Where was we before we had Powell? In league one with no hope. Look what Powell has achieved with hardly anything all he needs is a bit of backing from Roland and our support.

Parkinson was given the job after a trial period in which he failed to win a single game; apparently Powell is to be endorsed after winning only five of 28 games this miserable season. Duchatelet has admitted he got things wrong by alienating the fans at Liege, but this looks like inaction to me. If we are relegated with Powell as manager, Duchatelet will have been negligent in not giving a new man a dozen games to keep us up.

What are the stats for the competition we now play in (ie Championship) ?Chizz said:
Only at Charlton could Chris Powell be regarded as a "failure".Viewfinder said:Only at Charlton is failure rewarded so handsomely.

On what planet is Powell a failure?Viewfinder said:Only at Charlton is failure rewarded so handsomely.

When appointed he was charged with "getting us promoted with a team that could hold it's own in the Championship"
He achieved this last year.
He then had no further investment, a squad of players out of contract and a pudding for a pitch. And ownership uncertainty (how many failed takeovers??)
Give him a contract for 18 months - reward his achievements to get us to this point. The boost would lead to a buoyant crowd at the weekend, maybe a couple of decent results and turn the season around.
If Roland still isn't happy in the summer he can get his own man in but for the sake of a few hundred thousand pounds of possible payout in the summer (which would be cheaper than a relegation) it makes sense to do it now.2 -
Bout £1m based on the signing of Wilson and Piotr... Dont think any other fees have been involved unless Im mistaken?JT said:Having spent how much?

I never get the Avram Grant thing, his record is awful, and its widely accepted that at Chelsea he was ignored by Lampard and Terry who managed the team on his behalf1

Hmmm getting a little worried by today's events. Referred to as a 'coach' by RD and talks are ongoing. Now he has cancelled his appearance this evening. Surely negotiations wouldn't be so important right here right now if everything was going to end well?
What was Powell's demeanour like in the press conference?0 -
Errr, I was referring to the fact that another Lifer had already pointed this out, RR !The Red Robin said:

Maybe he's cancelled tonight to carry-on negotiating his contract or meet with his agent.0

As if you've included Piotr who he's just signed and has played 5 minutes in a discussion about how he's done in the Championship over the last 2 seasons. It's 400k for Wilson and that's it.ForeverAddickted said:

In what capacity though? Manager or Coach?Callumcafc said:0 -

Coach means manager in continental Europe. I've no doubt that's what RD means.4

Some talk that Powell contract renewal is for less than what he is on now. Wouldn't surprise me if this was true.0

I thought Powell was on quite a low wage compared to other managers though?0

So will he be slashing season tickets next year then?eaststandmike said:

To be fair you normally get what you pay for so if we are relegated I for one would want a cheaper seat to watch a lower standard of football.

The term coach is widely used on the continent. I'm certain that using that term instead manager is nothing to worry about. However in actuality. If CP isn't selecting the incoming players then "coach" is exactly what he is.3
-
Roland said in his press conference that he is not spending lots of money just to win so he has the right manager in CP so not surprised he is offering him a new contract0
-
Trouble is tactics and coaching is not CPs strong point. If he is not allowed to pick players who he knows have the right spirit and character then that is taking away one of his strengths. CP is a great man but I doubt that this current situation is going to do him or Charlton any favours.ShootersHillGuru said:The term coach is widely used on the continent.
