https://londonnewsonline.co.uk/new-...d-set-for-hands-on-role-at-charlton-athletic/ According to this article Thomas Sangaard is going to appoint himself as Charlton Athletic CEO! Certainly is 'hands on'. It's the best way to really learn more about the Club he says. Identify issues about the way it runs and make improvements. And to really get to know it. Sounds as if he intends to devote a significant portion of his time to the Club. A fantastic change from the culture here since 2014. When he can't be around though, I hope TS will have a good deputy (vice-CEO, assistant CEO or whatever) in place to take care of things. This is going to be an unconventional time for CAFC - something of an adventure to say the least. I hope we can bear with the new Boss and give his ideas a chance to flourish.
My local radio station has a presenter who is a Charlton fan. Tonight he played "Enter Sandman" with a bit of spiel about what this song means to us and thanks to TS for saving our club.

Hear hear Mr Lardiman. Sandgaard seems to have a positive 'can do' attitude. Let's hope the new broom will sweep away the mess and develop a good working relationship with Bowyer and Gallen. Fans need to stop thinking we'll automatically sail through this division, we're not in a good place at the moment.
Sounds like Paul Elliott's lawyers have have asked for clarification around the terms of the sale of @CAFCofficial to Thomas Sandgaard before deciding next steps. Legal options being considered.
To be expected. Elliot has spent the best part of the last 6 months playing with someone else’s money, presumably with the promise of a healthy return for that person. He and his backers pot of gold has been taken, by the sounds of it legitimately, by TS.
Whatever TS paid ESI for CAFC Elliott will feel with some justification that he is entitled to, at least some of it.
If it is correct that Kashashey was intending to bankroll Nimer (who claimed his money was in Egypt but never produced it) and later switched to bankrolling Elliott, and that Southall et al robbed the club of what had been left in the account by RD without any outside funds being put in, then Kashahshey through the figurehead of Elliott should have a claim to the money that he put in at the very least. That aside of whether the agreement of Nimer to sell the shares to Elliott, which might give Farnell/Kashashey/Elliott a further share to cover their legal costs.
If Elliott wants to fight Nimer for the money Sandgaard paid him, then good luck to PE. I can't see how Farnell could be openly involved in such a fight, as he has been a legal rep for both of them, hasn't he? Basically, I don't give a slap who wins. As long as Elliott cannot threaten the legitimacy of Sandgaard's present ownership of the Club, or his investments, with another bastard injunction. Surely Freshfields (not to mention RD's lawyers) are satisfied that such a thing cannot happen?
Neither Farnell nor Kashashey have any profile in the procedings but I am as convinced as I can be that thay are behind Elliott. Farnell and Kashashey started Staunch just before the first ESI takeover (the reason for belief that they were intially fronted by Nimer and "his" Egyptian money). Farnell also sold Elliott a shell company to buy the ESI shares just before Elliott's announced takeover. Farnell's involvement had to be concealed, hence the lack of disclosure about Farnell and Kashashey in the recent hearings. If the final action goes ahead between ESI1 and ESI2 in November it will be very interesting to see what is made public, as in the Jimenez case last year. It's just a matter of academic interest now, a couple of rogues arguing over the contents a wallet that has been picked from someone's pocket and contains a finite amount of money. I would be very surprised, to put it mildly, if Freshfields have left any angle for comeback.
Respect the thread. You & I are lovers of lower league club football - the PL has a duty to help them now.
