    Here's  the type of manager we need.

    Winner, at ease with Royalty
    Someone with a monstrous god-like apparition hovering large, behind?
    He's not a god

    It always amazes me the difference a Manager can make look at Eddie Howe and Newcastle they are a different team under him and it isnt like they have had the chance to spend mega bucks yet but they looked odds on for relegation this year. For me he wins Manager of the season. Forest is another example along with Spurs. All proof the worth of getting the Manager that suits the squad
    No way should Howe get manager of the year. 

    he spent a lot of money and all he had to do was tell them to stop playing shit.  They had a number of decent players underperforming because of the shit manager

    steve Bruce is about as good as Iain dowie these days and he zapped any momentum they had.  He’s an atmosphere hoover of a man
    Rubbish comment about Howe. He has done wonders and worked his arse off.
    I’m not denying he’s a good manager but no way is he manager of the year

    Marcelo Bielsa?
    Stop it. Although if he’s realistic and available he’s easily first choice 
    Somebody stake out the local B & Q to see if anyone in a Charlton tie buys a red plastic bucket.

    No thanks, anyone that needs a translator to talk to the players is a no from me.

    He would start on Monday, most of the players would be injured by Tuesday, the rest by Wednesday.

    Except he can speak perfectly good English. Just like Pochettino could. It’s just the press he won’t speak to in English.

    Eddie Howe is the manager in the Premier that has most improved a Team. Wilson stays fit for 3/4 of the games next season, and Saint Maximin, Bruno Guimaraes, Trippier, with the 4 new big signings then you should see a top 8 finish for the Geordies.

    Graham Potter is the manager in the Premier that plays attractive passing football but without a striker that can score 15-20 goals they will always struggle to win at home unless they play Man United on a very poor day.

    Manager of the Year ? 

    I will let you know when Pep or Jurgen do a season at Norwich next time they yo-yo back to the Premier. It's more of a handicap race for the likes of Dean Smith and it's too heavy a load to carry.

    Well it would be our most ridiculous appointment ever by far, and we've had Karel Fraeye as manager.
    Agreed entirely .  But would it be a surprise ?

    Frankly yes. If that was the idea, TS could have had it done a week ago.

    Is Howe a good manager I think most people would say he is.

    Could Howe have achieved what he has in the game if he hadn't had Russian/Saudi backing.  Probably not.

    Both things can be equally true.

    I thought  he spent a year or two doing sod all after Bournemouth.  That was Russian  money.  Now he is using Saudi dosh . It is true that early on he had no real cash but that changed years ago.

    Could you afford to take two years off ?
    Sorry, I don't get the relevance of him having time off after Bournemouth when discussing his ability as a manager?

    Why are managers in the premiership being spoke about on a thread created to speak about the next potential Charlton boss? 
    Because everyone is bored senseless and the season hasn't even finished yet, wait until next week!

    CL is amazing, but you all regularly go off on more tangents than a GCSE Maths lesson 😂😂😂

    Sounds like Taylor is getting closer to getting the nod - reckon he's at least had an interview. Would probably be cheaper than Beale and Warburton too.

    Talking about plans for next seasons squad for Exeter. Either the interview is old or he isn't joining us in the next day or so.

    I reckon that interview is about a week old, particularly since their retained list was posted around a week ago. This would have been part of the media event the day or so after.

    A lot can happen in a week, and we may not have made contact at that point.

    Because there wouldn't be any posts as Sandgaard is interviewing and all the candidates have been mentioned with opinions about them: pro and cons.

    I know more about Mark Warburton and Michael Beale than I do about guys I have known for decades.

    Please add new information on anyone that hasn't been mentioned ?

    Yes 100%. TS has been naive, has over promised and made mistakes, but he’s never going to put his son in as manager. Leading analytics is completely different from managing the team.

    Marcelo Bielsa 

    We’ve got a fabulous academy for him to work with.

    His teams play attacking football.

    The Valley would be full.

    The club teams he has managed have always been a challenge for him, which he obviously thrives on.

    He would fully understand and buy into the Addicks story.

    Pretty much the whole football world loves him.

    Has the club still got that lovely apartment in Docklands?

    Done deal……

    Matt Taylor is checking the amount of money available on wages, transfers next season in League 1 with Exeter compared to what he have been told by Sandgaard.

    Also Charlton critics will be on his back if Charlton finish 8th where Exeter will give him the freedom of the City if Matt finished in that position for the Devon club.

    Only speculation still, but odds on now does mean a lot.

    Henry Irvine on his way to say you know What !
