    Been trying to find out is he a right sided or left sided centre back
    Right footed: https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/sam-lavelle/profil/spieler/285846
    And right footed on FM too


    Didn't realise he was Scottish listening to the videos.

    Must be through a parent or grandparent, if Wiki is accurate he was born in Blackpool.

    Sam Lavelle is the brother of a friend of @Len\'s_little_girl. She told me in advance this transfer might happen but I had strict instructions to post nothing on Charlton Life.

    Decent signing I think who could get better.
    How could anyone have advance notice we left everything to the last minute..........:smile:
    According to the BBC website he signed at 11:30 pm. Earlier in the day or  a day or two earlier is technically 'in advance'  ;)

    She told me at 10:51am yesterday that it had fallen through but texted me at 6:12pm to say it was happening.
    Just to say that the transfer was resurrected by Thomas Sandgaard himself telephoning Sam Lavelle and speaking to him from what @Len\'s_little_girl has been told.

    Furthermore, Sam and Kirk are in apartments near the O2 and apparently get on well together. Pearce and Stockley have been the most welcoming of the existing playing staff apparently.

    With Inniss, Famewo and Lavelle, I wonder if we will play three at the back, we still have Pearce and Deji as backup

    We don’t have good enough attacking fullbacks and that requires us to sacrifice one of the midfielders or attackers.

    It's an option. But I don't believe it's one of Adkins' fall back choices.

    Especially without attacking fullback/wingbacks.

    He did play it last season but then he had Maatsen.

    Adkins played 3 at the back? I remember Bowyer doing so but not Adkins?

    See in the paper he was put on hold all day as we were trying to get another target in but it didn’t work out so we went back to him. 
    Ps sorry if already mentioned !

    Yeah, appears to be Jason Kerr who signed for Wigan.

    As club captain and first team captain respectively, you'd expect Pearce and Stockley to be at the forefront of his welcome and integration. I'd expect the rest of the squad to be welcoming too. They should be happy with the arrival of new players. Added competition for places of course but also greater chance of success and the rewards that come with that.

    I suspect we could make a back 3 work. Soare perhaps can play LWB and maybe Clare on the right - not a natural position for him but we know he has played full back. 

    I’d be surprised if it’s a formation we play by default at any time during the season, bu we might see it t as an option to change it during a game or to counteract a specific opponent.

    Somewhere between Phil Chapple and Matt Taylor ; not as good as the latter

    First impressions - he is a right footed Jason Pearce but not so physical

    Amazing to see you have such a knowledgeable opinion after just one game……not saying you aren’t entitled to but let’s see where things go with him.

    I thought he looked slow yesterday but that may be down to the cramp he was suffering . I think he’ll turn out to be a really good signing.

    I’d be thrilled to be wrong- hopefully he will develop culture and mobility as he plays more games

    No reason to think he can’t improve. He’s a 24 year old CB who’s spent most of his career in the division below.

    Agree. He looked a bit awkward yesterday, but let hope he turns out to be a good ‘un.

    He looked a bit off the pace yesterday although I'm hopeful he will turn out to be a decent player. Out of interest does anyone know if he has been playing regularly for Morecombe so far this season?

    A bit awkward ? If he improves and gets pace it will be a miracle. He has played 139 games plus 1 for us. He is in his prime. He has only ever played L2. 

    If cramp caused this Immobility and lack of pace then he had it from the start.

    I can think of a few CB who within 2 games or so looked superb and were still teenagers.

    Richard Rufus, Deji Eliwere,  Jonathon Fortune, Paul Went, Paul Elliot, Marvin Hinton, Eric Konsa, Joe Gomez.

    All at the age of 22-23 were far better. They were better when they were 18-20.
    Eric Konsa?

    I don’t remember him, was that his brother?

    I think he was around at the same time as Barry Lennon.

    Thought he was our best defender yesterday. Not saying much but it’s something.
