Charlton are in the mix for Lee Novak - who has been released by Birmingham City. The Addicks also have an interest in Alex Revell, who is coming out of contract at MK Dons, but he looks more likely to sign for Sheffield United. Novak scored 15 times on loan for Chesterfield last season.
Sounds like we are struggling a bit, no surprises there, Slade may realise he's not had such an upgrade in his job as he may have thought.
Moncur off to Barnsley or similar, Revell to Sheff Utd, only chances we have are old has beens who need a late pay day.
Moncur not signed for anyone as yet so we're still in it.
Big challenge for Katrien. She's never had to pay a fee for a UK based player so the negotiation and brinksmanship will all be new to her.
On a wider not we do this every year. "oh no, it's June and we've not signed anyone". Not defending the regime but lets wait until the first PSF to see what the squad looks like. We could as easily say that we have sold anyone yet either. But we know we'll both buy and sell players before the season starts.

Who have we missed out on?
I am 100% sure we are still an attractive propositon for players. If we are missing out on a few it is because they are overpriced and we don't want them THAT much.
Question .... How many other teams have brought players not many ... nothing will start moving till end of June whe teams start returning for pre season and when contracts expire
Whilst I agree with you on this Slade did state he wanted his squad sorted by the time they returned for preseason.

I would not want us to spend 750,000 on Moncur that would be a very big waste of money , Jed Wallace would be a far better bet and a better player
Just as well the quoted price is £500k then.
My unreliable sources say we still want Moncur and that he was on both Wilder's list given to KM and on Slade's list too.
He's a London boy and would rather stay local but that will only be part of his thinking IMHO.

Post earlier said Barnsley and Peterborough bids of 500k accepted which will rise to 750k with add ons
I will eat my own underpants (yes i have two pairs!!!) IF Charlton Athletic get their business done in short order this year.
1) We are the laughing stock of English football. 2) We have a gross incompetant as CEO. 3) As a club, historically we have NEVER paid the "market rate" for anything. 4) RD is a Guiness World Record holder in the shortest arms longest pockets catagory.
In fact the year Powell et al purchased a whole new team was extraordinary and unprecedented in my known history of this club. My flabber was truly gasted that close season!

It was also reported (by Sky) that he'd spoken to both sides yet had yet to decide on either move.
Sounds like he wants something more local to be fair.
Rosicky is out of contract at Arsenal... that'd be a great signing
After picking up £80k a week for years and 52 league games in 4 seasons I don't think he would have the requisite hunger and desire to mount a league 1 title challenge

Adds on like promotion or games played. If he plays lot of games and helps get us promotion then he will be worth it.

I have faith in Slade and Head doing the business
100% less attractive than a lot of other teams that would normally not be so. They aren't blind to all that is going on, and they know it may be a danger to their career and a lot will have spoke to ex-players of Charlton. Slade in may help but that's as temporary as anything with these guys, something will twig by the end of the season and we'll be looking again. These owners don't do stability as they don't know how to.

But he'll be able to play against premier league academy teams in the JPT...

Yeah, we waiting for the Euro's to finish so we can pick up the likes of Schweinsteiger on the cheap ...
Revell looking more likely to go to Sheff U, getting a bit repetitive this.
not sure that Revell would suit us .. he really made his name with a terrific play off goal for Rotherham against Slade's Orient outfit .. since then Slade has been a bit of a Revell fan and took him to Cardiff where he was not a success .. if it were a choice, Novak or Revell, Novak would be by far the better choice

Slade wants him.
That Morata looks a but useful though.
Adam Lallana / Dele Alli / Harry Kane / Ryan Bertrand / Joe Hart and Fraser Forster!!
Go on then RD, treat us
