Article sounds better but sadly I have lost faith in all words from the club now.
But it does look a lot clearer from that the reason for the non-Castore kit looks firmly down to Castore rather than the club owing Castore hundreds of thousands, which I think was rumoured.
Agreed but i fail to see how the club have been selling kit in the shop yet don't have any to give to the academy teams?
The club aren’t selling kit are they? Castore run the club shop, Castore are selling replica kit.
I don't know how it works for football kit, but here in the US, replica is just that. It looks like the same kit the players wear but it’s made differently. You can buy authentic player type shirts, but they cost much more.
With the NFL/NBA and top football teams you do have differences between the replica and the authentic, player issue shirts. You can even buy the player issue ones but for about 50% more.
However, I highly doubt for a League One club that there is any difference between the replica shirts and those that the players wear.
Even if there is, it is strange that Castore wouldn’t want the academy to wear their product over Hummel’s, even if they are replicas.
Perhaps we can have a factual statement about staff turnover - numbers not names?
No, thought not.
The statement was about the academy. Steve Avory stated nobody let go.
Staff turnover isn’t the same as people being let go. Both within the academy and elsewhere in the club there appears to be an unusually high turnover of staff.

That was always rubbish since Castore will pay the club to provide the (core) kit in return for the right to sell it (and royalties on retail). The club may have pay for kit that isn’t in the contract, at wholesale prices, but that’s not going to be an outstanding debt if it hadn’t been supplied.
Who makes up this shit... unless he plays 2 consecutive league games 🤣 like anyone would have this in a contract, and he could still play every other game without changing his pay
Not bothered by JFC’s contract situation either. There’s bigger things at play re: TS’ ownership than JFC being prevented from playing because it will cost double his wages

Seems to be a lot false rumours being put out there. Surely not Charlton fans
Like everyone else I have no idea what is going on with JFC but I would bet a pretty large wedge that this latest rumour is bollocks ! Nobody would even think of a clause like that. I think it more likely that he isnt good enough at the moment, the last couple of times he has played he looked miles of the pace. His injury is a tough one to get over after all

I don't think anyone else cares enough to make up fake charlton rumour. They'll be attention seeking chatlton fans
I know it to be rubbish Airman, but some people believe every rumour, particularly when nothing official is said to oppose it.
Agreed but considering the owner, who previously couldn't keep off social media, has now taking to hiding in his bunker, rumour and supposition will be almost the order of the day.

TBF, I hope we put the same clause in Chuk’s contract!

As already said by others, the kits made for fans are often made from different materials than the match worn stuff.
That could explain it? Or Castore are making the decision that they would rather try to sell the shirts than supply the U11s.
Is it just me or are the majority moaning about the attendances the ones that aren't attending?
i don’t blame him for wanting out, if he does. All the crap he gets on here, i’m surprised he’s still around. How many more owners are we going to hound out?
Agreed not sure he wants out , think people are very blind when it comes to football and owners , just because you get a new owner don’t mean your suddenly going to spend 10 mill on new players ( to be fair to TS not many other league one clubs have spent as much as us since COVID only Ipswich ? ) … who do you want someone like TS who running it like a business which will mean the club will still be a club in 10 years time might not spectacular but there will be good times and bad times or do you want someone who comes in like a bull in a China shop might buy success for 12 months but then puts the club whole existence in doubt because they run out of money …
personally after the last 8 years of neglect and assist stripping .. we need the calm business approach it’s the fans who need to adjust their expectations
Just when I think you have reached the bottom of stupidity you go and surpass yourself. Either that or you really are a wum.
It’s a load of crap. STOP GETTING YOUR NEWS FROM RANDOMS ON TWITTER.
It’s not. . . Also been told this . . .on a couple of separate occasions and they were more than happy to tell me. He has an automatic wage rise if he plays 2 league games. Club don’t want to pay it. Contract was auto renewed so he didn’t have a choice. Rather than slag people with info why not just keep quiet 🤫
The reported £600k for the womens team made me think he was flush because that’s the last thing to spunk dough on if you were on a budget
He was attempting to show off by pretending he deeply cares about women's football and he has lots of money.
Its a way of getting brownie points...even though he's old, married, none of them would be interested in him and no one cares.
Still, I hope it at least helped them out and they used the money to invest in their squad.
Take advantage of it
In the USA Womens football is bigger than Mens so, as a Danish American, perhaps he thought the Womens team would be a good short to medium term investment.
The Euros success in the summer might mean revenue for successful Womens teams in the future particularly if England have a decent World Cup next year too.
Whilst I can understand his investment in the Womens team I am completely unenamoured with much else of how he is running our Club.

What you are saying is different to what was said before. One of you is wrong 😑

The idiot from another planet thrives on a positive reputation and believes he should have a chair on Danish plonker dragons den.
I think he is undecided about whether or not he will try and sell the club.
I guess his priority is to stop losing money.
That was important for him as soon as he found out he no longer gave a shit about the football club in general
JFC... MEH!
