For me an 18 month contract for Warnock would make sense. You know what you are getting with him. Would be a real step change in quality and experience from anything we have seen in recent appointments.
Actually more than a little surprised he would even consider it.
Not so sure on Jones either. He found some magic at Luton but can that be recreated?

Find the idea of short term with Warnock, when there are
excellent long term options that will allow us to build, a bit silly and the football equivalent of a sugar rush

Warnock on an 18 month deal is just what we need imo, I think Jones could be inspired but also carries a risk of relegation.2

It would be such a dull charlton type appointment. On that basis I expect him to get it.mart77 said:Some might like him but Warburton would a wet fart of a move if it happens. Above Appleton and Lee Johnson but not convinced by him at all!1 -
Every argument is in favour of appointing a longer-term, younger manager, except one, and that isn't the prospect of relegation, which I believe we'd avoid under Jones. No, the one argument is attention. Charlton Athletic would be noticed again, in a context other than 'what happened to those guys'1

He seems keen to stay in the game, so not sure I believe he would turn down a full season.Scoham said:
I’d have thought it’s more that Warnock doesn’t want anything more than a short term role until the end of the season. At least for now.ValleyBen said:If they don't believe Warnock can get us promoted then they need their heads checked, a good manager is a good manager no matter his age.
It's a good position to be in though if those are the main two serious candidates.0 -
I'd rather we didnt sign someone for the short term, only to try and get someone else in the Summer - We need to be thinking about next season now, as well as trying to survive.
Otherwise its potentially another wasted season in League One.
Yes the alternative could be a season or more in League Two... But c'mon, we'll never progress as a Football Club again if we're fearfully looking over our shoulders.4 -
a few years ago I'd have 100% had Warnock, now I think I'd rather have Jones of the two (more longer term vision). Surely Jones can keep this squad up comfortably and then have a real go at it next season?4

I can’t see the sense in it either. Who will be available in May/June that isn’t now? Why would they be any better than the managers available now?Rothko said:Find the idea of short term with Warnock, when there are

As others said if a long term appointment can’t keep us up and do well beyond that then don’t appoint them.2 -

Warnock is the wrong appointment.Just means the cycle starts again in the summer or in a further 12 months.We have enough to stay up.13

A player moved from Larkfield once which I believe is the unbeatable record.AFKABartram said:

I just want out of this league, for me that is more likely under Warnock next season then Jones.
Full support still behind Jones if he gets it though.1 -
On paper undoubtedly. On the pitch is a different story.valleynick66 said:Warnock is the wrong appointment.Just means the cycle starts again in the summer or in a further 12 months.We have enough to stay up.2 -

Based on how our over staffed SMT operate on most other things they’ve probably outsourced the interview/decision making process to an agency.

The longer this drags on the more fearful I get. Dreading a poor appointment and L2.1

As does Warnock or anyone else! He might fail here, just as McCarthy did at Blackpool when brought in to save them last season.charlton_hero said:Warnock on an 18 month deal is just what we need imo, I think Jones could be inspired but also carries a risk of relegation.
I'm not sure we'll get either, and neither would be my first choice, but of those two, I'd prefer Jones.

I don't think we'll get a chance to hire someone like Jones again, we should go for it.45

We need to stop the rot and gain some upward momentum, and very quickly.
A long term, build for the future, type appointment, has no guarantee of working out, and could lumber us with yet another failure, on a long term contract.
Having said that, if Warnock is a serious contender at his age, why the hell isn't Curbs in contention? Out of the game a long time for sure, but he's surely more clued up about Charlton than Warnock is!

When it all goes tits up again for the new manager, as it surely will, I want to enjoy the ability for some amusing protests against them. Neil Warnock and his funny anagramatical name give us the best opportunity for this to happen. Come on, get Colin in.3

‘‘Twas ever thusGribbo said:Even accepting reasonable paranoia caused by previous bad management / ownership, there's a hard-core of about 5 to 10 people on here who will never stop questioning an aspect of the club for one reason or other. IF the new manager comes in and gets a tune out of this squad, setting us up for a decent run at promotion next season, reckon there'll still be some people finding someone or something to criticise, even if it is the colour of a pair of chinos or prejudice bs about their education.
there are some overly obsessed people on this forum, who rather than discuss a managers or any club employees capabilities , would rather focus on their background, education, upbringing, choice of trouser colour or political persuasion, weirdo’s6
