At last - a proper left back!

Bloody hell, we actually signed a left back. On a permanent deal. Are we SURE this is Charlton...?

Edun was named in team of the tournament when England won the U19 European championships back in 2017.

Is anyone else...excited for this season?

We still need more but the signings we've made seem really good.

I'm going to guess...13. We have 1-11 (I believe: Jones-2, Ness-5, Fraser-10, Miles-11). But I could see it being a fun one, like 25.

Fumbluff

No time to get excited about this signing, I hear we’re in for a Burton Albion player too….where’s my season ticket savings pot???

 Adetayo Oluwatosin Olusegun Adio Aduramigba Iretioluwa Edun .. possibly the longest name in professional football ?

Do you remember Charlie Oatway?

Was going to mention him, he was named after QPRs 1973 team. 

Weird that his preferred name is not one of the eleven he could choose from!

Maybe he fucking hated QPR

Or loved cocaine

Sounds like a tin bath falling down the stairs.

With all those names, I don’t think he’s gone room on his shirt, for a shirt number!

These signing announcement videos are usually shite (everyone’s not just ours), but that one did make me chuckle.

I think this will prove to be a good signing at our level, but I put very little credence in those England/International Under X players that won something to validate it.  

All the actual good players go on to play at the top of the game if good enough, the others, like JFC for example, end up with us.  It’s not a factor that has any weighting imo

How did he end up choosing Charlie, and not any of the 11 other names he had 😂

First game he commits a vey bad foul.

Ref says' sorry son I'm booking you what's your name?'

'Adetayo Oluwatosin Olusegun Adio Aduramigba Iretioluwa Edun' he replies.

'What' says the ref

'Adetayo Oluwatosin Olusegun Adio Aduramigba Iretioluwa Edun' he replies again

Ref says ' ok son I'll let you off this time but don't do it again'.

Pleased it's permanent, we've been crying out for a proper LB for years it feels like. 

Converted from a midfielder by Michael Appleton whilst at Lincoln.

But who's complaining.....

... you, normally.

Post of the day! Sorry Golfie

Less than 100 games in his career so far according to wiki but 34 caps for England up to under 20s which is reassuring.
