The 41-year-old Dowie took over from long-standing boss Alan Curbishley in the summer and has only been in charge for 12 Premiership games. But the Addicks have only won two league matches and are bottom of the table with eight points. The former Crystal Palace boss did lead Charlton into the Carling Cup quarter-finals last week, but they lost 3-2 at Wigan on Saturday. The club said on their website that they would make a full statement on Tuesday morning. Dowie is the first Premiership manager to lose his job this season.

I don't suppose we will ever be told the full story. <_<

Told a mate one the other year and he followed it, he actually put �50 on it. At half time in the deciding match he was texting me, pulling his hair out! At the end of the game he loved me! - Liverpool won Champions Lge Final and I called it at the end of the group stages! banghead banghead banghead

B) Imagine the odds! :blink:
