As above, good to see Leon back playing.
Two injuries in the first half - Cook and Cort.
Early second half update..
Can someone remind me how much we paid for him!!!
This must go down as the biggest waste of money in recent history!!.....Especially considering the trouble we are in!
Who the fuck is responsible???
I just keep thinking 'Michael Smith' why why why????
And now we have recalled JP, and he's only scored 1 post goal!!!!

Polish Pete is awful, I think we have been sold a pup. Whoever scouted him wants stringing up.

You've never even seen the fella - but you seem to think he is shocking.
Is it any wonder our players want to turn on the fans sometimes?
Or in the squad for tomorrow night

Think it might be down to important under 18 games coming up .
I'd heard a rumour that Edwards might be off to pastures new. I have absolutely no idea if that's true or not.
Im not being a dick, i just wondered if that is your assessment of him after seeing him in a game.
I notice Koc was not playing, does that mean he will be playing on Tuesday?
Now it's turned out he is not first team ready and maybe even a bit off the pace at youth level right now, people are going over the top on the criticism of him.
I haven't seen him play so I'll take the word of those who have and say he's looked poor, but the lad is barely out of school, living away in a new country, playing with new team mates and its been a pretty tumultuous time at the Valley since he arrived. What has the lad played so far 4 or 5 youth team games? Way too early to write him off.
Time will tell if he develops into a good player for Charlton or disappears of to Hungary or Germany, but for now we just need to let him settle into his surroundings a bit and not expect too much to soon.
I do think it'd be stupid to throw him into the first team right now though.
Some crazy fools had him down as a replacement.
We needed a decent, Championship experienced striker to replace the decent one we had, and instead we got a new head coach, a lorry full of Senseballs™ and a reserve team bean pole!
I have commented on it on at least two threads since. Dick Plumb's comments mirror mine unfortunately about Piss Poor Pete.
I would like to believe that RD has a superior way of building successful teams, I really would. But in the absence of an explanation from him, this situation (and I have heard the same figure as you for PP) is just baffling, and does not inspire confidence.
Genuine question - where has this 700 k fee come from? The OS stated it as an undisclosed fee - how reliable is the source for the actual fee paid or is this one of those semi-credible rumours that quickly became a cold hard Charlton Life fact based on heresay alone?
At the time some journo in Holland estimated the deal to be worth around 400k Euros.
Nowhere near 700k GBP.
Polish Pete knows where the goal is but looks like he needs to beef up a bit. But give him a year or so to settle and get in the weights room and you might just be surprised.
He's apparently got the technique and ability - just needs to get up to speed and get stronger
I employed a little artistic licence with the bean pole moniker, but did so lovingly ;-)
