    Is ahadme the other striker we are in for or is there anyone else.
    He is but Ipswich still
    holding out for 1 mill we offered 500,000 -600,000 
    No where near that valuation IMO and would hardly ever make their bench in the Prem. 

    So we should move on down the list.

    A quick look at the Lincoln forum, and they seem to think Bishop and Mandriou were their most creative players last season. Both have left.

    My guess is we'll see Bishop and Godden announced before we go away to Slovenia. We'll then add Ahadme, a GK and another CB before the windows end. 
    And Dobson, hopefully.

    Still don't believe that will be enough, the midfield desperately needs creativity/pace.

    For example:

    GK
    Mitchell - Jones - Gillesphey
    Ramsay - Dobson - Coventry - Small
    Berry
    Ahadme - Godden

    Mannion, REG, Edwards, Bishop, Anderson, Kanu, Aneke. With players like Campbell and Leaburn in the squad/when fit etc.

    Is good, but is it categorically stronger than last season?

    Think we need more, much more.
    Woefully short, we need so much more in midfield

    I expect it's 1 CM if everyone stays as is and 2 if Taylor goes. I'm not really counting Henry as I expect he'll be off either to the National League or Notts County with Stuart Maynard the ex Wealdstone manager.
    What if Fraser goes? That would free up bigger wages than Taylor or Henry.

    I'd be shocked if we didn't get another left-sided CB and possibly a proper experienced leader for the middle spot. Gillesphey isn't a very Jones sort of player. I feel like Jones will want a winger as well, a very quick and unpredictable change of pace sort of player that he can bring on to disrupt teams when we need a goal

    Honestly I'd forgotten he was still around . Fully expect we'll have to pay him off to get him out the door though.

    @bobmunro of this parish has been close to the Stoke City regime.
    Now Bob is a discreet diplomatic stand up kind of fellow, but at the time Nathan Jones was appointed Bob kind of enigmatically hinted at some misgivings about Nathan Jones, but as a gentleman didn’t elaborate.
    But a seed was planted.
    I remember that stuff because of recent talk about how Nathan Jones and Alfie May were getting along.
    I am not the only fan who wonders what @bobmunro was hinting at.
    I have had similar reservations about Nathan following Bob Munro's post, as I respect his opinion.
    However, at the moment we can only hope that he is the right man for the job. All the moaning on this forum is a waste of time as we have no control over incomings or outgoings.

    Bit on Davies.. So he had agreed a deal to sign for us, but then for the last 10 days, he was meant to come down to complete medical and sign the contract, but every day another excuse, then late last week, he said other opportunities haver come to light, and want to explore, then asked for more money.. He well and truly f****d us about.. We move on.. It is now silly season, will be a lot of agreements but don't progress.. But that is the football industry for you.. 

    It is football... so I don't get your point!
    That the line that has been served up on here is along the lines of 'we are shopping in a different market now' and already 'money' is the stumbling block. We even needed money so much so, that we have sold the biggest goal threat in the league to a promotion rival, that we can't get near in terms of resources. 

    I don't believe a word these owners say. This will be a constant thing this window. The harsh reality is, we had 4 good players last season, 3 have left/been sold, and the other is yet to sign a contract extension. 

    May has been sold to fund the incomings we have had, so far. It will not shock me at all if we break even this window, or thereabouts, which we cannot afford to do. We have all just witnessed one of the worst Charlton sides ever, the only ones who were stopping us from being the worst side in the league, are all gone bar a couple. 

    We need to spend a fair few million to turn this mess around, do I see us doing that? No. As we have already cashed in, or attempted to cash in (Dobsons case) on all our best players so far. 

    I just don't see how this is any different from the previous owners/windows we have had.
    Everyone keeps going on about we lost 4 good players.. They have been part of a side that has finished lower half of league 1.. That is a fact! It is about the team, not individuals. 
    This doesn't make any sense... Can't believe it keeps coming up so often! 

    It's like blaming the lifeboats for the ship sinking
    He's not blamed anyone, he has simply suggested they might have been good individually, but it wasn't a proper team. We need a team, not individuals to get promoted.

    Can't see Taylor leaving, he's a very well thought off player who had bad luck with injuries
    Is he though?

    Is he well thought of? Played age group football for 2 different nations, including captaining Wales U21 and is highly rated by NTT20

    Yes it is stronger, but I agree we need at least 2-3 more for depth. Anderson and Kanu aren't reliable yet, Campbell must be in last chance saloon by now. Aneke is well.... Aneke. So whatever we get from him is a bonus. And obviously we need that solid Number 1, not one that flaps like AMB or panics like Isted, but better... I can almost see us starting the season with Mannion in sticks.

    That Ezra guy also thinks Appleton is a brilliant manager. They are just two blokes. 

    The more prescient question is whether Taylor is highly thought of by Jones, and there's not much evidence for that so far.

    Absolutely agree , barely had a chance with injury so I'd definitely give him a chance this season to show what he can do.

    Remember the sky game under Bowyer when Bishop and Charles just ran us ragged for 90 mins for Accrington. 
    me too, what's depressing is 2 seasons ago we could have had the pair of them for less than we sold May for

    Over the years I've noticed a pattern. When a player is first rumoured until the point they sign for us, there is a noticeable shift - they slowly become more and more highly rated. 

    (Of course there are exceptions, like Marquis).
