Surely if we go down the DOF route then the logical thing is for him to pick the manager so that the playing style and philosophy match up?

Leicester’s owner was respected because he actually gave a **** about the club and the city, the complete opposite if Gao. Reed’s farcical descision to sack Puel and appoint The clown would have been one of the reasons for him getting sacked tho, as it was just one of his many mistakes.

September 2017 was the last time I saw us win live. I’m resigned to relegation already, stay up this year and it will be relegation next, it’s just a matter of time when the decision making at the top is so woeful.

Get ready for a bat-**** crazy appointment if this is true.

We’re **** this season but to say Hughes didn’t do well last season is complete garbage, he only had one bad result and that was West Ham away.

Now would be the perfect time to change manager but I guess we will have to wait until Kruger finds a new DOF. ****ing mess.

That could mean he will be sacked after Watford regardless of the result. I’m hoping they have the new manager lined up and he didn’t want to be told who to buy by Charlton’s worst ever manager, hence the change in structure.

Anyone else expecting us to jump out the frying pan into a ****-off big fire?

Wasn't that Kruger?

Yep, we may well have won our second major trophy if it wasn’t for that.

I’m just glad something is being changed, I don’t have a lot of faith in Gao finding a decent replacement but at least we’re shaking things up. It’s not rocket science though, just a bunch of blokes kicking a ball around a field - hopefully this can be the start of an improvement. Les was around for one of the most successful periods in our history, but that just happened to coincide with the only time we’ve ever been owned by a billionaire. It appeard as soon as Kat started tightening the purse strings he floundered from one bad descision to another. Clubs our size can’t afford to spend £20mill on a player and just send him out on loan, or have a 4th choice keeper on 100k a week.

Problem now is that the job has turned into a poisoned chalice, we are going to struggle to attract anyone with a decent cv. Skint owner, DOF who buys the players but takes none of the blame if it all goes to ****e - the only person who would take that crap on would be relatively unproven or someone who’s been around the block with a mixed record.

Bull****, he had a nightmare run in. West Ham was his only poor result.

I can't see the relevance - how can naming a rape or alleged rape victim possibly be in the public interest? With Green I accept that naming him was probably a mis-use of the Parliamentary privilege and don't support it in principle but think that the rich using NDAs to get away with dodgy behaviour is a more important issue than Lords interfering with press gaging legal cases so support what Hain did.

Look like a bunch of thick racist, cockney scum - hope the plod throw the book at them.

I’m not wearing one now, who am I disrespecting?

Do you really not understand why some people from Ireland might not have a great opinion of British armed forces? Just because he doesn’t respect the queen or the anthem doesn’t mean he hates all British people, even if he does that’s his opinion and I don’t have an issue with it. Each to their own.

No chance.

Maybe he doesn’t dislike the British, just the armed forces? All this outrage is nonsense, it’s totally understandable why Irish wouldn’t want to wear them.

It's the Rupert Lowe days all over again. What happens on the pitch is the only thing that really matters at a football club.

Obviously

I heard from a source a while ago that Reed is good friends with Bruce.

Someone can still be a victim of rape even if there’s not enough evidence to get a conviction.

He has to go if we don’t beat Watford. With the international break it’s the perfect time to change manager. I have little confidence in the clowns at our club being that decisive or getting the replacement right. It’s just been bad decision followed by bad decision for a while now, just a matter of time before we go down even if we stay up this year.

That is worrying, if we don’t strengthen we go down. Something is seriously wrong with the club if there is no money after the players we’ve flogged.
