    I work with a Cardiff supporter and he came to commiserate with me this morning. He was not liked there for the awful style of football. Still he has experience at L1 level so we ought to give him a chance.

    Tony Watt is happy - well he "liked" the Tweet anyway.

    If the appointment of a trusted British coach with full team control is the new era what do we call the post Powell period?

    And whatever it's called can I have a refund please ?

    What utter tossers this lot are. ..

    This.

    Slade is the british manager with league experience we've been asking for, even if he is about as uninspiring as they come. Small step in the right direction but the legacy of the last few years means I will never be able to support this board.

    And straight in at top of the ITK charts must be 'DOUCHER' - might even celebrate this highly esteemed position by changing my name back to Bexley Dan - never been comfortable with this new name. I'll be revealing whether we will be staying in or out of Europe next week so stay tuned!!

    Didn't you say two year contract, English and ex-player. So 1 out of 3. : - )

    No I didn't, as I pointed out previously, Scoham or somebody said that - you can check that if you want to trawl back over the thread Henry - there's no shame in you not being ITK Henry and I'm really not in the business of pretending to be - that would be a bit sad wouldn't it?

    “Russell has vast experience in the division and is a two-time League One Manager of The Year. He joins us as Manager on a long-term contract and his appointment represents the start of an exciting new era at the club under his guidance.”

    but when asked for more detail you quoted Scoham's post saying two years, ex-player and English:smile:

    No shame in not being in the know, bit sad pretending to be though I agree ; - )

    Tony Watt has just moved back into the club house he had when playing for Charlton so don't be surprised to see him playing for Russell Slade's team this coming season. I can only assume Slade stipulated he wanted him as part of the deal ?

    Incorrect Henry - I knew the length of contract (but didn't state it), I knew the level of experience and where he was from within reason. To try and argue that I said he had a 2 year contract would only make you look silly because I never did and never implied that in any way. Why is it so important to you? Now that seems a bit sad.

    Got to get back to work now but please do try and find where I said that Henry because it will be entertaining when I log back on later - will help with the boredom of a Monday night.

    Why so touchy? Didn't you the smiley :smiley:

    as you said you didn't state the length of contract or level of experience or where he was from so surprised to then see you claiming that you were the new Colin. Can't have it both ways another similey in case you haven't realised you were getting your leg, gently, pulled : - :smile:

    My Oh My, How Does It Feel? Should we All Join Hands? Do You Believe In Miracles? Is Russell Slade The Shape Of Things To Come? What made him think 'In For A Penny, I'm gonna Get Down And Get With It at Charlton'? After meeting roly &/or squirrel face why didn't he think 'Take Me Bak Ome, I need to be Far Far Away?' Is he Nobody's Fool, why didn't he Run Runaway? We'll tell him 'Give Us A Goal', he'll tell us 'You Boys Make Big Noize' but by November will it be Still The Same?
    Russell should know that while roly and his lickspittles remain We Won't Give In and if they stay We'll Bring The House Down.
    Welcome Russell, good luck. Let's hope there's a decent and successful interval before you hear "Come in number 7 your time is up."

    Hopefully, Meire will be there to confirm that Slade will have full control over all footballing matters and to announce her resignation with immediate effect.

    Watt has lived in the royal arsenal for ages. He regularly puts photos up on Instagram of himself on the balcony looking out at the Thames

    I'll take that. A few Orient fans on Twitter seem jealous that we landed him. Hopefully a step in the right direction

    Oh excellent, all is well with the world.
