Poll of the Week: Ricky Holmes (SIGNED NEW CONTRACT TO 2020)

AFKABartram

Straight forward Yes or No

Do you think Ricky Holmes will still be a Charlton player at the end of this transfer window?

Covered_End_Lad

I've gone with no but I fecking hope I'm wrong

blackpool72

Depends on whether we get Reeves.
I don't think we will so I reckon Holmes will stay

MartinCAFC

I think Holmes will stay. Reeves plays in a different position so I don't understand why it's one or the other.

AFKABartram

50:50 so far...

Does there have to be a clear majority for a winner to be declared, or would something like 52% vs 48% suffice?

vff

Confirmed chance to play in Championship will tip balance as will upping the transfer will to Duchatelet.

EdgeleyAddick

Can't see him moving up north, so unless someone like Brentford go for him, I don't see him leaving.

The Red Robin

Gone by the end of January

So we can only afford one or the other?

Sage

He's staying.

If he was off I genuinely believe he would have left by now and not travelled to Ireland.

The opposite. If he was staying he'd had signed the new contract by now. Its been sitting on the table for weeks so whats the delay ? As in the immortal words " either shit or get off the pot". As usual there won't be any action and then on Aug 30th he'll leave & we'll be up shit creek again.

cantersaddick

Went with heart over head here. Please stay Ricky!

WestCountryAddick

I voted no. I also think if he was staying, he would've signed the new contract by now. I believe the reason he hasn't gone yet is because the two clubs are still haggling over a transfer fee.

LenGlover

It's all about the money.

If an acceptable offer comes in he'll go.

SDAddick

If he were going to be a guaranteed starter in the Championship then I'd think he would go, but I don't really see that happening. Sheff Utd. want him but I'm not entirely sure where he'd play there given they played a lot of 3-5-2 last year and he's not really a wingback. Other clubs are in for him apparently, but I doubt the difference in money will be huge between us and the bottom of the Championship.

I suspect he'll stay. I think we'll want too much for him. If we add another couple fullbacks we should be right up there for promotion, which I think will be good enough to get another six months out of him. Come January, if he's having another blinder of a season, more clubs will probably be in for him but the price will also have gone up. All bets would be off then. But yes, i think he'll stay this summer.

Mendonca In Asdas

We should put a 2 million price tag on his head to scare people off , I'm convinced he's a goner, given the histrionics of the regime thus far.

Deal agreed in early June but parties agreed to postpone public announcement until last possible moment.

This.
He's a headless chicken sometimes anyway.

Makes no sense whatsoever as the buying club and manager would want their player integrated and part of what they do as soon as possible. We also wouldn't be paying and using his place in Ireland if that was ever to happen.

He is staying, I am confident on that.

I read that as his new contract deal was agreed. But I am an optimist so could well be wrong!

there is a reason why Sheff Utd are still interested, they will have had encouragement from one party or another to keep up their persuit

How can they calculate player trading since they're always undisclosed?

the fact he hasn't signed an improved contract is in itself telling
