Canaries interview Parkinson

The South London Press acts as a kind of Pravda for Charlton so we have to take a report that Norwich have interviewed Phil Parkinson for the managerial vacancy seriously, although he is not the only name in the frame:
Parkinson

Should Pards ever get fed up with trying to get Charlton out of the Championship, it has always been assumed that Parkinson was being groomed as a replacement, hence the efforts made to stop him going to Huddersfield in the close season. Of course, we already have two ex Charlton players on the coaching staff (Kins and Mark Robson), while Paul Mortimer is with the women's team. In the longer run, many Addickted would like to see Sir Chris Powell as a coach.

A new explanation has emerged for Charlton's defeat yesterday: Rick Everitt travelled to the game on one of his own Rickshaws, thus bringing bad luck from his half term break location.

Calls are already being made to strengthen the side at Christmas and while there are obvious gaps, it is far from clear how much money is available. Unless someone with substantial funds acquires the club, it is always going to be limited for resources.
