Please not Warbs.

Who are you hoping for?

An alternative.

Any names that would really excite you?

I think what can be gleaned from this thread is whoever is appointed is unlikely to be universally welcomed 😂

Unless we got Klopp or Pep I can't think of anyone one that would be?

Anyone we are realistically going to get will either have a failer on their CV, lack experience or be taking a big step up in terms of size of club and expectations.

Has anyone mentioned Claus Jensen, done a pretty good job managing a small club in Denmark for the past two years, that may be near the limits of its potential and all the obvious connections. TS must know him - and he does like being popular. 

That’s exactly what we need! Another club legend, untried at this level. 

Although I expect you’re whooshing here?

Like Lee Bowyer and Chris Powell?

Was Bowyer ever a 'Club Legend'

After his racist antics after he left, more a
Leg End. 

And being caught out on dope testing as a yoof player.

Cannabis, ecstasy and packet. Can certainly testify that isn't performance enhancing just in case anyone was wondering...

Going back to around 1966/67 I’d say, an old pal of mine who had come up through the youth team and was playing regularly for the reserves (as it was then), came to grief with the club.
He went down to Brighton or Margate for a weekend away clubbing it with some pals from the Lewisham Mods scene.
Biggest mistake of his life.
He swallowed some Doobs, Purple Hearts (SKF’s), I was never exactly sure of how the info got back to The Valley but sadly for him somehow it did.
Now this fella was clearly looking like he was going to make the grade all the way but he was history in seconds flat.
How times have changed!

Didn't seem to hold Curbishley back. I've seen video evidence of him launching a table through a brighton cafe window  having it with some rockers in '79.

For those readers who might be taking this seriously (I bet there are quite a few), AC had a minor role in Quadrophenia where he is cast as a mod who throws a table through a cafe window in Brighton.
Al’s elder brother Bill of course manages The Who and that was his link to appearing in the movie.

@guinnessaddick & I played football with a lad who had played for England youth with Curbs and showed us a photo of them on the way to a tournament once.

Was informed that Beale will be a non starter as he was not happy that Thomas said he had contacted him in an interview when Adkins left. I can't recall this can anyone verify please? Hoping this is not the case and Beale is a possibility. Thomas has verified to me that he tried to contact Beale last time.

Oops. 

Liam Manning worked for Man City's network for Lommel so a "higher" level perhaps. 

Certainly plays a high pressing, passing style.

And could be out of the play-offs by this evening.

Whether he'd see a move to Charlton as a step up or even wise is a different question 

Warburton would be brilliant but I doubt he would want to join the setup we have in place if it’s true he will have little say on recruitment. Probably rules out most experienced English managers so will probably have to be a young unproven English coach (Beale) or a foreign coach where this model is more common.

Personally would like us to go for a younger L1/L2 manager doing well. Michael Duff would be my choice but Bonner(Cambridge) and Matt Taylor (Exeter) also options. But again they probably have a lot of control at their current clubs so may not wish to join a setup where they have limited say on recruitment 

That sort of manager would be my choice if they could bring their staff, a couple of players, the tea lady and anyone else they wanted with them.

Intriguing that Thomas has said that the club have been ambitious over and above the likes of Michael Beale. I suspect most would feel he’s at the top end of the range probably available to us. Let’s hope Michael doesn’t get to read the comment. 

It’s an article from November before Jackson was made permanent.

🤦🏻‍♂️

Warburton is an arse.
He talks a lot of guff that impresses the media but none of my Glaswegian family were crying into their beer when he got the old heave hoe at Rangers.

I doubt he would want to join a club where he has little say over recruitment, which was why he left Brentford, and I expect he wants to manage in the Champo.

If he does join us, I expect it would be a lot like the Adkins era.
Management speak and ineffectual football.

I would rather see us employing a young coach with a clear plan than seeing one of the same old faces getting the job.

Either way, Sandgaard has to get this right.
I for one am beginning to think Tommy might just be another Duchatelet with a guitar.

Michael Beale is a maybe, but realistically how much is he earning, 20 - 30 k a week? no idea, I can’t believe we can pay him at the moment anything near what he’s on at the moment already, can’t see it happening, even if he does talk a good game.

The fella at MK dons is a possibility if they miss out on promotion, but how much say does he have in things at the moment?

Maybe he didn't get permission but spoke anyway which is why Beale was annoyed when TS mentioned him publicly.

Beale is a former Charlton youth player and has spoken fondly of the club which maybe why he gets talked about so much in these situations.

Not to say that he isn't a very good candidate but that link perhaps means he's mentioned more than other similar coaches.

There doesn't seem to be much leaking to reliable sources like Cawley which suggests, if you're an optimist, that TS is keeping things under wraps or, if you're a golfie, nothing has been done, process hasn't started and we'll get Welling's reserve manager in September.

Linda Lusardi
Samantha Fox

Now or 30+ years ago ?

This is very interesting

Have a look online at the interview he gave after there game yesterday and the comments from QPR fans and i didnt read one bad comment they all speak very highly of him his management and style of play and along side that seems like a very likeable man thats in the league above btw

I think a few people need to have a think about where we are as a club and be more realistic
Warburton would be a class appointment !

Sounds like Adkins. I’ve read what people have said about Warburton and I can see logic in it but he still feels like yesterdays man to me. A young up coming coach in the style of Manning, Russell Martin, Matt Taylor or a Johnnie Jackson would be my pick. 

Him and adkins arent even close mate apart from being likeable he had been out the game a while and last few teams he was at it didnt go or end well

warburton has done very well for 3 years building at QPR from there own fans words bringing together what was a toxic club from top to bottom pretty similar to us atm really and getting them playing good football also on a limited budget
he also had decent success at rangers and brentford 

Not too say a young manager wouldnt work but the more unknown and unproven managers might work against them with sandgaard and also what we need right now we shall see
