Charlton Rumours Rumours Rumours - The Big Kahuna

West Ham and Norwich rival Charlton for League Two prospect
Monday, 24 August 2015 By Richard Cawley

CHARLTON are hoping that offering a quicker progression path will help them to land Dagenham winger Jodi Jones.
The Addicks have tabled more than one bid for the 17-year-old, who played against them in the Capital One Cup earlier in the month, but have not been able to agree a fee.

West Ham United and Norwich City are also interested in Jones, who broke into the Dagenham first team at the end of last season and signed a long-term contract.
Charlton know they cannot match the financial power of the two Premier League clubs but are hoping Jones would look at the way they have developed youngsters - Joe Gomez and Diego Poyet moving to Liverpool and West Ham respectively over the past two season.
Dagenham are asking for a fee in the region of £250,000 but may surpass that because of the high level of interest.

I'm not disagreeing VG, I think some comments aimed towards @colin1961 are over the top.

All my comment said was to be mindful of 'facts' that he posts, that can be easily checked out by a quick Google search.

As I've said I like some of the rumours he comes out with, at least they're not Acworth worthy!

Then again it is the rumours thread so I could say @Stu_of_Kunming is signing for Kunming Ruilong F.C and no one can challenge it, except the man or the club involved

It's just a rumour after all.

p.s I really hope he is right regarding James Henry.

Colin ( Bexley Boy) has quite openly stated on that other forum that he loves winding people up on Charlton Life. He knows exactly what he's doing.

and that is why he doesn't reply to the stick and abuse he gets on here, because he most likely enjoys it.

Edit: Nothing too wrong with that either, I love winding people up on the facebook page from time to time. Yes it's annoying on here at times but as mentioned not worth getting peed off about imo.

Charlton still pushing to land Wolves wideman James Henry
Monday, 24 August 2015 By Richard Cawley

CHARLTON are still looking to land Wolves winger James Henry before the transfer window closes.
But former Arsenal and Liverpool wideman Jermaine Pennant is also an option after he trained with the Addicks last week.
Charlton want to bring in another winger and nothing has changed in the respect that Henry is their prime target.
Wolves boss Kenny Jackett had started the season with the former Millwall man in his side but he was dropped to the bench for Saturday’s 2-0 defeat at Cardiff.
The Addicks have already tested the water with a bid that fell comfortably short of Wanderers’ valuation - thought to be in excess of £500,000 even though the 26-year-old is in the final 12 months of his Molineux contract.
Henry is keen on a return to South London but if a deal cannot be struck then Pennant, 32, could be handed a contract.
Pennant turned down a new deal at relegated Wigan in the summer. Millwall twice tried to sign him last seaso

He was left out of wolves team on Saturday

Colin you're on the internet, check your facts/lies before you post. We can google exactly what you could and will know if it's BS.

He played every game this season but was left out the starting 11 on Saturday
Clear enough !!!!

Absolutely.

Cheers Colin.

Can we just take a moment to remember how everyone was flapping over signings this time last month or so ago and the world was coming to an end.

Now we're casually debating which right winger we'd prefer to add to our already strong looking team.

as this is a rumour thread...I will chip in and say that this has some substance. Talking to a millwall pal today that says Henry is keen to join us and that terms are being sorted out tonight. No more substance I am afraid but my pal is pretty close with him.

Don't shoot the messenger but another well known and often itk Charlton forum is suggesting that Yann might be back on the boil ?

The wolves forum more then happy for Henry to join us in fact they offered to drive him down for us !!!!!

Of course they would. It's an excuse for them to get away from that dump for a bit.

When Yann left, i said at the time that if we could replace him with another big Number 9 but was younger and who could put himself about and head as well as assisting the other forwards then i could move on ?
I just didn't realise i would have to wait so long until Big Mak turned up.

kentaddick

Yann wouldn't get into our team right now. It must be said.

Re Yann. It does amuse me that the more time that passes the better he was............
As someone once said beyond parody.*

This could of course get tiresome very soon but if he turned up tomorrow he'd certainly improve the squad. That said I'd be surprised after the off-pitch scenario when he left.

Maybe something to do with how badly he performed for Bournemouth last season and how wonderfully effective his replacements were.

Now, finally, after 18 months we have another centre forward.

Who is a lot younger, does not have injury problems and wants to be at Charlton

None of which has anything to do with how good Yann was as a player, as he proved again with Bournemouth.

I think the people trying to convince themselves, against all the evidence, that Yann wasn't all that really need to move on. He has.
