    The club needs uniting and it needs to regain its identity and spirit and get some momentum back. I'm not sure kewell would give us that but anybody who gets the team winning probably would to an extent I guess. The ideal way would be to get some club men back at the helm. Bowyer and jj have been a good step in that direction but the icing on the cake would surely be for the likes of curbs and peacock to come into the set up in some way as well. If I was the new owner I would have been onto curbs before I even considered bidding - what a buzz that would create

    But how awful would it be if it went wrong.

    KEWELL DID NOT SO GOODBYE TO PLAYERS. THIS WAS A FALSE STORY PUT OUT BY A FAKE TWITTER ACCOUNT

    I Just said it was being suggested, I didnt say I believed it, I copied it from the Forever Charlton site from Wyn Grants post.
    I think @AFKABartram was a bit annoyed because you are at least the 4th person to post that news on here today if you read back through this thread...

    It begs the question, what is defined as wrong. We've dropped so far down that play-offs are a dream. What is needed is passion for the club. Success yes, but the treatment received from Roly has been tant amount to neglect/abuse. We need owners that want to heal the club from the bottom up....Boots the Chemists should have something for it :smiley: Bring back some of the passionate club servants (at all levels) definately.

    A watched kettle never boils.

    If we all stop thinking about the takeover it will happen.

    So at 9.55 am tomorrow we all have to focus on the sound of one hand clapping for five minutes.

    If we all do it the takeover will be announced at 10.00 am

    I'm sorry I don't want Kewell. He not exactly set the world alight. Ps I've heard he doesn't like pot noodle or German horse

    Journo who us d to cover Charlton a lot, who then Went on to cover palace for the SLP and who now appears to work for Kent live!

    EDIT:
    Could be worth noting it appears Ritson was at the training ground earlier today covering the under 23s game vs CPFC

    Did not so? So what? Did not SHOUT good bye? Did not say goodbye? How rude.

    Can’t see a new owner paying compensation for a relatively inexperienced manager, when they’ve got two people in charge that know the players and have a chance of the play offs.
    Would be silly to further unsettle a squad that’s alread been badly disrupted over the last 4-6 weeks

    Nonsense to say England is the only country that places value on ex-players.

    Italy and Spain are just two.

    Personally I'd rather have a good manager over any ex- player but everything else being equal then knowing the club is an advantage.

    Gritt was and is much more a Charlton man than Curbs but we know who was the better manager.

    Curbs 16/1

    I feel I should contribute something significant at this juncture in the thread, by stating that I rather like Bexhill.

    Oh sorry. I thought you said "Brexit".
