    Do we have a youth player that plays LWB?

    I'm sure if we did and they thought he was good enough, he'd already be playing. Burstow is.

    Think the most likely player in the 23s to play that role , Sam Oguntayo is only just back from a fairly long injury layoff. 



  • Red Valiant wins the award for the first person to put a name to the rumour and Doucher wins the award for knowing who it was but keeping quiet 🏅🎖️
    Thankyou soapbox although just to clarify i didn't know who the player was but i knew about  a week ago that we were aiming to sign a left sided player and an attacking midfielder on loan this week and on tuesday i was told the left sided player was signing on wednesday. not that any of this really matters but does suggest we are highly likely to be signing an attacking midfielder particularly as i also know we went back in for a midfielder on Monday and i know who that player is

    Lets start the guessing games....has he started more than 5 league games in the past 5 years?

    Presumably Browne? 
  • Think it was against West Brom mate in a 2-2 draw.  Bonne got the goal against Sheffield Wed.
    Yes, that’s right.  It was the 2-2 at home 👍🏻

    no, but the player contacted on Monday isn't coming coz his club won't allow him to go out on loan which is a shame in my opinion

    Because Defoe could be blind folded and would still be the better player.
    Is Davison home grown???

    Davison had to be registered on the squad list if I remember correctly as he's now 22 - e.g. Jermaine Defoe would technically qualify as home grown as he came through an English Academy (regardless of whether its Charlton or West Ham)
  • I know for a fact that Defoe was speaking to another league 1 team this week - doesn't mean it will happen of course

    Sunderland are very keen.

    Unless Enfield Town is one of our feeder clubs

    Who was it then? If he’s not coming no point in not sharing 😉
  • This. Bowyer had Aribo, Grant, Doughty & Dijksteel during his management period. At some point all the penny pinching from Roland and ESI was going to catch up with us. You had hoped the likes of Dempsey and Vennings would be breaking into the first team, but they are not good enough. Unfortunately, we are in that transition period when we have a weak group of 19 to 22 year olds, but good 18s. I am certain if anyone from the 23s were good enough to be in the first team, they would be. 

    Only one who might play between now and May is Aaron Henry and hes only 18 i think.
    Neither Aribo nor Dijksteel are academy products, there were signed aged 18/19

    Neither are a lot of the current 19-21s.

    But then that's nothing new. Neither Paul Mortimer nor Paul Williams came through our youth system, we've always picked up good players either from non league or that have been released by other clubs

    The point is we haven't got any now, regardless of where they came from. 
  • So many saying “why bother” we have no chance of the playoffs…we are only 13 points off with 90 to play for…I’d say playoffs are unlikely BUT not over yet.  Go on a run of wins and a few above have injuries/lose key players and it is still possible ….

    That’s what I thought, I was pretty sure he wasn’t our academy👍

  • So we all knew Burstow before he made a first team appearance, we have now seen him play and score but plenty say he is not yet ready. Then instead of signing a 21 year old loan player who we may or may not sign permenently some say we should try our own youngsters at wing back but apart from Roddy seem to struggle to name one. That says to me that they won't be ready either.

    There is also a big difference between 10 minutes here and there and playing week in week out underpressure to get results. Maybe a different situation in 6 weeks time but now is not the time.

    Mason Burstow

    Slightly younger, but picked up from Maidstone

    Do all football fans do this, or is just Charlton fans.
  • Blimey, we’ve started doing medicals.
    I am busy googling 1 legged players.....

    Mathematically I agree with you, but does this team look like it can go on a run, even with 2-3 top quality additions? They don't have the grit and fortitude, most of them are brain-dead.

    I may be being dense, but how are there 90 points to play for? 60, surely?
  • Guessing that Browne is the one that fell through due to the medical...
