If Jones was announced today would the result go down on his stats ?? As in his contract starts today & so the match falls into the period he was employed by the club.
Can see he might not want to start with a loss on his record....😄
Could also start with a win, and what a stat that would be ...
I don’t know about anyone else but I’m getting very nervous about the lack of announcement. Is it done and the comms people are doing their stuff or is it because we don’t want any distractions before a crucial game, or are negotiations still ongoing and Scott is the problem (again). Someone in the know put us out of our misery.
The LMA can’t hold any authoritative position in all of this though. Isn’t it effectively a Trade Union for managers ? Quite honestly what the effing he’ll has what job Nathan Jones got to do with them ?
I could be wrong but I think contracts have to sit within LMA and PFA framework for players and managers. We probably rarely hear about it as it will just be a formality

Nobody there works weekends.
It’s quite likely but given the whole industry and all their members do it’s a bit naff really.
So how come some clubs sack a manager and appoint a new one the following day. Does that mean the LMA have signed it off before the other is sacked? Sounds rubbish to me.
Love it or not, this group mean business, and fully understand the errors so far, I truly think this is an exciting time for us. This lot are truly behind us..
I feel the same. This season has been a disaster, but don’t forget Oxford only just stayed up last season. Think they picked 1 win in 20 in the back-end of last season. I’m hoping it is a case of they’ve taken a back seat for the first 6 months to allow the experience football people Scott/CM/Rodwell to show what they can do whilst learning in the background. The opposite to Sandgaard who thought it was easy. No one can argue that they’ve changed their strategy in funding this window. All Charlton fans want stability hopefully, Jones and the owners will provide this.
Agreed.. and I have been saying it for months.. things take times. But certain fans have made there minds up.. to suck on sour grapes
We get it. You don’t have to say it at the end of every post.
Not sure you do…
I do. You’re hurt because you’ve become the unofficial mouthpiece for the current regime and have taken a lot of stick as a result. Now you’ve developed this siege mentality and have to keep lashing out at your imagined enemies. There’s really no need though.
Ignoring him Dubai -I think he was the same with me when I was giving some info on here s few years back - ITK itis syndrome - the agitant thinks that coz u are giving info out that may be of interest to fellow fans, u r there to be shot at and generally abused when u do so - if the board were full of them, u wouldn’t bother but fortunately they are in the minority and hopefully he can get some cream for it - carry on with the info, I’m sure most appreciate it 👍
He does remind me of you actually. ITK then have a tantrum when challenged.
However, I do appreciate all info given sincerely, even when it turns out to be wrong. Just not keen on the repetitive attacks that come with it.
I’d say he contributes well to the forum - not surprised if he gets annoyed with the likes of u and similar - bumflufff or whatever his name was was another - contribute zero information and zero entertainment or interest on the board but constantly snipe away with snide comments - crack on mate if your happy with that
The irony of this part!!!
arghh - you were special - i'd say king of the tantrums - fluffy and u boat were like little irritating flies but you used to get all emotional as well - glad you seemed to have calmed down a bit and probably helps u seem to post less - well done
Again Ironic.
Glad someone seems to have lent you the family brain cell today. At least your sentences are vaguely coherent.
Rick and Paddy are arguing? Awesome. I hope it continues later
Haha, not an argument, just differing perspectives. I don't think Cawley actually is fed stuff by those with an agenda or anything, and "feed a line" was cynical of me.
I do think that the way things are circulated means conflicting info here and there, definitely to try and suit someone or another in an ownership/SMT that has so many stakeholders.

On 6 January 2016, Jones left his role as first-team coach with Brighton to become the new manager of League Two club Luton Town on a two-and-a-half-year contract.[23] He won 11 of his 21 matches in charge during the remainder of 2015–16, guiding the club away from the danger of relegation to an 11th-place finish.[24
Any truth in the rumour he got airlifted straight to London City Airport, at full time, and then fled to a more pleasurable job, hand feeding piranhas in The Amazon?

Kept them in the Championship in 19/20 too, they were 23rd when he was appointed.
I know some are jokey, but I don’t get the comments about him regretting it, being mad to take the job etc. Managers are egotistical, love a challenge and always want to be the person who turns a club’s fortunes around. He’ll be watching, first of all knowing he can’t do much worse and secondly knowing that all he needs is a couple of wins to be an instant hero.

Yep, he knows he has a reasonable squad that are underperforming. He will be confident that he will turn this around.
i reckon you can get better odds on derby going up than us going down but they didn't carve us open at will and create chance after chance.
jones will only be feeling low if he has created a Charlton life account today! I reckon that he believes he will get us 16th or above
Reckon this is gonna be a no expense spared announcement
with pyrotechnics of a large exploding table tennis table. Then, darkness, a
single spotlight goes onto the tunnel (so will have to be done at full-time
when it's dark, or you won't see the spotlight) the drum part from O Fortuna
Carmina Burana by Carl Orff will start and Jones does a reversed tunnel jump
followed by a tuck jump, into a double pike jump and two roly polys to follow,
through a guard of honour formed by members from The Vegan Society Against
Cruelty To Amoeba, which should bring him into the centre circle (as long as he
executes those moves correctly). Where the deafening sound from the rest of O
Fortuna Carmina Burana will be heard across SE7, and everyone from Hornfair
Park, down to The Barrier, from EA Turkish on the corner of Fairthorn Road,
across to Coop Funeral Directors opposite The Albion Public House, and everyone
between, will know, that Nathan has arrived.

He'll never take the job if he realises how useless we really are.
haha!
It's a done deal:
The table tennis table has been bought on eBay and pleased to say it wasn't a fire sale.
Jones is at the game. On the bench though.
"Alfie May on long throws.. yes that will do nicely"
