    don't know why we didn't look at him, fifth in the National League is not to be sniffed at.
  • As boring and easy an explanation as it is, I’m guessing if it’s a done deal with Garner, TS wants to come over have a face to face and be here for the announcement, which I think is the right thing to do. If TS wasn’t here for it people would jump on his back and say he doesn’t care.🤷🏻‍♂️, if it is Garner, I don’t have a clue about him which really doesn’t matter as long as he gives me an enjoyable winning team to support, the same will apply for whomever takes over.
  • I would sacrifice the enjoyment bit for the win bit.

    For added context, and, because "hUr DuR wHy YOu hAtE MaRTiN tHoUGh" (because apparently that's the reason) a look at the job skills requirement for an U23 performance analyst at Man city (yes I know city are at the elite end of the footballing spectrum







    And a job description for a recruitment analyst at spurs:

    Good to confirm that absolutely anyone with half a brain could do these jobs with minimal training.
    You mean an accountant ?

    200 or so new posts…any word on Garner or a new manager? 
    Most likey all done but no announcement till end of next week when TS is over 

  • I thought this topic was done to death a few months ago. TS stated somewhere that MS identified the players, SG negotiated the transfer fee and contracts and TS signed it off
    Manager identifies the players and positions he wants and SG team does the rest …

    As Curbs himself said “ all Jackson had to worry about at CAFC was the team on the pitch and recruitment “
  • There'll be an unnecessary rift between Cawley and the Club me reckons.

    precisely what esm says ts said above
  • At the Valley today. Quizzed the head of comms who revealed absolutely nothing about the new manager. But the refurb of main reception looks very snazzy. Henry Irving, reporting live from SE7 for Charlton Live TV
    Think you should re evaluate you interviewing technique Henry.

    Changes? A bloke who is pumping his money into the club wants his players not to be unfit and train with more intensity to deliver football results? Not even something worth talking about, Christ 
    It depends what he suggested. He could have suggested to JJ that training be more intense and focused or he could have stepped onto the training pitch and started offering specific advice and suggestions. Both make him look like a tit IMO, but the former is more forgivable. 
  • Chris Powell isn’t going to work for Thomas Sandgaard, Rich Cawley hasn’t made a mistake re Garner and the reason I know about MS attempting to make a change to training is because the professionals were incredulous.
    Stroppy coaches overseeing very poor performance sulking that someone asks them why don't they try something different? 

    We have had poor coaching in the first team for at least two years. Need a lot of changes top to bottom. 
    And MS is the man with the answers? If only he’d got here sooner. 
  • My brother in law claims Ben Garner is a "pound shop Ten Haag"

    All because I compared Garner to the new Ipswich gaffer

    God I hope this works out.....if it ever bloody happens

    Whats so special about Ten Haag? Ajax have been a top club in Netherlands long before he managed them. Yes they had a good cup run but Greece won a cup in a similar format, wheres that manager now?

    Now now, not on this thread please if you don’t mind.

    AFKA has spoken………twice!
  • Anyone who thinks that having the owner’s unqualified son in a position of authority in the football set-up is remotely sensible is clearly capable of any mental gymnastics necessary to believe what they want to believe. It’s the same delusional thinking which has sought to justify the spivs, Duchatelet and ESI. It doesn’t of itself make Thomas Sandgaard the same as any of those, but it’s unlikely to be a good thing.

    We all want things to be better and to get out of this shitty division, but we are here because of a succession of toxic owners, not toxic fans. As long as the club continues to fail there will be people looking for explanations. They are not the problem.


    But it wasn’t working 🤷‍♀️
    So it was continuing to fail………with or without the input of any owner or son.

    JJ was asked to step up, along with all his colleagues and they couldn’t deliver.

    Are you saying that’s TS & MS fault too?

    I genuinely want to know what you think or know.

     I’m more than gutted it didn’t work for JJ but something wasn’t right.

    But but but it's the negativynof the fans that has dragged the club down.  I know because the rose tinted one told me on Charlton Life............... 

    Anyway Garner has not left Swindon but they have started looking for a new manager, for what it's worth.
