Richard Murray

Had a minor strike. Wish him all the best.

 

*stroke.

I agree, all the best. According to the website he should make a full recovery

 

Played a huge role in our successes (and failures it should be said) over the last 15 years. Charlton through and through.

Wish him a speedy recovery

 

Same as. This is a man who if you cut him, bleeds Charlton, and I wish him a speedy recovery.

 

Wish him well in his recovery.

 

All the best Richy

 

All the best Richard - I've always had time for the bloke after his wife died the way she did, must have been horrible losing someone that way

(and he still managed to get on with running Charlton in the Premiership)

 

Agreed, A4L. Richard Murray has suffered great tragedy in his life, but still managed to keep us going through perilous financial times. He is a fine man, a gentleman and will always be remembered for his efforts in establishing Charlton, and The Valley, as a club to be very proud of.

 

For all the good he did for our club, I reckon Richard would've caved in when Villa came calling the first time.

Well done to Michael for resisting the offers & backing his manager.

That is all. Let's kick on now boys!

 

It's a lot easier for Slater. He's playing with someone else's money.

 

Murray would've backed Curbs, since under his astute management we were financially sound. After 3 years of Dowie and pardew we were heading for the crash and he would've sold anything or anybody to claw back his losses.

 

I'm not sure we ever considered selling the Sparrow's Tea Lady she's premiership class and does a lovely bacon bap but sadly the tommy sauce is not Heinz

Tommy sauce on bacon baps, HP sauce on sausage baps

 

OR.............Heinz tommy sauce on an egg and bacon sarnie? (toasted with a bit of oil)

 

The big debate on Egg & Bacon Sarnies is...... is it Fried Egg with bacon OR Scrambled Egg with Bacon...??

I'm a fried Egg & dry cure Bacon in a French Stick with Heinz Tommy

 

Love this thread so much that I just had fried egg and streaky bacon sarny with ketchup!

 

Just had bacon, baked beans and toast before I set out for Forest - yum!

...with Worcestershire Sauce.

 

Why do certain things need to stay in the room..?

 

I didn't go last night, but I have been to several similar events with Dicky Murray.

The evening normally unfolds as follows:

1. Audience arrives, comprising of two dozen blokes in cardigans who look like they still live with their Mum despite being at least 45, plus a couple of "women" with long greasy hair wearing Kagools & carrying autograph books.

2. Muzza arrives accompanied by official spokesman, ex- Fans Director B.Hayes. Customary standing ovation for the Dear Leader. Bloke in the front row faints, the one next to him knocks one out over an open copy of Voice of the Valley.

3. Muzza cracks the ice with self depreciating joke ....he reads out the club's latest bank statement

4. Standing ovation

5. Pause while Bovril is served

6. Five hours of hilarious anecdotes from Dicky, including the time Iain Dowie invited his brother Bob to take training (whoops....) plus how he paid ex CEO Steve Wagstaff over half a million pound a year in wages, yet failed to repair the drains under the pitch for 15 seasons.

7. Time to don those cardigans and kagools, and catch the night bus back to Erith.

Quote from meeting... "RD and KM are doing everything they can to support CP to be successful. Although RD and KM have an influence on who joins the club it is CP who picks the team".


Not sure I like the sound of this... So are we ever likely to know that future signings are the team managers choice... Sounds like he'll be allowed to pick the team, but only from a pool of players that are chosen by others..

At least the "he's brought these players to the club" is going to be one less thing to blame the manager for...
