I still think Hector will sign. I thought he did really well, but don’t think he did enough to show any championship club he is worth signing to be in their starting 11.3

New money
Most of the u18’s signing contracts, including Patrick Casey. I heard clubs were circling him and I could not be more chuffed that he has stayed with us for the next three years. 42 goals last season!
No dickheads policy
It just all seems so much more positive.
Other than we have been shafted for years, why are you feeling so negative? Are you hoping TS stays or happy he is going?0 -

Lots of talk about an improved budget.
I shall wait until we actually start spending money before getting over excited.
The proof of the pudding and all that.6 -

Got any proof of that? Other than "It's wot Tommy said."Redrobo said:
Given that the potential new owners have spent a fortune trying to buy the Club and have overcome huge obstacles just to get this far, and given that they must be supporting the offers made to so many of our youth players, and given that at least one of them is seriously rich, what is your gut feeling on their ability to pass the EFL tests and then build a team to get promoted?Croydon said:

They’ve got to announce a kit today or tomorrow for us to wear on Saturday so maybe we will get a new signing wearing a new kitsillav nitram said:

It may just be wage budget which is improved - ie able to attract players on £5k a week rather than £3k a week. No matter how much money is available wages or fees, it is all about how wisely it is spent and how aligned management are to the signings. Hopefully the black box/laptop is somewhere near the seabed of the North Sea…blackpool72 said:Lots of talk about an improved budget.

There are a multitude of reasons why we may not sign Alfie May, but we definitely spoke to him on more than one occasion. I’d like to hope that it is because Holden thinks we can get better but we shall see if that turns out to be the case.3

This. May might not have fitted into Holdens view of how he wants things which is fair enough but unless we have someone else lined up who is going to score a hatful of goals then we won’t be promotion material.mart77 said:There are a multitude of reasons why we may not sign Alfie May, but we definitely spoke to him on more than one occasion.

I doubt we will sign many (if any) better players than Alfie May, but we will hopefully be signing better suited players to the way Holden wants us to playmart77 said:There are a multitude of reasons why we may not sign Alfie May, but we definitely spoke to him on more than one occasion.

Let’s just see what happens. Lots of things can change.. Jonny Williams prime example. Until the ink is dry and released in to the media anything can happensillav nitram said:

This happens to me every window. I start by feeling underwhelmed by the potential targets ( May and Tunnicliffe) , do my research and end up disappointed when they don't sign.
I would have accepted May but I hope we are in for better players. Going down a Division for more money doesn't feel like a positive move.0 -
While I agree, tbf to the ‘meltdowners’, in-the-know posters have at recent times this summer claimed May was a target and was having a medical - so hardly surprising some are disappointed when news emerges that he’s now signing for a League Two club.000__Jaaaaay__000 said:Never understand the meltdown people have when we ‘miss out’ on a player we were never in for4 - Sponsored links:

Is he the big fella we need to replace Inniss?TelMc32 said:https://twitter.com/richcawleyslp/status/1674357241988751362?s=46&t=iIn3ttZdyuW0i2mQ6x00-g
Cawley says we’re interested in Cambridge CB Lloyd Jones,
At 6'3" he apparently only weighs 75kgs, which is very light for that height. Your standard CB in the Premier League is around 90kgs.
Perhaps it doesn't matter at our level, but I still feel we need a beast at the back.0 -

Exactly this. It's like the Cole Stockton saga all over again. Why aren't we in for him, club is showing no ambition if we don't sign him, he's exactly what we need etc etc. And yet despite what we think on this forum, not only do Charlton not sign him, but no other top half league one club (or in May's case potentially ANY league one club) sign him either.Taxi_Lad said:IMO if May goes to Gills then he clearly ain’t good enough for a Lg1 promotion push
I'll be the first to admit i'm surprised we're not interested given his record but i've not seen much of the player at all, but the fact that at least a dozen sets of league one managers/scouting teams who could afford to sign him clearly aren't interested says a lot.1 -

It’s probably not accurate which can be the case for lower league players. Around the time we signed Dale Stephens several sites said he was 5 ft 7 when he was about 6 ft.JamesSeed said:

According to my sources Gillingham are paying more than all but a handful of league 1 clubs.Oggy Red said:
Ain't good enough or follow the money, one last big pay day?Taxi_Lad said:IMO if May goes to Gills then he clearly ain’t good enough for a Lg1 promotion push
Gillingham big payers? Maybe not, but May gets the chance to come home to Kent.4
