Football fans can be funny peeps at times. Every player that goes to a league rival we are glad we weren’t in for. Too expensive, no better than we have, not good enough.
Fraser, Piggott and now Eisa.
But then on the flip side we laud Davison, Dobson and Clare. Hell we have even had people predicting Clare will be player of the year. Based on what?! He hasn’t even pulled a Charlton shirt on yet.
I am still waiting for the signings that make the other fans in the divisions jealous and sit up and take notice. We should at the very least be doing that in league one.
I have always said Eisa wasn’t good enough and a poor signing along with Mullin. They are asking for silly money too!
Mullin was the one who was asking for silly money or his agent in wages our interest cooled. Sean clare was in our academy and we offered a better contract to stop him leaving at the time he was well thought of called this one on page 402 said he had signed.Gills have signed a new CB hopefully next one through the door TUCKER. Interest in a centre forward if we pull this one off I will be delighted will shut the moaners up.
Have to say I’m willing to see if Davison can be good for us, but most of the time I’ve seen him he’s been pretty average to poor. Runs around a lot but quality hasn’t quite been there.

We never had any interest in Mullin. Not sure where you are getting your info but it’s wrong.
@Covered_End_Lad If by 5pm on Monday, the signing isn't announced do you accept you should lose your 60 likes and counting ?
If it isn’t announced by 5pm on Monday I’ll let AFKA remove them. I did say I don’t know when it will be announced. If they aren’t planning to play him today as he only signed him yesterday then it may well be Monday before they announce it.

On page 402 you said "Clare has signed it's on Team Talk".
After there had been pages about it and Cawley had confirmed it.
Neither we, more any other "big" league 1 club were intrested at all in Mullin. The guy was on less than a grand a week. He wasn't asking for anything from us because we weren't offering him anything.

Was definitely not ready for Championship football but to be fair he gave West Broms Centre backs a torrid time.

He was 19 when last played for us in a complete car crash of a squad. He's still now only 21, not many strikers are the finished article by 24/25.
I'm willing, and quite looking forward to seeing if he can step up.
I would rather trust in Nige and Steve regarding Davison, they see him daily and clearly like what they see, we can only comment on the rather sparse appearances he has made, sure he will be fine and hopefully silence any doubters.

Good luck to the lad.
Even as a player to come on and relentlessly chase the ball for 20 mins if we are a goal up he could be useful. As others have said he was brilliant against West Brom, on his own up against two CBs who both played regularly in the Prem last season. I think he will be fine at this level and certainly do a job.

Good morning, fellow rumour-mongers. It's Saturday, the birds are singing, the rain is falling, we have a pre-season game at the new bonkers-name stadium. We go again with fresh rumours, fresh arguments. Keep smiling, stay positive, and let's see if we can make the most of the day. Keep smiling. Walking's brilliant.
Winger, London born, 6 ft 3 so passes ours and now Adkins height test, free agent with plenty of L1 experience, helped Hull win the league last season (but sent back or recalled in January). Still only 25.
Been mentioned plenty of times before, could see it happening.

I’m not so convinced - he didn’t stand out in either of his loan spells last season at a lower level, and one game a few years ago doesn’t mean much at all.
I can though see why it’s difficult to bring in cover for Stockley when the plan will be to start him as much as possible in the league.

Certainly a player I’d like to bring to the club and would be disappointed if Rotherham, for example, sign him and we don’t.

Sounds like he didn’t impress at Hull, but maybe he just needs the right club?
Both of these would be excellent additions , Crowley would give us that playmaker I think we're missing and Adelakun has been mentioned a few times on here.

Ideal time pre Reading, Charlton TV, and free for the day, so never a better audience opportunity for a "grand entrance"...

Top lad; I will add my like to your post !
He's still now only 21, not many strikers are the finished article by 24/25.

Hakeeb Adelakun ????
Bexley Boy/Colin Sam's/Addicks59 are equally bad
