RD promised Bowyer the money from the sale of the guy to Boro to use in this transfer window (poss £1-2 million) RD would have cashed in on Taylor and trousered that money £3-4 million) Bowyer gets the guy from Blackpool and two loan players .RD hoping that Bowyer and Co work their magic with not much.
Anyway loads an load an loads of time yet
Remember ----- sustainable ---- long term---- 5 year plan ----- competitive
Actually I added in competitive,won't be to long till the new PR guru gets that in a conversation.
I'm willing to bet that most of the rumours flying around are just smoke and mirrors. I suspect any players we do sign before the deadline will be names we haven't previously been linked with. After all, who saw Josh Parker coming our way 12 months ago?
I'm hopeful we are in the mix for some quality, and that is the reason its going down to the wire. We managed to do some unbelievable deals under the rat. You'd have to seriously question Southall's negotiating skills if we don't at least match it.

From limited highlights of him showing his goals -
Cedric Itten is 23, 6'2" and looks quite a strong lad. decent in the air and scores a fair few with his noggin. Bit of a poacher from the goals I have seen (goals tend to be in the box) but usually well placed
Looks quite confident...bordering on cocky.
Would need wingers to supply him or he'can pick up scraps and finish them (but we don't produce much of that really)
Scoring 1 in 2 this season and a couple of assists too. 3 from 2 in the national team is a decent start too but rated at £2.7m on Transfermarkt so wouldn't be cheap
Which players did he have on his books again ? I don't do faith, I ask questions. I wish Matt all the success in the world but you and I don't have a clue if he was a successful agent or not .
Relax - Saturday - HE in the House - Maddison plus top quality defender and 2x prem loans announced.
Charlton win 3-0 Taylor Hat Trick Covered End goes wild.
Or the pessimistic version......
Cullen hobbles off after 30 minutes The referee gives Barnsley a ridiculous penalty in the 80th minute which wins the game for them Pratley picks up his 10th booking in the protest, and gets a 2 match ban Williams seems to be limping at the final whistle after a heavy tackle Barnsley just 3 points behind A devastated Bowyer can't hide his frustration at the lack of transfer business, and says he'll be looking at free agents but nothing seems to be out there. Charlton Life in meltdown
My 'sauce' tells me we have had an initial bid rejected for Jack Byrne of Shamrock Rovers.
Creative midfielder, won his first Senior Irish caps this year and recently won player of the year in Ireland. Never quite happened for him in England and Scotland before that, he started out in Man City's academy, he's still only 23.
The cynic in me is saying that they are going for players which they know have zero chance of coming here and then leaking to the press that this and that deal is on the cards. On transfer deadline, one nobody coming in on loan from a Championship club and then the flannel excuses starts about how close they were with; Spurs/Liverpool/West Ham/Rangers/Bristol Rovers/Peterborough/Watford players . I hope this is not a case of style over substance I really do.
I dont know what worse. Knowing the Aussies hung around for 2 years yet didnt have the money to get the deal over the line or knowing that ESI have oodles of wonga but havent yet bought the Ground, Sparrows Lane or any fecking players.
The same principles don’t apply since there is a deadline for the selling club. They can’t hold their asset forever because if they miss the deadline they get 0.
Like I said if they don’t want to sell in the first place, what makes you think the price is going up late in the window?
Are we asking more for Lyle Taylor now than we were two weeks ago?

Still Steve Gallen doing the dealing
If only he was working to get those deals over the line....

I'd be surprised if we got him to be honest

Yet another Irishman linked.

Charlton today announce the signing of Senagal striker Mouhamadou Sarr.
The 26 year old has put pen to paper on a short term deal to the end of the season.
The 6ft 3 striker will wear the shirt number 23. EFL rules state he is unable to appear in the same match squad as his compatriot Nabby.
Sarr said "I cant wait to get started. I feel like I have known the boys for years. "

Fairly uninspiring playing history. Might be one for the future, but hardly someone to go straight into the team now
