Wish him nothing but the very best. He's lucky to get a second chance in some ways - I think Curbs said about 60% of first time managers never get another chance - so I hope he is a huge success there.
As others have said, a fresh start and being in charge of a bunch of players he won't be so friendly with as here might be the making of him.
I still believe he was an extremely intelligent footballer who, had he more natural talent/ability would have graced the premier league for much of his career.
Those type of players tend to make very good managers, he's also a top bloke as we all know which only helps.
I wonder in any Charlton fans will start supporting AFC now that he’s in situ? After the sacking, I did read on Twitter that some fans were done with Charlton

Surely they support Charlton and not a manager?
You have seen some of the comments on here since Jacko got sacked right? 😂
Good luck to him, he deserves a chance. It wasn’t working with us, so we move on and I certainly wouldn’t begrudge him any success if he can make his philosophy work, it wasn’t for me but supported him as much as possible until I think the inevitable happened. However, sandgaard HAS to make the next appointment the right one otherwise people will be saying I told you so!!.😬

Missing you already, Jacko but 100% sure you will be appreciated at your new "home".
I wish you everything you could possibly wish for yourself & know you will give it your all.
Bless your cotton socks x
Note to TS....Remember that Joni Mitchell song ? " You don't know what you've got 'til it's gone " ? .....
I appreciate you are a big fan of JJ Fanny, however if, and at the moment it’s a big if, the next bloke is celebrating on the pitch at the end of next season, we will all be there with him and singing TS new promotion single. It really wasn’t working and I think the change was needed, it’s down to Jackson to prove Thomas made the wrong call.
I wish Jacko all the best, but also have no great love for Wimbledon, even though I have massive respect for the efforts made to return to Plough Lane. Financially things are tight there, no rich Danish American owner to cover the losses, so I have no confidence that they'll bounce straight back.
While Jacko might moan about his injured strikers, Mark Robinson has far more reason to feel hard done by, losing his main striker in January to Wrexham 2 divisions lower.

I'm pleased for JJ. He didn't want to go back as an assistant. I wonder what the realistic ambition is for a club like Wimbledon in 2022. No crazy gang in this reincarnation. A local club where many folk have worked hard after the original was hijacked to get back home. Wish JJ well.
Bottom end of the Championship should be achievable long term you’d hope. Certainly has the fan base.
They averaged crowds of 7500 this season which doesn't even put them in the top 10 in league one. Hardly a sleeping giant.

They only took 1,233 to The Valley, a Saturday game, which also indicates that their fanbase isn't that large.
Although I am not a fan of 352 wasn't Jackson's win record the best in Charlton History.
Must be something other than playing style and results factor overall.
I wonder what.
Oh come on stop trying to big up last seasons results ! The problem quite clearly was that even whilst winning the performances were dire, absolutely no excuse for the dross that we played regardless of win ratios. Bums on seats is the driving force and apart from us nutters who would bother crossing the road to watch that tripe ?
I am not bigging up anything...his win ratio is 47%. The best by a Charlton player... that is not tripe , it is fact. A strange fact admittedly but one influenced by not many draws and quite a lot of defeats. There were 4 or 5 good performances though against the better teams.
I was surprised Jackson went on holiday with Dobson. I don't see how you can be seen as in authority doing that .
Mostly I was bored though by the dire crap, especially at Accrington and more so at Ipswich. Something was very wrong in the dressing room by then.
Did he though? It was just a picture of them having dinner together while on holiday I thought?
His win ratio was based on how many games? There are other managers who may have had as good a ratio (or better) over the same number of games during part of their time as manager.
For example in the 1934/5 season Charlton won 23 of their 42 matches, well over 50%.
Don’t know who the manager was though.
So you don't know the manager of Charlton in the 1934/35 season? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
It was a long time ago, and football was a completely different game back then.

Last season they relied on the loan market a lot. I hope he hasn't burnt any bridges with the PL clubs...
