Went to check out that link, Scoham and it's one of those daft old forums that doesn't show threads, so I gave up!
We are very lucky to have a thoroughly modern message board - some of those I have come across from other clubs really are crap.
Welcome, Domo.
Checked out that story. If we have fended off champ clubs to get Stephens then it is a very good sign indeed of the persuasive power and weight that we now have at the club.
Cheers Bigstemarra! Can't be a bad signing if loads of Championship clubs are after him, but like others, I don't really know much about the guy to be honest. A Southampton friend of mine seems to rate the guy, so fingers crossed he'll turn out decent. Am already starting to buzz about the new season, our side is really starting to take shape, especially if Green signs too!
He looks like he's facing a sniper and has just realised the hostage he was using as a human shield has given him the slip, leaving him just holding the shirt.
It's a coup because other teams were in for him. Teams in higher divisions.
Fair play to Mr Slater and co - good targets identified and seemingly signed up
Couple of defenders and we're looking exciting
Oldham fan here, he's not really fast or particularly skill-full (not in the sense he's full of tricks and always beats his man). But he's got a great pass on him and very good technique for this division and of course has got a good shot on him. He isn't a runner or a nitty gritty tackler, but if you've got someone along side him to do all that then you've got a very good forward thinking midfield player, he can pick out passes on the spot and spray play around the park.
375k has been reported is a bit too low for my liking, I think we could have held out for 500k. I'm disappointed he's gone because he's a quality midfielder, but we all expected he'd be off after he was loaned out to Southampton last season. I hope we'll start signing some players now, Clayton Donaldson would be nice! So yeah, disappointed with the fee, for a player under contract for another 3 seasons I think we've sold ourselves pretty short.
A very good signing for you, I hope we have some future incentives added on as I think he'll go quite far in the game. I wish him all the best, apart from when you visit Boundary Park and when we visit The Valley.
Welcome Jcartwell, thanks for the comments on Dale Stephens, but if you are reading the rest of this thread and thinking WTF...you aren't the only one.
Spent all last year reading on this site how shite our midfield was, all holding, no creating, not providing any service to BWP and whoever he was partnered with that week. Well, there you go. Fill your boots. But no! Too many bloody midfielders!
Thats better. Thats the family friendly Charlton way.
I love him too.
No, but I REALLY love him. He must be more bored about the Green thread than we are. And his own ''who have we signed'' thread must be beyond tedious. So he has searched out any link to his club and landed on CL.
Actually, no. for his own well-being - HEY CARTWELL! Leave now! If you stay it will be years of endless circular debate about Curbs, Leaburn, trains, imaginary signings, meaningless car-park pot-hole opinions, sky TV dates, take-away identities and stuff.
Leave now while you still have the how-much-is-it-to-Oldham, Moors murderer thread
Thank You Mr JCartwell for your time and effort to enlighten us. No, this ain't a "bloody northerner" rant, because I (and I know many others on this site) appreciate your words. To Me He sounds abit like Mark Kinsella: As He himself admits without the "Ball winner" beside Him ( in this case Keith Jones) He would not have been the player He was. Personally I'm abit worried about our lack of defence, but,hey, when you you support CAFC and KentCCC you learn to live with disappointment.
