    I'm going to reserve any comments yet as I know very little about him right now.

    That youtube clip with hazard started off looking like an opening scene from the Belgian football factory.........................then ended up looking like Belgium's got talent. Maybe Bob Peeeeeeeeeeeeters is their Simon Cowell?...........

    How very un-Charlton of you. You need to see his name and instantly see him as the next Mourinho or Les Reed.

    Know nothing of his coaching history but I do remember him as a massive target man for Millwall. Sparrows will no doubt give us the Millwall view in due course but I recall Peeters being pretty popular in his time at The New Den.

    I thought he only played 25 games for them in 3 years? But as I said know very little so could be wrong.

    When it's on the OS.....

    IF IF IF it is true then welcome and good luck.

    Off to bad start with being an ex-Spanner but he wasn't to know being from Belgium, like : - )

    Another bump in the road

    Roland playing Russian Roulette once again

    Were TJ and MS playing Russian roulette when they appointed Chris Powell, who had no managerial experience?

    Being a Belgian he is probably aware of the RD model, plus he's played in the country so has first hand experience.

    Not anymore of a gamble than the last few appointments this clubs made.

    Thing is a Belgian that has been managing/coaching in his native land, with a few years experience of this country will better understand how to integrate Liege loanees. He will know the players and how to adapt them etc (in RD's eyes).

    I take this as a big hint that most of our business will be internal yet again.

    He's only 40, at least we ain't got someone in who's been about the block and achieved nothing, all coaches have to earn their stripes somewhere.
    At 6ft 5 I'm sure he will earn the respect of the dressing room.

    People pissed off with the signing already....... Do me a favour, yh gutted Riga won't be in charge (yet) but at least he came in when he did anyway and just thankfull he kept us up.

    I agree.

    But it will be a gamble just like Man Utd appointing Moyes was.

    Some gambles work, some don't.

    Isn't every new manager a gamble? , ffs give him a chance , just because he played for millwall , you do know Powell played for palace , I wanted Riga aswell but I'm gonna give him a chance like I gave Riga .

    I remember him as a player. He wasn't bad. Doesn't mean anything though. Seems weird having Riga at the club but not as manager when he did so well last season and has stated that he would like the job. It's unnecessary for Duchatelet to rock the boat like this.

    A lot wil depend on what players he has to pick from, and if he is forced to pick RD's choices

    A shame if true, Riga deserved the job.

    When we lose "Blue Peeters"

    When we win " Charlton Bob Bob Bobbing along"

    The worst thing is that under Riga the manager/coach was older than me.

    Now, if it is BBP, then not only is he younger he's even taller.

    Who are you asking to give him a chance Yann? Haven't seen anyone say anything particularly negative...are you just getting in early?

    Peeters is a man who is a mid table coach in Belgium, coming here is a chance for him to be seen in England or impress RD and get a shout of taking over Liege.

    I just spoke to a Millwall supporter who said
    "he was mainly a reserve player at Millwall and Charlton can have the shit i don't mind an easy 6 points."

    Think he was just trying to scare me lol. To think I entrust him with my son everyday :-/

    Does t matter how good you were as a player, Stuart Pearce is a great example of that

    >>>>>>>> second morning on the spin i run around the office flapping my arms in the air shouting Roland what have you done!
    My colleagues are begging me to stop reading CL.
    I agree, only have to look at what Sir Riga done for us!

    That article seems to suggest he will head up our youth.

    With the suggestion that Paul Hart is going to Man City, it would be excellent if we get Riga in his place. In respect of Peeters, I will wait and see.

    Mate, only one person knows the answer to that. Just told the wife and first reaction is 'but I don't get why not Riga?'

    Reserve judgement and all that yoda but everyone has a right to an initial reaction even if it bites them on the arse.

    Proper naffed off. Who makes all Rolands football decisions just seems to be picking Belgians at random who will take the job on cheap wages.

    Out of all the millions of Belgians to chose from he chooses the only one that used to play for Millwall. Blue f***in Peeters indeed !

    Was gutted Powell left, but understood the decision why. Riga going.just seems so.needless when everyone, fans, players, and him wanted it, unless he is being 'promoted' to Leige.

    Back to square one again
