Karl Robinson has offered to resign from his position as Charlton Athletic boss.
The South London Press understands that the Liverpudlian has offered to quit on two occasions.
Robinson initially did that before the 1-0 defeat at Blackpool.
He is the longest-serving manager under owner Roland Duchatelet but there is real uncertainty over his role. He has been a heavy betting favourite for the Oxford United vacancy.
Duchatelet is in talks over selling the South London club and it is understood that at least one of the two interested groups – if not both – would seek a change in the dugout.
But Duchatelet has rejected Robinson’s resignations.
The Australian-led party that have been in protracted negotiations over a deal are thought to be keen to bring in former Liverpool and Leeds star Harry Kewell, who has been cutting his managerial teeth at League Two side Crawley Town.
Robinson has taken training as usual today.
Everyone at the South London Press thanks you for your continued support.
Former Housing Secretary Robert Jenrick has encouraged everyone in the country who can afford to do so to buy a newspaper, and told the Downing Street press briefing:
“A FREE COUNTRY NEEDS A FREE PRESS, AND THE NEWSPAPERS OF OUR COUNTRY ARE UNDER SIGNIFICANT FINANCIAL PRESSURE”
If you can afford to do so, we would be so grateful if you can make a donation which will allow us to continue to bring stories to you, both in print and online.

Not only are we looking like a pub outfit the management above Karl are running the club like a public house
Charlton still have to try to go for the play offs and hope that they can still win promotion with Robinson as manager.
Next season is next season and nothing should be done until this one is over. There are too few games left to consider anything other than that.
Hopefully shooting practice and taking corners were the priority for training!!!
