Seeing that Posh bought Maddison for £250k, that is superb value for his return in goals and assists, even if they don't get a huge fee when they sell him
He’s had an ACL injury and then hasn’t lasted 90 minutes since, the knee will be a flag on a few million pound deal, it will be a calculated and know risk on a free and a smaller signing on fee
Lots of people getting excited on here. We haven't signed either of them yet. If and when we do I shall probably get excited . Until it happens just chill.
I know it's boring but I think I'd rather not know about the bid. Everyone now has their hopes up and will be disappointed if it doesn't happen.

Chill and NLA's pussy, the new buzz words of 2020.
I’d be surprised if Taylor moves in January, a 30 year old player currently injured that Southall has said he will only accept silly money for. I should imagine any club that’s prepared to pay that silly money, their insurance company may have something to say about the decision

On reflection, you might decide this isn't the best thread for you to be on.
TFO will have been seeking a smallish transfer fee up front, with hefty add-ons should Charlton avoid the drop. However, combined this is likely to total £0.75m rather than £2.5M

Is the release clause not £2.5M though which he says (in total) we've met?
Positives - We are targeting someone who is recognised as one of the best players in the league below - We clearly have cash to play with - He’s a very decent footballer, makes things happen
Negatives - Question mark around committment during games and big question marks around character off the pitch. Edgy ones with off field reputations have never really been a good fit at Charlton (Leon Clarke etc) - May be wrong, but doesn’t seem the type from what we have seen who would be top of our managers working wish list

I guess we'd got an agreement in place to pay the £2.5m within an agreeable timeframe - Small payment up front with the rest later
Not sure what to make of the moves for Toney and Maddison.
If both are being brought in as part of some extra muscle to keep us up - fine. But neither look like the type of long term acquisitions I'd expect from a new owner...or from a manager with cash to spend from a new owner.
Proven League One pro's are unlikely to get us promoted to the top flight IMO.
I’m pleased we are looking at this player and this type of player. Probably gone a bit stale, isn’t going to cost the earth but neither will he come cheap, a number of clubs interested in him and could potentially push on with us next year. His apparent attitude issues don’t concern me as we know that under Bowyer such an approach will not be tolerated. Hopefully we will get it done and MS has similar positive relationships with other chairmen across the leagues.

Have to disagree there mate. If we could bring in these two it would be fantastic.

Didnt work for Sheffield United then? And also when we nearly got in the play offs in with our 1st year back with Powell?

Two beautiful words.
Who would of thought it, bid here, bid there, few million here, few million there, polar opposite to what we are used to
Long may it continue
Got to say MS on sky sports news looks like he's having a whale of a time, like a kid in a sweetshop...... Hope he doesn't get to carried away 🤩
