  • No transfers today…thankfully there is an exciting conclusion to the cricket 🏏 to watch until no rumours emerge tomorrow and the only news will be about a pop up store opening in blue water

    Store opens 10am Thursday, perfect time to announce either the away kit or a new signing, or preferably a new signing in the new kit!

    Please do not start the fish puns on this thread. It is a hard enough read already. When I see 15+ new comments I dive in with more expectation than warranted. Transfer activity being kept closer to their chests than a pair of SHEIN nipple covers. Never mind waterproof, absolute rumour spill proof… Fair play but feels like the ball has been removed from the playground atm. 
    If you're getting hopeful over less than 150 new comments you're out of your mind

    I remember reading the rumour on Ceefax when Javier Saviola was briefly linked to joining us. Was it ever a move that was close to happening? 
    I think we offered Barcelona Osei Sankofa in a straight swap and then the line of communication dried up. To this day I still can’t think why they didn’t return the phone calls. I spent a fortune on the phone to Barca club call.

    If you’re regularly seeing 150 new comments you’re not refreshing often enough

    Did we end up with a picture of one of the top Spanish strikers in a Charlton shirt at one point? Something to do with the Joma link up

    Fernando Morientes and Javier Portillo I believe. 

    This was before Morientes had a disastrous spell at Liverpool.

    I remember Kezman being a rumour the time we signed Rommedahl.

    We will get a few decent signings soon, in my view.

    Patience and keep the faith.

    That was it! Morientes was who I remembered. Cheers

    Feels like this gets touted every time we await new kit releases. When was the last time Charlton actually announced a new signing in the new kit?

    Was a rumour it was a done deal and then Roman's Chelski blew us out the water. Given what he went on to do , probably a lucky escape we didn't pay £5m for him

    Pretty sure this was the last time, less said about it the better


    I don't even remember that kit.

    Portillo was wearing the classic green and purple striped kit too!

    The sad thing is I think Kezman ended up being overwhelmed by the expectations at Chelsea and was behind Gudjohnsen and Drogba from the moment he joined. I think he would have been much better off signing for a smaller team where he played and had time to settle. He'd scored 105 goals in 122 league games for PSV but he never quite got his rhythm back after his confidence died at Chelsea. I honestly think if he'd signed for us his overall career would have been a lot stronger but we'll never know

    Dropped the new linked keeper a message, never know. 


    Reminds me of the Andy Delort saga, when someone was messaging his dad.
    I'll check now to see if any of his relatives have socials. No dramas.

    Was a good signing on paper, just a shame Watson decided he wasn't prepared to run anymore.

    You could have at least gone onto google translate and asked him in Swedish!!

    I can see why he wears that helmet. He looks like the FA Cup

    The others i remember from further back on the infamous Clubcall that fell through right at the death
    Ah, yes Club Call. 

    That cost my employer a lot of money back in the 80s and early 90s 


    In the early -mid 80's I used to phone the cricket score from work. Used to give you the score & last 3 batsmen out. Played the W.Indies in 1984 and there used to be a different last 3 men whenever I called it !

    Still negotiating terms apparently.

    Most people on here would have wanted to sign him and forgiven the fact that Michael didn’t know the first thing about football, let alone play it…as soon as they found out he loved his trains!! 🚂🚂🚂🚂
