Comments

  • He's a tidy little player, technically very sound, battles hard and ultimately want's to play football. He comes from Palace? So what! Wiggins, Powell, Bright, Whyte.....etc etc they all had Palace connections at some point!

    If he's good enough, sign him up.

    Palace are a league above us and have finished above us every season since our relegation from the Prem
    They are , at present, clearly a better and bigger club than us due to their Premiership survival last year
    So one of their cast offs has every chance of improving the Belgian bores squad at Charlton
    Just be grateful that it's palace in that position, think how much worse this would all feel if it was millwall

    Every word of this is the absolute truth of the current situation, no matter how much some may not like it.
    we know that cause Oohaah only deals in the truth ;)
    85% of the time, the other 15% is just made up :wink:

    The list of players who have played for both Palace and Charlton is a long one. We've even had a few who went from us to Palace and came back (Flanagan, Humphrey and Mortimer). Truth is, it's never really been a problem. Bannan's a very tidy player, so it's a yes from me.

    Good player. Bannan would be a good buy.

    Loan.. fair difference. Plenty we've been enquiring about of late, Barry would be a good improvement to our slacking midfield but not sure either him or club would want it tbf
    cheer up its Friday.
    You're pretty reliably predictable with your replies to me. As I've said a hundred times before it's a forum, accept someone else's comments and if you don't then pick it up with them... the amount of times you tell me to cheer up or cut the noose or similar is quite frankly embarassing on your behalf.

    FWIW I'm very happy, just have my doubts on loans and the way our club is being run, and rightfully so on both accounts

    AA, surely, it's rightly so on both counts ?





    Sorry, just trying to be funny.

    You can add Don Townsend ,Freddie Lucas and Les Fell to those who went Selhurst.

    Honestly, if he did come I wouldn't be that excited. Loses the ball often and not big enough to impose himself on the opposition.

    Just my personal opinion though.

    You've childishly hit the abuse flag again.

    Pardew has confirmed Bannan will be going out on loan tomorrow. Would be a very welcome addition but sadly can't see it.

    Would be a good addition but to be honest we really need some fire power and someone with creativity and he definately ain't that sort of player,

    I thought he was supposed to be a creative midfielder?

    He hasn't scored many goals but I think he's supposed to be a pretty neat player. Wonder if Holloway will get him over to Millwall though....he's signed him twice before.

    He's a bit of a running joke amongst Villa fans. Was billed as a potential Champions League player five years ago but his career keeps faltering.

    Couldn't get in the Villa team.
    Can't get in the Palace team, or even on the bench.

    The kind of signing we'd make 5-6 years ago such as Bouazza, Soares etc.
