I have decided to not dedicate too much time, to thinking about who is going to be the next short term manager of Charlton Athletic. It will never be who I want and so why get excited or worried, it is going to happen anyway.
As I said a while ago, Darren Moore is the only candidate that does not divide the fans. on that basis alone he should be given the job
He had problems with the owner at Wednesday, I'd be amazed if he came here for another dose of problems.
If a manager can’t handle problems he may as well find himself a different career. No manager is ever satisfied with the players he has and no owner is happy unless they are winning. There will always be conflict at some point.
If he didn’t want the gig he wouldn’t have gone for the interview.

************ Chasniri is a very difficult chairman, as unpopular up there as Dushitelet with us.

Not sure he'd have the same issue. The main players in this appear to be staying well away. Then we have Methven who has kind of said (Whether you believe him?) that he will leave the football stuff to football people.
So I guess the only person keeping the manager in check will be Andy Scott?
So hopefully he should not have to deal with a buffoon similar to Sandgaard

I think everyone would be pretty happy with Leam Richardson too
I would not go as far as “happy”, but certainly not against him, which is important. At least he would be given a chance. I am not sure the other candidates would and it would not take much for some fans to turn on them.
Appleton’s record as a manager is shockingly awful - I’d take the Cowleys over him any day
Their stats can't be hidden but for every manager there's the context behind them to consider. If only managers with high win percentages were offered work, he'd be one of many permanently unemployed.
Including interim positions, he's managed or assisted in all four divisions and has been moderately successful in L1 with both Oxford and Lincoln without getting promoted out of it. I don't think he is poorly regarded within the industry though.
Whoever gets it I wish well and I won't be "done" with the Club, but I can't see him finding London and us an attractive proposition. I think it unlikely he'll take it if offered, but it depends how desperate for work he is I suppose.

Going for Appleton not only ruins the interminable joke, but underscores we're a shit club in a shit league.
Powell won't come, so for me it's really only Moore out of the names mooted that shows any ambition, and he strikes me as the sort of person who'd get the club. Maybe Nathan Jones - I do think he'd get us promoted, but showed his limitations in his last role.
In a strange way, a lot of the people who don't want the job are the ones we need. It is possible, even likely, there is a gem out there but I would say the best 'interview' in terms of finding him is seeing somebody do the job and all those applying for our job will have suceeded and failed. That is why I favour giving Pearce a few games. Not because I know he will be a success, but he might be and if he isn't it is easier to go to option B. A new manager that fails will cost a lot of money.

It also shows what a good job the previous Southampton manager was doing!
I wouldn't have powell or bowyer purely because you should never go back
Whoever it is needs to be backed with decent experienced players and time. We can't expect any long term success if we are constantly churning the squad with 10+ players each season. Every year you have to expect that 1 or 2 of the successful players will be sold on. Will that money be reinvested? It worries me that Powell turned us down because of the 'plan'.

This.
It used to be that a summer "rebuild" would consist of replacing a couple of players retiring, a couple coming to the end of their contracts and 1 or 2 being sold.
Now every summer we have to replace half the squad as 4 or 5 are out of contract, 5 loanees go back and we move on a few who are now out of favour.

Come on guys, Appleton? Really?
Then again Methven, come on guys, Methven? Really?
