I don't think it makes him a laughing stock. I have a sneaking suspicion that a lot of what Col says is tongue in cheek, and he may be stringing a few of you along. I enjoy his contributions to CL if only for the now famous catchphrase.
Thanks Colin.
He THINKS that is what he is doing.
He's said on another site that he enjoys "winding up" people on here.
Only he isn't. People are laughing at him not with him. Been the same for years and years on many different forums.
This is out of order. Id rather Colin posts than not as a lot of people will often miss these rumours first time round and anyway what harm does it do?
At the end of last season if I knew that Gomez would be sold for over 6 mill but JBG and JC would sign new long term deals I would have taken that in a heartbeat.
and the JBG funds have enabled six new signings to date, most involving fees, a couple large one's too
Colin isnt ever malicious though. Plenty of people spout bullshit on this site and don't get half the abuse he does. Don't like to roll the 'b' word out, but there are elements here that remind me of the school playground bullying culture. Very subtle and I don't think it is there yet, but it feels a bit uncomfortable.

Does it really matter?
Not very much but enough for you to comment on it.
I like it when people share info on here, it's the dishonesty of it from Bexleyboy/Colin that is a minor irritation.

Live, Love, Laugh, and be Happy Henners.
I do.
That's why I never post on the "general things that annoy you" thread.
Lots of people on there seem to be constantly annoyed by nearly everyone and everything they come into contact with. Not me.
If you keep saying Jackson time is up. you will be right one day, This could well be this season but JJ has been a fantastic captain and have been the conduit between the old and the new and a contract should be on the table for coaching and playing with the development team to bring them on. May only be in a cameo role now but the man has been mustard and this should be rewarded.

Jackson and Diarra will be two of the most important people in the club this season IMHO
Not always for what they do on the pitch, although they will contribute there, but on the training ground, in the mentoring and expertise they will bring.
yesterday driving to work I pulled up alongside Jacko waiting to pull out at Well Hall roundabout. When I noticed it was Jacko I was beeping my horn and waving like a loon sticking my thumb up at him.
When he noticed instead of looking at me like a weirdo and speeding off he smiled and gave me a thumbs up back. He's a nice fella and I'm glad he's our captain.
I was chuffed and it made my morning. I'm 28 years old!!!
If Reza is back and ready to knuckle down, Jackson am sure will have taken him to one side for a chat about what the club / fans expect same with all the other new faces
As he gets older he wont play so much but as others have said, he has that influence off the pitch and knows what Charlton is about

I agree. Couple of others maybe similar, Solly perhaps, of course JC with his fitness levels will keep everyone working their hardest I'm sure. JJ has his coaching badges too I believe, will be invaluable to the youth players day in day out.

I had exactly the same thing with Danny Mills back in 1998 but everyone thinks he's a horrible old meany now
Edit: I was a lot younger than 28 back in '98 though so not exactly the same

Does he really or is this just an assumption that people have made? Great news if he does, maybe we can Andy Hughes him a bit.

He and a few others did one of their badges at the end of last season at West Ham's training ground. He tweeted about it at the time

I’m sick of hearing people bad mouth Colin. I have had the pleasure of meeting this wonderful man in person on several occasions. I can confirm that he is a kind, gentle man with a winning smile. Colin selflessly scours the internet (or ‘web’ as he calls it) looking for Charlton related rumours that he can share on this, and other less popular, forums. He does this because this online community is like a family to him, a family he cherishes. Please leave Colin alone.
Henderson has had an operation on his shoulder and unless you know what proceedure was performed there is no way that you can accurately estimate his recovery time.
People seem very confused about this goalkeeper issue. Henderson is our number one. That is a fact. He's going to be injured for the start of the season but the second he's fit he'll be back in the team. As a result we need a third keeper to either compete with or replace Pope for a few weeks. That's it. All this 'we can do better', 'he hasn't played in forever', 'he's whoever's third choice' business misses the point. Whoever we get isn't even coming in to be our first choice. Good luck selling that to any decent team's first choice who plays every week. The alternative is to look down into the lower leagues, but even then that keeper won't want to sit on our bench for 90% of the season and will probably cost a decent amount. It's short term cover. Be realistic.
Henderson is having an operation on his shoulder. If anyone thinks he'll be back in three to four weeks I think they are being optimistic.
It'll be a rotator cuff injury. Pretty certainly. Would be recommended 6 weeks in a sling (4-6) then plenty of exercises afterwords to strengthen it back up, and if you scamp on that time you're playing with fire to re-damage it. And if it's not, I can't foresee any other shoulder surgery's recover time being too much shorter.
I think we want a keeper who is ready to compete with Henderson, regardless of whether Hendo's fit or not, why? Because chances are when they are in the first team it may be for a fair period - we don't want someone who's simply not ready or confident throughout these periods, it'd be stupid. That's not Pope for me, personally, and definitely not Taylor.
I had exactly the same operation and it's still not right I dislocated it 4 times then they decided to operate.it was 6 weeks till I could drive the another 3 months before I could lift anything and the 5/6 months before I could do contact sports

Harriot? doesn't seem the type. Good on him.
