  • An ego the size of his bank account.  I'm surprised he did not base himself in Biggin Hill so he could have flown into work with us.

  • All if's and but's, with Methven allegedly on gardening leave, and with the possibility we reach the play off final, will he attend.
    Think that would be very telling if the parting is amicable.

    He'd go for the freebie.

    "Andy Scott and Charlie Methven have to leave NOW!"

    "No CEO and no Director of Recruitment doesn't smack of a stable organisation!"

    Give me a hint? What DO you actually want?

    Prem in 5 years. Europe in eight.😉

    Wearing his Oxford Utd shirt.

  • I had a dream last night, one of those when you wake up in the middle of the night, and think it’s real.

    We were playing Peterborough with one of those old fashioned brown and heavy, leather footballs, that were all the rage many moons ago.

    But even stranger, Charlie was playing in goal for us, as a parting gift, wearing a Brian Clough green, goalies top, made a few saves, even tipped one onto the bar, bizarre…
    Was he wearing shorts, or red/pink strides?
  • I think it’s very funny that these individuals feel
    the need to tell us their personal observations on linked in (I assume it’s there) 


    It is what Linkedin etc are for.

    It gives us fans an update of situation.

    It also further suggests, to me at least that Barry Higson was let go, presumably because the commercial team aren't bringing in the numbers that the club expects.

    Not quite it’s purpose. 

    It’s not an excuse to avoid a comms statement and to let people read between the lines.

    It is what it is for FOR THE INDIVIDUALS who us it.

    Whether the club should make a comms statement around every member of staff who leaves or joins is another matter.
  • Tom Enefer next?
  • Did anyone else read the LinkedIn posts above and think, "Candygram for Mungo"?!

    (Probably just me)

  • Go on, then. Which one?
  • We all care yes, but i feel the reaction to all these vacancies would be far more dramatic if we were not sat in 4th. People let a lot slide if the team is doing well.
    If people don't perceive there to be a problem, they won't generally look for the cause of one.
  • I do think these jobs in football attract a certain 'type'. Can't speak for Methven but I did meet Sutherland before even his first Charlton days.

    Let's just say that my overriding impression of him was of someone who wasn't short of an ego.
    True…..but he’s a great fella nonetheless.😏
  • Go on, then. Which one?
    Maybe one that hasn't worked in the funeral business for years. (Although that would probably make him well qualified to deal with everyday trauma.)
  • Whatever the personal qualities and abilities are I know that Sutherland is a through and through Charlton Athletic fan, and Methven is a through and through Oxford United fan.
  • Yeah, it is so great that the owner of the Valley is a St Truiden fan.
