

    If Jones actually gets in the door and kicks some arse then 5/1 sounds a good bet...🙄

    Top half ! ! ! 
    I think survival by the skin of our teeth is just about doable. 
    Our March fixtures should see us safe, on the basis that jones can get an under achieving squad to get their heads out of their arses and perofrm

    Four aways in six games will not make for an easy month.

    Tbf it wouldn’t matter if we were at home anyway.
  • Surely the LMA thing is NJ's choice? It's his trade union! He would have signed, what, 4 manager's contracts in 8 years. He's hardly going to be an expert in up to date employment contracts is he? He needs an expert to look at what he is being offered. (I suspect particularly the performance targets in his period of probation.)
  • Blokes a magician if he can plug the holes in our defence which is exactly what he’s going to need to do. I think he’ll keep us up but it’s going to the wire I think. 
    There's enough combinations there to make some kind of improvement, surely?

    imagine watching yesterdays match and thinking “yeah, I’ll have some of that”. Must like a challenge 
    and/or a pound note.

    I thought it had already been signed & it was waiting for clearance from the LMA. 

    More back tracking.

    They can’t announce him until the legal papers get signed of by LMA .. deal all done

    blimey didn’t thank I’d have to clarify that this wasn’t a fully serious comment

    don’t think it would be signed without LMA approval, otherwise there’s no point them getting involved

    Has to target the next two for six points. Then try to get a point or two against Bolton, Pompey and Derby. If he can do that, say, 6-8 points across those games, I think we’ll be safe.
