  • Lyle is a snake. End of 
  • Would think he goes back to Sunderland given he's well liked up there.

    Diving for a penalty?
  • One of my friends who coaches at Ipswich believes Defoe wants to be in or around London.

    What, apart from the only other clubs interested seem to be Oxford and Sunderland..looks like it could be on maybe with a short term contract till end of season and go from there.. ;)
  • Wonder if they’re thinking he could help Burstow and Kanu?

    Fiiiiiggghhhhtttt
    We should just sign them both along with Parker and Pardew. 
  • Chuks and Defoe up top I’ve no doubt will score goals in this shitty league.  I’ve a feeling there’s a certain commercial drive behind anyone pursuing Defoe however.  
  • Wouldnt have a problem with a player/coach role, even if the coaching one is with the U23 for the time being. Then if he trains with the first team and JJ thinks he can still do it, then put him in the matchday squad.
    so what does he do when premier league teams are sniffing around our youngsters? tell them to stay just like he didn't? advise them to sign a contract so the club can command a fee for him just like he didn't?  

    nah, i refer you all to my post earlier in the thread

    "defoe can get fucked"
  • I would get Defoe in if he wants a role in coaching. Jeees, the old boys on Sky Sports will all be ex or near Charlton...

    Defoe
    Keane
    Hasselbaink 

    We get too excited with a name at Charlton. Really wouldn't have learnt anything from Arter, Watson, Gunter etc.

    "Here's how to get your agent in touch with West Ham"  ;)
    Haha thought the same. Criminal this had no LOLs.

    He's still take a squad place though, and I don't think we can afford giving one to an occasional player

  • Defoe was on TalkSport this morning and I suspect that the theory he wants to be in or around London is plausible. 

    I thought when Simon Jordan mentioned it that it wasn't a random rumour just put out there. I see no harm in a short term contract which could develop into a coaching role.

    Sky reporting it makes it more legit. Initially I thought Defoe would choose Sunderland all day, but getting back to London might just give us an edge if we are serious in getting him in?

    FWIW i think he's got the ability to do a bit of damage in this league. He made 20 appearances for Rangers last season.
  • At least he knows where the net is

    But for how long? If he's looking to continue playing until the end of next season there could be some value. If it's just this season I don't see any point in signing him.

    Must be room for Dowie too?
  • If we do sign him can we continue to boo him please, worked wonders whenever he was at the valley previously. 
    Won't he then score an own goal?
  • I do love a good old booooooo! 

    Hope he signs soon.
