Can’t blame him but can blame the club for even letting him talk to them. He was happy enough here if we wanted himCovered_End_Lad said:Can’t blame him, if those numbers are correct then he will clear a million pounds after tax over next 3 years. Don’t forget he has spent his whole career in the lower leagues and won’t have earned good money for most of it.
Big pressure on Jones to make this work now, hopefully 2 good strikers on their way in plus better luck with Leaburn and Aneke will mean we are ok2 -
If Jones is calling the shots be worried very worried25
-
Squad looking very weak at present. No goalie any good, no leader in the back 4, no defensive midfielder and no proven fit striker4

How does this make any sense?paulsturgess said:But I think he is clearly going to leave… I just don’t think we’d even be getting bids otherwise0 -
Trust in Jones, hope this move works out for all involved11

Fair play to Alfie. Can't dispute his record, but if a young striker with potential comes in then I can kind of understand cashing in. I think some of us are being very short sighted here to be honest.8

I dunno, not an implausible amount of money if you believe Fraser and Aneke are on c.£6-7k a week as has been mentioned on here before.Exiled_Addick said:Not sure I believe 11k a week. These kinds of rumours always do the rounds when teams lose/lose out on players to rivals - “wanted to move north”, “we couldn’t guarantee him starting every week” etc. It’s always smelt like propaganda put out by one of the unsuccessful suitors, to me, to try and appease their own fans.3 - Sponsored links:

Not quite. Dobson had been sold in January but Jones blocked the deal so in the end his contract ran out.Todds_right_hook said:
Dobson wasn't sold, CBT was only sold because he refused a contract. So that's one sold.charlton_hero said:May, Dobson and CBT all sold in the space of 6 months. Are we still browsing in Waitrose?
Inadequate contract offers to lose two players, that's a different story!!1 -

Isn't this the kind of model that Peterborough do when it comes to strikers? not saying I have faith in the club to replace May with a younger version scoring 20+ goals next season while making a profit and personally think it's madness to sell to a promotion rival but I just hope we don't sell before we have his replacement in first.cafc_se7 said:Fair play to Alfie.

To be fair Southbank said that we didnt have a leader amongst the back four - But be very surprised, and disappointed if Berry isnt a leader amongst the whole squad.sillav nitram said:1 -
CBT sold, Dobson no deal agreed and left, May being sold.
Leaburn, Small and Z.Mitchell all in the last year of their contracts with no new ones agreed.
What does Andy Scott actually do to fill his time up I wonder.29 -
Mitchell?Southbank said:Squad looking very weak at present. No goalie any good, no leader in the back 4, no defensive midfielder and no proven fit striker1 -
All hail the shit sandwich techniqueCovered_End_Lad said:Would expect an incoming or two announced around the same time as May leaving announcement.0 -

So now the football world we live in knows we’re absolutely desperate for a striker or two. Thats the clubs, agents and players. The prices and player expectations just went north.4

Unless of course we already have a couple of deals done and dusted and ready to go.ShootersHillGuru said:So now the football world we live in knows we’re absolutely desperate for a striker or two. Thats the clubs, agents and players. The prices and player expectations just went north.1 -
But he should give funny stampsL0rd_M0ntagu3 said:
Not sure if he’s reliable…0 -
Best winger ????? overrated refused to play pretended to be injured to get his move north … Dobson one he’s a gun to his head to sign the contract he was badly advised and May , not going start games under Jones and with his family already back up north it makes financial senseValley11 said:
Yeah best winger, midfielder and striker - and haven’t really replaced. Maybe Berry for Dobsoncharlton_hero said:May, Dobson and CBT all sold in the space of 6 months. Are we still browsing in Waitrose?

Personally i'd rather keep the striker who guarantees you 20+ goals than sign a young striker with potential.cafc_se7 said:Fair play to Alfie.

Nothing to do with the owners jones makes the decisions , he would not score 20 goals sitting on the benchDavo55 said:

But still think selling a guaranteed 20+ goals a season striker is a massive gamble and if that doesn’t work out I’ll certainly be blaming the SMT and Jones.And all that guff about being with his family in Yorkshire looks like a load of bollocks now.
… Alfie May was prepared to stay at Charlton Athletic this summer but was essentially eased out of the door by manager Nathan Jones,3 -
If we had serious ambition of promotion we’d just do bothChris_from_Sidcup said:

If our budget was 800k higher then May would probably be staying. Jones has probably looked at the budget and thought that selling May to bring a couple extra in would be worth it. It’s jones decision but the budget is set by the ownersRonnieMoore said:

Does Harry Connick JR play football as well?MarcusH26 said:Connick would be an excellent signing , Bristol City have just brought in a 6ft 4 French striker so that could free up Connick if the wages work.0 -
Ipswich will lose Ahadme on a free if he doesn't get sold this season. They've got to be joking asking for £1 mil. Wouldn't surprise me if they don't settle on a bid til the end of the window, though.1
