Yes we’re in deep doodoo. I gave up on this clutch of owners/smt around 6 weeks ago. Hope we get a ‘ strong man ‘ manager, not holding my breath. Bowyer for me but appears he’s not been contacted.
Personally I’d even welcome back Robinson, his scouse verbal diarrhoea worth putting up with if he could sort us out. Anybody but Appleton!
Pol pot?
Why are you so against Appleton?
I am certainly not "pro" him but he seems perfectly qualified to be the manager of a league 1 club. What has he done that's so bad you would have anybody else other than him?

Pol Pot ticks the ‘nasty bastard’ box that some of our fans seem desperate for. I’d like to see Charlie Kirk pull out of a challenge when there’s a long-dead murderous tyrant glowering at him on the sidelines.

Appleton is up there with how I felt about Russel Slade coming in. Vanilla.
Add Adkins to that list
Dunno...Adkins made some good videos...😉
Especially sunny morning walkabout videos, "The sun is shining, the birds are singing and yet again, Charlton are losing ..... and it's a lovely sunny day!"
And don't forget the importance of making your bed.
I'm pretty convinced that whoever we get won't be a big upgrade.
Next appointment is absolutely crucial, without sounding too doomsday, balls this one up, and they’ll be little left of the club in league 2, we need someone who can unite the fans, and not be so naff they’ll get the heave ho by Christmas.
More realistically, a poor appointment will leave us stuck in mid table mediocrity for the 3rd season running.

Make no mistake a poor appointment could leave us in the 4th division for the first time in our history.

It would have to be a TERRIBLE appointment to do that, and realistically that's not going to happen. The likes of Appleton and the Cowleys are unexciting, but they're also both safe pairs of hands as well.

Totally agree but that's why I am less open to a gamble as many are.
A half decent manager will get us around 8th-12th, the likes of Appleton and Cowley are half decent.
A gamble on someone who has never managed or only in the Belgium 4th division, the India Premier league or at the University of Bath could get us in the play offs but could also get us relegated.
Some might think it's refreshing, I think it's idiotic.
The issues that have lead to this situation need to be resolved else we won't ever attract someone "exciting" and if we did they would fail anyway.

Exactly how I see it as well.
We get in a manger from Mumbai it could work but if it doesn't, more compensation they'll need to pay out and we could be right in the shit and then no one really will want to take it on.
Cowley in particular will give us an outside chance of play offs but at the very least not make the season a disaster, sadly enough that will do me for now, what a time
The fact that this man, who was a meme on this site before memes were even a thing is actually going to be our next manager sums up how fucking horrific it is. Piss poor
Cheer up, it could be Kenneth Williams!
At least he would stiffen up the back four & pull off anyone not giving their all
I will also add that I really hope whoever gets the job has the opportunity to bring in their own coaching team as otherwise we will continue to see the elements of an amateurly coached team that has led us to where we are.
Yes indeed. That way when the inevitable next round of sackings comes around, the club has to pay off the manager they appointed, but all the helpers who came in as well ....
I don't worry too much about who they give it to. I can't influence it so no point in worrying about it. Whoever it is has a hell of a job on their hands. And I very much doubt anyone will last that long...which is possibly why they are having trouble getting someone to accept.
The Phoenix Sports Team have drawn one and lost five out of their six games this season. Manager Steve O'Boyle is now bookies favourite to land the managers job at Charlton Athletic Football Club at odds of 1/500

No doubt a very good coach but hardly the sort of gamble we need to be making is it? If we could afford his wages, which as you say we can't.
Cue Appleton announcement!
And don't forget the importance of making your bed.

Like us he needs this to work and I think he will be good given his record at Lincoln and Oxford.
Onwards and upwards.
