I will admit that we have moved too slowly it seems but the fact is there are still 2 weeks left to strengthen. Obviously earlier is better..no escaping that.
What I dont like is the shit TS seems to be getting...the guy is out there and excitable for sure but he wants what is best for this club and when was the last time we had that?
Dobson and Clare are good players...3 games dont automatically make them bad without redemption and now it seems there condemned.
Just put your adult pants on and support the team. I am confident it will get better but unfortunately there isnt any patience.
Ipswich threw money at players and it hasnt been the start they hoped...
Sean Clare was part of Burtons resurgence and whilst we dont know if that wanted him to stay, they spoke very highly of him.
They dont just turn into shit as soon as they put a Charlton top on.
Performing by Wimbledons standards shouldnt make someone a shoe in for us.
Charlton are a bigger club in general but any team is only as good as the one that plays on the day.0 -
Redmidland said:Oops sorry just found it on Twitter. I got it completely wrong, it is saying and I quote,
"In 2018/19 we won just 1 of our opening 6 games, and ended the season beating Sunderland at Wembley!"
Apologies for getting it sooo wrong! However it's something to bear in mind.2 -
Redmidland said:Fair enough @ForeverAddickted, like I said I can't remember and thought it strange, but someone posted it, but as I'm getting older I can't remember where I read it!!! ☹️

Only on Charltonlife, where players are written off or are club legends after 3 matches.25

I don't want to get into conspiracy theories, because Gunter is reasonably capable and perhaps we were looking at a loan similar to Maatsen to fill the left back position - but our lack of signing anyone to fill that position with Purrington injured is making me think Ged and his recruitment team are not really looking very hard.9 -

Brian Tevreden is a Dutch former professional footballer who now works as a chief executive at Belgian side K.S.V. Roeselare.
@sage are we just assuming this is aimed at Roddy senior or have their paths meet ?
Not sure the contexts or who it may be aimed at ?
Lots of guys who are CEO's or similar in clubs have sons in the academy, Peter Varney's son was and I don't mean Luke Varney.4 -

If we go 1 down at home to Wigan it’s gonna turn toxic pretty sharpish. Not a rumour, a fact.17

Rumours round up?
Rumours in
Henderson - training with us, was alleged to have signed about 2 weeks ago.
Blackett- Taylor - league 2 winger on trial.
Not exactly inspiring, Blackett-taylor hasn't exactly set league 2 "on fire", prefer a more "ready" player as back up over the youth as think they benefit more from a well measured introduction, but, if that's the bench warmer/ competition for DJ/Washington/Kirk then might as well leave that spot for Clayden and Ghandor and alternate them on the bench. Especially if there's a budget constraint and the need for more signings.
Henderson... Injuries are an issue but I guess you wouldn't expect him to play much, again, do you keep Harness on the bench instead and manage that money better.
Rumours out - like the ins we've not heard a peep about any of our players being sniffed at, in particular, Schwartz.
We're all expecting him to be off but there hasnt been a whisper of him going, either perm or loan, you'd imagine given his recent personal life changes and the fact he doesn't look fancied by Adkins, that his agent would be working his nuts off to get him out, but, nope. Nothing. Zippo.
Personally think he isn't leaving, a touch of Sandgaard influence perhaps.0 -

We are in desperate need of an attacking left footed LB who can cross the ball with his left foot and overlap on the left side( I think you have made your point Sam!)
Gunter bless him, is not that man as he is a RB. Nor is Jacob Roddy who may be a decent player in U18 but looked out of his depth on my one and only time I saw him play for 1st team ( Wimbledon)
A goal scoring midfielder.
A playmaker Midfielder with either Clare, Morgan or Gilbey doing the running as they have legs and can run and pass
A goal scoring striker no reason needed !
Goals get people off their seats not clean sheets which are important obviously but have no problem with 2-1 wins and being pro active in forward play. Seeing Gunter constantly passing back is so depressing.

With regards to "rumours out" its worth remembering that Adkins has said that he doesnt expect any to leave but still taking that with a pinch of salt myself - Does the Danish Transfer Window close around the same time as ours anyone know?1 -
charlton_hero said:Remember Thomas did say that the first team is pretty much there and it's all about adding depth now. I hope he's changed his mind after last night otherwise we're all going to be bitterly disappointed.
Please wise up. TS & NA have been very clear & I re-iterate what I have been saying for weeks. There wont be the "saviour" midfielders or strikers that will turn the team around. We will bring in a few loans & a few freebies, but they will be fillers & make-do's. They will probably replace the U23's that are currently on the bench but they are not going to be the "marquee" signings that everyone was hoping for back in June.6 -

Just see this on Wiki when trying to find out a bit more about Ged and tbh it did make me laugh...
A youth product of Southampton and Bradfield College, Roddy signed with Charlton Athletic on 5 July 2021.[2] He made his professional debut with Charlton in a 1–0 EFL Cup loss to Wimbledon on 10 August 2021.[3] Jacob is the son of Ged Roddy, and fluked his way into the Charlton squad due to his dads job at the club.

Think we have the answer to why we haven’t signed a left back yet? 😬10

I swear people on here were spunking all over him (Roddy) in the summer. Where have those people gone?I remember asking why do we think he is the messiah?
For clarity I do think Gallen is still heavily involved identifying players. Perhaps he just doesn’t get his way as much which is the problem0 -

Scott Twine was shoulders above Albie last night, crying out for a player like him but apparently we were not in for him. Whoever is in charge of recruitment at the moment is having a mare and I highly doubt it’s Gallen!!!2
