  • Burke is currently 5th choice CB, jones and koumetio being first choice with Collins and bell the back ups, personally I would be absolutely fine with moving Burke on and having Gough as the 5th choice - would free up funds, wages and importantly a squad space to spend elsewhere.

    Ultimately the issue will be that no team will take him on at his current wage given his injury history, which is why it was a bit silly giving him a 2 year contract in the first place.
    Is he though Jones and Koumetio look like our starting two, but bell isn’t really a CB in a 4 and personally think he’s looked a bit off it this preseason, Sichenje is coming off a long injury and is a unknown quantity Burke could very well be 3rd. 

    Bell Koumetio Sichenje all have injury issues as well no guarantee they last the season I personally am happy to us an extra squad place on Burke knowing there’s a good chance 2/3 of them could be injured at any point and it maintains the quality of the starting XI unfair on Gough to be chucked in the deep end and he’s also not going to bring the same quality as our other CB’s
    Also CBs tend to get more cards, so as well as injuries, there's suspensions to consider...
  • That's the next thing is it? Crying over the squad numbers?

    I would say make a signing and cheer everyone up but even that won't work as the next signing will be shit and that we will be relegated as a result!
  • Didnt we have GK with 99 or did I imagine that?
  • We’ve almost hit 1.5 million views on this thread and we’ve still not signed Jack Grealish!

    If we did as a straight man on the cusp of his 52nd birthday, I would get far too excited, love him as a player and has a certain class about him.
  • Well alarm bells were ringing.
    He was on sky sports this morning, sporting a new haircut.

    I wondered if he’d been down to the barbers in New Eltham, you never know….

    George, The Stourbridge Station Cat has hit 6.8 million views in the last 28 days. We are seriously lagging. (He's a real cutie BTW).

    And 13 is a lucky number in Italy, it's a sign......
  • The issue with Burke vs Gough, isn't that Burke isn't a better player than Gough at this stage, which he is. It's that he takes up a squad place, when we are over the limit, and thus is a luxury. 
    Gave me a migraine :D

    Within 10 mins we’d have him forever castigated for not tracking back.

    George would be a paw signing, sorry I couldn’t resist!

    Not good enough for us, but good enough for a side chasing promotion.

    Yep, lots of wannabe comedians looping the same jokes over and over.

    Yep , deal agreed.

    Dykes wore 99
  • A left back wearing 18 feels wrong and it upsets me that we've let this happen.
    How did you feel about Konchesky wearing it? Although, Curbs did like playing him on the left wing...

    No I'm not, you got an issue with that?
    Ignore him, ProperCharlton, he is just trying to stir up trouble.
  • Best bit of news all transfer window Dykes signing for Millwall.😁
  • Nailed on Derby day winner from Dykes now he's gone there 
  • 1 Year Deal.

    Apparently turned down a longer deal with us.

    Lisbie & Dykes get a hat-trick each i'd imagine. Danny Mac is getting 7 though
  • 1 Year Deal.

    Thank God for that.

  • Dykes has turned down a long term deal with us and will join Millwall instead. 
  • 1 Year Deal.

    Apparently turned down a longer deal with us.
    He's signed for a team that will probably be challenging for the play offs rather than for a team that will be fighting to stay up.
    Probably on a higher wage as well. 
  • I know Dykes is marmite, but will we sign better than him, with our budget?
