I don't get that oneRichard J said:I have never been itk in my life ,but I have just been told by my wife's best friend that her daughter in law is the best friend of the wife of the next Charlton manager...... Michael Appleton.
This is either top knowledge or I could look very stupid in the morning.
I have posted it in good faith not to wind anyone up6 -
The odds appear to be chicken tikka masala with poppadum on appleturnover (sorry not very good as this)1

Logged on to see 100s of comments, but no real update. The manager saaga continues8

My takeaway from all this is that Richard J genuinely believes he has a scoop that it is Appleton.5

Let's do the old Henry the 8th jobRichard J said:I have never been itk in my life ,but I have just been told by my wife's best friend that her daughter in law is the best friend of the wife of the next Charlton manager...... Michael Appleton.
This is either top knowledge or I could look very stupid in the morning.
Portsmouth resigned (to take the Blackpool job)
Blackpool resigned (to take the Blackburn job)
Blackburn sacked
Oxford prompted from League 2, two pizza cup finals. Resigned for a job at Leicester.
Leicester City (coach then care taker) 18 months after they won the prem, left when the new manager brought in his own staff.
Did a little spell as caretaker at WBA.
Lincoln City, replacing Cowley ironically, seeming left under "good terms" at the end of the season. Got in the play offs I think.
Blackpool (again) inherited an awful squad, signed a 4 year deal 🙄 sacked after 6 months and they went down anyway.
It's not a career of serial failer, he is a bit of a joke because he worked for Portsmouth, Blackpool and Blackburn, who were the basket case clubs of the day, in quick succession.
He hasn't really done anything note worthy either.
If he was appointed I wouldn't be celebrating but I wouldn't cry myself to sleep either.
Unless we appoint a genius of ungodly proportion, or a complete muppet, we will finish 8-12.

Even though Des is in Mumbai, I hope he’s in the mix5

Thanks @Weegie Addick.Weegie Addick said:My takeaway from all this is that Richard J genuinely believes he has a scoop that it is Appleton.
The reason I posted it is because my source doesn't particularly like football, but knows I am a fanatical Addick. After all Appleton isn't a household name outside the football community.
As I say above I know I could be heading for pelters and could deservedly appear on @Dazzler21's.wall of shame.4 -

Gosh!Covered_End_Lad said:Reminds me of an old job I had, a lad called Josh used to bring in curry and heat it up for lunch every day, was suitably nick named Rogan for the rest of his time there.0 -
Think these are the shortest odds so far.

But no. More fucking stupid puns. Not fish this time but something to do with curry.

If it is him it just stinks of a manager leading us to mid-table again. Probably be sacked by the end of the year or early next season with a 34% win rate or thereabouts.
I would have been more inspired by Lee Johnson.3 -
Bowyer, and spend some money you Muppets . Poundland won't get you out of the third tier

Ha.Richard J said:I have never been itk in my life ,but I have just been told by my wife's best friend that her daughter in law is the best friend of the wife of the next Charlton manager...... Michael Appleton.
This is either top knowledge or I could look very stupid in the morning.
Am trying to relate to this to work out if it's worth a bet at 2/5.
If my partner had a best friend, who had a son who was married and the person they were married to had a best friend who was ITK (by being best friend's with MA's wife), what chance is there that that information would get relayed back to me as known charlton nut in that set of relationships... The son would know of me I'd estimate, and his wife's best friend would have easily relayed that information to his wife and he'd have picked up on it.
More succinctly, if I was MA's wife I'd tell my best friend and expect she'd tell her husband the good news in turn. If I was the son I might tell my mum the exciting news entering the household this evening as to why my wife is excited for her best friend. As the mother I'd think that news has value for my best friend and so mention to Richard's wife.
It also fits with the 6 degrees of separation theory, which IIRC is that everyone knows everyone within 6 hops. Richard is 6 hops from MA in his account.
I think this is investible information.4 -

Not everyone is miserable all of the time.
Being a paratha of a forum, you are going to get silly moments like this.
Don't worry, the new manager will be appointed soon. The silliness will subside, & the serious business of moaning about it all will begin again!

If you're really that Sikh of it then don't bother. Book yourself a nice relaxing holiday and switch off from CL.
Just be careful for the turban-lance on the flight.

The Chinese whispers type of link will always get some Scepticism.
Just a shame that at the manager had to be Appleton 😂
If only they’d known Nathan Jones!!😉0 -
I think this appointment is much more about who is willing to do it than who the club wants.50
