Our next manager at the game today?

Colin 1961 - I take it you have no interest in success returning to the club then. Not for me I'm afraid. Curbs would have us back in the Premiership within 3 years. His record speaks for itself. And please don't give me any guff about having been out of the game for 6 years. Like swimming you don't forget how to manage effectively with the passage of time. He knows good players from bad and knows how to set teams up. I pray common sense prevails and he returns to his rightful home.

Much as I loved Curbs, I don't think even he could perform the miracle we need with the current resources. Besides, he probably wouldn't come even if the job was offered to him. Curbs lived and breathed the Club, he had a say in so many parts of the day to day stuff at the club, I can't see him wanting to come back when he wouldn't even get a say in which players come in and which leave.

I'd like Curbs in charge on his own terms. That is not gonna happen.

I want Curbs to buy the club!!!!

Cmon Richard Murray, give Curbs a call please.

I have Chinese connections, and I don't want Mackay because of his two faced racist distain for Vincent Tan who was his meal ticket and funded whatever scant success he has had so far.

So that rules out the second favourite (Di Canio)n the betting as well. So it has to be Curbs then.

Mate spoke to malky in the bar today sent me this when I asked if he spoke to him " I did, had a good chat, basically said he'd take either job, ours or Brentford. . Came over as a nice guy, with his lad - we agreed u need players who know this league - that's still the problem
Whoever comes in. . Need 5 players minimum "

Was never Luzon's biggest fan, but if Mackay is appointed then giving him seats in the directors' box on the day that the bloke was fighting to hold on to his job really lacks class.

In July 2012, Cardiff signed South Korean international Kim Bo-kyung, but when Moody informed Mackay on July 12 that ‘five of the b******s including the player’ were arriving for talks, the reply from Mackay’s phone was: ‘Fkn chinkys.’ A further message says: ‘Fk it. There’s enough dogs in Cardiff for us all to go around.’
In reference to the prominent football agent, Phil Smith, a text states: ‘Go on, fat Phil. Nothing like a Jew that sees money slipping through his fingers’. The Israeli club, Maccabi Tel Aviv, are also referred to simply as ‘the Jews’.

A football official at another club is referred to as ‘a gay snake’ and ‘the homo’ and someone who is ‘not to be trusted’, while a French player is someone ‘who struck me as an independently minded young homo’.

An exchange with a young player who has a female agent makes reference to a sex act and states: ‘I hope she’s looking after your needs,’ the player is then told. ‘I bet you’d love a bounce on her falsies.’

On August 16, 2012, a list of players proposed by a French agent is forwarded, stating to Mackay that ‘he needs to rename his agency the All Blacks’. A separate text in reference to a list of French players states: ‘Not many white faces amongst that lot but worth considering.’

In a separate exchange a picture entitled ‘Black Monopoly’ is sent, with every square a ‘Go To Jail’ square. Of one African player, it is stated: ‘Doesn’t look like a good cv. And he’s Nigerian.’

Yes x1000 to Curbs.

Mackay being there today was odd - Carsley has been given the manager's job until the end of the season with Brentford so I doubt he was there for that position...

Mackay is a no go. Charlton value their community/ kick it out work too highly to appoint a guy who , if not definitively a racist, has such a history with racial comments . He was also horrendous at Wigan

Not read the previous, of course he is not going to be the next manager.

I realise Colin1961/BexleyBoy will be able to put a case forward, but unless I have missed something Malkay(who I happen to think would be a good appointment in normal circumstances) is a Brit and with total experience from this side of the water so he does not qualify.
