He was looking out for the sniper KM brought there in case he says the wrong thing.Todds_right_hook said:The question about tex, it sounded like tessara, I didn't get it at first either.
When asked about transfers, Ho looked up towards the directors box twice. Don't know why or what this means but it was the only two times he looked up there8 -

Sounds like that you trying to get out buying the beers you promised!ricky_otto said:Not seen Slades interview and won't bother. It's all a load of old bollocks. Even at his first interview when he said something along the lines of "I'll have a say in players that come in" I switched off. The bloke was duped. He may well have a say in the Ajose deal, but we know that Holmes and Novak were linked or in talks before he signed up to manage.
I'd like to say I feel sorry for him....but I don't. Anybody who manages this club under the current ownership is a fool.
Even the most optimistic of supporter must realise this club is only going one way. 6 days before the start of the season and were poncing about in the transfer market. Still at least the excuses are in place.
I'm in Manchester next weekend for a wedding and have a ticket for bury, but I seriously don't think I can be arsed to use it,
NOTHING will ever change for the better whilst the Belgians are in town.0 -

So if we lose on a penalty shoot out in a competition this season, we can expect to be in the next round. Penalty shoot outs obviously don't count in Russell's world. He's even lying himself now. If you can't beat them Russ....join them .

I'll say it again. Tex is injured. He told me so.throughthickandthin said:Question about Tex
He so clearly lied about the injury
What he meant to say was
"Yeh Louis I don't expect the lad to be a Charltom player come the end of the week"
If he's on his way out, why was he signing autographs with the rest of the players, after the game?4 -
Totally not true. Queues were out the door and it was a really successful and lovely time.T said:I think all the more embarrassing was the players meet and greet footage pushed out by the media team after the game. Genuinely more players that fans there by about 2:1
Still at least next season those that don't agree with the protests can sit there without being disturbed... By anyone.
Staff worked really hard to organise this event (including me who organises the Player Appearances) so please don't undermine the hard work we do and plan to continue doing this season.

silly us, of course, if you are leaving then your writing hand suddenly packs up. What he should have said was 'sorry, I can't, I'm signing for FC Porto on Tuesday'East_Stand_Loopy said:

Tracey, fair play to you coming on here and actually stating facts with regards yesterday. When I walked past there was a large queue waiting to get in. Thank you and the players for organising the event which is great for the kids.Tracey said:@The Red Robin
That's your opinion
If you knew me you would not say that.
Unfortunately, you have a large number on here that will take every opportunity to slag the club off whatever they do!7 -

Thank you. Means a lot. I always remember bringing my kids watching their Dad play and feeling what an amazing family club it was. All of us I am sure want to bring that feeling back again. We are working hard to do that.Essex_Al said:

There is likely to be a few decent people left at the club, doing something for the kids is good. But you know what will really help the kids ? Having a team that kids in the playground are not embarrassed by.Tracey said:

How many kids will end up wanting to support WHU / Arsenal or Chelsea due to the shambles and embarrassment of the squad that's in place at Charlton ? Having a decent, respected, well run club is what will best entertain the kids and the rest of us. A team that we can all be proud of.

I was not aware of the meet and greet initiative until after the game, I am sure my son would be have been delighted to be involved.
How was the event publicised? I do not use Twitter, I occasionally visit the club official site...
Last couple of years I bought the season tickets but had them sent to the ex-wife's address, do I need to update my contact details with the club and if so anyone any ideas how?
We may not turn up to everything but it would be nice to know what is going on in case we are available as Roo still loves Charlton.0 -

A well organised event, all around.
And the players and manager willing to give time for photos and autographs to all. Kids seemed to be thoroughly excited by the whole thing.
Was that your old man I saw at the door as I was leaving? I should have got his autograph, too!3 -

I wasn't there yesterday and won't in the near future because of KM but that doesn't mean that those who work for her are as bad as her. People like Tracey seem to be going the best they can and we shouldn't vilify them just because of their boss.
Thanks Tracey5 -
Agreed, but Tracey, remember this site is monitored by the club and someone might umbrage to you mixing with us rebellious types.lancashire lad said:I wasn't there yesterday and won't in the near future because of KM but that doesn't mean that those who work for her are as bad as her.
