Imagine the comments on here a couple of months ago if it had been announced that Meire would be on a programme called The Bottom Line. Thankfully everyone seems to have grown out of that now.7

good show that, well worth a listen on an average show1

I did pose the question to Katrien last week that they needed to promote and get their views across to the British media, because it wasn't just CAFC fans in the Charlton bubble that were struggling to understand the big picture.
Martin Samuels in the mail and Chris Dunlavy in the Football league paper are just two who have been critical of the network model.
Katrien conceded that they were working on this aspect and i hope this may be another step in this journey.0 -
Is she going eye to eye with Evan Davis ?2

Finished, so, very impressed with our boss lady1
-
She sounded good, but a bit of a shallow program really, but then can't really expect much in depth coverage in 1/2 an hour. Good that we should be included on such a program.
I wonder what Scudamore is texting to his friends about our CEO now.0 -
thought she gave a good representatio of the Football League, so we need £3m from somewhere0
-
We could try selling programmes. That might make a small addition to the income.5

Katreen Myhre! Any relation of Thomas?1
-
On the way home from the studio, was she harangued on the train by an angry Radio 4 listener who wanted Paul Jewell to appear on the programme instead?10

Just listened to it. katrien was very impressive as usual.1
-
Personally I thought she spoke very well , without giving much away.0

Sounds about the right pronunciation to me. Wonder if they checked with her first?Stig said:Katreen Myhre! Any relation of Thomas?

Just listened in. Really impressive & like the way she wants to work hard to plug that £2-3m gap rather than rely on handouts from PL. Came across really well, in good company.AFKABartram said:Can listen back here

My downside from that is the impression that German clubs are moving away from their model of club/fan ownership of 50% + 1 vote.0 -
She came across very well , especially as the general questions were tailored towards the 'big' leagues in the prem and bundasliga... Adapted answers well to fit the need and give an account of the championship as a whole.
Heart sank a little when she said 'it's unlikely for charlton to get to the premier league' but had more optimism regarding the business side to charlton from the last minute or so from her answers.0 -
Very proud of her.
FL is woefully undersold. Did I hear correctly - Bundesliga 2 gets 20% of the German deal ?0 -

Showed Scudamore up for who he is. The game's all about the players, then the managers, we give away a big part of our income (when challenged) yes half of it to relegated clubs.
Thought KM came across pretty well, whilst painting a bleak picture of life in the post-Prem Second tier that won't have impressed Scudamore one bit (good on her). Her answer to the same question about where the value in the game lies was revealing too: competition. A much less businessy answer than Scudamore and one that captures most fans' concerns about the modern game. The Cologne president was also there, and he was politely but similarly critical of the distortion the Premier League introduces.
Scudamore went on to say 4 or 5 clubs who are challenging for top 4 shows how competitive the Prem is, suggesting it was less competitive before when Liverpool were winning everything. Except in that time Arsenal, Everton and Villa also won it, and the point surely is that the latter two no longer have any hope of doing so.
KM came across a lot better than Scudamore, much more in touch with what most people want from the game, not just the top few clubs.8 -

Hardly surprising that fan ownership is declining.TelMc32 said:

Charlton don't have enough fans to lose £12m every season from their own money.0 -
Quiz programme on ITV, on air at 5.00pm during the week.0

This will be int
That was the slant that Evan Davies took on it, and I was very surprised that he did that. In fact, the only new development the Cologne guy mentioned was at Hannover. Leverkusen and Wolfsburg have always been "works" teams. I know that the Hannover proposal prompted huge fan demos across Germany so it would be interesting to get more background on the news that they have apparently won. One possible answer is that the German guy, who spoke well and was very likeable, nevertheless represents what we might call the Scudamore wing of German football.TelMc32 said:

As we will explain in a Trust article on Jena, which should be out today, one of the businessmen who has learnt to live with 50+1 is Roland Duchatelet.
I agree with @rikofold that Katrien stood up well to Scudamore and exposed the financial reality of the Championship to a wider audience. Scudamore himself skillfully concealed what a ***** he is until the final minutes when he said that the lousy state of grass roots football is down to local authorities and it is they who should be spending the money to fix the problem.
But in a short programme that covered a lot of ground, Evan Davies swerved round the elephant in the room. Why is the FAPL allowed to even exist as a separate entity and therefore control all the money when as the Cologne guy mentioned , in Germany it is the German FA which negotiates and distributes the money?
