There’s a striker in league 2 who finished with 19 goals. The names Bogle , Omar Bogle . I guess he’s at his level. Couldn’t have seen him hitting 19 in 5 years here.
Tbf they were generally tap ins and he still looked crap.
A friend of mine a Newport fan said he’s frustrating but does score. I said that’s an upgrade on frustrating who can’t score the Bogle at Charlton.
But large part of the EFL have been done already so won’t be that long
Well that's not true. Yes a little bit is done, which is CM and JR passing owners test, that is about it. The main money men would have to pass, and the structure of the deal, plus proof of funding would still need to be done. It will still take a good few weeks. They might already have everything to go to the EFL, but EFL can't action until SPA has been signed.
I've already questioned if he'd be a summer target myself, given we tried to get him in January.
Been a decent player at this level, ideally more of a backup winger
Which is exactly what we don't need. Signing players like that makes releasing the likes of Clare, Inniss etc a bit pointless.
We need a real injection of quality. If we signed him either CBT or Cambell would have to be first choice, if not both.
Can't comment on Edwards but agree we really need 1st 11 players who are better than Clare and Morgan etc or otherwise what was the point of getting rid of players who played plenty of games and helped Cafc to 10th place (better than bottom 6!)
Do we want to be contenders ?
The fan/critics do so we should target players that fit the template with fitness, character, hunger, and improvement plus playing for a London club they won't get homesick. You only needed to see social media to see that Marcus Madison was a lost soul and would never had passed the Curbs test. (How was Andy Todd a good character after beating up Phil Brown ? Dean Kiely agrees !)
Personally I want players who are capable of playing 100 minutes if need be and can play two games in a row ! Sorry Sess but if no operation your career will stagnate if knee not sorted. It's a 16 player game now but we really don't need too many players with a 60 minute battery like the popular Williams or CBT now who can be an x factor player.
We appear to be in the same loop with no clear strategy until TS goes or new owners or investment appears.
Is it really too much to ask as an ex Premier club to get players in that are capable of top 6 in the competitive but mediocre 3rd tier of the EFL ?
Coventry and Luton have managed to bounce back from below the gutter so why can't Cafc 😤
Harlee Dean released by Birmingham. A centre back partnership of him and hector next season would be a very good foundation if we could afford it. Went on loan to Sheffield Wednesday last season after falling out with Bowyer so could definitely be tempted to a L1 club with ambition.

Fits the criteria of someone we get linked to most transfer windows. Him and Hayden Mullins incoming

We were linked with him when Bowyer was in charge, I think.

Would be an excellent signing and has leadership qualities that will only help young centre backs like Ness and Mitchell.
Agree that him and Hector together would be great, but don’t want to push Ness down the pecking order either.
However, could see us going to a back 3 at times next season and a 3 of Ness, Hector and Dean is decent for this level.
Comments
agree though, he has looked good when I've seen him play (not against us)
Or are they waiting for reams to confirm the takeover is done first?
We have certainly been here before.
Of course you don't and of you did you would know that that isn't possible.
You can't just submit your own paper work "just in case". The club have to do it and they can't until a SPA has been signed.
Which funny enough is, normally, when you get the takeover agreed pending EFL approval announcement.
Not a very inspiring one though

Very average player that Charlton seem determined to sign every window.
