    Plenty going on at Charlton in terms of transfers bubbling away. Club have agreed a deal with Real Vallodolid for Zak Bergdich.

    Sounds as if transfer should be wrapped up pretty quickly. He'll get long-term deal.

    Whilst it doesn't explicitly state that he has signed, it does imply that there is a chance something may happen today.

    So - Wiggins out the door (on loan cos he wont pass a medical) and Fox at CB?

    Says agreed a deal, not signed it.

    Agreed with the club, not with the player just yet.

    You alright Dan or has Ackworth hacked your account this morning? ; -)
  • 5 goals on 39 games is pretty good for a left back.

    I'm probably wrong but I can't remember us having many goalscoring full backs?

    Konchesky chipped in but I've just looked and his record was 5 in 149 games, in the short time he was with us Greg Shields scored a few belters!

    Just like I don't want my NFL team to sign Ray Rice I'm not particularly thrilled by this. Before anyone says innocent til proven guilty, his wife spending 15 days in hospital is like being caught with the baseball bat in his hands.

    let's hope you never do jury service eh. Prosecution 'my client ended up spending 15 days in hospital'. You 'guilty as charged'. You have obviously heard of being innocent until proven guilty but don't believe in it. Let's hope you are never accused of something you didn't do.

    Also - the wife had injuries that could take up to 15 days to heal. She wasn't in hospital for 15 days.
  • Welcome Bergdich. Never seen you play, had not heard of you a week ago, could be great, could be shit, likely somewhere in between. Just like all our other signings this window then!

    If personal terms can be agreed then his signing might effectively help solve the CB issue too with Fox a genuine possibility there, especially if we're going to go with 3 CB's and wing backs. That said we'd still need another experienced one.

    Certainly I've been very surprised when it was brought up on here last week just how muted / downplaying the reaction was.

    Would really like to know the FACTS behind this. The were published press reports in April saying he had been charged and arrested for beating his wife.

    "Genoa defender Zakarya Bergdich was arrested and charged with assaulting his wife.

    News agency ANSA reports the 25-year-old Morocco international was stopped by police following a violent row.

    His wife was taken to hospital and medics said her injuries will take around 15 days to heal.

    Bergdich was a January signing on loan from Real Valladolid."

    A day or two later he posted a picture of him and his wife saying don't believe it, it's lies.

    So was he arrested but the charges dropped? was his wife hospitalised? was the whole thing a bizarre pack of lies? If so, is he suing whoever put the lies out?

    Domestic abuse cases have a pretty high conviction rate nowadays.

    Could be as simple as she tried to hit him, he grabbed her wrist and it bruised. That can take a couple of weeks to go down. Similarly it could have been much worse than that. I suspect there's only a couple of people that know the real truth.

    But the fact they seemed pretty happy the day after on twitter means there is a good chance this was blown all out of proportion.

    I have no clue if there's anything amiss with him and his wife. But this is classic sort of stuff after domestic violence. Victim still scared of perp and does as told until ready to end relationship.
    Hopefully there's nothing wrong.

    Or a good chance she is scared to continue with the prosecution like what happens in a lot of cases.

    The other Full back won't pass a medical but don't see why Wiggins won't.
    He has a casual attitude to his injury problems judging by what he said at Bromley last year just 5 days before yet another foot Injury. Unlike Solly's Knees, not certain that Wiggins's different issues will show up in x-rays or a medical.
    All the sicknotes must be on the computer thou ?

    Maybe. The fact is its nobody's business but theirs and shouldn't continually be brought up in the context of a new player signing for the club.

    From what we know it was a one-off isolated incident that could have been nothing and could have been something.

    He's innocent until proven guilty and all we are interested in is whether he can play football.

    Not long ago a Charlton player was accused of committing a very serious crime / crimes. Given the outcome of that, I would of thought most people would have waited until someone was convicted before saying x, y and z.

    Too many unknowns.

    Innocent until proven otherwise.

    No.

    That might be all YOU are interested but don't assume that is all WE are interested in.

    We don't know the details or the outcome of this particular case but I disagree completely that abuse is "nobody's business but theirs"

    Not really when people are paying money for tickets/shirts etc which funds his wages and are then expected to cheer him.
