Big season for Chris Powell at @CAFCofficial. Gower in and potentially Forrester and Obika to follow suit shortly #cafc
Sorry to burst the bubble here (as acutally I quite rate Forrester) but I think this is a fake account - the correct account I believe is @ducancastles and he works The Times

Yeah I believe you're right. Saying that Palace are going to pay £18 mill for a player was a small clue :0)
I know some on here dislike Bailey because of that penalty, however he has played at this level for four years and would bring that experience to our squad. The only thing that annoyed me was his rolling on the floor like a Bayern player.
Would take NB back in a heartbeat. One of the few players of his era with us to come out with any credit. So he missed a penalty. Every penalty taker does. Would add quality and goals. I don't however believe a word of it.

4 goals in 98 appearances since joining the boro. Not that impressive really is it?

To be fair, playing in a very defensive role under Mowbray.
I'm not sure about Bailey. I'd be happy enough if he re-signed but i also wouldn't be disappointed if he didn't. As people have said his goal tally at Boro is down to a different role played there. He would add goals to our midfield and if his defensive capabilities have improved then all the better, but does make yo wonder why Boro let him go. Scored some cracking goals for us when he was here before. i was just disappointed more with when he left than the penalty miss.
Mate of mine who is a Leyton Orient fan said he was close to signing for them. He told me that 4 days ago. I doubted that at the time also.
Bailey was fine for Charlton. It was a step up for him when he joined and he was one of the few players in the Pardew/Parkinson relegation season that looked up to it. He carried the goal-threat for the team the following season and I couldn't give a rub about one penalty in a shoot-out. He was a major factor in getting to the play-offs in the first place.
Boro changed his role (which seemed weird to me at the time) but apparently he adapted to it pretty well. IF he were to return to Charlton, he could play left-mid, if we wanted to keep it narrow but still offer a goal threat or he could play as one of a central 3 in midfield with say Gower and Jackson.
Somehow we do have to squeeze a few more goals out of our midfield, in case Jackson gets injured or loses form.

Very good points, Simonsen, and I recall his cracking volley from well outside the box at home to Wolves. But it worries me that Boro - who are no great shakes - are letting him go.

nice find btw.
Looks like it is a fake account though. A bit weird if you ask me. Here's the real bloke: https://twitter.com/DuncanCastles
A bit more digging shows this:
Least he put some effort into our tweet - Steve Clarke to Bayern Munich!

I'm being told Charlton have signed Nicky Bailey. #CAFC

Chris Solly is being looked at by numerous championship and premier league clubs, I presume he will not go for cheap #cafc
Doubt it is true.
