Players are going for following reasons wages, and the fact they don't want to stay , Cousins Jorge T and Gudmunnson all want to try their luck at other clubs . Lookman as said many times he does not want to leave but am afraid his agent not listening and still trying to arrange a move for him , the saving grace is he is on a contract with no release clause and charlton valuation of him going to take a team to take a big gamble on him . Diarra as had an offer from a French club but as yet to decide his future. We spent 1.2 mill already and expect more to be spent either in fees or on decent wages to attract players out of contract .
Lookman and Watt won't feature at Welling , Lookman been on duty for England so would say he has extended leave and Watt only started proper training today so Saturday to early for him .
I've been away for a few weeks. Pleased to see Colin is still here, providing comedy in an uncertain world and giving us a target for our frustration. It's going to be a long enough season anyway, and one without PL54 ...
Buxton 32 and now Crofts 32. Both with lots of experience but both free agents who wouldn't cut it should we get promoted. More short termism from the club ?
The club is likely to bring in fees close to £8 million and get some big wages off the books.
Surely we ought to be looking to sign players aged 26 - 27 looking to go places.
I think we've seen our three "marquee" signings and looks likely that replacements for those that leave will be ageing free agents and journeymen.
Sounds very familiar to me.
thing is that players who can do a job in League 1 might not be good enough/suitable IF/when/praying hopefully we get back to the Championship and vice versa.. this mistake has been made before, signing unsuitable players on long term deals .. Slade is an experienced campaigner and he knows who and how he wants to play .. as to 'investing' money in transfer fees .. again .. I don't expect any owner let alone a careful man such as Duchatelet to spend money like a pissed matelot on shore leave ... we've been broke before, we don't want it again ..

Simply - you sign over 30 year olds on a one year contract with an option to renew and a bonus if promoted.
lol ... so good you quote it thrice ((:>) .. I would compromise with 18 month contracts, then if they do a job they can be re-signed irrespective of what division we're in .. look at Jackson J .. 65 and STILL going strong ((:>)
Jamie likes playing at the valley , ie the Fulham game when he ran the show and got mom the Blackpool game when we nicked a late goal , he likes the stadium etc says it's a great place to play ?

Might not like it so much in a Charlton shirt :-)
Henry if I get something concrete I will let you know , but don't always believe the papers you know that .

6 million of player sales with 800k spent could see bigger riots. Bring it on
Grow up .......
Players are going for following reasons wages, and the fact they don't want to stay , Cousins Jorge T and Gudmunnson all want to try their luck at other clubs . Lookman as said many times he does not want to leave but am afraid his agent not listening and still trying to arrange a move for him , the saving grace is he is on a contract with no release clause and charlton valuation of him going to take a team to take a big gamble on him . Diarra as had an offer from a French club but as yet to decide his future. We spent 1.2 mill already and expect more to be spent either in fees or on decent wages to attract players out of contract .
Lookman and Watt won't feature at Welling , Lookman been on duty for England so would say he has extended leave and Watt only started proper training today so Saturday to early for him .
May I suggest you learn to read Colin?
The issue isn't that players like JBG and Cousins (might) want to leave and be sold, it is that the money we would possibly recieved in fees (ca. £6m?!?) has only seen us invest ca. £0.8m in replacements to build our squad - and before you make up stories, Rich Cawley from the SLP has stated that the 800K for Ajose was exaggerated quite a bit.....
Also, why do you feel the need to mindlessly post nonsense in the express desire to aggrivate people? That is a serious question BTW

What is our squad size like at the moment? Slade said we only need 22-25 in the squad didn't he? I imagine that means we wont be seeing too many more coming in and quite a few going out.
Surely we will just be in the same boat as we have been at the start of ever season under this regime - thinking we could do well if only we had a few more decent squad members, especially as we will inevitably bring in some injury prone players to supplement the ones we already have on the books.
If we see ourselves entering September with a front 4 of Watt, Lookman, Novak and AJose I will be impressed and optimistic. At the moment the squad looks pretty good, but surel it'll be pulled apart in the next couple of months?
What youth players will they bring through "too-early" to boost the squad?
26 players including Muldoon
Drops to 23 if and when JBG, Tex and JC leave
Of those 23 three are goalkeepers
so 20 outfield players that include Ba, Bergdich and Cebellos for whom the jury is still out but who could do well at this level.
KAG and THD were filmed training with the U21s but are included in the 26.
Kennedy and Konsa might be able to step up from the U21s
Didn't he run the midfield against us last season or was that for Blackpool the season before?
Both times for Fulham and Blackpool... O'Hara was the one who came out after the game at the Valley and said they had it in the bag until Jackson came on!!
