    I want the job too, neither of us are going to get it.

    we we do not want Parker - apart from the Judas bit, how has he proved he’s a good manager ? Warnock has proved it over and over again for years - I’d pay him whatever it takes 
  • It must be Powell, Powell, Powell
    It must be Powell, Powell, Powell
    Nothing more
    Nothing less
    Powell is the best

    It would be Madness otherwise...🙄

    Sadly there’s nothing in that piece that encourages me to think he’s actually one of the favourites. I do think he might be in the mix if it transpires that we cannot persuade one of our prime targets to join. I’d be perfectly happy to have Warnock for six months rather than have to go with our third or fourth choice. Apart from giving us a good chance of getting out of trouble I think he’d just lift the entire club.

    I’d imagine Euell would want to be part of the 1st team set up alongside Fleming who he was with at Bristol City

    Euell has done those jobs already. I imagine he feels he’s ready to manage.

    Cawley drops Rowett’s name but says it’s unlikely he would drop to League One. The fact his name is even mentioned is good though.

    Of course you can never tell but I’d say Fleming is more qualified than Jason. I’d be pretty worried if Euell were to get the job.

    18 months - a relegation battle followed by a promotion charge - right up his street

    From what Fleming said in his press conference I took it that he doesn’t want to be a manager. Talked about being 55 and knowing what he is. Different with Euell as we know he wants to manage having applied for the Wimbledon job.

    I find it funny that Millwall Fan is laughing at anybody suggesting Rowett..... 
    I just can’t see him dropping down to L1, unless it was to a genuinely big club like Sheffield Wednesday (next season) or Derby. 

    Why would he? He is one of very few managers who left his previous job without being sacked. He left with his reputation still intact. From the outside looking in he did a fantastic job at ours. The next time a decent job in the championship comes up he will be in the running, without doubt. 

    I just think the Charlton job would be seen as too much agg and insecurity for a manager of his standing. Same with Warnock. You need someone who is a bit desperate to start out in it or get back in to it. Neither Warnock or Rowett come under that category. They know a decent job will come along sooner or later. Why risk their reputation by going to Charlton where it will more than likely go belly up for them. 

    Sorry, I just say it as I see it. 

    "A manager of his standing" :D

    Saw a clip of him talking to a group of Maidstone fans, with his squad at Portman Road. That’s how you unite a club.

    I said as much earlier. If he was going to try for management then he’d have done it long ago. My point is he’s still probably more qualified in terms of experience than Jason. We definitely don’t need a complete rookie like JE at the moment.

    He talks very well - but that set up for today's game - with 8 defenders on the pitch to start with isn't for me

  • Ok - I’m not gonna name names. I’m looking at the issue logically like any business or organisation that is failing.

    1) Shown again by the performance today, we have a lot of players who aren’t very good. This has been enhanced by a lack of confidence which is being fed by (an understandable) broken atmosphere in the stands and around the club.

    2) We can get Pep or Klopp in - technically we simply are lacking too much to approach this challenge in a way that expects the team to become executionally better overnight. Or at least in the short period of time we have left.

    3) it is a pretty large sample (40 years in my lifetime) that states our greatest achievements have always come in a way that’s uniquely Charlton. We may not have always had the players that on paper reflected the achievements on the pitch. But we can fight and that spirit has got us up, and kept us up before.

    We are not good enough in pure skill and talent alone. But that doesn’t mean we can’t stay up. When Riga kept us up…. When Powell almost got us in the play offs in the first year after the league one title…… it wasn’t done on playing teams off the park.

    The club had a special feel.

    Whoever takes over needs to perform the footballing equivalent of CPR. And that could be a hire that creates a booming atmosphere at the first match back.

    Theres time to take care of a more sustainable on pitch set up - but for now we need someone to come back and get the Charlton Athletic back.

    What you could see today was Fleming and Pearce trying to address the defensive issues which we all know about. The fragility was there but we got better and could have won it in the end although that would have been hard on Blackpool. The focus has to be on getting the defence right, it is absolutely the right approach. You'd have to be an idiot to change that before we see the outcome of what they are trying to do.
  • If anyone is interested in the job let’s hope they weren’t there today.

    Hopefully just an attempt to stop the rot, Curbs-style. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt, if he's still in charge for the next game and plays the same team/formation I'll be peed off

    Way too many on twitter saying Fleming should get the season off a gritty 1-1.

    We play Derby next. Expect more of the same to minimise the openings and a bit more connectivity going forward after a bit of training ground work.

    He came in and did exactly what a caretaker manager sets out to do. 

    Need to move on now and bring someone in who can instil some confidence in the team, and drill in the basics on the training ground - because that’s where we are failing at the moment.
