Sandgaard - An occasional vignette of ego

Overall a force for good with the women's team* and Charlton TV. That and seeing off Southall et al is all I've got.
*The failed, foolish attempt to change their name shouldn't be what defines his legacy given the progress made under him.

Certainly Thomas has an ego that needs massaging on a regular basis and I think he thought owning a successful football club would give him that but failed to realise it was very difficult to make it successful. Once the adulation of saving the club from crooks stopped and criticism started I think he lost interest. A movie no matter how worthy will be yesterday’s news very quickly and he’ll move on to the next “look at me, love me” project. Hard to dislike the bloke and I wish him well.
I can’t stand him. The most positive thing you can say about him is that he wanted to succeed/ didn’t set out with negative intentions, but I think you could almost argue the same for RD… he was an obscenely arrogant and deluded guy and by some accounts it sounds like actually quite unpleasant, and the way he went out was also not dissimilar to RD, seemed like very little regard for the club and his sole interest being trying to recoup his losses (substantial amount of which were self inflicted).Hard not to dislike the bloke, I do not wish him well.Bad man - can’t really comment with proper qualification but his self interest, arrogance and the reported treatment of some club staff suggest it’s a discussion.Bad owner - absolutely 100% yes. Again, to compare against the standards that preceded him is mental. He was an awful, awful owner there is absolutely no argument that can be made to the contrary. Less awful than Southall et al - yes. Less awful than RD - debatable - Parzysek Vs Schwarz, potato patato. Objectively awful viewing his tenure in isolation from those before him - indisputable.Not attempting to dig you specifically out , by the way, just infuriates me to see these despicable, arrogant conmen, egomaniacs, chancers, liars etc etc given undue credit or not being given the satisfactory discredit for their roles. Sandgaard is one of them.This club is dying before our eyes and every villain who played a part in that should be remembered as such, the only martyrs in this are the fans and the jackos , powells and bowyers who have been dragged through this shambles with selflessness and dignity.2 -
Bloke was a massive prick. Way he treated Jackson underlined what a clueless ego merchant he was. Only good thing about this season is we're not subject to his awful poxy vanity project of a song (his whole ownership was a vanity project) blaring out of the Valley before each game and within a millisecond of a rare home win to ensure that the focus was all him.
Thank God he's no longer involved in any capacity. Made that boring old Belgian weirdo that's still got his withered claws around our club's neck look half competent.
Fuck the lot of them.5 -
