Confident that if Kirk's buy-out is £750k then there is no chance he'll be anywhere near Charlton.

Can a release clause be met with add ons etc included ? Eg total package ?

Not completely sure but I would worry about where we are as a "Big L1 club" if we're having to do that to get up to £750k

Isn’t it wonderful how some people like to spend other people’s money?

Valid. But if it IS legitimately tough to find 750k in one go then we probably are going to be in League One for a fair bit longer than expected.

(A fairly big IF, I will grant you.)

So far this today I have heard that Kirk is done, nearly done, that our best and final bid was rejected on Wednesday.

There is a lot of smoke but the only media who have pick up on it is Nixon.  Where is Cawley when you need him!!!!

Sure Nige has his number, maybe he could text Cawley and ask him if it is true

TS should have released a cover version of "Lifes a rollercoaster" far more apt as a charlton song lol

I'm starting to think that the "Charlie Kirk. Charlton Legend" tattoo I got at lunchtime may have been a tad pre-emptive.

At least you won't have wasted too much money on the lettering.

We called off the deal when Messi became available yesterday

So we’ve basically gone from Charlie Kirk and Tom Lowrey - 2 very promising players, to a 33 year 2nd choice goalkeeper who spends most of the time out injured and managed 20 games in 5 years.

Well, good job you didn't get a Todger Gomez one.

Gone because Kirk and Lowery are practicing guitar solos for tomorrow.

Confirmed!

Potentially because we’ve got someone different (better?) lined up? Hope so!

For the optimists amongst us, that means we’re confident of having better options 😊

Or as Boycie would say " a bit premature"

Sounds like Kirk is a done deal.

@Dazzler21

I'm not sure CEL deserves this one!

Agreed I think others have heard before me, my contact replied with 👀 emoji when I asked the question. So as I say sounds like it’s done.

I asked my contact and he replied ‘the next two weeks are crucial’. 

🙁

So have we gone double swoop at Crewe to not even landing our bakc up guy.  Ffs state of us.

Many, many still care!

I don't want to be too negative, because I know there's still plenty of time left in the transfer window, because it's a difficult market, and more broadly because I know how lucky we are to be in this position given where we were last year, but if you'd told us two and a half weeks ago, when we signed Sean Clare, that there wouldn't be any more signings before the start of the season, we'd have been a bit cheesed off.
