I actually bought my season ticket because I rated Dean Holden and thought he would steer us towards the play-offs.ct_addick said:I wonder if I can get my money back for the Charlton TV season ticket I purchased......I've lost hope1 -
If you asked me straight after Holden left about Warburton I'd say no, ask me now? I'd take your hands off for him.0

I'd take Bowyer back over many of the other names and I really didn't like him at the end.
Whatever I want is immaterial. We'll get whoever they get.3 -
At the end of the day no matter who get appointed, win two league games in a row, go over to the fans and throw a few passionate clenched fists around, and then tell Terry in the interview afterwards how amazing the fans were, everyone will be positive about them no matter who it is.39

Genuine question - Nathan Jones has been in the frame but I seem to recall quite a lot of hostility on here whenever he was mentioned. Is this down to some known incident or behavioural trait because he's familiar with Charlton, I thought he did a good job a Luton and he might be a good fit for us?0

Here we go...Richard J said:I am probably biased given my disclosure last night,but I feel quite positive about Appleton.
Like us he needs this to work and I think he will be good given his record at Lincoln and Oxford.

Yeah it’s the lose the first three games, and straight down the tunnel that’s more likely recently with usAFKABartram said:At the end of the day no matter who get appointed, win two league games in a row, go over to the fans and throw a few passionate clenched fists around, and then tell Terry in the interview afterwards how amazing the fans were, everyone will be positive about them no matter who it is.0 -
Not confirmed from the club though. It's all indirect information, where Cawley and the ilk are told stuff or hear stuff.ButtleJR said:
Appleton and Cowley definitely have...killerandflash said:

I think the main problem on here with Appleton is that horrific mug shot we’ve had to put up with for a few years now. That mugshot was never posted in a positive light. Maybe, in real life, he’ll be alright. I for one don’t know much about him apart from that shot which is pretty gruesome.5

Interesting that there is a lot of love for Mark Warburton.
Older than Adkins was
Less successful than Adkins had been
Hasn't been a manager for longer than Adkins hadn't
These comments aren't meant to be argumentative more to tease our the "why do you think that" because a lot of it comes across as group think based on someone else having a hunch.
I wouldn't be opposed to Warburton but I think it's highly unlikely.1 -
The club won't confirm who was interviewed. A mate of mine literally met Cowley at the valley... And Appleton was there the same day. Not been fed this by anyone senior!killerandflash said:

On stats/ managerial record alone along with the Charlton connection I would have had him but I'm worried that he might be a nutter.3 -

Give it to Jason Euell who knows the club and would be hungry to provve himself.5

Oh and he was mocked for winning the Man United u21 play of the year earlier in the thread 🙄0 - Sponsored links:

Fans opinions play no part in the selection process. The managers concern is inspiring and organizing the players. As apparently our reputation has plummeted so low that few actually want the job, finding an experienced manager to take over who's proven to be competent at the level we find ourselves is the best we can expect, no matter how unappealing to the fans.Oh Eddie Youds... said:I’d be quite happy if they didn’t appoint anyone tomorrow and extended the search into next week if it meant we didn’t bring in an uninspiring journeyman like Appleton.

I'm glad it's not just me who would like him here.Jac_52 said:charlton_hero said:Oporto Sports Management has recently started following the club's official X (Twitter) page. Two of their clients are Chris Powell and Michael Appleton.
Individuals – Oporto Sports Management
And Steve Evans... Would be interesting if he applied. Maybe he's exactly the type we need right now..
We'd have to widen the tunnel and reinforce the dug out seats though, he's a big lad.3 -

A shame this cannot be said about our goalkeepers.killerandflash said:
It would have to be a TERRIBLE appointment to do that, and realistically that's not going to happen. The likes of Appleton and the Cowleys are unexciting, but they're also both safe pairs of hands as well.Cafc43v3r said:
Make no mistake a poor appointment could leave us in the 4th division for the first time in our history.killerandflash said:
More realistically, a poor appointment will leave us stuck in mid table mediocrity for the 3rd season running.Mendonca In Asdas said:Next appointment is absolutely crucial, without sounding too doomsday, balls this one up, and they’ll be little left of the club in league 2, we need someone who can unite the fans, and not be so naff they’ll get the heave ho by Christmas.0 -
This is all bullishit rumours driving down the odds0

I have to say I am totally underwhelmed by the new manager appointment.
I have no idea who it will be but I’m just a dedicated follower of fashion.4 -

Second interviews were yesterday and Tuesday. Not sure if those two progressed to that stage. Though was told Cowley's interview went well.valleynick66 said:

Well if there were 2 rounds of interviews that actually would fit. Last week the initial, first round, then the second round this week with those who made the shortlist.0
