Harry Lennon is not very popular with a lot of Charlton fans. But when out on loan and playing regularly by all accounts he has done well. The trouble is at Charlton he is way down the pecking order and never seems to string a run of games together. I still believe he will become a decent player good enough to play in the championship eventually.

When I saw him in the Championship second half of two years ago I thought he looked ok at best. His positioning and reading of the game isn't great. He's not particularly good on the ball. He's good in the air and he has the mobility to cover for his mistakes, but I think he's a ways off yet. On the handful of times he played last year he had a big mistake in him.
I think he'd benefit from a sixth month loan to determine how good he actually is. We have four good center backs ahead of him plus Dijksteel looked handy there against Dover and Bowery by all accounts looked good against Welling. I agree that injuries and a consistent run in the team have hindered him, but given where he is right now I think League Two or lower League One is about his level.

I think there is certainly potential with him. Unfortunately when he plays he is quite rash and partial to giving away penalties, picking up cheap bookings and has had a couple of red cards. If he could cut that out, he would be in with a shout. Personally I think at his age, he probably needs a move away and be a playing regularly.

I agree with you that he will benefit from a loan where he can play regular first team football. The problem he has at Charlton is that he is so far down the pecking order that when he does get a chance it is only ever for one or two games, he never gets a run in the side to show what he can do. I would like to loan him out to a club that will give him 1st team football and see how he progresses.

I'd agree as long as we have an immediate recall clause.

When a regular in the Championship he seemed reasonably steady, whereas due to injuries and lack of match fitness he was terrible when called upon last season. He desperately needs a run of games when fit

Not allowed, unless it's to a non league club
Thanks, I thought it might just be no emergency loans, couldn't be bothered to check.
Lennon moving at the moment has to be out of the question as he is still injured and hasn't yet joined in full training. Admittedly a long time ago and at a higher level than we now play, but the initial run he had in the team he wasn't nearly up to scratch. He wasn't helped by occasionally being lumbered with playing at left back, for which he showed even less capability. His best hope will be to return to something like full fitness, get a few runs out with the U23s and in the cowpat cup, or whatever it's called now, and if he suffers no reaction in the recovery from his serious groin issue, he could establish himself as first reserve behind Pearce and Bauer, if they're both still able and consistent then a loan out in January could get Harry's career restarted. Just as likely the mad belgian bungler will sell Pearce or Bauer in the next window leaving the incumbent manager with little option but to promote Harry. For those of you who have forgotten, roly considers all players equally capable and interchangeable unless tommy underpants decides they're no longer adequate and should be jettisoned, see Yann Kermorgant and Michael Morrison.
The new CAFC youtube advert is unveiled on Charlton Life, as members get to choose what part of the kama sutra would most appeal to taxi driving Spurs fans.
KR saying post Norwich that he wants a keeper and a winger. The coaching team are going to discuss Stewart tonight.
That sounds fair if he's talking about before the first game of the season in 10 days time. There's still over a month until the transfer deadline closes, I'm sure we'll pick up a loan player or two in that period, especially as we currently only have 1.
We need some rumours about a striker coming in pdq. To be in the promotion mix we'll need to score 75 (ish) goals and I can't see where they are coming from. Certainly Holmes, Fosu and JFC will contribute and Magennis should get to 15 but unless we address a proper striker coming in we will struggle to make playoffs.
Horrible feeling of deja vu with Roland leaving us short yet again.
