No I personally don't. You guys know what you're signing up to? Does it say in terms and conditions that you will have transfer information disclosed to you when signing up for valley gold?
As I said when buying something from a supermarket you won't demand to know the income of that supermarket even though you shop there every week, so why should you know the clubs?
Greenie, I don't subscribe to Valley Gold myself (used to), I am as I said, nosey...helps me to be so opinionated. Why should I know the clubs business? Big question, as in why should a supporter know about the business of their club, or our club, where we are dah de dah de dah together. Me? I wanna know, yeah I wanna know, I wanns make a judgement as to whether it was good business, just as many football fans have been doing everywhere when contemplating all kinds of transfers. That kind of judgementalism goes back even beyond the transfer of Steve Daley (look it up and allow for inflation). I respect your seeming lack of curiosity in this matter, I simply feel differently.
Fair play mate, wasn't digging you out at all by the way I was just wondering as I don't understand your side on it if you get what I mean
Yeah, there might be confidentially agreements. I wonder what might be gained from them if there are, measured against possible credibility issues with the fans.
Maybe it's the credibility of Liverpool fans rather than Charlton fans?
It doesn't have to be a conspiracy involving Charlton at all...

You could be right. If you are, how very decent of us to pander to Liverpool's wishes.
If Luzon's happy I'm happy, welcome Ahmed. Hoping he's a Kishishev. Looking like we'll be moving away from a 442 with current signings, more like a 433 or 352.
Also, with a name like Kashi surely we can get a decent song going.
I find all this non disclosure of fees very frustrating and yet another element of interest that is being phased out in the modern game. A great deal of enjoyment was derived from buying a "bargain" who developed into a prized asset. Or selling a product of the youth system for millions. Without knowing the fees involved for most players these days, how will fans know who is the clubs record signing? We can't even sing "what a waste of money" to opposing players anymore! I can understand the reasons behind it, but feel that fans are being denied very important information that in some ways shapes their support for their club. I know that one of the reasons I supported Charlton was because they could never afford to spend big bucks, but had to rely on developing youngsters and signing out of favour bargains. Having said all that, welcome Ahmed.
I’ve been thinking about this and I’m not sure fees are that important, we could get £10m for a player and RD pockets it or the funds go towards players that strengthen other parts of the network, or we could get £3m and it all goes to building our team. I would imagine it makes decent business sense not to disclose the full value of the Gomes deal, even if it does make a few fans disgruntled. We know that that isn’t too high on the owners priorities anyway.
I Agree that Luzon’s input for new players is important. Here is what he said last season ...
When asked what the biggest thing he had learned since arriving at The Valley, Luzon replied: “Just that English players have a great mentality. It’s no coincidence that most of the squad of Bournemouth are English players.
“I work in some countries with different mentalities. But English players are pure professionals.
“They don’t need the coach to ride them, to do something. They are the best players in the world to work with.”

I heard he was all impressed until he saw Richard Murray he pointed at him with his eye wide open and screamed Iain dowie? then he made a run for the nearest fire exit. Not been seen since.
Just out of interest... Is it "Ar-med" or "Ach-med"? (The 'ch' from the throat as in 'loch') It can be pronounced both ways, so it would seem polite to pronounce it the way he does. Anyone know?

Welcome Ahmed, good luck.
