If it is true I would pull the contract offer. Assuming he was going to run his contract down and leave for nothing at its end to go to the Championship then we owe him little having paid his salary through years of injuries. He then expects we give him a year to get fit with that risk on us and him leaving at the end. Don't think so. May all be bolloxs though of course.
Works both ways though doesn't it, we didn't offer him a contract during the season so what do you expect him to do?
He, and his agent, will be full aware of any championship interest there was before his injury and the value of it in pounds, shillings and pence. There would also probably be interest from the other "big clubs" in league 1. If that interest would result in a concrete offer, however, is a totally different kettle of fish.
It's the risk you run by having so many players in the last year of their contract especially so many that are actually playing. I think 6 of the 8 were playing almost every game?
Now we are left with a position that neither party is going to be fully happy with. If he hadn't got injured he would have got a payrise here, or else where and probably a 3 year contract. Rightly we won't give him one because he is injured. There are no winners now, what ever the outcome.
Well there could be a winner. If he does not sign a new contract we don’t have to pay his medical expenses or his wages. It is not unreasonable for us to want a return from our investment in either a fee or performance. We are doing absolutely the right thing by offering him a contract. Totally his choice now.
I think a good club would have a duty of care and JFK owes a bit from his last long injury to agree a deal. My opinion.
😅🤣😅🤣😅🤣😅🤣
Can't see how you can call that a sensible comment. More that of a child perhaps. Employers do have a duty of care to employees and good employers know this.
Don't think Charlton can offer anything to help JFK.
Why ?
Should change your name to 1963
Why ? And I don't think one can say that the previous injury cancels this one. They are two different events.
Oh please. Someone help. What have I started? 🙄

More to the point why ? 😃
Would you like me to take your spade away from you?
Jfc had a great season for us last year and we should do the right thing by him but that’s it as far as I’m concerned - hopefully he gets a better offer as I don’t see him as any more than a squad filler at Charlton going forwards
That’s my personal take on it as well. I don’t know what good practice looks like when a player is in this situation? Do clubs usually offer players a deal, despite knowing they’re likely to miss a lot of the season when that player is out of contract?
Be great if Famewo signs but not the end of the world if he doesn’t. Cloughie was a big fan of getting your key players in the spine CF, CH and GK and build a team around them.
Stockley is in situ, Amos would be fine until Maynard Brewer has had a loan spell which leaves a youngish fit (too soon to pin all hopes on Innis yet) CB to find to complete the trio for the medium term.

Would not worry to much about Wigan if this is the level of player there getting
It doesn't sound like a return is out of the question.

No more loans in that position please .
Based on nothing more than feeling after we signed Stockley that the next signing will join on the 18th.
