  • Shouldn't it be Part Deux ?
  • First time I've heard the P word mentioned under this regime (premiership).

    The groundsman interviewed on the new pitch stated it would be Premier League standard for when we return in 2 to 3 years! :)
  • The Academy looks like it will be an integral part to any plan that RD has with our club.

    BP says he's going to look and see which players can move up to play for the first-team, so hopefully this means that will entice players like Gomez to sign a contract knowing that he may get a run in the first-team next year.
  • Gomez, Lennon and Fox to get some games next season then
  • Shouldn't it be Part Deux ?

    Isn't that ballet, AFKA ?

    :-)

  • After reading part 2 I have absolutely no doubt we are going to win the league!!!

    Rock on Bobby........

    CO YR....
  • Usual bollox.

    You expected more!!!!

  • Talked a lot about transfers
  • Well he would say that wouldn't he. Seriously though. Quite encouraged that both he and the club know what type of players are needed. Those words have cheered me up a little.

    Reza is showing how quality doesn't mean everything which always worry me, if they're picking these players who have never set foot in England or played the English style of football, regardless of quality they may not settle in. Seems pretty obvious on the set up though, academy products and 'experienced' from elsewhere within the network I should imagine, inexperience is going to be my biggest worry, especially when we hold players like Solly with a very serious long term injury, Wiggins still recovering himself, we'll be a totally new team to the league some match days.
  • Actions speak louder than words, and there is very rarely anything too controversial in one of these 'pleased to meet you' type interviews but there has been nothing in what he has said the get upset about.

    Welcome Big Bald Belgian Bob. I hope you are a raving success and go on to be considered proper Charlton.
  • There is no reason to believe that a good percentage of our new players won't be from Britain. IMHO.
  • A bit more in it and bit more reassuring than part one. Easy to talk about the premiership a lot more difficult to get there though. Like the sound of some of it and that Roland realises that the championship is a physical and the play more intense in the league.

    "Good players and good skills are one thing, but you also need strength, pace and a good attitude.

    “It is a very tough division and everybody can beat each other. You can beat the top team and then lose to the bottom team.

    “The players who come in need to be up for it and they need to be suitable for the Championship.

    “We are going to bring in players who know what it takes to play at a very hard level with a lot of good teams.”

    I always support the Academy players getting a chance (sorting out the contracts vital though). I will be happier to see some of these players arrive / contracts confirmed and signed.

    The flesh on the bones of these promising words is what is needed now.
  • Answers many of the on field things people have worries about IMO.

    Actions speak louder then words now but he seems to understand what we need & the failings of some of the players previously signed/loaned.

    Added bonus for me is his confirmation that he likes his teams to play passing football.

    Really? Who was the last player from Britain RD signed on a permanent deal for the first team?

  • A very interesting & very positive conclusion to the interview with Bob. What on earth is not to like?
  • “I also want to see the academy and which players we can maybe use in the first team. It is going to be a good mix of young guns and people with experience.

    Love hearing that

    If that's all you've got to moan about then we'll be fine.

    Might be relevant if we were a Brazilian club.
