Gus's ego is such that he'll be fullyexpecting a plum English job in the Autumn when the sackings start. If he doesn't get one, he'll maybe panic and go for a job abroad. At which point Charlie becomes surplus to requirements.
Yes, Charlie has a place in our hearts - gave it everything as a player and plenty of giggles afterwards (We should get over Gus and Tano as well - life's not too bad now is it)

Cracking bloke in my opinion. Many opportunities to meet him personally in the past and he has been terrific every single time.

Almost ashamed to say that my enduring image of Charlie Oatway will be of having shouted 'F*CK OFF CHARLIE!' from H Block every time he trotted over to participate in a gormless short corner. My bad

I always thought he was bit of a knob to be honest.

I'm sure he's a lovely bloke. But footballing-wise he got elevated ridiculously WAY beyond his worth. Be honest, who would disagree with that - including Charlie himself?
Very much this

Yup. And the qualifications of Nathan Jones also. And not impressed by either, having seen their patent lack of intelligence on the pitch. Why on earth should we believe they have more to offer off the pitch with a couple of the equivalent of cycling proficiency badges under their belts than they had to offer on the pitch?

What they did as players has no bearing on their ability to coach (or in Jonah's case manage). I seem to remember Nathan getting us 4 valuable points between Christmas and New Year to get us out of the relegation zone. Let's face it, what you or I know about coaching football wouldn't even cover a pinhead.

Sorry, but with all due respect, I refuse to accept that stupid ex-Albion players suddenly become non-stupid backroom staff. Why would anyone even believe that? Tho compared to Charlie and Jonesy, Tanno has to be the ultimate cnancer. Never looks remotely interested in anything coaching-related, tho will be the chosen one one that GP takes to his consolation prize Spanish-speaking club in the Autumn
