    Does anyone know what lanyard Gallen was wearing I've not seen anyone confirm yet...
    ;)
    Apparently you can see ‘Ham’ on the lanyard so we can definitely deduce that we’re groundsharing with West Ham because Thomas is selling the Valley to pay for the recording sessions for Addicks To Victory.

    I think we have genuinely forgotten what really good full-backs look like, to the point where competent ones get big love.
    agreed - matthews is decent but is not a major threat going forwards or a major obstacle defensively 
    He's kinda like a "nice" full back. Anyway, who are these 2 attacking players?!

    I get the joke, it even raised a slight smile.
    However Sandgaard isn't able to sell the ground due to not owning it.

    This is true, especially with us Lifers. 
  • Matthews is a more than adequate L1 full back (with Gunter), far more pressing areas within the squad
    I like Matthews  , he had good season when we were last in the Championship. Injuries hampered him last season , as did Bowyer's team selections.  Has shown glimpses of quality in the PSF's .

    tea lady could play left back, lets get the ammunition sorted first COYR !!!!
    I'd heard Gunter was able to play in several positions - but didn't realise it was also his job to make the tea.


  • when do we expect the squad numbers to be announced?

    Really disappointed to have missed out on Olgilvie.  He was just what we needed long term as moving forward we saw two years ago that Purrington isn't good enough for the championship. We showed with Stockley that we can compete with Pompey re wages.

    Since Wiggins we have lacked good overlapping pacy full backs. Becoming a really important position in the game these days, often the most athletic players fill these positions. 
    Maybe we have another target, who said we were in for him...
    This.  Ogilvie seems to have taken mythical status on here and the socials.  I can see why people wanted us to sign him but if he was as good as some make out he wouldn't have signed for Pompey. 
    Given that we got the Pompey keeper and then outbid them for Stockley i'm inclined to think that if we wanted Ogilvie we could've got him.
    Someone said he wanted to play centre half this season, perhaps he just didn't fit in with our plans.

  • What a left back Sir Chris was.
  • That review covers nothing that the CL Rumours thread has not already!

    S Henderson coming back as backup goalkeeper allowing MB to go out on loan. Only a rumour  
    That would be interesting, where’s that come from?
  • Stephen Henderson isn't going to sign for us to sit on the bench. He'll get a Prem No3 or Champ No2 gig on much better money.

    Would be happy with that. Hope he still has his Charlton Irish badge!!  ☘️ 😉

    But we are in league 1.  A league 1 that is massively under cooked, in terms of transfers.

    Matthews, Purrington and Gunter aren't Roberto Carlos, Cafu and Maldini.   But they don't need to be.

    When playing at full back none of those 3 were the reason we didn't get promoted last season.  Solid but not spectacular.  It doesn't matter where on the spectrum between Pep's Barcelona and the dog and duck second eleven we are as long as we are better than the other league 1 clubs.

    I don't get the attitude of not caring about what other clubs are doing because it's as equally as important as what we do because funny enough that's who we are up against. 
    i don't disagree - more priority areas definitely and if it wasn't for our tea lady bei ng a bit too kyle walkeresque she probably wouldn't be out with the hamstring issues that have plagued her transition into left back
