    Maybe they are waiting on another signing to announce it as a double whammy!
    Charlton would like to wish Miles Leaburn all the best with his new venture at Crystal Palace

    Took my eldest down to the valley today to look at the kit (and get him out the house due to teacher strikes).  Asked about but there’s no sign of Alfie May photos etc.  This was about an hour ago.

    It turns out it’s gonna be a 63,700,000 seconds deal, with a 31,540,000 seconds option.
    It only takes a second to score a goal.

    I would imagine training first at Sparrows and then photos this afternoon with an announcement later around 5pm

    age 30, one  season in the EFL after a long career mostly in non league .. IF he joins us, I pray he's not an Ajose or a Stockton flash in the pan type .. however, I have faith in Holden, and if he wants him, so be it

    He’s been in the EFL for the last 7 years.

    I was responding to the days one. I didn't see Seth's post as was distracted by work so late post. I apologise profusely...

    What? He's been in the EFL since 2016.

    He's scored 43 goals for Cheltenham across 2 consecutive seasons in League One

    He joined Doncaster in 2017 and was a highly rated part of Doncaster's promotion attempt in 2018/19 in League One.

    One EFL season? Keep up, Lincs. :)

    Good.

    Having delivered for the past 2 seasons, he comes with a track record at this level and on paper looks like a sensible acquisition 

    In this instance it’s acceptable to use that phrase I hate ‘happy with that’

    OK, my error, however he wasn't a great success at Doncaster, one goal around every nine games, only at Cheltenham in the EFL has he 'come alive'

  • Gotta be pleased with that. Just hope we don't leave ourselves short in other areas.

    The reaction from Cheltenham fans.

    Every comment is positive, literally not seen one saying he’s not all that.  There’s probably about 20/30% saying things like “the best we ever had” and “the GOAT”.  

    If this signing doesn’t excite I don’t know what will.

    I hope this is joined-up-thinking recruitment and he's been signed to play a particular role in a system. 

    I also hope he's got something to offer outside of the box.

    But can't argue with signing a goalscorer for a fee.

    He played more out wide at Donny

    ...and the No 10 shirt is free

    Welcome Alfie, let's hope you are more Super Clive than Nicky Adjose

    Just on the minority who are uncertain.  The last two seasons he’s been fantastic so that is all that matters.  If he’d only had two good seasons 5/6 years ago I’d understand.  Different players peak at different times.
