[cite]Posted By: Thommo[/cite]Its a sad situation if people are seriously suggesting the fans raise the money to oust a manager, would fans dip into their pockets to fund a new 800k signing?
We're not Ebbsfleet United (with all due respect to them), lets leave the decisions to the board, I am not a fan of mob justice and in my opinion, if Pardew has made this club a laughing stock the actions of fans could worsen the situation.
I agree with this point 100,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000%
[cite]Posted By: Charlton Charlie[/cite]Am trying not to spend too much time on here this week as am trying to remind myself that there is more to life than CAFC (not a great deal, but it is there if you look hard enough), but the one question I do have is, do we know that he has lost the dressing room, or is it just speculation? For all I (we?) know, the players might love him....sorry if already covered, as said, not been on here for a while....
Maybe Uncle can give us an insight seeing as he's related to Shelvey??
Incidentally why wasn't he involved on saturday? The England tournament ended over a week ago didn't it. Or is he injured now?
No he had a more important role saturday, wasn't he signing shit in the club shop??!!
we should get Len Goodman to get ont he PA after ever match and 'review' pards performance before holding up the gold ping pong bat with a big fat Zero on it.
"Alan Pardew must be thanking his lucky stars there is a credit crunch - because it's keeping him in a job at Charlton.
Saturday's dismal home defeat to Barnsley proved to be the final straw for many Addicks fans who were left calling for their manager's head long after the final whistle.
But cash-strapped Charlton's financial situation means they cannot afford to sack him.
Pardew still has at least 18 months to run on his current deal and bosses at the Valley are reluctant to stump up the remainder of his contract. It's more heartbreak for their supporters who were last month dreaming of substantial transfer funds following news of a foreign takeover."
And this from the Telegraph, which I'm afraid likened the chances of a Charlton revival to those of John Cleese's dead parrot :
''Their crowd would have been even angrier had they been aware of the background to becoming three goals down in 37 minutes. So anxious was Pardew that he had summoned players for an emergency training session in the morning to work on set-pieces. How did the goals occur? Why of course, set-pieces: two free-kicks and a corner, with Charlton's defence as impregnable as a row of plastic traffic cones.''
Does anyone know if this is true? Not the traffic cones, but the Sat morning training session on set-pieces ?

Who knows but if so, i'd like to question why that wasn't worked on, on friday instead of the morning of a game.
