    Surely Paul Hart would have been a better interim appointment until we got the right appoitnment. Oh that's right, it's a lunatic asylum at the club right now. BTW I hope Hart stays, he's vital to the Academy. At least that's still a shining beacon at the club!!

    I have a horrible feeling this will be Les Reed 2.

    Never heard of him, but my starting position is that he is an utterly useless 'see you next tuesday', and it will remain so unless he can persuade me inch by inch moment by moment otherwise.
    I will certainly not support him because I am loyal to Charlton, he will have to prove himself every moment of every day otherwise I will be heaping the vitriol on him at every match I attend and at every opportunity.
    OK Roland, first challenge starting tomorrow is to win every remaining match this season, and even then you're still the carpetbagger who has foreclosed the farm, and is standing there grinning and chewing your cigar whilst our sad belongings are loaded up on a cart.
    Nice to meet you Jose Riga, just want to start off by saying I don't know you, but I hate you.

    Joined Inter Milan last October to develop a training system called CogiTraining. By understanding how the brain works young players will learn better. Whether this method can be adapted for clueless owners is unclear.

    One of the best posts I've seen on CL.

    That seems a bit harsh. It's not his fault Roland sacked Sir Chris. Surely you should give the guy a chance to screw it up before you start to hate hime.

    To be honest I'm happy Hart stays where he is rather than be used as the excuse for a failure to turn results around. He's doing a brillaint job with the Academy.

    Well and truly up the creek now without a paddle in sight. Who the hell is this Jose Riga anyway? Probably a "yes" man.
    So, he trained Corgi's did he??? Should help.

    A yes man surely? Seeing Hamer on the bench will be the final straw for me.

    I do hope you are being ironic. Whether I agree with Powell going and Riga replacing him is immaterial. I am a CHARLTON supporter and will carry on supporting CHARLTON no matter who the Manager is. Always have always will.

    Corgi trained then? At least we'll save on the plumbers bill if the boiler in the changing rooms goes tits up.

    Joke ownership ATM. I fear for OUR club.

    Will he be the first in Charlton history to be roundly booed at his first game in charge?

    Even if the club becomes a shop window / dumping ground for the failed gambles of a dickhead businessman?

    At what point do Charlton become just Liege / Carl Zeiss / Ujpest B? Not a wind up but a genuine question
