I think Ipswich do have a good chance of being promoted. They have spent on seemingly good quality league one players and have a very decent manager. Those two things coming together often bring success but not guaranteed by any stretch. They have also decided on a policy of spending big in league one terms. They want success now and are banking on spending their way out of the division. No idea the wealth or ambitions of their new owners but I think it’s also fair to say Ipswich haven’t been through what Charlton have been through for the last ten years. The clubs both have new owners and are starting from very different bases. They are very likely to be top six but over and above that I wouldn’t want to bet big.2

Slightly off topic but hey, who would notice on this thread, showing on the OS that JFC will be on the mic with Terry tonight at Palarse, so there you go, be interesting to have another take on the commentary, now as you were everyone... 0

I really don't care about Ipswich, I want us to get promoted. I get the fact that TS has come in & possibly saved the club from extinction & we should all be grateful for that. I also get that it's his money that some of us are trying to spend but really we need to get out of this division asap & I don't see it happening this season taking the approach that we have. We should be ( & maybe were) challenging for the best players in this division not hunting around for bargains or relying on youngsters who aren't ready for league 1 football. Again I appreciate that it's his money but getting to the championship is imperative & we can take stock when we get there & build steadily. All we seem to be doing at the moment is treading water & we'll probably be having the same conversation next close season.stoneroses19 said:
I may be in the minority, but I’m glad Sandgaard hasn’t spent “a few million” on players this summer. Yes, it would have been exciting to have some big names come in, but it’s not financially viable to be spending that kind of cash in this league. I feel more positive that Sandgaard is looking at the long game and ensuring we still exist and in a position to improve/grow in the years to come.Davo53 said:Hello shootershillguru ,l agree that was a good post if fans have the same patience as yourself.If ts and na came out and said that at the end of last season,we’re looking to bring in a few youngsters and a few players on frees the expectation of a lot of fans wouldn’t be so high.

Totally agree. Sandgaard isn't throwing money about and I've seen a few idiots on twitter comparing him to RD . The obvious difference is that the former is showing he cares and putting a lot of time, effort and money into sorting the club out off the pitch.ShootersHillGuru said:We’re an established league one club and we’re having established league one problems. Heart has been ripped out of Charlton systematically for best part of a decade. Even the most enthusiastic and richest of owners couldn’t fix that overnight. Miraculously and thankfully our wonderful academy has remained able to produce talent. Mr. Sandgaard has ambitions but a lot of groundwork needs doing before we are again a well run club. I think he’s getting there but it’s not cheap and he’s not fantastically wealthy by football standards. We all want instant success and gratification but realistically it’s going to take a few years. No doubt we’ll be competitive but no more than probably eight or nine other clubs. Playoffs have to be our target and anything else an unbelievable bonus. I think we’ll be back in the Championship but we might not get there quite as quickly as we all hope and want. At this point CAFC are building for the future. We need to recognise that. Our time will come again I have no doubt.
I hope most fans see what you see and appreciate this will take time. Always going to be a few who don't, and one criticism is that Sandgaard and to a lesser extent Adkins have increased expectation with their comments. In hindsight, this could definitely have been handled better, I'm sure the boss will learn from it.
I would have bought one anyway.
Do you refer to anyone with whom you disagrees as an idiot ? It seems so because you called people who compare TS to RD as such.
From one point of view this is possible. From another they could have a point. It doesn’t mean that they are all pro RD though. Just that they disagree with you.
if someone is called an idiot purely for having a differing opinion, then valid point, that’s wrong.I take it that the poster is guilty of the first example and not the second.8 -

We all want to get promoted, there’s different ways of doing that in the lower leagues. Throwing money at a problem doesn’t always help, proven by some of the clubs who have tired and remain in League 1. Building a strong squad which actually works together is key, which I presume is what Gallen and co are working on. Not just buying any player because they are deemed as one of the best in this league.charltonbob said:

Of course, we need some more signings, but there’s still time before transfer and loan windows close.3 -
I don't get that logic. Even if you're still being paid for July, surely you could be training with your new club already, or sign for a club, salary starting from the 1st AugustAddickted said:Nixon's latest tweet answers a lot of questions as to why things won't be moving very fast until next week.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2021–22_Accrington_Stanley_F.C._season#Transfers_in
Accrington have signed 10 players this month, so it hasn't stopped them signing players3 -
Stockley, Dobson, Clare, Famewo, Matthews, MacGillivray doesn’t look like bad business at all so far and with 4-5 to go (I suspect) think we will be fine. Perhaps 2 more perms and a few loans and we will be in the mix if we can improve upon our injury record of recent seasons. Teams have proven every season that a few marquee signings do not guarantee anything. Team morale, playing style, work ethic, fitness levels, management style etc etc all play their part in producing the right formula to get promoted and I continue to have faith that NA, JJ and JE will get the most out of whatever squad is assembled to have a really good crack at promotion. I cannot wait to get down the Valley for the first game. Long covid is still playing it’s course, so will be a bit gutted not to chant (as my throat is still pretty shredded), but can’t wait to hear the atmosphere and clap like crazy… COYR and BONS (Bring on next signing 😉)!18

My point is people are not necessarily idiots for doing such just because he disagrees. We can’t just declare everyone who disagrees with us an idiot without fully knowing the view point.
I don't do face book or twitter or alike so can't check. I am not a fan of either.
If you want to debate some of Sandgaard's decisions fine, there's probably legitimate criticism to be made (hyping things up and an apparent naivety about the sheer cost of transfer business for example.) But Duchatlet comparisons are not legitimate criticism.7 -

No, but TS and RD are like chalk and cheese. Sandgaard has bought the womens club, attended matches and shown a real enthusiasm for owning this football club. He's put people into place who know what they are doing. We might not have won the Champions League yet like some fans expect but at least the fella wants to be in charge.addick1956 said:

I don't do face book or twitter or alike so can't check. I am not a fan of either.I’m pretty sure the majority of posters on here would call people comparing a guy who saved our club, spending lots of money on legal costs and seems to be slowly rebuilding out dilapidated club the right way with a guy who put his mates daughter in charge, sacked a Charlton legend, sent over players good enough for welling United and appointed an 18 year old from Belgium as head scout as idiots.
why is that comparison being made, because TS isn’t spending millions during a window where the market is slow for lots of reason. I think the term idiots has been wisely used in this case.7 -
So you know nothing about what Gallen and the team are doing but feel entitled to accuse them of doing diddly squat. You know nothing about Vokes, apart from being "sound" and whether the club wanted him, but feel justified to say this is proof of a poor recruitment strategy.addick1956 said:
And meanwhile if true we sit around doing didly squat really. I don't buy thus 3 weeks left after the start of the season really. It is leaving things late. Incoming won't know the club, the training staff won't know the players etc.EpsomAddick said:
There are 10 days left to ko with registered of players available before the 7th. 10 days.
Those who keep saying g there is plenty of time are seeing it drift away with each post. Clubs like Wycombe in talks with sound players like Sam Volkes.
That says much about our recruitment.
I don't believe you are as stupid as your comments indicate, you've got nothing new to say and can only assume you must need the attention.

There really is plenty of time left though, especially for the Prem loans which will hopefully improve us massively.
Cullen signed for us on the 30th of August during our league 1 season
Bielik was on the 16th of August
I'm expecting similar.18
