Here we go for transfer deadline day, or as it's known at Charlton, Thursday.
Seriously though, I fully expect at least one new signing. As for exits, I'd be happy if all three of those identified as surplus to requirements leave. In fact, if serious money is offered, I'd be happy for any of our number to leave, with one exception. I saw enough in the Cambridge game to conclude that George Dobson is too important to us to lose.
If JFC remains, I'd like to see him given a run as LB.
Agree.
Both Matthews and Purrington were decent players but were limited because of their lack of pace. The reason why I wanted Clare at RB (I have never seen Mandela Egbo play) is because he has the abilities to play that position which needs speed as an attacking RB.
JFC doesn't have pace and LB and RB need mobility in those positions as the remit has demanded more.0 -

I felt when BG came in that JFC would be a player that would thrive in a footballing system, but from the early friendlies he looked slow and ponderous in possession IMO. I can see why you would think it would work and I can see why it hasn't and perhaps those in the SMT fell into the same traps.king addick said:
Haha Ill admit I skim read as nothing usually relevant! The trying to recoup a fee for him still makes sense though and as someone else said, he would be a cheap squad player at least.supaclive said:
Martin Saandgard said to jbaker last night there have been no enquiries. I read other posts before commenting 😉king addick said:
After paying his medical bills after 2 ACL injuries the club are entitled to try and get money for him.supaclive said:
He (as part of the SMT football team) gave JFC a contract less than 3 months ago. Which they didn't have to. Now they want rid and nobody wants him.......jbaker said:Feel like MS is very easy to get on with and enjoys talking to fans about the club. Definitely seemed frustrated about the lack of outgoings.
Who said nobody wants him anywho? Could be the same as Gilbey where he just wont move.
There are always players that look amazing for one manager and like they are robbing a living elsewhere. We have signed our fair share!0 -
...and there we were always hearing that Gilbs was one of the best midfielders in the league. Player of the season at his former club too you know!!0

He’s had good info in the past… fingers crossed8 -
Well said although trust me I’ve been on the other end of it plenty - I think MS was rewarding those in the hospitality suite yesterday actually and can see it being marketed - ‘the rumour lounge’ - £500, 3 course meal and an ear full of snippetsPavoren007 said:Can I just say (and btw I put myself in the camp I am about to refer to from time to time sometimes too, so not digging anybody out personally) that we really should stop moaning and embrace rumours on a rumours page a bit more positively and for what they are.As for source info, when Duchatelet told us nothing, we moaned we wanted to hear more, when the Sandgaards share more openly, moaning that their sharing is unprofessional/crossing the line etc. Just leaves my head spinning and those sharing I suspect questioning why bother sharing? I certainly am. I enjoy hearing some insight into the goings on at the club having invested 35 years of my life supporting it and applaud those owning it for being more up front than most before. I am quite happy just talking with my lad about it as we are as potty mad about Charlton as one another, but if others are positively interested perhaps think twice about putting posters/sources of info off…by being critical. Those sources do read this site (not every post every day), but they are interested in the fan’s thoughts, feedback, views etc, so am sure will decide to go the other way and stay schtum if they are being roundly criticised on here for doing something we all wanted in the first place…🤦🏻♂️8 - Sponsored links:

Imagine turning down the town of Lincoln so you can play in Stevenage instead. I didn't know I could disrespect him any more, but here we are26

Amazing what grammar can do to a sentence. He says we are trying to snatch the McKirdy money.5

Gilbey would be a fantastic signing for any league 2 side. Reckon that’ll be a move that will work out well for all parties.0

Can’t wait for Gilbey to knock us out the cup in November in cup his ears to us when he scores1

He really did NOT go just through the.motions last nigjt. He put a good shift in.CL_Phantom said:randy andy said:Wouldn't be surprised if JFC is released if we don't sell him today. Makes sense to hold on to him whilst a fee is possible, but if contract clauses make him essentially unavailable for league games the can't see why we'd hold on to him once the change of a fee has gone.
Or probably he'll be loaned out and hope some interest comes along for a Jan sale as last chance for some dollar dollar bill y'all.
Don't think it'll be worthwhile playing him if he's here, the match thread last night made it sound like he was just going through the motions.
Look at the marks he got to see that most people agree with this.5 -
Jbaker vs CEL
Wheelan vs The Sausage Dog
Just need @marksprin vs Ronnie Moore to round off the undercard and what a day this will turn out to be.
