Still wouldn't be surprised if it was Warburton. Would he have crossed paths with Scott at Brentford?
I reckon you might be right. Another (slightly less than Appleton) beige appointment.
I just can’t see them going dynamic. It’ll rock the boat too much.
I really hope I’m wrong otherwise mediocrity is dialled into this lot.
I'm just not sure if the timelines of Scott being there as manager and then Technical Director/Chief Scout and Warburton being on their coaching staff and then manager quite exactly line up. Just feels like him coming in on the odds suddenly is more than someone putting a pound on a small market.
@supaclive has Rowett’s Dad implied that he is fully out of the running or is he negotiating on the salary issue I.e if Charlton offer something nearer his previous championship wage would he take the role?
I thought the decisions are made by those who hold the majority of the shareholding. If there is some mechanism that devolves the decision making to one person then I wonder who that person (or persons granted) is. Appleton was sacked by somebody, and the new manager/coach will be appointed by somebody. Is it reasonable that fans ask where the buck stops with regard to hiring and firing of Managers/Coaches?
As with most businesses there will be an agreed delegation of authority but even in listed entities, some decisions are reserved for shareholders to approve (known as class 1 transactions). Shareholders in listed companies can vote against the re-election of any director at the next general meeting. In the case of a consortium, whilst a shareholders agreement may dictate the delegated authority, it would be a foolish chief executive or chairman that does not consult the major shareholders about major decisions such as this.
I hope the major shareholders whoever exactly they are, are all across this, even taking the lead, after all it's their club they own. I also hope the major shareholders are very aware and knowledgeable enough about football, and Charlton Athletic specifically, to not be scammed or bullshitted.
Evening all! I have bad news sadly Rowett won't be taking the job He is being paid by Millwall until end of August He is paid by Sky to do Soccer Saturday We are offering a fair whack for a team bottom 6 in Division 3 But not as much as Rowett gets currently He also wanted to be Manager not Head Coach and have more control than was being offered
#preyforjones
Feel like neither Rowett or Jones will work under Scott unless he's willing to give up some of his responsibilities. That's just me guessing though.
We'll end up with the fourth or fifth choice again

Thanks for sharing.
Not good news and slightly worrying that if we're not offering enough to land Rowett the same might apply to Jones.
I think Jones has a higher ceiling and could build a philosophy akin to Luton which may have longer term success, however there is a chance it goes tits up this season if it takes too long to bed in his style and we could be looking at the drop in the worst case scenario.
Under rowett we would not go down but I think there is less chance of him getting us promoted next season but certainly not impossible.
Very difficult decision tbh and I’m not surprised the SMT are taking time to get it right.
This mirrors my opinion. Rowett is not the man to rebuild this club! Jones is, it’s as simple as that.
The thing is will either of them get the knee jerk reaction needed to get us out of the mire.
I'd be happier with the pair of them installed in less challenging conditions, get Warnock in and he'll sort it out.

Jones will turn us down next (hope not).
He paid by Millwall till end of August or till he finds a new role .. he not on soccer Saturday may get one gig when it’s international weekend

Sorry to say this but I tend to feel the same as you and think we will end up with another nobody as manager. Hope I am wrong but have a bad feeling an out it.

Or he hasn’t been given the job and is covering all bases.
The amount of times we’ve had the answer right in front of us, but turned away from it to go a cheaper or more compliant route is staggering Genuinely think there’s a Palace fan somewhere with a voodoo doll of The Valley

I think Jones is first choice anyway so fingers crossed it still gets done.

Me fed up with your illiterate nonsense.
Have we never considered that English might not be Ronnie's mother tongue?

Surely not a Belgian mole in the camp.....
He's definitely English. I know who he is.
Ah, should have added a smiley !
A poor effort at trying to lift the mood on here tonight.

He was on last weekend, no internationals on unless you know differently of course.
Wiotos . We’re all speculating on what we’d all have said were supposed out of reach targets. There’s still both Duff and Eustace who are significant upgrades on Appleton and Holden
Putting aside has Millwall connections, Rowett was the one out of the "experienced" names that I most liked the thought of managing us. I'm not surprised we can't get him though, he did well in his last job so there is no real need for him to drop to our level just yet - there should be potential Championship gigs for him.

I’m definitely a glass half empty type, so this could be ‘confirmation bias’ but seems to me it’s another example of Charlton trying to do things on the cheap.
