    I had been told by some reputable individuals that he had gone. Maybe tomorrow is his last game? Very strange if not, was assured there hadn't been a U-turn. Let's wait and see. 
  • Didn't Holden manage his last game after he had been told he was gone?

    I think whatever the outcome now, it’s very strange. There is no normal explanation for what’s happening.

    So he has been sacked but maybe he might be managing the team tomorrow?

     Good god yes. And it was one of the worst I've ever seen. Madness if they've done it again

    It makes no sense to let him have tomorrow, no chance we win with him in charge.

    Only for old time’s sake though.

    We are such a weird football club! So so weird! I am sure we are unlike any other club in the world! 
  • This is very funny. Who’s been telling everyone that he’s gone?
    This is an absolute shambles.

    Would never have happened under Keohane's watch..........
  • Perhaps we are waiting for The Traitors to leave their order of execution on his chair in the press room.
    Appleton takes his hand out of his pocket, revealing a protective shield...

    Maybe he is going to say yes I am off but I've agreed to take the game tomorrow to help them out !!  :disappointed: (I jest it wouldn't happen)

    Who knows - is all this to see who leaks stories maybe ??

    Whereas in reality isn't it just a case of his results means he must go regardless of anything else and therefore the speculation and stories is only normal
  • very telling that Louis chose to mention the quote “embargo” ……… it all sounds a little chaotic at best and a complete shambles of how his removal is being handled…… there must be zero chance he can carry on after the past 48 hour sh!t show

    I think he was just pre-empting everyone saying "well he did the presser but we haven't read anything so he must have been sacked"

    Embargo !!

    Who else cares about Charlton any more?

    Never usually mentions the fact there’s an embargo

    It's fairly common for pressers to be embargoed so wouldn't read anything into that in itself. If he took training this morning and then did the presser it's fairly nailed on he'll in in charge tomorrow. Unless the club heirarchy has completely lost the plot.

    Because nobody usually cares enough about Charlton pre match press conferences to want instant quotes as they happen - RC probably just setting expectations ie no he will not be live tweeting it.
  • This is utterly bizarre

    Cawley literally said that Michael Appleton has started his pre-match press conferences…so I wouldn’t read too much into the “embargo” comment
  • It must be a new thing now that you get the sack but you must manage one more game before you are allowed to clear your office.

    I'm just baffled at this point.

    could it be that we have sacked him but because we're such a basket case of a club that nobody actually told Appleton he was sacked?
