The latest score after taking an early lead with Sonny:
Charlton: 7Sonny Carey - Blackpool (Free)Thomas Kaminski - Luton (Undisclosed)Tanto Olaofe - Stockport (Undisclosed)Amari'i Bell - Luton (Free)Reece Burke - Luton (Undisclosed)Joe Rankin-Costello - Blackburn (Undisclosed)Rob Apter - Blackpool (Undisclosed)
Under the radar 1

Maybe with social media and local journalists on line and the myriad of podcasts around the country, 'Under the radar' is going the same way as the dodo, Betamax, Topic and time out chocolate bars.0 -

That said, he'd have a great mentor in Godden.
I'm a bit meh about it if I'm honest.
That was credit to the amazing Cafc defence which shackled Both Kone and Kelman in the semi finals and final.
I judge forwards over a season not one match where Kelman managed 46 app which wasn't too shabby as he got battered by league 1 defenders yet still scored 23 goals and 5 assists in 24/25 in a bang average side which over achieved to get to Wembley.
With both Kelman and the impressive Galbraith gone, Orient will struggle to be in the top 12 this season.5 -

we weren't midtable and didnt lose 12 out of 13 in 2007 when we went down though. nice story I suppose. fairly certain orient weren't even in L1 when we arrived there in 2009. Can't comment on thr tax.. but I'd take a wild punt that it's all bollox

Are they purposely trying to create some sort of rivalry with someone/anyone because they've had none for the past 150 years of their existence?

The club obviously wants to spend and spend wisely on polishing the attacking unit. NJ didn't hint at this; he stated it.Queens Park Orient might have messed up our preference of negotiating quietly.Ideal four forwards to play and rotate, amongst TC, but I remain merely hopeful.Kelman/GoddenTanto/Leaburn1

If they're offering him 20-30k a week like they do some players then I can see him wanting that move. Probably helps his chances being a regular in the USA team as well as it feels MLS players get priority there. Would be good timing with the World Cup around the corner.7 -
For what it's worth I imagine we are/were interested in both Kelman and Knibbs even if only in a speculative way to see if either was available - both have qualities I think we might be looking for.
That said I don't know if either ever progressed to "serious" interest on the level of bids being made and in either case we'll have other options.
If either/both did happen, great, but I put both of them firmly in the "probably not happening" box personally.3 -

Redrobo said:Diebythesword said:I’d eat my hat if we get Kelman and knibbs. Would need silly money to get them imo and I doubt either reading or qpr would want to sell.
Knibbs has a year left on his contract and is unlikely to sign another with undoubtedly better wages else where so Reading would be stupid not to cash in while they can.
Buy both and Yates and move on Godden.2 -
AberystwythAddick said:Wrexham apparently have 10mill to spend on a striker, luckily I think that probably puts them out of the pond we are looking in for a striker

I'm surprised our owners haven't tapped into the US market yet, be that in players, a pre season game or even more exposure over there.

Some Charlton related transfer bits I've seen over the weekend.
- Apparently Everton have nabbed one our 16YO's - Reuben Gokah, not one I've heard but confirmed on The Athletic
- Matt Penney has signed for Aldershot Town, being a season ticket holder, I'll report back on his progress, they seem very excited
- Saw an account on IG saying Knibbs was interesting Oxford, Pompey and Sheff Utd. With the later preparing a £2.5m bid.
A friend who's also a little ITK also reported that we have good money to invest in forward but only if we believe it's someone they could trade up down the line.8 -
RedRobin said:Not fully Charlton related but ex player Alfie May is apparently signing for Huddersfield for £1.2m, do wonder if we included a sell on?0

Kelman is an interesting one, i'd be pretty surprised if we went in for in. He wouldn't be cheap, and i doubt QPR would sell to a rival anyway. I don't think it would be a guarantee Kelman would start for us anyway - can't see this one happening at all.1

Both Kelman and Knibbs are 5 ft 9. I'd have thought we'd want more of a target man type of striker.3

Harvey Knibbs is a Jones prototype player.1

The next time someone says 'we need to sign a target man' when we have Olaofe, Leaburn and Mbick on the staff, I will scream22

So... Who else thinks we need some height up front... I think we're seriously lacking with options in that area6

You're all forgetting we have Ahadme, will be like a new signing8
