    In all honesty, if that was you only dealing with him your comment seems OTT to me, to put in a public forum. He may well have simply forgot.

    I asked him several times. Then after that there was a separate thing, which I'll just summarize as the "Czech talent scout " project, which I put a lot of work into. I won't go into it here, but I'll be happy to remind him, if he has forgotten that too. If an idea doesn't fly, fine. There are ways though of setting ideas aside, the classy way, and the other way, especially when people are doing things for free. That was probably the biggest mistake in dealing with him. If we had both said, sure Bob, we can help on this, our going rate is £300 an hour, we might have had a different response.

    and the reason why I am still going on about it after so long is that my buddy reminds me about it virtually every time we talk about Charlton. To him it's evidence that I was naive about how great a club Charlton, and the people running it, was then. That both pisses me off and hurts at the same time. So yes it's an ugly word, but it was ugly behaviour, and I'd happily tell him face to face why I wrote about it.

    As it happens we are planning on meeting up in Bourgas in summer and hoping to drop in on Kishi when we do, so I might get a refresher of the whole saga, and write it all up. There's the whole separate chapter with West Ham and Redknapp to tell, if he is ok with telling of course. If I recall rightly, RW was due to meet Kishi off the plane at Heathrow, but Mr Ganchev The Wrestler was playing a double game, and Redknapp managed to whisk Kishi away through a VIP exit. But Kishi arrived injured, and when he discovered that, Redknapp just left him stranded in some hotel. None of that was RW's fault, but it was my buddy who tracked Kishi down and got him back on track with RW. It really was quite a saga, and agents are paid thousands to sort that kind of shit out. As RW knew well, and that's my point. If people offer themselves up as useful idiots because they love their club ( or their mate's club) you could at least thank them, rather than just shove their useful idiocy back in their faces.
    He don't sound like a very good buddy to me, Prague.
    He's actually gone a bit alt.right politically since he emigrated. Hope that helps you warm to him.

    Getting back to the current plight of our club, I guess as of now LB has departed and we have JJ holding the fort. If there is a buyer out there then surely it makes sense for the buyer and RD to get the sale completed asap so the club can prepare for next season.
    It just doesn’t make sense to delay unless of course there isn’t a buyer still there.

    Gerard Murphy wouldn’t have been at the match if there was no buyer.

    Am I the only one who's completely confused? For starters who the hell is this kishi bloke? Relation to Kashi? Cos after googling the name i can't believe we're talking about a dead Japanese prime minster from the 1950s.

    Basically Prague and ‘Bob’ had a little Kissi nearly 20 years. Not sure if they were sitting in a tree. Anyhow, post-Kissi Bob never returned Prague’s calls. Probably ignored him when his pager beeped as well. Prague appears still bitter at the whole episode and probably stalks Bob’s Facebook and Instagram hoping to see pictures that show that Bob’s really let himself go.

    Basically, it started with a Kish, but I never thought it would come to this.

    Think that’s it.
    Ah I see, unrequited love. Well we've all been there. Feel your pain Prague.

    Bob W very kindly donated a whole set of the Ecru shirts to CIFC (the old supporters team back in the day).

    Am proud to say that we did our bit to minimize climate change in using the absolute minimum amount of energy, water and detergent, utilizing a years ahead of it’s time eco-strategy of never washing them.

    One word for this whole takeover saga.......farce!!!

    If a deal has been agreed and signed I would have expected an announcement yesterday seeing as our league 1 status had been confirmed for another year on Sunday. I get the feeling there are going to be a few more twists and turns along the way!

    I am going to state something very obvious but could be quite significant?

    I don't think its a coincidence they are all wearing Charlton ties? (red and white)

    Something is definetly about to happen.. with the public showing at the home game, and the red ties sitting in the directors box at Shrewsbury.

    I think the time has come, hopefully this week... maybe already has. just waiting for EFL to do fit and proper and bob's your uncle prehaps?

    Murphy isn’t wearing a Charlton tie.
    Neither is the mystery man, or Bernie. Not sure Murray is either unless there's a special tie for former Chairmen?
    I think that is a Charlton tie

    image
    I only wear the away tie
    I only wear the CARD black and white protest tie to matches
    Isn't this a bit cold for a winter sport?

    Pearce talks about needing the takeover frog go to through soon and signing experienced players in the summer.

    Takeover frog?
    Wasn't aware of the french interest Scoham.
    Hopefully it will now come on leaps and bounds and the whose process hasn't croaked :wink:
