Any rumours around how many we're looking to sign? A CM (seems Arter is done or very close), a striker and a left back are a must.
A back up keeper and another winger would be good to have.Centre back is an interesting one, with the amount of game time Deji is getting I don’t expect us to sign one, but if Inniss picks up a long term injury it’s a lot of pressure on him. Is he on a pro contract?
On unrealistic signings an attacking right back would be good but that seems very unlikely to happen with Matthews and Gunter here.3 -
He’s either injured in which case we wouldn’t be signing him or he’s had a pre season but just not much game time. I think it’s safe to assume that even Charlton don’t sign players that are injured.0

With all the midfielders we've brought in, and with him seemingly a bit out of favour at the moment, could Dobson end up playing more at CB? That's where he started his career after all0

Signing 31 years olds ain't the "Brentford way," Thomas.
Did not know that. Can you provide those repeated quotes in a link here? Would like to read them.

In February he confirmed his instinct is to keep the academy:Asked if Charlton could follow in the Bees’ footsteps, Sandgaard said: “My gut instinct about this is that I’d rather be smarter about how we develop our academy players than totally get rid of it.
“Now the transfer window is closed we’ve got time to look at our structure and how we maximise it.”
In December he talked about admiring Brentford but not doing everything the same way.

Q: You have outlined a very ambitious target to get to the Premier League. How do you plan to succeed where many Championship clubs have failed, even with parachute money?
TS: To me, it’s not about parachute money or anything like that. It’s just about being smart about it, and creating a foundation so that we have the right kinds of players, are smart about what players we buy, what players we put out on loan, what players we sell. If we start today, in a few years we might have some really great talent coming up from the academy. It’s about grooming all those parts, and improving the odds and the probability. It’s not one smart move or the flick of a switch. I’m not sure I’m going to do everything the same way, but what they’ve done over at Brentford, with very little money, is very impressive.
Last season Brentford signed Winston Reid on loan, he was 32 at the time - so there are even occasions when Brentford don't do things the "Brentford way".

Scott Parker's brother in law isn't he,Arter?8

I give you a recent one the one that comes to mind. Rhys Williams who as I recall hadn't played for months. And then proceeded to play wonder around for us in a couple of games where we got tonked.0 -
With Arter basically done bar the announcement video , Left Back and right footed CB next? And then see last minute if anything budges on Dempsey/Lowery and a striker?1

Wouldn't be overly comfortable if we lost Famewo for a extended period and had to go with JP0 -

There is no 3rd and 4th choice. MK Dons showed that Deji is the backup for Inniss, and Pearce I'd assume is the backup for Famewo.4

1) Left back (urgent)
2) Striker (if Stockley is injured we are fucked)
3) right sided centre back (Inniss made of glass)4 -

It's OK Nigel, we know what you're trying to say 😂
’mate he’s been playing fortnite for most of the last 18 months, was laboured even before that, better suited to antiques roadshow than football these days. Even in our bomb squad, we’d honestly pay 100k for somebody to take him away and get him spayed’
Doesn’t seem like he’s especially popular up there!Good pedigree historically but have to say I’d rather we were getting a younger hungry player than another on their way outer… but we are desperate.4 -

If Arter has been on the way down for a while, he most definitely has something to prove and also as he never got his chance at Charlton when younger it's now or never. I hope it's a pleasant homecoming.3
