    I forgot this is the first window without Freedom of Movement, which is mainly a restriction for EFL teams, as Premier League clubs can buy in the exempted group 
    Without doing any sort of research I'd say that League 1 squads are probably 95% made up with British players. 

    I dont think not being able to pick up a player from Estonia, Belgium or Spain is the reason why we haven't signed that many players......
    We signed someone???

    Shortest hiatus ever Golfie ;)
    Sorry.....just cant keep away.

    It's a drug & I'm hooked  !!
    You could always ask the mods for a time out 😉
    That reminds about Seth Plum. Does anyone know if he's still banned or is he taking a voluntary leave of absence? 
    @PaddyP17 might be prepared to shed some light 🤔.

    I don't suppose it's any of my business but I did quite liked Seth's posts. Not that I usually agreed with him but I appreciated that he wasn't worried about filtering his opinions.
    AFKA mentioned a little while ago that Seth was indeed restricted from posting.

    However it is disappointing in the extreme that there has been zero communication with Seth, from any of the mod team, since the ban was issued, despite him emailing in to clarify what's up. (He was going to be contacted within seven days according to the most recent email and it's now been a couple of months)

    It’s either something we’ll be very happy with to do with players or that was a trailer to his song.

    Probably to do with his song, hope we have signings lined up as it’s a lot of build up and I’m not too fussed about a song at this point 😂
  • I didn't take it as anything other than it (the season) starts soon

    Next year's review of our accounts:

    "Charlton may have significantly reduced out goings, year-on year, for vehicle leases and consultant fees, but the saving were almost entirely offset by increased spending on drone footage and studio time."

    For this reason it wouldn't surprise me to see a big signing on deadline day just to cause a stir on twitter

    It had better be something significant otherwise the accusations of hyping up nothing will re emerge. Kit and sponsorship is my guess.

    You can’t control the uncontrollable. Don’t get too worked up and you won’t be gutted if it’s not a signing. Just to clarify, I’m not ITK.

    The new season and his song I expect, he's used the hashtag #AddicksToVictory on his previous tweets about his song.

    Im guessing this is a lot of work for someome which is why it hasn't been done but is there any chance we can have a bite size rumours thread or an actual rumours thread , for the casual punter who likes a quick check up every now and then without having to scroll through 6 pages of moaning about being no rumours, fish puns, bitching,drooling over ex players and general chit chat
    Need a mod for that.
    Was that not why you dropped Tommy a message? 😉

    Have you also given them a nudge/prod/reminder/complaint or just gone straight in there with this very public calling out?

    This heat is getting to too many of us, I fear.

    To be fair, it does have our new signings Harry Kane and Kevin de Bruyne on backing vocals, while Cristiano Ronaldo lays down a mean bass line

    Prepare to be underwhelmed.

    #AddicksToVictory he's used the hashtag again. Those distorted drums sound nasty, i don't even know what they are. Hopefully he's fixed the issue after the third beat.

    Anyway, i'm really intrigued to hear this song. It sounds like he's got some talent involved. 
  • I’m sure he’s just saying the season starts soon.

    It certainly refreshing for a owner to put so much effort into the club. One extreme to the other from Roland’s time 
  • Nothing to get excited about signings wise in that video IMO.

    Think he's literally just hyping the start of the season.

    Stand down!!
