Would be surprised if Rolands just decided now instead of the moment he'd taken over. What has Powell really done in the games since to warrant a deal?
Maybe Roland had a look around and decided there was no-one better.
Perhaps seen how much support he has from the fans?
If this is true?!? I think it could be a very clever and very well timed press conference tomorrow. I think a statement from RD confirming this would give everyone at the club, players, (most) supporters, Chris and his staff a real boost going into the back end of the season. I feel it would give all concerned the chance to get ourselves out of this mess (league position) and push for a WEMBLEY appearance! COME ON YOU REDS........and Roland don't let me down!!!
I do hope this is true, even if people don't rate him they must see that this will give the players/staff stability to perform better knowing that the manager won't be sacked immediately.
If true I wonder what Yann thinks. Could have stayed with Powelly, had hero satus of keeping us up AND played in the FA Cup final at Wembley had he stayed. Instead he gets to sit on the bench at a club with a 10,000 seater stadium.
Can you imagine if RD announces that Powell has a new contract with the club then Yann walks in wearing a Charlton shirt saying he'd had second thoughts and Bournemouth agreed to let him return to his one love. Charlton Athletic Football club.
I would go absolutely f@cking mental if that happened!
This is the most important news most of us have been looking for since the takeover. I hope it is true. If so, I feel the club can, at last, start to move forward after the unfortunate "stutter" in our progress caused by the financial breakdown between the previous owners. 100% support for Chris Powell!!
i have said that i believe Chris Powell is the best man to run with Roland's plan, i just hope he adapts with it, as over the last couple of months he has come up way short

Maybe, just maybe, he thinks CP is the best man for the job like the majority of fans do.
So come on RD, announce this tomorrow.

Powell has obviously said & done the right things, at least off the pitch, to please the new man.
