I tell you what, if we can get the same player from his time at Palace or even similar, a midfield diamond of him, Aribo, Cullen and Bielik will be devastating.
The loving on Twitter from Palace fans is mad... There's people on there saying they will be supporting Charlton whenever he plays and hoping we win. Think that is a testament to the guy.
Best of luck, hope you can stay injury free and get the fitness levels up as definitely at least a championship player. Always rated him just hope he isn't broken after all his injuries/ lack of playing.
He was THE player in the Sunderland documentary series that I felt for. I think I was the only one in the thread about the series on here that mentioned him. Sooo surprised that a few weeks later now he's joined us.
In the episode where he went to talk with the psychologist, I thought he was holding back tears. I really did and felt truly sorry for him.
Like others have said, I hope he stays fit and gets full support from both the management team and the fans. Welcome Jonny!
If he stays fit then he will be class. Like others said he came across so well in the Sunderland documentary and I want him to do so well. Hopefully he will push us on further. Couldn't card less if he came from Palace or not. He's ours now.

Too many new plastics picked up from their time in the Premier League. Sadly, we are pretty much an irrelevance to those fans.

Welcome to South London's finest Jonny
If those 4 manage to be fit for more than 5 games together i'll be astounded.
A good signing but despite the current signings, I really don't think CM was an issue. We are severely lacking at the back, need to replace Steer and have no decent cover for Grant/Taylor.

A big fan of Bowyer but he bloody loves a CM!
Not really at the moment hence why we're having to rely on Morgan and Sarpong-Wiredu on the bench whilst he's had to test Maloney in Cup games
If we were fine in Midfield then none of the above would have happened

We're 2 divisions below Palace, currently we're an irrelevance to just about all Palace fans. And the rivalry has always been stronger from our direction anyway
And to be fair, when we were riding high in the PL, I doubt anyone cared much about how Millwall were doing
Seems very notable that almost everyone who has come to this club (especially midfielders) have cited that Bowyer is a key reason to why they wanted to move to us. He seems a big asset to the club not just in terms of his managerial abilities.
I wonder how his training went today with his new team mates and what a feeling it must be for him to train at a proper club and he must be very excited about playing at a proper ground tomorrow

We play four CMs at a time in a diamond, we've lost Ward (who played at the tip of the diamond) while Cullen, Reeves, Lapslie and Aribo are out injured.
How is CM not an issue? I agree we still need a GK, LB and striker.
My guess would be that Palace paid him off as he had no future there and we are probably not paying him that much, but instead he has an opportunity to put himself in the shop window and even possibly stay with us if he does well and we go up. Looks like a shrewd bit of business from Bowyer.
It’s a win win really but all based on him remaining fit.
We get a quality player for the run in and he gets a chance to show the footballing world that he’s fit enough and good enough to be given a contract. Big incentive for him to do the bizzo because in six months he’s out of work or on a fraction of his current earnings.
Remember when Chris Powell bought in Michael Stewart, a genuinely class midfielder for a 6 month spell. He put himself in the window and off he popped
No saying Jonny Williams will do the same as I get the impression he's got a but more about him and his injuries seem to have really got him down. He first caught my eye playing for Palace and Wales and I liked his intent and positive use of the ball. The player I'd day he most reminds me of is Wilshere who when fit is also a very good and positive user of the football and has the same body movement/gait when on the ball

Nice to hear. But palarse fans are still a bunch of snotgobling ultra wannabe pricks.

Still with our limited budget, beggars can't be choosers, so fair play to all concerned.
Just stay fit!

Seriously, looks a good signing, Bowyer, Jacko and the team just get better and better.

Is this a funny camera angle or is his napper really this huge?
