  • the current reason we want to sign ex players is cos we are playing and positioned in our shittiest position in our history having spent previous years in better positions 
    so basically we have always been better and want to bring the good times back .
    we were never craving for players to come back in the prem years cos we were at the other end of the scale 

  • Tony would have to go on one of his mazy runs around the Dan Pelchen algorithm, the black box, Roddy's cabal, TS and Jacko if he wanted to sign for Charlton. 

    I think he'd run out of puff long before Jacko gave him the nod.

    He might be worth a January bid now that he seems to have sorted his life out.
    But I think that is the problem. He seems settled in Scotland, near friends and family, familiar surroundings. He leaves and goes to say, Reading, he’d probably fall apart again. He’s doing well, playing every week, earning a decent wage, why put that in jeopardy?
    This is what i assume is the problem. He would probably earn far more than his current salary by playing south of the border.

    Better he stays where he is if he's happy - money isn't everything. 
  • Alexander added: "We can't really compete with a Championship club, or even League One, and some League Two clubs - in fact, a couple of National League clubs, which we've lost players to in the summer.

    I know the finances in football are uneven at the moment, but that's ridiculous
    The sky tv deal for Scotland is 25m a season over 5 years (so about 2m per club). Motherwell's average crowd this season is just under 6k. 3 teams in the National league have higher averages than that, so it's not hard to see why Scottish sides outside the Old Firm struggle.

    If this site is even close to being accurate it's not hard to see why Watt would be considering any offers from English clubs.

    True it isn't but it certainly has more weight in a decision when you probably only have 7-8 years of your career left.

    If the figure in the link is true, then there will be some posters on this forum who earn more than Watt. And he will likely be retired by 35.

    If the salary is way more then fair point - surprised at what he is on.

  • A rather unexpected sideways move at the peak of his career. Hope it works out for him.
  • Good. We can move onwards now.
    I hope he does well.
  • Good luck Tony, hope it works out

  • Great interview with Tony in the latest edition of My Only Desire. He really loved it here it seems, despite some pretty shabby treatment from the club (Katrien).

    Was her shabby treatment his excuse for one of the most abject performances ever by a Charlton player away to Northampton?

  • With the heavyweight Aneke actually being fit for only 1 or 2 games every other month and only 1 other senior forward maybe he's due a comeback. 
  • Great interview from another really good issue. As ever, looks the part too - https://www.modmag.co.uk/product/my-only-desire-issue-6/12


  • TW was exciting to watch. Bring him back.
  • Has anyone said "could do a job for us at this level" yet? 

    Which job is unclear

  • Must be due another move soon. Dundee Utd in chaos...
