    The next two weeks could be crucial.

    I prefer the Stingray line of 'anything can happen in the next half hour'.

    That was a completely made up rumour that again has no actual bearing on us signing players between now and then.

    I honestly don't believe there would be a mass unveiling without it leaking. 

    Specifically it leaking who most of them are.  How many signings have we made in the last ten years that haven't leaked days before they are announced?

    Loan signings tend to sneek under the radar.

    Maybe that down to the muppets running the club for the last 10 years !

    i think they are all in the studio at the moment with TS - next week there will be an unveiling of the players with a promotion song like the England world cup team. 'Blow it Out the Division' by Sandman and The League 1 All Stars

    Think about it. TS is in the UK, Nige has gone MIA today as in no video message. It all adds up lol

    All these theories of huge announcements with multiple signings have come up before - but when does it ever happen? Does any club ever do it?

    Have they got a mental owner with a touch of the theatrical about him ?

    Stoke did it a couple of years back I think with them walking through the stadium etc and having different new players pop up

    Pearcey doing a rendition of "Fog Over The Thames" will that do ?

    Final bit of evidence is Henry has disappeared since he errrrr responded the otherday. I hear they have him locked in a secret cavern deep in the museum with no access to social media lol

    Derek was always a bit of a favourite.  No other cricketer could match the product of his talent and scruffiness.

    In summary today: there may or may not be recruitment being done in the background, possibly more than one player, or possibly not, which might be announced on the 9th but maybe not.

    Sure they have it all in hand, so chilll everybody and have another beer B)

    hahaha exactly mate. And if the 9th comes and goes with nothing happening then atleast we have had the anticipation before the dissappoinment, which after all is what supporting Charlton is all about

    I will say I don't believe we'd have managed to keep every signing a secret.

    With that in mind, we've either signed very few or no players at this stage.

    I don't care either way, but it'd be nice to have some signings announced soon.

    I remember the Di Canio signing was a total ‘out of the blue’ event.

    My mate rang me in the middle of Bluewater & I thought she was totally pulling my leg 😝😂😂

    Trust Bowyer to stick his oar in, just no getting away from his input in our affairs is there.

    @Dazzler21 Is there an update on the ITK chart . There have been some interesting developments over the past few days .
    I heard a rumour Daz was updating it but I'm waiting for it to be on the OS.
    I can assure both of you, I've kind of given up we get like 5/6 new pages and actually there appears to be no actual rumours. I'm quite busy at the mo so simply don't have the time to be wading through.

    Certainly nothing from credible sources
