    I’m bored of this saga so I’m saying nothing more.

    hopefully we can pull out some decent replacements from the money we look likely to be receiving.  Rest assure any money coming in will be spent on the team 



    Swisdom, you reported what 99% of CL posters would've done with having Alfie as a neighbour and your inside track of CAFC.
    Keep up the good work 👏🏼

    Despite many Charlton fans and critics being discombobulated with May moving on I believe you should be happy that you won't have to replace any more windows when he emulates his off-drive for 6 during the summer months.

    My Nephew is the British number 3 hammer thrower and he is looking to buy in your area.
    We have 3 hammer throwers?

    Yes indeed:
    The first two GB throwers are decent but my nephew Henry throws the hammer a long way but not always in the right direction.
    With that in mind I’ll take a swerve on sending you the link!  I like my windows

    Apparently Burton and Birmingham are currently interested in Luis Suarez - yes, the bitey one!

    would he be of interest to our fan base?

    certainly something to chew over!

    Going to Birmingham doesn't really tally with the moving to be closer to her family line.

    OK, Brum is closer to Doncaster than Snodland but it's not exactly the easy commute that Huddersfield is.

    WIOTOS
    Has May got the same agent as Dale Stephens??

    Alfie May does have a Dale Stephens SATNAV so don't rule out Plymouth.
    Not sure he wants to go that far north.

    Was there any word on who the other free agent that has been training with us? I know Teddy Bishop was mentioned as one. 
    Teddy Bishop? I thought we were no longer shopping at Lidl?

    Must be tough to choose between Miami or the Midlands

    If a 20 goals a season player does not fit the way Jones wants to set his team up then change the system or better still try your system elsewhere there are plenty more good managers out there 
    Wow so one player trumps the manager of a team… this is why with fans like this, the reason we will never get anywhere soon. 
    What do fans have to do with the reason we never get anywhere (or otherwise) ?

    In broad terms (not aimed at you or indeed any fan in particular).... quite a lot, potentially. The wish for quite some time has been for a manager to actually manage and not being beholden to a "Director of Football" type and be able to make his own decisions.

    We seem to have done just that, Jones has repeatedly stated he is the one making the decisions but because one of those is controversial, already people are saying he's rubbish and they never liked him anyway.

    A bit of cynicism and wariness is understandable in the circumstances but the risk of a toxic environment is high. Some pressure is natural and even beneficial but it can easily spill over into detrimental.

    Why would a Championship team want Godden and not May?

    Cheaper and more proven in the Championship?

    Can see why a newly promoted side like Oxford would be very interested in Godden , plenty of championship experience and I doubt the fee would be too ridiculous for someone that's going to be 33 by the start of the season and unlikely to be in Covs plans.

    Because Godden a better option he a better all round player .. not just goalscoring but his assists as well , May never played higher them mid table league one think people see him 
    as a risk … given age and price

    Langstaff.  We shoukd have tried signing him last season. Too late now.

    I've only seen Millwall properly linked to Langstaff by good solid sources , not seen anything about Oxford or Swansea.... Would be surprised if anyone in League 1 could afford him unless Birmingham want to pair him with Alfie

    Would’ve been too late last summer too. As soon as any Championship team knew there’s a chance he’s off they would’ve been in for him. It’s not as if he was some unknown quantity 12 months ago.

    Brum won't want 2 small forwards,They usually have big players

    Jutkewicz and May even though Jutkewicz is getting on is quite a scary prospect.

    Jesus I want to know what @golfaddick did when we sold Darren Bent. Have you only just started going back to the Valley to watch games again after that ban? 
    Hardly the same situation is it ? We'd been relegated from the Premier League & we didnt sell him to a team in the same division. 

    But apart from that......🙄
    And made a substantial profit, unlike the meagre one with May.

    Almost as if the experts know more about football than people on this forum? Funny old game.

    My 1st post here in years. I've seen loads of great players leave our club. My all time hero was Marvin Hinton. But I'm first a loyal fan you either accept it or not.


    Good to see a senior fan back.
    I would never have guessed that Marvin was your favourite 😃

    Cheaper. 

    The same reason Rotherham signed Washington a couple of years ago.

    To be far to May he can't do the assists and score! He's the only one that can score, so might as well be the one in the middle. Being out wide is nuts, but then we had nobody who could put in a decent cross for him (after our other half decent crosser was sold to a rival). Hmm a theme developing!!??

    That’s why you need to strikers both scoring .. not relying on just one
