Henry Irving said:

Just as well I didn't say whoosh or you'd be inboxing me with threats to come round my house with your mates again.

It was a joke, get over yourself.

Get over yourself? I merely stated he wasn’t the league above. I thought it may have been a joke but didn’t find it funny. Apologies if this is a crime, in future I will ensure I correct this. 

And you need to get your facts straight. I never threatened to come round your house with my mates. 

Careful he will name you publicly shortly, another one of Irving's tricks as well as been known to bend the truth somewhat, personally I think the fella is bit of a bully.

What has happened with Acre?

No deal, we're now after Michael Hectare of Chelsea.

If that ain't on loan he won't come for £2.5k per week.

Just seen someone on twitter saying they spoke to Otzumer on the train and said talks have hit the infamous *stumbling block* and tomorrow is crucial... don't know how true it is just passing on info 

Yeah, they looked closely at the contract and it paid him £2500 per week.

Why would anyone discuss wages and contracts to a total stranger they bumped into on a train

Some Charlton fans would even discuss their sex life on a train. 

Some of us started our sex life on a train!🚞🚞🚞🚞🚞

Some of us have a train set instead of a sex life.

Sorry if I've missed this, will Williams be training with us from tomorrow?

Bumped into him on the 11:04 to Sevenoaks earlier, and apparently he will not training with us tomorrow.

Surprised we aren't asking a few like him along to a] boost the numbers b] make sure they're fit if they do accept an offer and c] get them involved enough to give them a nudge towards us.  A few more "trialists" might be useful.

Probably wouldnt be able to go to Spain if thats the case as would add to the numbers on the flight and hotel rooms etc.

I saw his Instagram story and he's down in Tunbridge Wells. Thought he might be with us.

no doubt shopping in The Pantiles, or meeting Fanny Fanackapan for a coffee

Any idea why Bowyer is going so far out in a limb criticising Aribo's Rangers move, comparing them unfavourably with Brentford etc? I cannot see what he has to gain and he is pissing off Rangers fans mightily.

To be fair... Pissing off Rangers fans aint exactly going to impact him much either though is it

Could be worse... they could have linked us with Joe Hart

Ever reliable Football Rumours

18 Jun 2019 13:49:08
Charlton are set to sign experienced goalkeeper Anders Lindegaard on a one year deal from Burnley.

I'd be staggered if we could afford the sort of wages he'd want, a very random rumour that one!

The bloke has had a better career of sitting on the bench than Stack or Stuart Taylor.  I would guess 2 grand a week and never play is good work at his age.  If he doesn't want it I'll have it.

In 10 years he has played 47 games for his club, plus 14 on loan. Great work, if you can get it. 

No expert on Portuguese football but who the bloody hell are FC Famalicao? Capacity of 5000 and seems like they will be competing in the top division for the first time in roughly 25 years. Yes it's the top division but this is a team who are likely to go straight back down and I don't think they could compete in the Champ. 

All that and we don't have the power to financially compete with them? Shows the worrying situation we find ourselves in.

Yeah it's very worrying, if we can't compete with them, who will wanna sign for us? We're only gonna be able to afford league one players, kids and journeymen...

Not sure why a lot of you find it "worrying" did you really think Roland was going to increase the player transfer and wages budget? He is doing what he always does at this time of year.
