Depends if we get to the playoffs, how can we win games with no goalscorers in the team?
Well there’s Taylor and a.n. other striker. Aribo can score goals, Fosu used to score goals, but we do seem reluctant to shoot sometimes. ‘Plenty of shots’ should be written on the dressing room walls! Fosu was also decent with free kicks but Reeves hasn’t delivered in that department (although I rate him otherwise).
Reeeco showed on Saturday that he actually might be pretty decent.
Anyone remember that goal Sarr scored in the pre season friendlies? There was some video somewhere but can’t find it. He has a very accurate left foot and you’d imagine he’d be decent at free kicks given the chance.
Hopefully keep going as we are. Stay in our position and a play-off spot will mean a coin toss in each of the three rounds hoping we come out on top at the end.
If Bet365 gave you a free £1000 winning bet, where would you place us 'exactly' after the seasons ends in it's entirety???
I have a sinking feeling it is play-off semi-final failure again.

We’re stronger than last year. But you still might be right.

We're stronger this year but see the Play-Offs stronger too - Shrewsbury could have been beaten had we taken our chances whilst we'd done the double over Rotherham
One of Sunderland or Barnsley may await in the Semi-Finals or Final this year and question if we can beat them over two or one games

Barnsley weakens by sales apparently. Sunderland would be tight.

Would certainly help if Barnsley lose Moore and Pinnock as rumoured
Sunderland I think will be the one side to strengthen more than most by 11pm tomorrow, even with the loss of Maja
Great , now let's move on . As mentioned before by others we have good players at the club , give them a chance . This season has so far been a disaster on the injury situation . players coming back . We should at least be too six . Coyr 👍
The chances of Charlton sustaining a top 6 place are about the same as the shit4brained europrat sanctioning the acquisition of any player of equivalent quality, to replace KG. On 5 years evidence that chance is as close to zero as makes no difference. With Igor's runout for the U23's yesterday I'd wager that roly or whichever lickspittle, wormtongue, brown-nosing toady that keeps tabs on the squad dismantling, reckons that LB's squad is fully rostered and Huddersfield's ill-gotten will be lining the undead bungler's casket in short order. For the hard of memory: roly's football strategy is founded on all players being interchangeable, squad building is a headcount exercise and all assets have a monetary value - as soon as A.N. Other meets or exceeds that valuation, said asset is liquidated.
I seriously doubt whether another £1.5 million is going to change Roly's life -extremely small change to him. I also wouldn't mind betting LB and JJ have already lined up a replacement(s) for Grant.

Don’t forget, this is the man who tapes his shoes up and drives an old car. He wants every penny he can get. He’ll trouser that ASAP.
IMHO we’ll be getting someone on loan at best. And that’s if Bowyer calls in some favours and is lucky.

Had to laugh at that one! But seriously, he's losing untold shed loads of money by not selling - so £1.5 is not going to make much of a dent in that.

He’s paying for the ‘loss’ via his various businesses (Starprix, Melexis etc). He’ll have set this up so he doesn’t actually lose the money (allegedly).

Next to no chance of that. It may be possible to offset some CAFC losses against tax on profits on his other companies, but as they are in different countries, I'm not even sure that is possible.

Grant is a loss at this stage of the season, but he is still the same player that was at Crawley last season and was 4th choice last season,
Are you sure? It was Karlan Ahearne Grant that went on loan to Crawley last season. This season we've had Karlan Grant, seemingly a much better player!
The Thais do this: they change their name and hope for a change in their luck in life. Looking forward to a hatful of goals from Reeco Fairchild next season.
Bangkokaddick. Your analogy reminds me of a story England cricket's assistant head coach Paul Farbrace once told me about the time he was head coach of the Sri Lankan cricket team. When he arrived in Sri Lanka, their kit supplier provided him with all the necessary branded clothing. When Farby tried on the training gear, he found it too small. So he rang the guy who had given it to him to tell him he needed a larger size. The guy duly turned up and collected all the kit, promising he would be back later that day with the right sized kit. A few hours later he returned it all, Farby thanked the guy, and off the man went. However, when Farby tried it all on, he found it was still too small. In fact he soon realised it was the same kit. The kit supplier had simply removed the 'large' labels, and replaced them with 'XL' labels. As with Karlan Grant, you can change the name, but you're still the same man.
