Scored 25 goals in League Two last year but most in the first half of the season.The Red Robin said:Is Jay Simpson really good enough for a side chasing promotion?
Only League Two but you could say the same thing about Holmes.

Doubt RD will pay out for too many expensive attacking players. Sounds like an RD signing, probably not too expensive, only one good season, down to Slade to get the best out of him.0 -
Dunno... Some bloke called Russell Slade (I've never heard of him either) signed him for Leyton Orient when they were a League One side.Callumcafc said:Why is Jay Simpson at Orient in the first place?

I'd be happy with Simpson. Looks like the three uptop will have goals in them. I'm sure people will talk about creativity but what was Simpsons service like last season, or Ajoses at Swindon. Holmes should have a trick and a bit of magic about him and yes it would be nice to bring in someone central who can make it happen, but this is League One. Expect a lot of full backs clipping channels, winning possession high up and getting balls in the box. It ain't gonna be pretty, but it'll be effective.8

Looking at one stats site... Both Dean Cox and Ollie Palmer got seven assists each in League Two for Orient last season.ValleyGary said:I'd be happy with Simpson.

Not a huge amount for 46 games. I'd be slightly disappointed if Holmes never got that by himself. Then factor in Harriott, Jacskon on set pieces.ForeverAddickted said:

In order for Harriott to get assists it would require him to beat the first man consistently which he has to prove this season.
Jackson on set pieces - can be a threat but I can't remember the last time he was consistently threatening. He was 30 when we were last at this level - he is about to turn 34 now. I won't say 'legs have gone' but we can't rely on him overly.0 -
Ideally what we need is a couple of players being able to chip in.ValleyGary said:

Last season everyone faced knew that our creativity would come from Johann so doubled up on him... That'll soon happen with Holmes0 -

If we could only have one I'd much prefer Cox (Shut it you dirty bar stewards) over SimpsonSir Chrissy said:

Good quote from Slade which confirms once again that Simon Clark will be remaining part of his coaching setup: between Kevin and Simon Clark I think we have two really capable coaches that will only help to make us a better team.0 -
He will have pissed Katrien off already talking about our history and tradition1

Experienced in this division, in English football and knows the manager.
Lets hope he's the only assistant we have compared to the six we had last season8 -
good appointment.0

Plenty of coaching/backroom links between Charlton and Luton, with Nathan Jones, Paul Hart and Jared Roberts-Smith at Luton, and us now taking Kevin Nugent from them!0

Good appointment and really important that Slade gets the bloke he wanted to assist him and who he has a successful past with.4

Good news. Also good that he's managed to get out to Austria for the tail end of the week, so he can start to get to know the players and see for himself what is needed in terms of reinforcements.1

Worked with Slade before so seems to be his choice.ShootersHillGuru said:Another Meire appointment ?

"Nugent began his playing career with the O’s, making 94 league appearances and scoring 20 goals between 1985 and 1992. From there, he joined Plymouth Argyle and would spend three years in Cornwall, before switching to Bristol City and then Cardiff City."

Plymouth is now in Cornwall apparently!12 -
Plymouth is in Devon you thick twats.
Who writes that shit on the CAFC web site, joke of a club.5 -
History, geography what do they matter, according to SLP Pope returned from Charlton's training camp in Portugal.
What does any of it matter until the cretins that own and run our club leave1 -
Maybe Nugent was living in Cornwall while he was playing for Plymouth. Or maybe the people writing on the OS are thick twats?eaststandmike said:Plymouth is in Devon you thick twats.

Charlton's first match is in Carmarthenshire against Bury. The team will travel up and stay in a hotel in Dover the night before the game.26
