    “As everyone is aware, the owner is talking to various parties about a potential takeover and while that is ongoing he has said there will not be funds made available to bring players in on a permanent basis.

    "With Ricky going, however, that does free up some space on the wage bill and Karl, Steve Gallen and the team will be looking at how best to utilise that”

    Shit ...

    More loan signings and free agents. Worked out so well with Dodoo and Best, of course.

    He's shit anyway/he has a negative influence in the dressing room/he sells crack to the youth teams

    Take your pick of the above when he fucks off to help convince yourself this ship isn't sinking.

    I'm glad he's gone, he sold crack to the youth teams

    So from Charlton's financial perspective, well worth him signing that contract then :angry:

    Yep as we'd be near bottom of the league without hi s goals.

    And to think that less that a month ago I was thinking that as I miss going too see Charlton due to my boycott, I was going to buy a half season ticket!

    Terrible mistake to let another decent player go - but nothing anyone can do about it.

    Should have just sold him in the summer

    £400K for our best player who signed a new deal in the summer smacks of a fire sale. "Replacements" is a silly word to use because, realistically, we can't replace Ricky Holmes with anyone as good and even if we could they would cost a lot more than £400K.

    Crazy stuff.

    Terribly predictable. That’s life under Duchatelet. One shit decision after another.

    Another piss up in Newcastle.
  • I’m still waiting for a statement from our acting CEO. Or is he too gutless to say anything.

    I don't care how shit KR thinks Ajose & Vetekele may be, I say bring them both back now !!!!

    Whats the point of trying to borrow someone when we already have 2 of our own players out on loan.

    Any loans or freebies are going to be pants, injured, or both (ala Dodoo & Best) so might as well run with what we've already got.

    Definitely get Ajose back, think the Vetokele situation might be more complicated but if there's a chance to have him back then we should, would walk into our (and most teams in the division) side.
