If Riga comes back then he is an actual moron. He knows that he will have no input in signings and has been screwed over by Duchatelet twice already.5

I think we have seen that KF wasn't the mastermind. The most tactically inept manager we have had in al my time supporting the club. Riga/Euell, bring Watt back and maybe we can start throwing out some positivity on the pitch. The boardroom has to remain a target though.5
-
Not the old laundry basket trick, where one manager get in and if by magic another appears from it.
As Paul Daniels would say: You'll like this, not a lot.10 -
Riga should have been retained not moved of for Peters.
Xenophobia? Well they refuse to have a Brit in charge1 -
Even if true it solves nothing, Riga worked once but it don't mean he will again, lightening rarely strikes twice, even if he did keep us up hailing him a 2 time club hero he'll be released at the end of the season to be replaced by a permanent Belgian bloke that none of us would have heard of with no backing and no championship experience and we'll be back here in the same position this time next year!5

Will his official title be "interim interim head coach"?0
-
So not only are we signing players we deemed not good enough in the past, we bring back a coach/manager/puppet that they have ditched before. The terms stable structure and forward planning strategy must be completely alien to these numpties.4

We've seen the way RD operates and this was probably the best outcome we could expect from him. Whilst I was never convinced that Riga would have gone on to make a success of us if he'd stayed, I do have some respect for the guy. I think he has got a much tougher job this time around however. If it means Fraeye is out of the picture, I'll take it. I really don't want Fraeye hanging around though, he needs to be gone, away from Charlton completely.8

Our back 5 was Hamer, Wiggins, Dervite, Morro and Wilson/Solly. Surely that is better than what we have currently.cafcnick1992 said:I disagree that the squad is weaker than Riga's last stint

Ps I hope he says bugger off to the crazed, arrogant twonks.2

But why does Riga keep getting sacked by each club he manages?6
-
I have heard that Riga will return as Karel's assistant. The mastermind notion will still predominate, but it will be promoted as a successful pairing just as it was before, but with the mastermind in his rightful position.
Once safety is achieved (HAHAHAHAHAHAHA) Riga, who was on a short term contract will go and Fraeye will remain.0 -
No his title will be:
'interim manager until the season end, when if we get relegated he'll get the sack (again) But if we stay up, he may be considered for the role again next season'
Not exactly snappy I know, but accurate I believe.0 -
This will be interesting if it comes about. I instinctively feel that Riga got lucky last time - especially in having three games in hand - and that Chris Powell would have kept us up anyway. But if he can come in and get us playing decent football again I'll take my hat off to him.11
-
Riga with no Dyer, no Matthew, no 'mastermind' Fraeye, no games in hand.
Good luck mate, you'll need it.11 -
Karel cant be part of the staff though, if Riga comes in we need a experience coach to work with him like DM & AD did before.0
-
Didn't he turn Harriet into a goal scorer by the end of the season ?1

The Belgian Hokey Cokey
You put your Riga in your Riga out
In out, In out, & shake it all about
You do the Hokey Cokey & You Turn Around
That's Why We Want You OUT OUT OUT
Chorus -
Whoa The Hokey Cokey
Whoa The Belgian Hokey Cokey
Whoa The Hokey Cokey
That's Why We Want You OUT OUT OUT
Repeat for Luzon, Peeters, Johnson, Poyet etc, etc.21 -
Riga is a Championship experienced manager. He kept us up 2 years ago, with a worse squad and he even had a spell at that other basket case Blackpool.valleynick66 said:On the assumption they will not yet appoint a British or Championship experienced manager it has to be a step forward from KF.
A little step forward only but better than nothing if true.0 -

I'd say Riga is an experienced manager.cafcnick1992 said:I felt an affinity towards Riga but seriously we need to stop playing games and appoint an experienced manager.

If Riga comes back on a 6 months contract he is a Desperate man.Just_Llera said:If Riga comes back then he is an actual moron. He knows that he will have no input in signings and has been screwed over by Duchatelet twice already.
If Riga comes back on a 18 months contract he is learning.
The squad last time was weaker but stayed fit in the run in.
This team struggles to go the first half without getting an injury.
The spine of the team changes every week, so no wonder we are a shambles.
Support the team (and Riga) not the Regime.
The battle goes on,
On and off the pitch.2 -
LOL.
Do you remember those days - and they weren't so long ago - when the fans of other clubs held us up as an example of how to run a club?
If this comes about - and if I was JR I think I would tell Roland where to go stick his offer - then I can only welcome Riga back. (He won me over last time). But I can't help but feel that he used his share of good luck up last time and without the coaching team and players he had at his disposal then, this could have a much different outcome.
Still, I bet Callum Harriott must be doing handstands at the news.1 -
Yes Riga is an Experienced Manager which is why he is probably on a lot more than the other clowns and why again he will be till the end of the season #ToomuchforRoland2

He scored about 3 goals under Riga. So, in a word, no.letthegoodtimesroll said:Didn't he turn Harriet into a goal scorer by the end of the season ?
