Not really a rumour but transfer related. I feel like I can share now people have actually moved on. A few years back we had agreed a deal to sign Ivan Toney. This would have meant us receiving a fee for Lyle who wanted out. 11th hour Pboro increased their asking price for Toney. This meant we had to get out buyer to increase there big for Lyle which they refused. The whole thing fell apart, massive row between Lyle and Steve Gallen and that was basically Taylor from then on saying he wouldn’t play again. Toney went to move to Brentford instead and we ended up hunt out to dry. Lyle went on to Forest on about 25k a week. . . Relating this to now, really wouldn’t surprise me if JCH ends up somewhere this window. Pboro are renowned for being shrewd operators and I just can’t see they are going to let him run the contact down. I can see a deal where Pboro still contribute a % of his wages for his next move if they get a fee, or basically give some of the transfer fee to
Think it was published that Taylor refused to play for the club after COVID because he did not want to get injured , Toney did not join Brentford till very late in 2020 long time after Taylor went on strike ?
JCH is totally diff he has an offer on the table from a foreign club basically he wants the same from an English club believed to be around 15k a week .. which he won’t get , he did not even feature in the Mickey Mouse the cup the other day so it’s clear he happy just to sit out the season in Peterbro reserves … he might go on loan ? think Peterbro want his 7k per week wages off the books
Was told that direct from Steve Gallen. No reason to believe it wasn’t true.

And then Lee Bowyer & the club went to extraordinary lengths to make up the 'Lyle is worried about injury' story to protect Lyle, who was actually refusing to play in a relegation battle over a transfer? Why would they do that... That doesn't make sense.
Also struggling with the idea that we were buying Toney when he later went to Brentford for £10million, or that Tahnoon was willing to put a penny into the club for transfers, or that he even could have... given he had yet to prove funding to the EFL.
From memory think we had agreed £4m. But needed to get 3m for Taylor. Obviously didn’t happen and the whole thing fell apart. Would love to actually spend a day on deadline seeing how it all actually works.
Dobson's goal against Ipswich last seasonepitomises exactly what he is all about, never gives up, right place right time, and dragging the team to the finish line. It would be a real shame if he does go, hes been a positive over the last few seasons, and a good reason to to turn up each game. really suprised if he does go Hungary, suprised League 1 or Championship club arent in for him.
Not Charlton related, but anyone surprised just how little incoming business the Premier League clubs have done? Window ends next week and just 11 arrivals at Prem league clubs so far

Clearly they don’t have a proper plan and passionate owners like us and Carlisle.

Think FFP is playing a big part, a few teams close to the line and most need to sell before they can buy
Plus less risk of relegation than usual for a lot of teams so we are getting less panic buys

Wasn’t there talk of Toney joining in August when RD owned the club, as well as in January under ESI? I assume the former is what jbaker is referring to.
Didn’t Southall pretend he was heading off to sign Toney, knowing full well that we were under a transfer embargo?

Roland sold the club in November 2019 I think. Lyle refused to play in June 2020.
Yes. Sold the club for a quid having turned down £34m a few months earlier. Respected businessman.

The £1 was for just the football business. Not the properties.

Sold a heavy loss making business for a quid but retained the valuable properties underneath is in fact a very shrewd piece of business. Currently ticking over at £500k income per year on the rental and will no doubt get at least £25m when he finally sells.

Agreed with your comment, but didnt want to hit 'like' cos Roland is a cnut.
Seems like the transfers have dried up now that Appleton has gone. After last Sat & tues evening there is even more reason to bring in some new blood.
Having the SMT having to deal with the time consuming and difficult process of employing a new manager will have scuppered the equally difficult and time consuming process of signing players. Piss poor timing.

It was shit business. If he gets £25M when he sells and could have got £34M 5 years ago. Not only will he get less ultimately the time value of money and high inflation since erodes his return even further

7 not enough then .. they will slow down now cause teams will hold to their players till the last day in case of injuries .. and know that they ask higher fees on the last day as teams

I know that of course. But the net result was that Roland got £1 and some rental income going forward. How long will he have to rent the stadium for to get £34m. And who could he sell the freeholds to other than the club?

Always going to go quiet in week 3 of Jan with or without the sacking of MA. There will be a deadline day flurry (hopefully) but nothing until then is my uninformed guess.
