Welp, just in time for the Dennis "poison dwarf" Wise. Marvellous.

Probably a good decision by Charlton, though this means they might get a better one and perform better

Everyone is getting sacked at the minute, Hutchings has gone from Walsall today too! Sacking Parky is a bit harsh as they are doing ok in 5th but I suppose the board will have wanted automatic promotion, plus the new guys who have just taken over prob want their own men in. Still bit unfair though IMO

Risk though as they might get someone who performs worse!
The football league has gone sackings crazy! I make that 8 in a couple of weeks. Palace, Preston, Burnley, Walsall, Charlton, Bristol Rovers, Barnet and Hereford.
Plus Micky going to Sheffield United, that makes 10 clubs changing their managers. I suppose this is the effect of the transfer window.

It is of course ridiculous, they had some stat on the FLS the other day that just about half way through the season, half of the managers in the Championship have been sacked or have moved on.
Gus was right when he said there's not enough protection. How can you sack a manager in 5th place with every chance of the automatics? Although clearly their performance yesterday was woeful.

I'm not defending the sackings but I think most the managers will get a handsome pay off as most clubs would struggle to prove a sackable offence - especially Charlton !

Poyet's son plays there and lives very close but no way will he go. Bit harsh on Parkinson, his last 3 games haven't been easy and he only lost 1 of them.

I'm just glad Tony and Gus seem to have a good relationship, and Gus is a fantastic manager and Tony a fantastic chairman. we are quite lucky.

From what I read of Gus's interview, he suggested that the compensation for early acquittal was very low, whereas in Europe you are guranteed to be paid up to the end of your contract. I am not sure he is right there, because I am pretty sure it was commented that we were still paying off 3 different managers when Slade got sacked. Gus suggested that he had a deal where if he wanted to leave early he would have to pay off his contract in full, and vica versa.

A large chunk of Charlton's transfer budget will go on paying off his contract.

I think Parky has done a good job so far. Prior to the take over, with no money and no real superstars in the side to be in 5th place and still with a chance of going up, was a good achievement. Maybe the new owners don't trust him with their money, if they have any?
