We all need to be more positive but this is clearly an owner-initiated signing not a Gallen/Bowyer signing in order to boost CAFC interest in Denmark.
Big Ron will be restricted to cameo appearances, as a back up to Bogle, or as another lost-looking left back.
Don't be surprised to see Curbs replaced by Claus Jensen and Dennis Rommedahl for pre-match Minto interviews on Friday night and Noggin the Nog appointed as Director of Football with Hans Christian Anderson taking on the club's key PR role.

Noggin the Nog was Icelandic.
Norwegian, surely. When Nogbad the Bad was thwarted, he would sometimes retreat over the mountains to visit his granny in Finland. You can't do that from Iceland.
Schoolboy errors.
Noggin was King of the Nogs ... and the Nogs inhabit the Northlands.
Iceland? Norway? What are these places?
I double your schoolboy error. It is based on Norse sagas that were mainly from Iceland.
Noggin the Nog also tried to keep the country secret to thwart (unsuccessfully) Nogbad the bad.
Was Nogbad really all that bad though? I mean it was a different time and we had different standards back then. Shouldn't we draw a line under it and move on. I find all this calling him "the bad" a bit hypocritical to be honest. What about Noggin? He also did some things he shouldn't be too proud of but you don't see snowflakes calling him "Noggin the bad". It's all "ohhh, the Nog! Come on Noggin, you're so much better then Nogbad!"
Ron (note another Ronnie) Oosthuizen is really worthy of note. One appearance for Charlton having come from Marist Bros in South Africa. He left Charlton to play for Poole Town. I wonder if anyone on this forum saw his one appearance.
I don't think I saw him play, but I got his autograph when I watched him training. In the fifties they used to train at the Valley, mainly running up and down the East terrace! There were quite a few South Africans (Leary, Firmani, Hewie O'linn) playing for Charlton then.
Brilliant stuff, @aitchyaddick. I saw Leary, Hewie and Firmani play as a youngster and remember the South African contingent well, but I had never heard of Oosthuizen until recently. Brian Tocknell was another from South Africa at that time while Peter Firmani came from the same club as Oosthuizen. I wonder why Oosthuizen effectively went from South Africa to Poole Town via Charlton - I assume he didn't make the grade at Charlton. I know of Syd O'Linn, but never saw him play, as he took lodgings at my grandmother's when he first came to England. You have, of course, given your age away a bit, @aitchyaddick!

Noggin also had an ice dragon - no one ever talks about this, i mean nogbad was bad, but the destruction of small businesses and unrest the dragon must've caused is way worse! Just ask the small business owners of Northlands

In fact Nog"bad" was just doing what had to be done, but no-one else wanted to step up and take the responsibility.
Hope he hits the ground running. Bent or Jones Ipswich or Port Vale
Darren Bent was the last goal scorer for me to do this.
As for Ronnie i would be happy if he was as good as Martin Robinson.
We will just have to wait and see , But the service must be given to him to have any chance for him to show what he is worth.
I don’t think our strikers can complain about the service. The chances have been there and I don’t see Ronnie having an air shot in the six yard box.
Our strikers don't get great service. Yes Bogle made a mess of that chance, but no striker is expected to score every chance they receive. Bogle had 1 chance in the 45 minutes he was on, I'm struggling to remember Washington having any in the whole game

Don't miss next weeks exciting instalment. Only on Charlton Life.
Schwartz's nickname at Charlton: Noggin the Nog.
What a world we live in.
From centre back ?
