    At risk of repeating myself, he is not deadwood. I can't see how getting rid of him makes any sense.
    Correct. Our best CB and the only one confident playing out from the back. This is baffling and infuriating. 
    We need to bear in mind that sometimes players want to leave. Can you really blame them?
    People behaving as if we’ve shoved him out the door. 
  • Football wise it is totally bizarre.  I don't get it.  I doubt he was on big money, we wouldn't have signed him in the summer if he was.  The fee might be low 6 figures is irrelevant in the scheme of things.

    Unless there are "real life" issues we don't know about it I really can't square this circle in anyway.

    We have sold our start of season captain and vice captain in two days...
  • Dissapointed by this, but the fact O'Connell is willing to drop into non league tells you everything you need to know. $$$
    Not for long, they are a club on the up, carry on with sandgaard owning us & they'll overtake us in two seasons.

    Everyone slagging him off for moving for the $$$ why do you think he signed for us in the first place? 
    Bigger club than Rochdale in a division above and probably sold a load of bollocks about our aspirations for promotion. Plus a payrise

    Not sure what Swindon have got to do with it.  The only reason players care about promotion from League 1 is the championship pay day that follows.

    So for $$$ then  ;)
  • Has this officially been announced by either side yet? Maybe Hollywood may have jumped the gun for the deal was signed sealed and delivered?

    As I say this, Wrexham have just announced it!

    Obviously Holden has to spin it, but hasn’t Hector been sat on the sofa for six months? 

    Interested in what fee was agreed for O’Connell.
  • Fuming 
  • Holden mentioning the young players too makes me think Lavelle will leave.
  • Charlton Manager Dean Holden said: “When I walked into the club centre-half was an area I wanted to look at. We’ve been able to bring in some real quality and experience in the form of Michael Hector and I have also been really pleased at the emergence of Lucas Ness, as well as what I have seen from the other young defenders. 

    “Eoghan wants to be playing every week and the move provides him with a longer-term deal with great financial reward, as well as the regular football he craves. Given the lack of first team opportunities he was likely to get here, and the fee involved, it makes sense for us as a football club. He’s a really good character and a top professional and we wish him the best for the future.”

  • Good luck to him,joining a club with ambition and an owner who walks the walk and not talk the talk…how can we be envious of a non league team….rock bottom

    First time I’ve winced at his comments.
