I think he would be. Good left foot and has a bit of quality about him. Him on the set pieces would be ideal - we've lacked a decent dead ball taker for a while now.
Be interesting then to see who is in goal for the new season if we lose Pope then.
You'd expect Stephen Henderson to go seeing that he was still in Marbella when the players reported back for pre-season training, Dimitar Mitov is still very young whilst is Dillon Phillips still injured after his Cheltenham spell?
He's had his off field problems. Kenny Jackett made him train with u21s at Wolves. But he's turned a corner now I reckon and realises this is his last chance.
Didnt we release Ibe because he didnt have the right attitude?
Sounds like that gave him the kick up the backside @ Wycombe to sort himself out
No idea but wouldn't be the first mistake we've made releasing players too soon.
It'll always happen at any Academy.
Just like there can be questions as to how we missed the Wright-Phillips when they were from Greenwich or Chris Smalling who grew up around the Maidstone area

Think that's harsh. The churn of youngsters at all clubs is massive. There will always be examples of young players released by clubs turning it around or developing later. On the whole I think Charltons youth development has been very good.
So basically the phony war is over, they have given up boosting season ticket sales prior to the fire sale. Now we will sell everything we can, below price and dump our morals that made this club different by taking money off a betting company.

Really hard to make a call on a player when he's 12.
I always remember the kid at Ajax - Sonny Pike. What he was and wasn't going to do......never made it and was finished in football at 17
Lookman never got picked up, and look how good a player he is.
Our system in the whole has been generally very good - well at least in my time supporting the club.
great so we can have both o'hara and johnson, who weren't a complete dressing room apocalypse together at wolves
A lot of wot happened at Wolves was down to Kenny jacket , ok Jamie didn't help himself with certain things towards wolves fans , but some of the things jacket did would piss most players off .
I've never heard this before, what did he do
Wot most people get is paper talk , wot happens behind the scenes most of us don't get to hear about Jacket done his bit and some of the players did theirs disharmony does happen both ways , not gonna go into it but certain things happened .
dont think Pope staying or going is a big issue to be honest , Dillion Phillips is a better all round keeper plus I can see the experienced Lewis coming in from Cardiff ....because even if Pope stays our goalkeepers will be very young
We need a new right back Solly injured again with his knee , he cannot be relied on anymore , had very good reports from WHU fans about the young lad we are suppose to be after
How many times have you seen Dillon Phillips play?

I wonder why Burnley don't just buy Philips then. I know he's never played a league game and is recovering from injury but better all round keeper.
Got to love the Solly digs. Going to replace Jackson soon as number 1 rant figure.

You forgot to add the most worrying line... with the aim being to avoid surgery.
Am sure its because avoiding surgery will aid Lennon's career but cant help but wonder if its the classic dithering!!

As well as a knee niggle for Solly!
We must have proper cover for him for L1

Buxton instead?
