CHARLTON SIGN NEW CEO - DANE MURPHY (p13. Oh no they don’t)

Hartleypete

Off the pitch we are, once again, rudderless. It’s like running a huge bank and leaving the chief cashier in charge, such a shame as on the pitch we have come a long way.

Whats happened to Gavin (what’s his name) who was to be the shining Knight, very quite on all this.

He’s doing his job? What are you expecting? Minutes of every single meeting that takes place at the club. There are people obviously in control in the meantime, they don’t need to be shouting about every movement from the rooftop

He could at least raise his head above the parapet on the Millwall cock ups.

That's true of everyday matters. But by the same logic you'd think that someone might want to say something when there's been a fcuk up and the fans - the paying customers - aren't happy.

Not seen anyone ask for minutes of every meeting but following the poor performance of the outsourced catering v Watford there was a lot of comms from Gavin Carter and Ed Warrick about the problem and what they had done to rectify it.  That was a good example of owning the problem and communicating with the fans.  And it seems their actions have worked so praise is, IMHO, due there.

The comms and incidents before, during and after the home game are a different problem as it doesn't just involve a contracted supplier over whom the club have a great deal of influence and control.  

There is another club involved and a police force who have a great deal of power so I can understand that the club have to tread carefully and be careful in what they say but not to the extent of saying next to nothing and even appearing to down play the issues.

The Chairman and SMT have already shown that they can do a lot better.

I wonder how the new CEO search is going. And the replacements for TL and Dr Will come to that.
