It would be surprising to me if not. Adkins is 1) a genuinely nice bloke and 2) a fairly experienced and canny operator. He'd know the value of having a good relationship with the local press which in our current situation is basically Cawley and Benjy Nurick and that's about it.eastterrace6168 said:
I thought the direct line was with Bowyer, are we sure it has been transfered to Nige?RedRobin said:Tucker isn’t signing, Cawley has already confirmed this a few times. I can’t see Mullin signing either as again Cawley has said he isn’t one we are looking at, he’s got a direct line into Gallen/Adkins I’d be surprised if he’s wrong!!1 -
maybe they've not yet finalised the fee, but are happy enough with the region to allow discussions.ShootersHillGuru said:
The issue might (not itk) be about structure of payments rather than the fee itself. Pure guess.Braziliance said:
How can Jack Tucker be being shown around if we haven't agreed a fee with Gillingham? He's under contract until the summer of 2022 with them, would be pretty weird if we haven't agreed to sign him and he would be chatting to a different clubs manager and be being shown around..Addicks59 said:Mullins in sat was it.Boyle going to Oxford.Tucker was at the club on sat for a chat with nige and to be shown around BUT no agreement on fee as yet.I think
Infact is that even legal, surely a breach of contract?0 -
Exactly, that seems to be the set up. He only comments on things that are categorically untrue or not going to happen, which he has on both Tucker and Mullin. I think someone’s chain is being yanked!cfgs said:
This, Cawley knows a lot, the club tell him stuff but also what he can report and when. For his cooperation he gets lots of access but in payment he carries stories that the club want and only when they want.RedRobin said:Tucker isn’t signing, Cawley has already confirmed this a few times.

You are arguing with me about mullins take your arguments to him agent who has SAID he has signed for us.0

I have seen the agent thing on Wikipedia but have not actually seen where he is meant to have said it. As in did he supposedly tell somebody that or did he say it to a reporter, big difference.Addicks59 said:You are arguing with me about mullins take your arguments to him agent who has SAID he has signed for us.0 -
If we're playing that game, his words re: Pigott were. "Reference tucker and pig I am sure about them as best as you can be".eaststandmike said:
Yesterday you said when asked that Mullin had "signed" on Saturday, indicating it was a done deal. Here is you exact words.Addicks59 said:Mullins in sat was it.Boyle going to Oxford.Tucker was at the club on sat for a chat with nige and to be shown around BUT no agreement on fee as yet.I think
"Signed sat. Tucker has agreed term but it is got to be agreed with gills what price.Boyle not sure but NA wants him in".
I'm the idiot that didn't understand the joke.0 -
Where has Kenny Swain said this? I’ve goggled it and can find no such thing being said.1

Mullin is not signing for us, never was.23

I think it's fairly common for uncontracted players to train at former clubsthenewbie said:
Honestly I can see that, he was down here for quite a while and probably has soon good mates in the squad (and seemed pretty popular with the other players too.) Letting him train as a favour doesn't signify too much - wasn't Rob Elliot training at the club for a bit before signing for Watford?Chunes said:Someone said Williams was offered 2 weeks training with us to get fit.
After all there must be lots of players without a club out there, and it's the interest of everyone in the wider football world that they stay fit. After all while us getting Jonny fit may benefit another club, we'll benefit in turn from free agents who've been training at other clubs. Hadn't Gunter been training at Reading before he joined us, for example?1 -

Haven't had a transfer window as poor as this one since last season.12

All will become clear in the next 48 hours2

I didn’t give the position of the player. He did sign on Thursday late afternoon. Imagine it will be announced early this week.CharltontillidieCOYR said:

Any reason to have not announced it at the time? Or on any of the three days since? (Admittedly probably not working today granted.)Covered_End_Lad said:

Could Moses be one of the two players on trial last week?Exiled_Addick said:I could be wrong here, but I think his post was supposed to say “misses” not “moses”. As a fellow fat fingered non-proof reader I know an autocorrect error when I see one.2 -
Has Solomon-Otabor signed anywhere yet?0

Sorry old pal but what you are telling us does not appear to be very accurate.Addicks59 said:My post about piggott was not hard to understand was told we where interested this will make you laugh. He has interest from championship hardly sign for us.Reference Moses I said told we where interested in him but was wrong he has gone elsewhere
I am not having a dig and not discouraging you.
I'm simply summarising what I think you've told us.
We were signing Pigott but now apparently you were joking.
JFC was going to Brum, but now apparently someone was pranking you.
We were interested in Moses yet he had apparently signed for Spartak Moscow for £4.2M.
You say we signed Mullin on Saturday. Cawley says we aren't interested.
Tucker is being shown around Charlton, though Gills haven't agreed a fee and at one point you said he'd signed.
You implied Schwarz has gone (anybody else heard Ronnie has gone?)
You've said we weren't in for Boyle, then you said we were, then you said he's going to Oxford.
We were signing Freddie Ladapo.21 -
Premier League winner Victor Moses coming on trial to league 1 Charlton just before signing for a Russian team. Sure, and the other could have been Messi.robinofottershaw said:

We’ll sign players. I’m sure our wanted list had first, second and third choices and possibly complete reassessment of who is available in some cases. I doubt that’s particularly unusual. When our recruiting is complete I expect it will be composed of players in each of those categories. I’m pretty sure our first choice list might have contained a few moon shots and it was always unlikely we’d have much success. Complete faith in TS and Gallen getting us very competitive.1
