    So he had a sit down with the media team and gave an excuse? Really strange comment to make and situation in general, knowing our luck it really is a coincidence.
    Perhaps he was playing them a bit, the move isn't linked to any involvement but he may become involved soon...

    First comment I’ve made on this thread (I think). Surely this is just too much of a coincidence? Why would he call it a day at this point rather than wait until the end of the season to step down and complete a proper handover? I'm hopeful!

    I’m the complete opposite. I really do think this is unconnected.

    Ebbsfleet thrashing by Bromley, Varney's local team, on live TV was the final straw. He was sacked. FACT

    Without being funny, I hope I’m right!

    Hmm I see. Do they mean there's no future involvement for ebbsfkeet with cafc. Is there any now?

    Why would they be in a position to say that Varney will have no future involvement with cafc? Surely that's for him to decide and say?

    Whatever this means, I can't see Peter Varney running Charlton. He is 63 I believe, not 'past it' in any way but it could be something that wouldn't appeal now, and maybe actually running Charlton is a job for a younger person.

    According to the second tweet it was Varney himself who distanced himself from any future association with cafc.

    As a fanatical Ebbsfleet fan i am gutted by this news. If he comes to Charlton that's great as we have a fan on board, but pissed off he has left Ebbsfleet in any case. I spoke to his sister many times when we were protesting outside the west stand to get him on board and she said i hope he does.

    "We're not commenting any further on this story other than to say that there is no future involvement with CAFC. "


    And that's because Red Bull have already changed our name to RB Morden Wharf!

    Way too much of a coincidence
  • Since we are getting carried away, Varney, Powell & Curbs holding aloft the real Scarfy, make it happen. :-)
