[cite]Posted By: AFKABartram[/cite]What i AM sure of though is that i want a manager who is DELIGHTED to be offered our job, can't believe his luck, and is 100% motivated and eager to come in and attack it to take us forward.
The longer this has dragged on and been played very much in the, the more i'm feeling that this doesn't seem the guy for that. Which is a shame because i rate him.

Potenially true, though you have to balance by thinking the cynical view is to put that around when you have missed out on something.

Too simplistic, AFKA. What if Howe does feel exactly this way about us ... but also about Bournemouth too?
Life isn't always about absolutes. It's about comparisons too. So it could be that he feels the difference between us and Bournemouth isn't great enough to warrant a move.
It's a massive decision to uproot your family and leave a club where you're a legend. I don't blame him for taking his time. (unless he ends up at palace!)
not dissappointed - HOWE is just a time waster if it's taken him this long then he dont want to come so we dont want him just get someone quick big month for us and still signed no one !!!

I agree with that. Several pages back in this thread yesterday, I suggested that Howe was the footballing equivalent of a cock-tease (although I find Rothko's ''showing ankle'' a much more elgeant description!). I kind of don't mind that - or, at least, I'd rather have that than a slapper who would sleep with anyone.
If he can't make his mind up which of his suitors to run off with, he's surely right to stay put in the marital home. Assuming he doesn't go to Palace, all we can do is make sure we stuff the b*****d whern we go down to Dean Court on March 26 !

It hasn't really dragged on, taking a few days to decide on a big decision is fine surely. It just seems like it's dragging if you are hitting refresh every 10 minutes on here and the Bournemouth blog!

Exactly.
In any case if AFKA is correct then CAFC may have moved on already.
The leak to Sky of "6 on a short-list" could be read as "We're out of this one and moving on to other candidates of whom we have a few so see you latter Eddie"
Once SSN last night said that they had news on Eddie Howe and Charlton and then said he is one of 5 we are looking at i said to the missus thats him out then,
I really hope we had made that decision last night and had moved on we are obviously shopping in the same store as Scum, and now Pboro and Burnley and we need to get to the tills first this time

If Howe was motivated by money he'd have gone to Southampton a few months ago.
It's a BIG decision for anybody

Dont Pin your hopes on you getting Howe,
yesterday before Lunch This fat tosser then got a text this morning saying he aint coming
Font of all knowledge will win this 1 nil you watch and learn Losers ;-)
I am in the same boat as AFKA i rated him but he couldnt choose and the longer it went on the less i wanted him
remember Coppel at Citeh this will be the same with Howe he needs to stay at AFCB because he is not ready to leave

Just saying.
Understatement of the day!!
#afcb chairman Eddie Mitchell tells us that a decision on the future of Eddie Howe and Jason Tindall will be reached by the end of today
BBCSolentSport
#afcb chairman Eddie Mitchell says 'negotiation' and 'talking' is continuing with his management team of Eddie Howe and Jason Tindall
BBCSolentSport

SLPsport

keep Garry Waddock away from Charlton.
Staying or going disappointment?

Palace: 1/25
Charlton: Betting closed!
Where my £10 has gone, even though I think Hughton is our best suitor.
Exactly.
