Will it be Scenario:
1) He never works within the football circuit again and completely goes off the map. His career and way of making money becomes a mystery... as he's not it the public eye it's no one's business anyway.
2) As a respected man of football and the FA, he goes into full time punditry for a couple of years and even joins the BBC crew in the summer for one of England's world cup games.
3) He gets appointed as manager of a team the equivalent of Port Vale, with the ambition of slowly building them up. (League 1)
4) Orient sack their manager mid season while struggling in the championship and appoint Powell to save them in the 14/15 season. (Can see that one happening for some reason)
5) A team like Blackpool/Ipswich (championship) have a vacancy open for next season and Appoint Powell.
6) He takes up a Plastering training course as an apprentice.
7) Fulham/West Brom/Norwich take a Punt on him, Or at even higher club level.
8) He gets a season ticket in the North upper next season enhancing his Charlton legend status and wearing his old hat. (My favourite)
9) Coaches England youth teams (under 21 or lower)
10) Yoevil/Barnsley show their current manager the door and appoint Powell before we play them at home. It's disgusting and even has Charlton fans Physically throwing up outside Bartrams. When he keeps Barnsley/Yoevil up, we get relegated, Tony Pulis manages abroad leaves Palace, who then approach Powell....oh dear. (I call this one the scenario of death with the symbol of a skull) - extremely unlikely but had to pit it in.
11) Other...You call it...

I love Chris Powell and feel sad that it feels like you need to apologise for saying that. I think he is a great bloke and goes on to great things in football management.

Anyone who thinks that is sad, well don't really give a fig what they think to be honest
I hope he does.
Hit a tipping point of feeling slightly cut up about his departure. Unexpectedly.
Maybe this thread is pre-mature.
Premier clubs won't take the risk until he has another job in the football league I believe.
Not sure about that one. He will be looking to ccomplete the final part of his UEFA pro licence in the summer and have little time be a pundit.
11a: Edit: Duchatelet sells the club to a Peter Varney-led consortium that sacks Riga or whichever Duchatelet puppet happens to be in charge and brings back Sir Chris Powell on a deserved lifetime contract. Oh, and they let him pick the team as well.
Actually think Red Robin's 11a will happen.
Could be 10 years, could be less.
Never know in football. All very unpredictable.
The worst situation - chrissy gets appointed with Ipswich and works wonders with them as I believe he can (and has done), and we sorely regret what might have been.
I have to admit, I think it may be the second one.
He said he hopes it works out the way the new owners want at charlton but he wasn't convinced it would.
Overall he was very neutral on what had happened, seemed annoyed at Obika coming in now as he had been trying for a while!
I think he will be at a championship club at the start of next season and with the right backing he will be a success
Brings in 22 new players wins the championship with a record points total and gets backed the following year and superhoops become a regular champions league club
