One hopes Scott’s savvy enough to not restrict the search to the same old names. If Appleton or the Cowley’s get the job I will be at my lowest ebb of supporting charlton
Scraping the bottom of the barrel in our managerial search. Neither of them are exciting appointments & show no ambition, but I guess that's a sign of where we are as a club these days.
Seems a bit more steely and wont take the shit whereas Cowley looks like that weirdo down the pub who wants to be your mate whilst trying to sponge a pint!
Neither have been promoted from this level. Both failed at their most recent jobs, Appleton at Blackpool and Cowley at Pompey. Hopefully others are being interviewed as both of these scream of mid-table and sacked next September

At least Mark Hudson ticks the box with links to us.
We'd stand a chance of promotion then - Seeing that 1975 (?) was the last time we won something with a Manager, with zero Charlton connections prior to taking on the role.
I don’t really have an opinion on the Cowleys one way or the other but in the position the club finds itself I’m amazed that people are saying no based on style of football. There is only one priority and that’s to win promotion. Nothing else. I really don’t care how that’s achieved because if we don’t achieve that relatively soon we might not ever achieve it as the football club we know.
At Portsmouth Cowley finished 10th in his first season and was then sacked in January of the next season with them sitting in 12th.
They then fell to 15th before Mousinho was appointed and got them to 8th.
Not at all inspired by Appleton or The Cowleys. Why do we need to bring managers in who have been sacked and on the way down? Cheap bloody options again. Richardson or Bowyer for me if we cant/won't get Moore.

Would rather see how Jason Pearce does with the team, than those two
Didn't do much wrong with the U18s last season.
Depressing

Richardson would be my choice from that list

Bailey (ex-Player) | Lawrence (Reserve Team) | Curbs (ex-Player) | Powell (ex-Player) | Bowyer (ex-Player)
Have been the only successful Managers since.
None of the names mentioned by Cawley get me excited. All recent failures. Should be looking at someone with their stock rising, not stagnating.
