Everyone has there own opinions i thought he was fantastic(and i aont just saying that because i met him and Varney at the club shop in Bexleyheath) When we got relegated didnt we get just over a million for him as well
I’m certainly not bothered by Lokilo being a Palace player or Belgian. Some of the best players in europe are coming out of Belgium these days. Palace are a Premier League team with players and a squad we can only dream about.
If we do loan him and he can contribute to us getting out of the third tier of English football I’ll take that all day long.
On a different tack. Where are the two players that were reported as “already signed” ?

My comment about being Belgian was more a nod to this could be a signing of any of our recent managers. It such an RD move, probably one of his little laptop nerds recommendations.
Charlton Athletic are hoping to complete the signing of Crystal Palace winger Jason Lokilo, according to a report in the Sun, Print Edition, Monday 1st January 2018.
The youngster has failed to make an impression for the Eagles this season, with just one appearance in the League Cup to his name, and he has spent the majority of his time honing his craft playing for the under-23s at Selhurst Park.
However, he is still only 19, and Charlton are thought to be eyeing a move for Lokilo as they look to complete a deal and give the winger some valuable experience and game time down in League One.
The move would no doubt be an opportunity Lokilo would grab with both hands, with Palace in a relegation dog fight and manager Roy Hodgson in no position to be trying to blood young talent as he looks to steer the Eagles to Premier League safety.
Lokilo moved to Palace from Anderlecht and is expected to go on to be a success, and a loan move at this stage in his young career could well be the perfect move for the youngster.
We need some experienced Champ players to go with all our youngsters. That is the only way to progress this window. Foreign imports and young players on loan are not the answer.
Understand the lack of excitement about the return of a loan striker who has never scored in a competitive game BUT if you were KR and all you could bring in was loan signings (and I expect one's with next to no loan fee) what would you do?
This is the best we can expect this window unless the takeover happens in Jan.
Hopefully RD will sell up soon as I can see our season being over by the Shrewsbury game if it doesn't happen by then.
The only way we will compete for players like Kieffer Moore (who Rotherham have already bid for) is if the takeover happens and KR has cash to spend. Roland will obviously not fund more than short term loans whilst he's selling.
I agree Stephy shouldn't be our headline signing but he is a useful body to have in the squad. Especially as we lack depth. He can pretty much play in any of the 4 attacking positions.

Mark Hudson maybe not a legend but a fantastic player
Mark Bright

Please feck off soon RD, we want someone who actually wants to get this club out of this shite division...

Arsenal striker Stephy Mavididi, 19, is poised to join Charlton on loan. (ESPN)
There is no point throwing toys out of the pram until things are a little clearer.
We may not get what we would all like player wise this window; but that is a small price to pay for Rolly selling up
What a good idea. Sign a player and then play him in his best position. A bit revolutionary; do you think it will catch on?
Not at Charlton. Everyone knows that Centrebacks should play fullback or central midfield. Strikers play on the wing and a Goalkeeper up top
