    Fraser couldn't have made it any clearer that he doesn't want to be here.

    Whilst Fraser has been a massive disappointment this season, I would (until now) have been happy to see him back next season if NJ felt he could get a tune out of him. I think his ideal role is behind the front two and is where we have been most lacking viable options under NJ.

    I sincerely hope and doubt we'll ever find out now whether we could have seen Fraser finally fulfill his potential for us, because I don't for a second think NJ will tolerate or want a player who congratulates goals that are scored against us whilst he is still on the payroll.

    I don't feel that it's double standards to feel this way either.
    Definite no for me, and that was before Bonne’s goal. NJ plays Anderson in that role as his energy and aggression is must in the team, it makes us a lot harder to beat. We need players with that as well as ability on the ball. Fraser is never going to offer both sides of the game. He looked to me like a player happy to be on a decent contract without pushing himself too much.
  • Very likely to be a final day push of the transfer window to try and off load him to anyone who’s desperate for him. Can’t see him ever playing for Charlton again, unless he someone becomes capable of covering the amount of distance that Dobson/Anderson cover per a match.

    Think he's someone that will be hard to shift , I don't think anyone at League 1 level will be after him that's for sure. Probably a deadline day move north of the border

    I dont see too much of a problem. Ex team mate scores a goal. And for Bonne it was his first goal for Cambridge. Just a thumbs up from a mate saying well done. 
    Drop him a text to say well done then. Don’t put it out there on a public forum, when you’re still an employee of the club scored against and that club subsidises your wages. 
    Yeah.....kids don't do texts or calls anymore. It's all on Insta or Twitter.

    Fraser is 29. He's done that to be snide prick and surely you must be able to see that

    Luxury player, flattered to deceive and now showing his true colours. A bad egg in my book who had a high opinion of himself and coasted through games if he didn’t fancy it. The sooner he’s permanently off the books the better.

    Not sure how he’s managed to develop such a high opinion of himself - he’s won about as much in the game as I have.

    He’s been crap for Hearts by all accounts so maybe not as easy to shift as we might hope.

    THIS - my mate has a good friend who is a Heart’s season ticket holder - the texts my mate has been sent are hilarious, they think he is utter dog eggs - the text ‘oh my God, what is this pile of shite Charlton have sent us, Fraser is fucking lazy and dreadful’ resonated hugely 😂😂😂

    He managed 23 mins off the bench for Hearts yesterday.

    We'll never get Fraser off the payroll unless we do a deal whereby we make up a proportion of the substantial shortfall in wages during the last year of his exorbitant contract should he manage to get a gig north of the border. It clearly won't be with Hearts, who appear to have taken little time to rumble him.

    Could end up being a Kirk scenario where we end up paying him off🤦‍♂️

    Yep, I’d say that’s a definite possibility.

    He couldn't pull the skin off a rice pudding, and walks around the pitch pointing for the most part, usually where he wants his teammates to run to cover him.

    Even that was because hearts were 4-2 up and have Rangers next week in the Scottish cup Semi final, he won’t get near the pitch at Hamden

    We really have had some utter brain dead wankers play for us over the years. That like was intentional and he knew it would be public. Proper man-child behaviour. 

    As much as we need to get the right players in next season, Jones, as he's highlighted himself, needs the right characters. 

    You look at some of these personalities we have been signing like Kirk, Bonne, Gilbey, Fraser etc, just utter bellends. 

    Then you speak with players like May and Dobson and it's a world of difference, just nice humans who happen to be good at football. 

    We need more characters like this, really winds me up that we get these bellend chancers and they have the opportunity, that the majority of us could only dream of, and completely take the piss out of it.

    See ya Fraser, you won't be missed among all the other league 1 Charlton rejects.

    I find players like Fraser so frustrating. He clearly has a lot of ability in the locker, can pass the ball well, shoot, create chances but his workrate is shocking. It would be ok if he is a player who is walking but winning you games, then you get others to do his running for him, like Savage and Tugay at Blackburn years ago. When you see ayers like Tevez, Aguero, Salah, Mane, Kane, Watkins and all of Man Citys midfield work so hard out of possession and they are some of the best players in the world yet players like Scott Fraser see it as beneath them and are playing in the 3rd tier of English football. He isn't the only culprit, we have sniffed players like that out over the last few years. 

    People give Elliot Lee shit but that guy worked his bollocks off out of possession and still makes things happen

    Congrats on being the Eltham Pirlo ;-)

    I’d rather play with 10 men than have him back. He’s a passenger. Totally disinterested for the most part of his time at Charlton. And let’s not forget his behaviour after we were tonked 6-0 at Ipswich.

    Well, it's not me thats been singing his name & calling him the Scottish Pirlo.

    I couldn't give a toss what he does. He has a year left on his contract & if the fans & Jones want him gone you might have to be prepared to pay up his contract or get some other mug club to take him.

    Plus half a dozen others if you believe what Jones says.

    That should be Scottish Polo. 
    Every time he plays, there’s a hole in the middle. 

    Bravo 👏

    Sick to the back teeth of players who we’ve given a chance to returning the favour by taking the piss out of us. We’ve had some proper immature to$$ers in the last couple of years.

    Maybe he just hates Isted and wanted to rub that goal in his face?
