Not sure if there’s a thread for non Charlton stuff or if this has already been mentioned but I’ve just seen Everton have turned down £85m from Barca for Richarlison.
i don’t know which club is more stupid in that situation
Interesting that Ivan Toney was wanted by a top four Championship club
Peterborough basically said that this team could have Toney for free now yet the condition that he'd remain on loan @ Posh till the summer
This club would then have to pay a fee in Summer for the Striker, but their stance was they wanted to keep him until promotion was confirmed for them or not
My view on the JCH bid is that he is a replacement for Lyle. Brentford have probably come back in for him, esp after losing last night & that's why we have put in a (late) bid for him.
I know RD supposedly said our bid for Toney last August was not a replacement for Taylor, but I dont buy that bullshit.....esp when it was with RD in charge.
At least we are looking at buying decent in form & experienced strikers (Toney, Gnadduillet & JCH) rather than very young loanees from Spurs, Watford or Norwich.
Cawley has already said our Toney bid was as a replacement for Taylor so it was massive BS from Roland
It was Bowyer who said that not RD.
Either way Roland had no intention of playing Taylor and Toney alongside each other

Hope Southall was listening to MacAnthonys stance on Toney, and applies the same Rhetoric to Lyle. And nobody's going to be offering £12-15 million on Lyle.

I get not paying over the odds for players etc. But this is a transfer that should have happened over 2 weeks ago, and at the latest the day after Bowyer signed his deal

Clarke-Harris is a 3rd tier journeyman, not as good as Taylor but plays the same role. Why buy him now unless Taylor deal is already done? What we are missing in attack is a pacy goal scorer and a Gallagher style attacking midfielder. Clarke-Harris is neither of those so he would be superfluous if he comes and Taylor stays.
How would you describe Taylor 18 months ago?
Remember Nicky Ajose ! To think we will get someone who is a top goal scorer and a great Wide man to replace him is wishful thinking. Bonne and Taylor should play together till the end of season so we can cruise into 16th place. We know Taylor can do the business in the championship. I believe the "model" is based on never let a player take advantage of the Bosman ruling and just walk for nothing. 2 .75 million(guess) with 5 months left of his contract and then spend about a million but no more on a replacement. Could be 3 million but as 4.5 was offered in August, it must drop as the months run out.
I'm not ITK and said it hours before Cawley thought the same. Two signings will be announced to try to soften the blow, or bury bad news depending on your take.

Maddison demanded Championship football.
Peterborough accepted Charlton bid. Let Maddison speak to us but we couldn’t agree terms.
Birmingham put in a similar bid to Charlton but were trying to pay in instalments so bid got rejected.
Another Championship club has come in for Maddison, are selling two players tomorrow so will have the money to put in a bid.
Down to the player to decide what he wants but he probably won’t be back in the Peterborough side again.
And nobody's going to be offering £12-15 million on Lyle.

Can't disagree here
