Can now confirm it was Solomon otabor, been told it was a problem with the knee which he played on after a limited amount of rehab
Very interesting, he is the player I was told signed on Thursday. Would make sense why there has been a delay, potentially we are now renegotiating a lower deal off the back of the medical. I’ll try to find out more.
Suddenly everyone and their Auntie knows the wages clubs are offering ?
Do you know the signing on fee as well ?
I know certain wages down the football pyramid where a top striker can receive 25% of the overall wages for a squad. Surprised when I first heard this then it was repeated at another club. This is part time football where the star striker may be content to be part time as he has tried full time but at 30ish is happy to be a big fish in a small pool as able to continue with another job as most have two evening training sessions, Tuesday and Thursday plus midweek and Saturday games.
I made all my numbers up TBH. That’s what happens on here isn’t it? Just make any old bollocks up and post it. If you guess right you go on Dazzlers list and win nothing, and if you get it wrong, you go on dazzlers list and win nothing.
One thing I do know is that Colin’s numbers are definitely wrong.
I find it odd that 3 players that HAD been linked that Cawley said we are not interested in, haven't signed for anyone yet? Tucker, Mullins and Pigott? Did pigott come through our youth? Is he a Charlton fan?
Why luck? We all saw a team bereft of confidence last season, despite putting together a decent run. Bowyer blamed the players, yet it was his job to manage them. Some of those same players have gone up a level this summer.
Under Adkins, I've not seen any miracles yet, but he had time to assess his needs and this season he will give it a good crack. He has a good management record at this and championship level.
I think playoffs should be a bare minimum in the WORST case scenario. Ideally it should be autos, but so long as we go up, I don't care.
not charlton related but doesnt seem like we have any rumours ourselves...but wigan have reportedly offered Charlie Wyke £10k a week to join?! Outrageous amount for a league one player but shows how much Wigan are throwing at it this year
Seems a lot but if they offered him £10K a week for 2 years thats a 1 million pound investment. We paid c.£500K for Stockely and have given him a 3 year deal on c.6K a week which equals an investment of c.1.4m.
Plus we offered Graham 9k a week but he got over double that at Birmingham

That would be a shame, in my opinion.
Absolutely bang average League One winger, who’s now carrying a knee problem. I suppose there’s not much risk as he’s a free, but you’d hope he’s not the one we’re going to rely on week in week out.

I'm normally too busy laughing at your posts Ricky, but I meant Ronnie Moore and Covered end lad, who TBF may have a hot line to Agents, Players, accountants, club officials or just repeat what they hear on social media. That the beauty of the rumours page. Smoke and mirrors, big whoppers and folk craving to be the first to break a transfer.

God I’m being lumped in with Colin now, this is a new low for me

Pigott was allegedly a joke.
Tucker and Mullins the poster seems insistent on.
Blackpool through a link to Joe's brother has already stated that Joe and Cafc are history. Tucker and Mullins remain rumours with no real substance.
Why is it every player that signs for someone else, we’ve suddenly missed out on and it’s a disaster?😂, I think patience is the the word needed. Thomas hasn’t done anything wrong to make us mistrust his methods.He wants out of this shit league as much as us!!. Let’s keep the powder dry!!.

2 things - do you genuinely believe that we would offer a player 9k a week? And do you genuinely believe Graham is on 18k a week at Birmingham?
Leko is on a reported £7k a week and he signed from a (then) premier league club. No way has Graham has left a middle of the table league 1 club and got a deal that is 11k a week more than him. Also, Graham was on just over £2k a week at Gillingham - so he goes from £8k a month to £72k a month…. Ok.
Championship wages seem to have increased a lot in the last few years

Absolutely - but £18k for Jordan Graham is ridiculous

Just found this looking through the wigan forums so would back up whats happened

@dave_mehmet has a couple of floaters in his toilet - doesn’t stop him from going to work though.
Been informed by my pal that the team now will be travelling to the Celtic game Friday and not staying up there for a tour due to some covid issues, there won’t be any trialists and the squad is looking the same, was told a player failed a medical recently aswell
Ah, at least the game is going ahead now, as I heard at one point the tour and game was cancelled!

Spoke to his brother only a few days ago. He ain't coming to Charlton.

If anyone pays 10k a week for Wyke they should be questioning their recruitment policy. Wow.
Ok he's not exactly Lewandowski but is he that bad for a league one side trying to build a squad?

This thread would be worse off without you that's for sure.

Here's Rich's tweet which was very coy, didn't outright deny it just said we weren't close
He ain't coming to Charlton.
Dazzler does this make me in the know
15-16 season - 15 goals
16-17 - 25 goals
17-18 - 16 goals
Admittedly didn't play well for 2 years, but then got 31 goals last season and was their POTY.
Whilst i agree that 10k a week is ridiculous, he's not as bad as people might think.
