Not digging you out mate, but as far as i can see it has happened once. He has been in the job 6 months and they finished 3rd from bottom, with the bottom two relegated. They did however lose all their last 4 games, and won just 1 in their last 9.SELR_addicks said:
His habit of keeping teams from getting relegated could come in useful next season...
His only sustained managing job was at Cercle Brugge. In the three seasons before him they finished 4th, 9th, 9th. Under him they finished 9th, 7th and in the season he got sacked they finished bottom (16th).
He then went to Gent mid-season. They didn't win a single game in his 11 in charge (five draws, 6 defeats), and he was sacked again (twice in one season) after 11 games. Amazingly, after he was fired Gent stayed up after an amazing run of 12 wins, 3 draws and 3 defeats in their last 18 games.0 -
And the fact of the scumwall connection0

This Millwall connection thing is really irritating me. Our greatest ever manager had a very strong link with Millwall and apart from managing them went on to become a director of the football club.
Our hero Steve Gritt has a very strong history with Millwall. Another Charlton legend Johnny Summers played 91 times for Millwall before joining us.
What possible consequence of Peeters playing a couple of dozen times for Millwall ten years ago have any effect on his coaching skill, personality or anything else.
Did you hate Chris Powell for playing for Palace. Or Super Al for the same reason.
Pissing me right off. Rant over.16 -

If you are Morrison, Hamer and Poyet, all with probably more lucrative offers on the table from sides placed notably higher up in the 92 than us last season, and have now had two managers who you liked and respected a lot removed in the space of less than 3 calendar months, I am struggling to see a single substantive reason why you would even be polite enough to bother giving Katrien or whoever else the courtesy of sitting down round a table to discuss it. Because you can't bear to leave the Valley until you've had a chance to play on that new pitch? Or because you've always wanted the opportunity to develop fluency in Flemish and are convinced that the squad make-up here come pre-season will give you the best chance of achieving said objective?
Ex-Millwall, ergh.6 -

Let's wait until he's appointed before we get behind Peeters . . . I don't fancy following Waasland-Beveren, even if I can find them on the map.1

In Belgium for work at the moment, I was on a mission last night to find a Standard fan but failed, tonight I'll try and find someone who knows something about Bob Peeters.

To be fair to him and his Millwall past, it's not as if we're appointing Keith Stevens or Terry Hurlock as head coach!1
-
maybe Roland is still upset that Riga saved us from the drop and he has paid the price for the reported extra 4 million!11

Fair enough, got gate receipts and turn over mixed up tbh. 13/14 our turn over was bigger than yours. Granted, the cup run probably helped this a bit, but to be honest, I still thought your turn over would double ours seeing as you're such a massive club and we're little old Smallwall.

Nice try but it's not true. Your matchday income (£5.4m) was only £200,000 short of Charlton's in 2012/13 (£5.6m, eighth best in the division) because it included your share from an FA Cup semi-final at Wembley and whatever you earned in the run to get there.MillwallFan said:
Well it's a fact that we take more in gate receipts than you. You're not a premier league club anymore you know.paulie8290 said:

Minus the average away support and free tickets at The Valley and they average around the same as us these days...but by charging about a third less.
In 2011/12 Millwall's matchday income was £4.6m in the Championship - Charlton's was £5.1m in League One.
It is true Millwall fans pay more on average (and more than fans of most other Championship clubs) and it may be the correct strategy for the club given its relative inability to expand its support. But it does not as a matter of fact generate more income than Charlton's approach does for Charlton.
Back on topic, who'd have guessed the best men for the job the next two times it came up after Powell left were both Belgians?

It's got sweet FA to do with what clubs he played for in the past. Roland does not know a good thing when it's standing there right in front of him.killerandflash said:To be fair to him and his Millwall past, it's not as if we're appointing Keith Stevens or Terry Hurlock as head coach!
24 points from 16 games with a team that was rock bottom, a weaker squad from January and he kept us up. What much more could have Riga have done to say to Roland "There you go, how about a new contract?"
The Belgium press are quoting Riga saying that he wanted to stay, so to me it was a no brainer.
From the footballing side of things, Roland scares me.7 -
I must admit I'm disappointed with this if Riga really did want the job, which is what it sounds like. Why not go with the obvious fit RD? I just don't understand sometimes.
If this does happen only time will tell what Peeters is like. Maybe RD will throw 10 million at him now so he just can't fail. :-)1 -
Must admit that from day one i've always been pro-RD but if these reports are true and Riga wanted to stay then i'm finding it pretty difficult to find any positives in RD getting this guy in.
Hopefully all will become clear soon.4 -
Someone nice like Gigi BecaliAbsurdistan said:I'd rather have a Romanian.
If you haven't heard of him he's well worth looking up0 -
Hmm, Bob Peeters.
All we can do is wait & see.
The good news is I'm not overly impressed and am usually wrong.
Who'd have thought Lennie Lawrence (no track record), would have been a legend ?
Who'd have thought Alan Curbishley (no track record), would have been a legend ?
I thought Dowie might have been ok.
I was ecstatic when we appointed Pardew.
Riga ? I'd never heard of him & wasn't optimistic.
So let's wait & see. He's not even been appointed yet.5 -

If true Riga wanted the job and was not given it that would be a strange decision to make from old roly.0
-
We are becoming less and less attractive as time goes on, my tingly senses are heightening, unless Roland passes us some of SL's top boys I can't foresee us bettering this season, would love to eat my words. Our only experience playing at a good level in Championship will be from within our current squad, and some of them will be going. Stick with Riga and lets move forward, Roly.0
