    If they do appoint Chris O'Loughlin can the boycotts be called off and a plan to go for the club's jugular put in place? And as for giving him time, sod that!

    I agree, it's time to go for the throat. I don't know who this Irish fella is, but let's not give it "Let's give him a chance". Hes another under qualified network stooge, who will tow the party line and take advice from Mowgli. He knows the score, he sat staring at Brussell's back at the last game.

    CARD should bring the Sheff Utd protests forward to Saturday, and really give to them. The next job is to run the new stooge out of town and really make the club un-manageable, as Airman says.
    Further big, coordinated and sustained protests in Belgium is the way. It appears the B20 have friends in St Truiden who are happy to help, - apparent by the tip off on Saturday

    I feel sorry for KM, she has to try and interview at least 20 applicants and announce the new Head coach within 24 hours, none of you understand the difficult job she does :smiley:

    The club have told the media they would issue a statement at 7pm. It's now 7.15 and still silence. They can't even tell the truth about that!!

    Lol, imagine the smoke coming out of the top of @Ollywozeres eBay typewriter that the club treated him to.......

    Still not confirmed on OS at quarter past 8

    Does their incompetence have any limits?
    Unfortunately no

  • Just a thought, if he was sacked after training this morning how come it took so long for the news to get out ?

    Piecing snippets together from here/Twitter, it sounds like the club were planning on announcing it tomorrow night so this has caught the club on the hop.

    If true -

    Lol...Slade's going to be the man for our future! Hilarious.

    Didn't like Slade's football style but really can't see how any manager would succeed in their toxic environment.

    Silence from the club...probably talking to that PR company on the big announcement not realising that the news is out!

    That's without the 11 fans meetings she has planned.

    We are all under the impression that the lack of an announcement is another cock-up. It could actually be a PR masterstroke to bury bad news by announcing Chris O'Loughlin as the new manager at 3am and hoping nobody notices.

    A statement will be made when the funds are cleared and the listings for Paul Hayes' snood & Martin Cranies undershorts have finished!

    Is it just me or do the two of them look like bad cyborgs from a sub Bladerunner 80s movie?

    Even Blackpool can get out a press release about sacking their manager quicker than this.

    Still not officially confirmed. Kind of tempted to offer my services as a copy writer. I've worked a lot with people whose first language isn't English, suspect it might be needed tonight...

    What and shave off Chris' hair and claim that Slade has gone on a diet and that he's still in charge

  • Didn't O'Loughlin play indoor football? Maybe we are just not seeing the future -Roland is a visionary, after all. Sell the Valley and training ground, move us into the Lib or that big room at the Bugle Horn?

    Probably because Driesen's Championship Manager doesn't have contact numbers.

    Chris O'Loughlin in February 2016. There have been subsequent links to English football with Charlton Athletic touted as a possible destination – links which were dismissed by O’Loughlin as “complete speculation”. He has however admitted that one day he would like to manage in England. “The goal in the future is to go across to England. Why? Because something that can’t be replaced wherever I’ve gone is that football culture. If you grow up on your whole life on a certain type of football culture, of course you want to experience that different type of intensity.”

    The interview here hardly fills me with a belief this is the man to lead us to salvation. http://www.benefoot.net/exclusive-interview-with-sint-truidens-chris-oloughlin/

    No i can't
  • Delighted Slade is gone. I want Charlton back - not a team run by the most negative, anti-football coach I've ever seen! We fight for Charlton, not for English coaches or English players.
  • Didn't O'Loughlin play indoor football? Maybe we are just not seeing the future -Roland is a visionary, after all. Sell the Valley and training ground, move us into the Lib or that big room at the Bugle Horn?

    The indoor footballer was Nobby of Vinegar fame. O'L's football career was at Cliftonville and Larne in Norn Ireland.
