    [cite]Posted By: nth london addick[/cite]i knew about the coke and dancers cos i supplied them but i did it on the proviso that powell was in charge by midday.

    If this dont happen i will take it that i am knocked and i will send the boys round.


    They even gave me the 2 Busts of some old managers of ours, from outside a board room or something i didnt know who they were so i melted them down

    They offer me those busts as well. Too heavy to carry to the skip they said so I could take them. Would have but I have a bad back.

    For a ton, I would have snapped you with a pair of dancers ! ...... and you could have had a nice 'artistic portrait' with a variety of cardigans!

    I've got a video!

    Is this really going to happen? LIke actually happen? Sir Chris Powell, our manager? amazing....

    If this goes through (I really hope there are no last minute hitches etc) then I can really see this appointment galvanizing the fans and will hopefully lead to some decent performances by the team :)

    Hope he's not going to mention house prices again.

    If only there was a small flat available for Chris to buy near the Valley.

    He's now at The Valley, I have on good authority.

    Not any of these ridiculous sources that are mentioned. Iron-clad fact through a trusted contact he is there right now.

    I think it's a great opportunity for him. We all love Chris Powell, and we all wish him the best. I'll certainly be cheering on Charlton now. Hope they do well.

    Someone on Twitter says it won't be announced until Monday

    @Floebot Inside News: Chris Powell to be announced as manager of #cafc on MONDAY

    As new manager he will surely be at the game tomorrow in the stands watching and seeing the players and seeing what needs doing rather than saying goodbye to LCFC

    I agree that it'd be strange for the announcement to be delayed until Monday.

    Powell officially starting his duties Monday? Fair enough.

    The club officially confirming the appointment on Monday if/when the contract is signed on a Friday and it's already one of football's worst kept secrets of 2011? Don't think so.

    If he wants to say bye bye's to the foxes, i'm sure he'll do that via the club site and other media formats. If all goes through today, you can bet your mum he'll be sitting in the west-stand tomorrow wondering what the hell he's got himself into.

    P.S
    Unless you have any factual info to give, can you all piss off? i'm getting annoyed at the slow connection rate due to too many users. ;-)

    Matt Wright on the official twitter was even left a hint

    C Powell has predicted a draw against Sheffield Wednesday - as part of Paddy's free bets with StanJames.com (MW) http://bit.ly/ge7X2R #cafc

    I can imagine if that rumour is true that there will not be a press conference until Monday.

    So do I have to keep watching the drivel that is SSN this afternoon, just in case? Or should I turn it off, and do some work?

    Previous page, someone said on twitter that Powell will not be confirmed as manager until Monday.

    However Newshopper have just said they believe it will be announced today.
