Greg Bone has resigned as a director of Charlton. He had been on the football and plc boards since 1994. He is thought to have been one of the initiators of the free season ticket idea.
His resignation was for 'personal reasons'. Nevertheless, it may revive speculation about the future course of the club, in particular what the extent of any debt is, how easily it can be serviced, and whether Richard Murray would like to move on.
Nothing more has been heard about a possible acquisition of the club which suggests that something has deterred prospective purchasers (or that they only exist in the imagination of journalists).
Fans at the moment are very pleased with the progress of the club on the pitch which has to be our main focus. We have a team that should get us to the Premiership, but not one that would keep us there, so more investment in the squad will (hopefully) become necessary. Posted by Wyn Grant at 00:19
Mike Stevens also resigned from the PLC in December after 18 or more years. One of the real unsung heroes of the return to The Valley, sending money from the States to meet payroll when funds were very short in the early '90s.
They could use another Mike Stevens right now.
Amazing that the club let his resignation slip by with no fanfare or public thanks.
Perhaps Mike and Greg knew something the others didn't ...

Agreed.
i didn't know he had gone.
Perhaps they didn't want the attention and preferred a more modest departure.
