If he is only loaned to Derby then presumably he is still an employee of Charlton and Charlton are ultimately responsible for his well being wherever he is training and playing
It's a good job the EFL are as weak as piss. I know the rules allow it, but a loan player playing against his parent club (who only remains with the parent club in order to allow the adopted club to circumnavigate FFP rules) is shady to say the least. Using underhand tactics to get around the regulations should result in both clubs being investigated for bringing the game into disrepute. But the EFL are too spineless to act, luckily for us, otherwise we might have been the first club to have points deducted under FFP who haven't actually got anywhere near the limit.
I don't honestly think he is good enough for the championship. Get what we can for him and move on . He can't cross a ball and is inconsistent. Better players out there . COYR
Only top for assists and second highest goal scorer. Yeah.....wont be missed 🙄.
Surprised nobody else came in for him with a proper transfer offer not this stupid loan situation. He's such a good player and all wonder why nobody else came in with an uncomplicated few hundred k offer.
It is a proper transfer with a fee but been called a loan so Derby can get around some transfer restrictions they are still under.
I know sometimes the final product is lacking, although that’s improved a lot in the last year, but I think we’ll miss him a lot more than people think.
Poku and Mason-Clarke are the best wingers in the league by a long chalk , then it's probably CBT and Mendez-Lang. Hamilton's numbers hardly stick out to me as anything outstanding.
He’s only good when his own players are constantly passing the ball to him, and that only happens if they are confident he is going to get the ball if they kick it towards him and he is going to keep it and use it, otherwise he starts to be a bit anonymous in the game. Will his new teammates keep giving him the ball next week is the key question and if we can stifle him from the outset then he starts to be a passenger for them very quickly.
Fingers crossed his poor start up there continues next week, I am certainly looking forward to the massive cheer in the Covered End the first time Dobson wipes him out.
I'm still seething about this, it's bad enough getting rid of Apples 6 games later than he should've got but whoever is responsible for agreeing that Cbt can play us should be shot.
If, as I suspect we lose both the Derby games it could make all the difference at the end of the season.
This for me sums up not only the sheer stupidity of this Board but also for putting money ahead of survival... £300k is nothing bearing in mind the compensation payment to Holden and Apples. The Board should have taken less and told Derby to feck off.

As Soapy Jones said, we are now a "special" club.
Rumours were that he was refusing to play and had no injury.
Why would we actively want to sell our 2nd most prolific player?
I'm not really comfortable tainting somebody with a rumour/piece of gossip, personally.
Sure he'll be great by his 3rd.
You say he’s the best winger in the league but he’s scored 4 vs CBTs 8, and has 7 assists vs CBTs 6 (going off BBC stats).

They simply don't get it.
