Notts C don't necessarily have to take green and bwp. If we got both of them off the wage bill to Swindon and sheff utd on loan till the end of the season, we'd probably save enough money to be able to bid for Judge. The fact Powell was watching Portsmouth v Notts C last night surely gives us hope.

I agree.. no way CP would be watching if we werent interested. I hope so anyway
I am concerned about this. If we have no money now then where will it come from in the summer? If we have none then then how are we going to get to the PL? If we don't get to the PL in the next couple of seasons we are f**ked. In the meantime MS will stil be pumping in 1m to cover ever increasing losses. Really worried. Unless TJ et al just don't want to trust CP with any money and that leads me to just one conclusion, one that I don't really want to contemplate.
Maybe we'll just do a Crewe and live and die by our youth setup.
Yeah cause we have blooded loads of youngsters over the last couple of seasons.
We've invested a lot in the academy, my comment was a bit of a joke but the long term objective of the owners is to develop both our own youngsters and young up and coming players.

Sounds like a definition of the word "conundrum" to me, Large.

This exactly bothers me too. It's a simplistic but I would say pretty spot on analysis of where we are. Worried.

Family trait ? At least you're not quite as really worried as Golfie. He's really really worried :-)

Hit the nail there Kenty. There's something in this. Managing to get a man like Paul Hart,who incidently was being touted for prem management jobs, to take it on was a real coup. I don't think we're skint. Will always be money to keep things ticking along. This is a money making exercise.

If I was losing 8 million a year my bank manager would I suspect consider that skint.

But if you could still service the debt you'd still be on his Christmas card list.
Don't think the lack of signings is necessary a sign that there's no cash. We're probably not going to go down or make the playoffs so maybe we've got a manager and board that thinks it's worth keeping their powder dry unless there's real value. Would people be happier if we had a Pardew-style shit buying spree?

Of course the lack of signings does not prove there's no cash; the accounts published last week are all the proof that's needed!!
Apparently Rachid Harkouk is being lined up as our new manager. The 58 year old former Palace and Notts Co Algerian is the current boss of AC Algers. He still has a house in Beckenham and has decided to move back into the English game. The former striker scored 123 goals in 330 appearances in the league and captained his country the African Nations cup in 1984. Fluent english speaking Harkouk will hopefullyt help Charlton make their push to the premier league next season.

Shame we're skint!
You see right now it's a mil a month because we are still covering costs that were haemorrhaging
Now we have a sustained loss but one that should we slowly build and carry on in a forward momentum we will be come more of an investment package
Right now we are a team that's just been promoted
That's all
I don't want us to spend 1 bean and finish just above the drop zone but far enough away so we don't panic
