Saw Scott Minto in Hays Galleria who very kindly stopped for a longer chat than he would have cared for. What an absolute top bloke. A reminiscing chat tbf and not sure why I am putting it on this thread 🤣 but just chuffed that he was willing to give as much time as he did to little old me. Thought I would share with my Charltonlife family.
Our recruitment this summer has been really good? Maybe not quite enough of it, but I don't see many flaws otherwise
You could make the argument that our recruitment was really good last year (no laughing at the back). More than half the starting 11 today were, probably, signed last year. That's not including CBT either.
I am not making it, but I could see how someone could.
Not sure on that. We finished 13th last year can't say recruitment was really good.
If they can postpone all football until January, we might be able to sign a new striker and get Chuks fit
The former more likely than the latter but both as likely as euro lottery win.
Chucks was fit to play last week, but carry on.
Was he?? Good news if true where has that been said?
Hopefully Garner has learned a lesson about Chuks and won't overplay him. Think the injury is slightly down to him not appreciating how fragile Chuks is and keeping him on in that friendly when it was clear he was shot in the first half.

I’m not that bothered by this. I think anyone who comes in won’t make enough of a difference. It’s not like we were likely to get anyone better than Stockley, which we need (imo). I think we’re just likely to bring in a body. The mistake was in assuming Stockley can lead the line and lack of preparation as a whole. Getting someone in now, unless a Kermorgant, would just be shutting the stable door after the horse has bolted
any striker would have purely another body for the sake of it. We clearly made a mistake not going one it, but that couldn't really be corrected once the window had closed.
It would seem we are not getting a proper striker as we have missed the deadline yet again. some less optimistic fans to myself think promotion is now highly unlikely and attendance at the Valley will slowly decline. I say that if we are in the top 8/10 by January and if our Ego driven owner invests in a proper Striker then we will see, as Goals get results get points 👍 we are all so used to lies, Bullshit and broken promises that anything could happen 🤮

You're aware that 'striker' was Macauley Bonne? Proper? Might he have made a silkier purse out of the sow's ear that passed for service in to Miles Leaburn last night? All ifs and maybes as Skintgaard pulled the rug and we're lumbered with our rabble of League 2 free transfers, youngsters, outcasts and crocks.

It was QPR that pulled the rug nothing to do with Charlton .. plus we only went after Bonne because BG number one target got his move to a championship club

Misinformation. 'Pulled the rug'? Making things up doesn't help.

So we went all transfer window chasing Scully then on deadline day he went to Wigan we turned to Bonne? If so what a plan.

This brilliant strategy of waiting until the last minute when fees supposedly come down and other teams panic seems to be somewhat flawed.

We were never going to sign Bonne, it was all smoke and mirrors to keep the fans happy. That statement on the web site when the window closed was probably written before lunch on the same day well before 11.00pm
