But we don't 'keep' selling. We've sold someone who has played a grand total of 14 times, stop whinging for the sake of whinging.moutuakilla said:

We've let go 21 first-team players since May, excluding loans. Not all sold by any means, since we can't even give some of them away, but that is a huge turnover by any standards.Greenie Junior said:

Majority of them deadwood, would you not agree? I think we have a better squad this season than we did last season.Airman Brown said:

Well, I'd have any of Gudmundsson, Cousins, Harriott, Pope, Henderson, Watt, Vetokele, Holmes-Dennis and Motta in the squad, accepting that the first was always going to leave and based on Rudd only being on loan. I'd also keep Teixeira. Of course that may not be affordable in League One, but that's a problem of the regime's own creation, as were all the deadwood as you describe them, bar Pigott.Greenie Junior said:

I should have said 21 including loanees, but that doesn't include Moussa, Polish Pete or Vaz Te who were all paid off around February.
There's no doubt in my mind the squad we had at the end of the season was much more talented than the one we have now, although whether they were working as a team is a different matter.
The current squad is too small, especially with the loan changes. How long before we are "unlucky" with injuries again?24 -
If THD asked to leave, Im not sure could have done anything about it. You cant have a player knocking about in the squad who has no interest in playing for us.
On the other hand, the regime got us relegated so he probably would have stayed if we were a champ club.1 -
I think for an established first team player it is hard to say no, but THD was not that and Slade could have said no. I suspect that Slade was not that keen on him and there was a personality clash, so happy to let him go.CAFCTrev said:If THD asked to leave, Im not sure could have done anything about it.

Maybe they should pass on a message and say well done Slade get rid of people who dont want to play for us0

Burnley are rumoured to have offered £9m for Dale Stephens of Brighton.
We possibly sold him for £350,000 have we got a sell-on clause?4 -
What on earth is that smell?iainment said:
Oh well . I've not seen journalists giving out stuff or working to get Duchatet out. I have seen them getting free access to see the games but but not actually asking the questions that really matter. But I'm just shit.Curb_It said:
And you are really shit at times as well. I rate Rich Cawley as one of the journos putting a lot of Charlton stuff out there. Think he does a good job.iainment said:Local papers are totally shit. Reflect the opinions of most of Charlton's fans.
Or the club
No brainer, the club gives you press releases, the fans demand actual journalism. They cop out.
They are just shit.
Sol i know where i stand. I'm a fan with an opinion but apparently i don' t matter.
Fair enough I'm done. No more protesting, no more caring about the club because I'm shit.

From memory we got 800K which was less than Aston villa offered a season before that and Slater turned down because they wanted over the million plus add ons.Jensenwasclass said:Burnley are rumoured to have offered £9m for Dale Stephens of Brighton.

9 million seems high ?
but pleased that another one i predicted good things for if he could ever stay fit may get a chance to play in the Premier ( even if just one season)2 -
Just walk in and Say you're issuing a writ on behalf of Simon Jordan.shirty5 said:I'm off work tomorrow. Anyone got access to a press pass?

Those numbers are way off. From recollection Villa would have paid a couple of million but Jimenez decided he could get more out of them, took over the negotiations from Prothero, and they told him to poke it.soapboxsam said:

Cheers Airman, I thought you had the insider knowledge.
Am i right on what we finally received, about 800K ?0 -
Exactly. I can understand why THD would rather be on the bench in The Championship than in L1.northstandsteve said:
The interview says it, can't get ahead of Fox and want's to play football, which he is unlikely to get at Huddersfield so it probably them comes back to money.LoOkOuT said:It's not a question of him wanting to leave as much as it is a question of WHY he wanted to leave?
We're a fecking farce!!!
If you're going to be sitting on the bench, you might as well be earning a fair bit more.1 -

I have come in and looked on cafc player for the press day, which is usually kicked off with BBC Kent.
Anyway it wasn't there.
On cafc youtube channel there is a 'different' style of interview with Slade pre Bolton.
Is there some kind of new communications policy going on?0 -

Usually BBC Radio Kent and News Shopper are the only ones who turn up.
Tony Hudd of BBC Kent is away on holiday and News Shopper were unable to attend so that's what we were left with.

If you want a bit of variety next time this happens give me a call. I can get to SL or the Valley pretty quickly and promise not to swear

Given her experience of football, I doubt she even knew it was possible. That said, check out Sue's latest on how Slade identified the new signings but it was down to Katrien's brilliance behind the scenes that we landed them.mistrollingin said:

It's all so obvious why we signed Josh Magennis now.Fanny Fanackapan said:
Oh that's bl**dy great !ross1 said:
Lennon expected to play one more game for the under 23's and then will be Fox backup as well as CDseth plum said:What Slade failed to add was '...and if Foxy gets injured we have....'
Sell one back up player then expect another to slot into 2 positons !
FFS - even Harry's not that good !
Katrien: what's that Josh? You used to play in goal?
Magennis: yes. But it was 8 years ag....."gets put on hold"
Katrien: hello Tony, get back on the blower to Burnley and Forest. Let both Hendo and Popey go. I've pulled another master stroke.2
