    Surely we can wait for another 60 mins or so before calling this window either way and / or suggesting the need for a meltdown 
    Yeah, because after 3 months of the window being open signing someone with 60 mins to go is seen as a positive & part of a plan. 
    All clubs are doing it… it’s how it goes. It’s not ‘typical Charlton’ - it’s transfer deadline day. Like other clubs we’ve done most of our business already. 
    I don't think you've been paying attention. We've not "done most of our business already". We are still 5 or 6 players short of what is needed & dome players we've brought in (Clare & Dodson) are average League 1 players. And we've still not replaced last seasons top goal scorer. 

    But apart from that everything's peachy.
    5 or 6, give over
    I agree 5 or 6 is OTT but I’d like as a minimum a LB, an attacking CM, a striker.
    2 strikers if Schwartz is not going to feature. And that means relying on Davison coming good & no injuries to Stockley & Washington. Or have you forgotten what happened when Taylor went off to Montserrat in the Championship season...?

    What he means is "5 or 6" that are acceptable to him. Truth is we could sign 5 or 6 people in the next 10 minutes and it still wouldn't be good enough. It never is. Just ignore him.

    He’s not wrong. Have you seen our squad? So short in most departments. 
    GK, of which they said can be done after the window.

    LB, agree.

    STK, back up needed.

    There’s a CB about to be signed.  So I make it 2 short, do you not think you’re being a tad dramatic?
    x1 winger 
    x1 good DM

    If we don’t bring in a LB it will be criminal. Akin to Bowyer not bringing in a centre half in January.

    Goalkeeper | Left-Back | Striker are the only departments at the moment we're short in...

    Centre-Back as well, but at least we've got the rumour that Lavelle is coming
    We're short on wingers too

    We aint even taken our full quota of loans have we?
    Two slots left
    Got to assume we will take 2 loaness then unless Adkins has told those above that he's happy to bleed in our youngsters.
    I won't argue if that's the plan.
    At this time of the night I cant see Lavelle and two loans coming in.

    Its a frustrating / bitter sweet scenario if we dont fill our quota as towards the end of the season there were a lot of complaints about people getting fed up of us signing five loans each summer as we need to build our own squad

    So its good we've reduced our quota at the present.

    But we still need a Left-Back
    We definitely should not feel obliged to use 5 loans just because we can have up to 5 loans in a matchday squad.

    However, we are going to end up obliged to use 5 loans because we don't have a sufficient number of senior players under permanent contract.
    Pretty much. If we don't take 5 loans then we are putting a lot of trust in our youngsters in this league.

    Elerewe is the only youth player close to the level needed for the first team squad just now.
    We have a few good youth players.
    Would fans be happy us playing them in a tough L1?
    Adkins might be thinking its the way forward.
    Clayden might get 10 minutes now and again. Who else do you think could help us win games this season? Nobody I have seen yet for sure.

    wheres  Chris Parkes ?
    He wasn’t at the game tonight so safe to assume he’s doing something.  I wonder what it could be

    Ipswich have signed half the bloody planet and are doing naff. I would be content with just a LB. I certainly dont wish TS any bad blood for this window. Think he exaggerates but has certainly invested. Just not to the level of a Saudi prince.

    It’s like people need something to hang their anger on, and a left back signing is it

    Why ignore someone cos you don’t agree with what they say? Many won’t agree with people saying for months that Tommy will have a promotion squad by 11pm when that truly isn’t gonna be the case. I would rather a realist in life than someone who buries their head in the sand and settles for second best.
