Thinking outside the box like all good attacking full backs, wing backs and wide forwards (once know as Wingers) do.
Why did Ipswich think he wasn't good enough to be their full back ? Rhetorical question as Ipswich town's ambitions have been higher than Charlton since they went early last season and splashed the cash despite it being a slow burner, results wise.
Doesn't matter to Charlton because he just has to attack down the left and make a few tackles and stay fit. 7's on the score on the doors will be fine and did I mention stay fit !
Best CV video for Cafc since I watched Chris Eagles' 20 best goals; when he signed, Eagles had an open goal at the covered end and headed over when it looked easier to score.
Best to judge players over a whole game because the erratic Sean Clare would look like Cafu in his best bits !
have to admit I'm not really that bothered about this transfer window. Relegation very unlikely as is promotion. Just want to hang on to Leaburn, Ness, Fraser & Dobbo and if we can bring in a couple like Todd (point to prove, out of contract in the summer, take a good look at them now) then great. The summer will be a big rebuilding exercise.
Of greater importance now is who will be owning us and what their ambition is.
Might need to give the first two a pay rise, as Fraser is paid 15x what they are.
I’ll bite. So if Miles is on £500 a week Fraser is on £7,500 a week? If Miles is on less than that we have no chance if a big club comes calling.
True according to this. Apologies if already posted on here but I haven’t come across it.
I don't believe it, has a player being announced on the team sheet ever happened before? It's one of those things like a "pay as you play" contract that doesn't really exist.
I remember striker Ray Treacy being first announced announced on the Charlton team sheet v QPR.

Slightly different but if you remember the start of the 18/19 season stories of JFC doing his ACL started on the Thursday and it was embargoed until the team was announced.
We are looking at Owen Dale. Currently on loan at Portsmouth but hasn't suited their pump it long style. Could do well in Holden's 433.
Good player, thought he stood out more than Kirk when we played against Crewe.
Faint praise indeed comparing him to Kirk 😉. Seems to have done ok at a lower level from his career stats and Blackpool were prepared to take a punt on him. If Kirk and DJ are off, as a winger he’ll be needed in place of them.

That would surely have to be a permanent? He’s one of Pompeys best players so can’t see them letting him come on loan to us. And if he’s available for a permanent they will probably want him themselves so I think that’s unlikely. Would be a brilliant signing though

Well Kirk was highly rated when Crewe were in league 1 but Dale looked like he had a bit more about himself in the games against us, i personally think he'd be good but i also thought DJ would be as well.

Wouldn't be their choice surely.
But yes i agree i can't see him ending a loan there, just to come on loan to us.

I can’t recall seeing either of them play but they were both rated by lots on here however sometimes moves just don’t work out and Kirk’s certainly hasn’t or DJ’s come to that. If we sign Dale and do a swap with Blackpool for Kirk as @mart77 suggested that could suit all parties 🤞.

But I suppose that was in February 1968.
