Tweets and videos of man waffling or an owner who actually has the freehold of the ground and training ground?
Tough call.
It's 2020, so I guess we'll go with some videos. Everyone likes videos.
Your 12 posts since joining last month have been very positive, thanks for the contributions
Sorry mate, everything about this new guy is great!
I particularly like how he's a successful businessman with zero visibility online before owning Charlton and brief look at his previous directorships (both of which lasted comfortably under a year) brings nothing but clues of success!
Better?
Everyone's gotta start somewhere, moosh. Give the bloke a chance, and if it all goes tits up as you and a handful of others keep insinuating, the rest of us will apologise to you all profusely.
Nb - I think everyone is aware that there have been suggestions MS has a bit of history and is a bit of a rookie when it comes to the job in hand, but I also think some just want to give him a chance for the time being.
Cut the fella some slack, sure if he’s dropping clangers let him know, we have been wallowing in mediocrity for the last 6 years under Roland, even when we did have a CEO , we did better than when we didn’t have one!
The damage that has been done mustn’t and won’t be forgotten, but give the geezer a chance, he’s only been in the door a few weeks!
So far MS has done well in terms of connecting with the fans and that is both welcome and needed.
There are legitimate questions and concerns about the split in ownership of the club and the ground and other issues (see the "Who owns the Valley?" thread for a more in-depth debate) but it's too early to say IMHO either that everything is brilliant, we've got our Charlton back or to say MS is a chancer and we're all doomed.
The proof of the pudding is in the eating and they've only just stuck it in the oven.
For what it’s worth i think Southall has landed right on his feet. No way is he qualified to run a Championship club. Katrien was the same and it ended badly. However, I think this will be different because Katrien was up her own arse and couldn’t connect with the fans. As long as you keep us in mind you’re half way there.
Have switched off notifications for his Tweets. Got fed up with my phone buzzing all night long with pictures of, as nice as they are, other people’s children
This isn’t as strange as it sounds.......he could at least be encouraged to come on here and acquaint himself with some Grapevine49 posts and thus become aware that we have such a talented individual in our fan base. G49 is retired I understand, he just may be interested in a project that would be very close to his heart, though I admit, I don’t know in what capacity that might be. Like Addickted has said......”He could do a lot worse”.
He's already got one lifer employed as a 'consultant'. What exactly he consults in I am unsure.

Don't ask for his user name as Admin prefer such things not to be revealed.

THIS. Couldn't agree more. We will be much more able to judge in August.

Got head hunted. Some think I went above their heads, but I was approached and gave in to the demands. It was me or Maddison so only ever gonna be one outcome

I like everyone until i have a reason to think otherwise.
You’re a positive person and I’m a negative miserable old c**t

Some of you must be a nightmare to work with!

Charlton Fans:
As I get to know them I continue to be emotionless.

Mr Irving said it in a much more balanced way.
I say keep those expectations low. I can smell a bullshitter a mile off. When they own more than just the liabilities of the club I'll cheer up a bit.
Is that you Thomas?
It's the way you tell 'em.
The caterers.
