    Has Warnock taken a job yet? Warnock with JJ as his number 2 for a couple of seasons.

    From below average Belgians to below average Englishman.

    How many promotions has Russell Slade got from League One?

    I hope it's not today. I want my thread to remain a sticky for more than a couple of days.

    Just told a non-Charlton supporting mate it looks likely to be Slade: 'They haven't got a clue have they?'

    Russell Slade nailed on to implement RD and KMs plan to make us the Leyton Orient of the south-east. There'll be a Leyton Orient-shaped gap in the market following Wet Spam's theft of their homeland.

    CAFC to be renamed Charlton Orient.

    Dont worry Canters... Live long knowing that you at least remembered to put the "+++" symbol in the Thread title... The other sticky (Transfer Rumours) really is lacking the imagination that you created

    Yes and the word official adds legitimacy to something I made up!

    If it is Russell Slade, he'll be used to trying to motivate players who are playing in a three quarter empty stadium

    Hate to say it but Slade must be like Dowie in the sense that he's damned good in Interviews!!

    He's been a Manager at eight clubs and has never won anything...

    How he got from Leyton Orient to Cardiff is beyond me, plus if he is appointed I hope we dont finish in the Play-Offs, three times he's got to Wembley (Grimsby / Yeovil / Leyton Orient) and has lost every time

    If it is Slade, he'll have gone from Orient to Cardiff to Charlton. A UK tour of barmy owners. #cafc

    I would prefer Slade instead of Adkins or Davies but any of the three would be much better then I thought we may get under this lot.

    All three will struggle for true success under our Belgian overlord but they will all have enough about them to keep us from slipping in to the fourth tier for the first time in our history whilst Roland edges towards selling up to a proper owner.

    Not a dig at all, as I am no expect in this area, by why Slade over Adkins or Davies? They have both proved to be successful in the past and have promotions on their CVs where as Slade just seems to be a nearly man.

    Slade had got clubs "punching above their weight" ie Yeovil and Orient and he's not spent fortunes doing it either. He's built decent sides on small budgets.

    Can't say I'm excited but I can see why he's attractive to this regime for the reasons above.

    But when it's on the OS

    Davies is the most likely to not stick it out, when his and the regimes insanity clashes, we really need someone who will see out the entire season if we are going to stay up next season under the current madness.

    Adkins because I think he is on the down with his career, not done well at all since Southampton and I would argue that any half decent manager could have achieved back to back promotions with that the money and exceptional talent for that level they had in the squad, neither of which he will have here.

    Slade may not be flash or exciting but that is the last thing we need right now, simply for me he did a great job as recent as last season in a tier above us so he is the best choice out of the three.

    None of them would be even in my top five though but those are the three we seem to be interested in.

    So Mr Slade, perhaps you could tell us about some trophies and achievments of yours at previous clubs?

    er......well......er....

    Okay, and how did you manage your Budget?

    I persuaded some players to play for free. Others took a wage cut after three months and another every time we lost imporant games. We had the cheapest squad in the league!

    The job is yours, can you start in mid august?
