2022 January transfer window thread - Non Charlton, other transfers (D Day p52)

iaitch

The negotiations were a bit delicate and we didn't want to faucet.

so that's another potential signing down the plug hole 

cafc_harry

Cawley saying something should be imminent, assume that’s the Spurs loan mentioned the other day on here.

Sunderland sign centre back Danny Bathh on a permanent from Stoke

Was hoping we'd be in for him but then I saw he'd gotten a bit tubby

He's happy to be out of Stoke. He thinks his former teammates are a right shower

iaitch

Let's hope he can gel with his new team mates.

Saw him play the other day. He was a bloody shower.

Your post was too late. It (bath) bombed

I never thought it would sink to this level.

You’re having a bubble I’m not going to sink that low Cawley’s told us somethings imminent 😉.

I just hope we don’t get sold another duck

See some are still in a lather over lack of signings ...

Vague interest being shown in Nathan Blisset, son of loofah…

I see we’ve entered stage 3 of a Charlton transfer window (Impatience, denial, puns, anger, acceptance).

It’s all water off a ducks back.

Another transfer window goes down the plug hole.

He said this then posted the Charlie Kirk listening to loan offers article an hour later. Stand down troops. :-)

Patrick Roberts is in the process of having his loan at Troyes cancelled so he can join Sunderland.

I guess he threw his Troyes out of the pram

I hadn't realised that in the window Ipswich made permanent the signing of Christian Walton. A very good keeper at this level

Connor Wickham to MKD.

Not a typical MKD signing, but they are short with Max Watters being recalled by Cardiff

Man C paid Fulham a reported £12 MILLION for Roberts back in 2015 .. he played just once for Citteeehh .. a tiny drop in the ocean for the billionaires it seems

he is 28 years old .. been around so long I thought he was nearer 38

Lucas Akins has moved from Burton to Mansfield (not a long journey lol) .. I've seen him play a couple of times and was impressed .. this is a take out from wiki about his versatility .. dare I say we could do with an all round player of his ability even one aged early 30s

Style of play[edit]

Akins began his career playing as a striker, before being deployed as a winger.[38][82] He is right-footed, but also comfortable using his left foot.[38][82] Akins states his favoured position is as a forward.[82] During his time at Burton Albion, he has been utilised in every outfield position, with his versatility being highlighted as a strength.[38][82] During the 2017–18 season, Akins was predominantly used as a right wing-back, with his work ethic being praised in one of the most physically demanding positions in football.[38][82] He stated he enjoyed playing there as he would find space when attacking against wingers who did not fulfil their defensive duties.[82]

Georgie Kelly leading scorer in the League of Ireland is up for grabs if we can outbid Plymouth who are leading the charge for him at present.

We never seem to be in for these types of names the non league or Irish prospects. I wonder why? Scouting network maybe?

I can’t think of one since Aribo and trying to Sorba Thomas

There's several from non-league in the first team and u23 squads.

Josh Davison - Enfield
Mason Burstow - Maidstone
Nathan Harness - Dunstable Town
Charles Clayden - Leyton Orient
Lucas Ness - Met Police
Hady Ghandour - Tooting & Mitcham

Weren't areas like scouting and the medical department really cut back in the last few year of RDs ownership? It'll take time to rebuild the scouting network and get closer to what's going on in leagues further afield.
