First signing to come in by the end of the week. Roland was quoted saying "we were going to take our time, but I'll lose my mind if I have to read another thread about shoes on Charlton Life"
Wheresmeticket director of football role. Can't tell you my source sorry
Negotiations are at a very delicate stage. Not helpful. Katrin not returning any of my calls. Or texts. Or facebook messages, special delivery flowers, big cuddly toys, spray-painted messages, or even the one left in lipstick on her hotel bathroom mirror. I hope you're happy with yourself.
We need Vetokele fully fit for next season. He clearly wasn't right since his injury. A fully fit Vetokele and Watt I think would be an awesome front pairing next season, with a couple of decent midfielders to feed them. We need to add to this level of quality not sell on. If a ridiculous offer came in that's different but if not we need to hold onto both of those and JBG.
Gonna be an interesting summer I feel and looking forward to seeing who comes in.

Yassin Moutouakil !!!! Ther's more chance of them signing me ....
The power of the internet can see a story quickly gather pace, with an individual's opinion often bandied about as fact.
Such a story surfaced about Addicks striker, Igor Vetokele, over the weekend.
Vetokele is currently resting the Achilles which has troubled him since October. After starting the season at a blistering pace, Vetokele's goals dried up as the season progressed, and he scored just three goals in his last twenty-six appearances.
Vetokele's game is about pace and power and for this type of player, an Achilles injury is particularly irksome. His relative goal drought highlighted this.
At the recent Player of the Year dinner, Vetokele told me his Achilles was "bad" but he hoped the summer break would see him fully fit in time for pre-season training.
There is no substance to the story linking him with a move to Loftus Road.
After spells at Motherwell and Birmingham, former Charlton keeper, Darren Randolph, will return to London and sign for West Ham ahead of the 2015/16 campaign.
Randolph has made no secret of his desire to play in the Premier League and the move to the Hammers, in their final season at Upton Park, will afford him an excellent opportunity to make his mark in England's top-flight.
West Ham will start their competitive campaign on 2 July, when they contest the qualifying stages of the Europa League.
The Addicks announced another friendly on Monday, when they confirmed a fixture against Sint-Truiden at the Stayen Stadium on Saturday 18 July.
Charlton will travel to Belgium for a week long training camp after their opening pre-season game against Welling on 11 July. The squad will not stay at a hotel, they will be based at Standard Liege's Académie Robert Louis-Dreyfus training complex.
The Addicks will face a top-flight Belgian side on Tuesday 14 July, prior to the Sint-Truiden match.
On their return to England, Guy Luzon's side will play a further four warm-up matches, two of which will be at The Valley.
One of the games could see a former star return to The Valley.
Full details of warm-up schedule will be released by the club later in the week.

Yes of course you did. What is the point of making up something like this? Are you that bored?
A kid put "Igor to QPR for £4m" on Twitter over the weekend and it's been the last straw for some folk.
Wherever he goes, he may take a bit of a hit on his £90k a week salary at QPR.

However much I like Igor though, 5-6m+ would probably be too much to turn down given our own squad building ambitions.
