Very glad that he seems keen on working with Damian Matthew who is a link with many of the good things over the years, including all his work with our young guns like Poyet and Cousins etc.
Back to Bob, good luck to him. Everything I feel will boil down to the quality of the arrivals he's given. His main job I suspect will be centred around organising and crafting a squad spirit.
The Championship is as much about togetherness as it is ability.
Indeed, Dan.
If BP can recreate that fantastic team spirit that SCP ( and then JR ) built, that will be a very important factor in how successful is his tenure at our Club.
Getting the players on side & working for each other, whether they be "home grown" or not, is of paramount importance from Day One IMHO.
Getting the fans on side will follow close behind if we see a united team of players & their management staff hitting the ground running.
And this could happen before the first ball is kicked if only BP can sell his vision of the season ahead to young Diego and also Morro.....
If Bob's only initially signed on for a year , then who is going to want to join us apart from out of contract, loans or network players, it doesn't sound great?

I notice Riga has only got a one year rolling contract, which I assume is similar so maybe thats the way things are these days for managers.
After it is mentioned he will be at the Valley next week, couldn't that explain the reason for the contract negotiations dragging out with Morrison and Poyet? Surely they would want to sit with Bob face to face and talk about the vision of the coming season - I hope this is one of the reasons at least, and that Bob will do a good job recruiting two of our best players to new deals
A year contract...i guess it keeps the manager on his toes If fear and uncertainty is a good motivator...and saves RD a bit of dosh, hang on a minute, we have a reason peeters was appointed.
Okay, I'm not going to dig out the bloke after that interview. Words are only words, and in the end they can mean very little. He didn't say anything wrong or negative, as expected.
I don't believe in the new guy, as of yet, but yet again that's because I know f*ck all about him apart from his name is Bob peeters, he's an ex spanner, and he kept waasland braslav up.
I admit I've been willing to back up RD and the appointment of Peeters but I really don't understand the one year contract thing. It doesn't promote stability and surely can't be encouraging to players coming in or renewing contracts. Ok it means if Peeters doesn't work out they can get rid cheaply but other than that I don't get it. Unless that's the way they do it in other leagues which is why he is head coach not manager. Even so I don't agree with that approach. Still willing to back Peeters, that hasn't changed.

That was my thinking, sasquatch.
If it does happen, it will surely elevate Bob in the eyes of many Addicks.
We should know this, Lennie - has a warm and friendly face. Curbs dismissed the relevance of Image because he was well respected from his playing days.
Dowie - need a thousand words to paint that picture
Pardew...Great example. Inside he think s he is ugly but goes for bling as he pretend s he is good looking. Just like Ronaldo. They then become over-focussed on image
Parkey -friendly face and great genuine style for him
Powelly - well he looks like Denzel so he is sorted. Denzel crossed with the Devil in Legend films.
Riga - priceless just for the hours of self doubt created in SuperAls fragile psyche. Trust the guy he wants to see in the mirror to rock up at the Valley.
BP - blank canvas. Prioritise his image consultancy...
Some will say it s irrlevant but its highly relevant to the players
Right thats far too much waffle from me for the day.
New concrete link to a domestic player tomorrow please. We need 8-10 ideally with 80% having domestic experience

It's not a concept we really have here but in other countries clubs are often younger and have merged and/or moved eg Bob's last club.
Think of MK Dons as not being a traditional club.
We forget that Charlton, despite being a young club in England, are older than many continental clubs and have a less complicated history.
Im not digging BP out, IMO this hastily assembled release doesnt do BP justice. It will be cited in other media in the next week....
100% support .
A decent in depth interview through the clubs website, during the close season, within 7 days of the appointment. Not bad going.
Also pleasing to hear DM is going to be Peeters right hand man.

Time is gone to talk about Riga leaving and dwelling on the past.
Time to look forward and see who comes in and the style of football.
First time in years it is too hard to predict what level the squad will be at come August.

Although he has developed a reputation as a coach who puts his faith in youth, Peeters admits his current break is barely a holiday at all with the search for more experienced reinforcements to the Charlton squad having already begun.

Championship experience or just older players I wonder?

Welcome good luck
Image in footie is of high value
