I reckon that interview is about a week old, particularly since their retained list was posted around a week ago. This would have been part of the media event the day or so after.
A lot can happen in a week, and we may not have made contact at that point.
Well it would be our most ridiculous appointment ever by far, and we've had Karel Fraeye as manager.
Agreed entirely . But would it be a surprise ?
Yes 100%. TS has been naive, has over promised and made mistakes, but he’s never going to put his son in as manager. Leading analytics is completely different from managing the team.
Exeter supporting mate of mine reckons Taylor is having talks with Exeter today. No idea what that could mean just passing on what was said.
Crickey , he's not signed for us , and then decided to go back to Exeter?
Matt Taylor is checking the amount of money available on wages, transfers next season in League 1 with Exeter compared to what he have been told by Sandgaard.
Also Charlton critics will be on his back if Charlton finish 8th where Exeter will give him the freedom of the City if Matt finished in that position for the Devon club.
Only speculation still, but odds on now does mean a lot.
Personally, I am not sure Taylor is the best choice, has done a cracking job at Exeter, but I think Charlton might be a job too big for him..
My personal choice would be Michael Beale, no experience of managing yet, but has expeirence of working within big clubs and high expectations, I feel he has learned the trade, understanding of different styles and approaches from different managers and coaches.

I think Michael Beale would be the most exciting appointment and would be a clear sign of intent from TS.
But that shouldn’t mean Taylor would be a bad appointment. I think the players we have currently at the club would definitely benefit from his style of management.

Who ever gets the gig is under pressure to deliver a top 6 position. At least 50% of the fan/critic base will probably be negative because you are more likely to be correct whether it's Taylor or anyone else. That why Golfie has a good record of being correct !
I try not to give Sandgaard stick but his comments last time around about Michael Beale surely meant there was no chance of the assistant coach at Villa coming to Cafc now.
In my experience of football and life if you say negative comments which aren't constructive comments it will always linger and comeback to bite you. Using Michael as a yardstick sounded like a faux pas to me.
I would've really praised Michael Beale after he applied last time but just said the time wasn't right but sure it will be for Michael soon; or not mention his name as it could've affected his job at Rangers or the Villa job. Probably the latter as I thought the guys who don't get the job would want it in the public domain if still employed.
Michael Beale after he ends the Summer transfer window with a handful of QPR rejects, a couple of acne-ridden loanees and a big money signing recovering from two ACLs and a bout of limes disease.

Respect that view but don't want Beale personally. He comes across as an exceptional football coach but being a manager is a different skillset. He could easily be a Les Reed in waiting.
Frankly yes. If that was the idea, TS could have had it done a week ago.
"After a long and rigorous selection process, it was clear to me that Martin was the best candidate for the club. We interviewed some young and experienced candidates, but Martin's enthusiasm and knowledge of football could not be matched".
Dear diary, I keep on coming here every day with a prayer in my heart for the resurrection of our new manager - saviour - Shepherd !!! One to dog us round and round league one's meadows. Alas, baaaa, maybe there won't be one. Maybe there's never was one, maybe we're not sheep at all, maybe just a horse with no name? Or a core with no flame, door with no aim, whores with no game..?

Talking about plans for next seasons squad for Exeter. Either the interview is old or he isn't joining us in the next day or so.

Because there wouldn't be any posts as Sandgaard is interviewing and all the candidates have been mentioned with opinions about them: pro and cons.
I know more about Mark Warburton and Michael Beale than I do about guys I have known for decades.
Please add new information on anyone that hasn't been mentioned ?

They are, probably the WilliamHill API messing up.
We’ve got a fabulous academy for him to work with.
His teams play attacking football.
The Valley would be full.
The club teams he has managed have always been a challenge for him, which he obviously thrives on.
He would fully understand and buy into the Addicks story.
Pretty much the whole football world loves him.
Has the club still got that lovely apartment in Docklands?
Done deal……
