Probably timing the announcement for 2.45 pm tomorrow so that they get maximum publicity on Soccer Saturday and Sunday media. Jone will walk out from the directors box wave at the people in the ground and shake hands with Pearce & Fleming and then return to the directors box0

I'm reliably informed that contracts have been exchanged between Charlton and Nathan Jones. So it should now be very close indeed.
Unfortunately, immediately after exchange of contracts, there was a snag. A request has been put in to review the details by someone calling himself a Mr Patel.36 -
After he takes the first training session on Monday!Gribbo said:What time is too late to make an official announcement? 8pm??0 -
They’re going to wheel him onto the pitch, like Hannibal Lector, complete with face mask and straps.eastterrace6168 said:JUST BLOODY ANNOUNCE IT FFS...this is just stupid now!!17 -
I know it doesn’t count for anything, but I think this is the first appointment since Powell where I’ve been genuinely excited by it. It just feels right. The fact he’s got a connection to the club too keeps the ‘They must be ‘Charlton’ people happy.5

Great news l feel more confident now about the future than I have for years it seems we have owners who are learning from their mistakes and investing money

It’s like buying a house…..
Just need to get to the exchange bit now, before we can bring the furniture in.2 -

Would make sense to announce it in time for people to decide to go to the game tomorrow.3

He won't be in charge tomorrow thoEveshamAddick said:Would make sense to announce it in time for people to decide to go to the game tomorrow.
Most that will happen is he is in the stands and comes out at halftime.
Can understand why
1st game v Derby
Or
1st game v Reading
Which would you like to start you Charlton Managerial campaign with3 -
Keep being reminded that recently we've become incredibly good at screwing things up at the very last minute. In terms of appointing a manager this feels like injury time, which is essentially the point we stop functioning as a football club. Fingers crossed we don't Charlton it now.

On pitch announcement at the Valley? How exciting.As I’ve said before, something about Jones gives me the heebie jeebies, but if he can do here what he did at Luton then it’ll be exciting times. If it’s Southampton again then it could be a very nervy end to the season.Unrealistic to think we could attract better without striking gold on an untested new manager.Happy that he already knows the club, although it’s been through the wringer a few times since he was last here.Fingers crossed this is where we finally start to get it right again.5

At this stage they probably won’t announce it until after Saturday’s game. Not wanting a distraction and all that.2
-
I think it will get announced in the morning, 10am my guess, with a short few words but will have to wait till later, maybe even Sunday or Monday, for a full press conference although whether anyone will attend other than Charlton TV, Cawley and Mendez is open to question. Might wheel him out at half time I suppose but then he won’t get a Bovril.4

I’d say he contributes well to the forum - not surprised if he gets annoyed with the likes of u and similar - bumflufff or whatever his name was was another - contribute zero information and zero entertainment or interest on the board but constantly snipe away with snide comments - crack on mate if your happy with thatUboat said:
He does remind me of you actually. ITK then have a tantrum when challenged.DOUCHER said:
Ignoring him Dubai -I think he was the same with me when I was giving some info on here s few years back - ITK itis syndrome - the agitant thinks that coz u are giving info out that may be of interest to fellow fans, u r there to be shot at and generally abused when u do so - if the board were full of them, u wouldn’t bother but fortunately they are in the minority and hopefully he can get some cream for it - carry on with the info, I’m sure most appreciate it 👍Uboat said:
I do. You’re hurt because you’ve become the unofficial mouthpiece for the current regime and have taken a lot of stick as a result. Now you’ve developed this siege mentality and have to keep lashing out at your imagined enemies. There’s really no need though.DubaiCAFC said:
Not sure you do…Uboat said:
We get it. You don’t have to say it at the end of every post.DubaiCAFC said:
Agreed.. and I have been saying it for months.. things take times. But certain fans have made there minds up.. to suck on sour grapesSouthWest_Addicks said:
I feel the same. This season has been a disaster, but don’t forget Oxford only just stayed up last season. Think they picked 1 win in 20 in the back-end of last season. I’m hoping it is a case of they’ve taken a back seat for the first 6 months to allow the experience football people Scott/CM/Rodwell to show what they can do whilst learning in the background. The opposite to Sandgaard who thought it was easy. No one can argue that they’ve changed their strategy in funding this window. All Charlton fans want stability hopefully, Jones and the owners will provide this.DubaiCAFC said:Love it or not, this group mean business, and fully understand the errors so far, I truly think
this is an exciting time for us. This lot are truly behind us..However, I do appreciate all info given sincerely, even when it turns out to be wrong. Just not keen on the repetitive attacks that come with it.3 -

Could be a good tactic a bit of optimism for the club and fans and hopefully the players out there knowing the new manager is watching closely and wanting to impress.LargeAddick said:I think it will get announced in the morning, 10am my guess, with a short few words but will have to wait till later, maybe even Sunday or Monday, for a full press conference although whether anyone will attend other than Charlton TV, Cawley and Mendez is open to question.

And disrespectful to Curtis Fleming. Imagine Fleming walking out tomorrow and all the focus is on the Directors box & not on the team.Rob said:At this stage they probably won’t announce it until after Saturday’s game. Not wanting a distraction and all that.
I think this has been dealt with very badly.32 -
Honestly couldn’t be happier if it’s NJ.
Look at the turmoil we’ve gone through in recent times, look at our position in the league and we’ve still seemingly managed to secure a coach/manager of his calibre instead of drowning in mediocrity again.
It might work out, it might not but I’m convinced that NJ will succeed in getting what is a now a decent squad playing and getting results.6 -

The announcement will be made at 2am Saturday morning (10am Bejing time) to satisfy our massive support in China. Millions will take to the streets, chanting "Red Army".21

Too right. Incredibly disrespectful to have been so public about the fact we were looking for a manager as well.golfaddick said:

Aside from how difficult February is, March gives us 4 aways in 6 games.Lewis Coaches said:
Nobody wants us to drop into Division 4 but the question is , are the players we have now one up to it and two have enough time to turn things round.supaclive said:
I am pleased they know they've made errors. I sadly don't think they fully understand why though. Otherwise finishing the window short up front, with no perceived number 10 and no quality wide options should we need to switch things up in a game tells me they don't fully understand our weaknesses yet.DubaiCAFC said:Love it or not, this group mean business, and fully understand the errors so far, I truly think

I do think they seriously and fundamentally over estimated our playing squad and how much money and work was needed to arrest our decline down the league table.
I believe they will not want us to drop into Division 4. We need a little luck to not get any further injuries. The next month could make or break us.
This season is not a dead rubber yet,we need to up our game.
