It's encouraging to be linked with the likes of Moncur, Novak, Hutchinson and O'Hara. British players rather than Belgian part timers. Less encouraging to be linked with Martin and Gobern. Released by Coventry and Huddersfield. Hope KM doesn't try to do this 'buying British' thing on the mega cheap.

Were they released or did they decide against signing new Contracts?
Wouldn't be impressed with either if they were in the starting 11. Would be decent as squad players.
Have you seen them both play?. What do you know about them?.
Yes Gobern played for the Huddersfield team back in league 1 when we were promoted as champions. I'd compare him to Jordan Cousins but not as good. Seen Aaron Martin play for Southampton and Palace and would agree with what Mowbray said about him in the SLP article.
Don't recognise either player to be honest... Aaron Martin doesn't sound bad though, has a lot of experience, sounds like a combined Morrison / Taylor sort of signing based on the sort of clubs he's played for
Who would possibly be stupid enough to sell a player like Morrison?

To be fair Bob Peeters is the third best Manager we've ever had

When a player 4th choice and asks to go out on loan to get game time who would be stupid enough not to let him go
But then to let him go an a free to a rival is mental.

I don't think that anyone is that bothered about this whole British thing anyway! I think Miere has misinterpreted the fans, and thinks (cynically) we can be appeased by picking up a few British free transfers.
No, Katie. It's not necessarily British we're after...it's quality. If they happen to be both, great...but I'm not going to cry if they're foreign and class. No one was complaining about Buyens, and Kashi (if he stays) is one of the best on our books.
I just don't want this to turn in to something along the lines of "Well...we did what you wanted and got a British manager and British Signings...it's still not worked so we'll just go out and get another Anil Koc and you can all shut up whilst I continue the masterplan. We tried it your way and it didn't work. We know best, so nyanyanyanyanyanyaaaaa."

I'm not sure people are grasping the concept that "budget" equates to the whole package as in Signing on, Wages, agents fees as well a transfer fee. So if we sign free transfers then it still comes out the budget. I'm no expert but at this level I'd imagine transfer fees would total less than 20% of transfers which float around.

It depends if you then also plan to sack the manager who deemed him to be fourth choice behind two ageing, short-term signings that were both released that summer, and the only other CB sold. That wouldn't happen at Charlton though would it?

He was 4th choice for one reason, we thought some very dodgy other CB's were better.

One very dodgy in Bikey, who was actaully a rock for the first third of the season. Then Ben Haim and Gomez (who admittedly was playing at right back at the time but a natural CB) who were both quality. Can see why he was out of favour at the time but the club did take a very short-term view on that one for sure.

Free transfer means they're all shit - yeh, course it does!

I loathe this regime.
Support the team, loathe the regime.
Unless you're Eric Cantona tackling a Palace fan of course
