Only Charlton, surely somebody has to answer to the f up
Yes Dobson why did he sign a contract when the club had made him offers .. why did he not wait till end of season before looking at his options he was very poorly advised and a hint of panic when he did not receive another single offer from anyone else ..
HOW DO YOU KNOW THIS?...just stop making it up as you go along for once...🤷♂️
Because he didn’t …….. source his dad who was telling everyone that in Bartrums he also told people that it was never about money just the length of contract that was on the table ….. he was offered 3 year deal with a one year option to move abroad
I was hoping the Dobson debacle had been left in the past. I can understand making one last ditch offer to see if he'd change his mind but I wouldn't want to spend a significant fee on bringing him back.

To be fair, we’ve just been told he didn’t want to go to Hungary at all so the fact he signed a pre contract could well imply he didn’t have other offers.
Every day I look on here to see if there is any news on 'incoming players'. Every day it's the same old conversation about either Dobson or May! Surely it's been done to death now....can we just see what the hell transpires with these two and just move on, please?

To be fair, Dobson has come up again as someone posted in the place that shall not be named that we have put an offer in for Dobson.
Other forum is saying we have made a bid for Dobson ... You can't write it I just can't believe it but if true that's an absolute disaster for the club
I would be so hacked off at this. Regardless of opinion on Dobson as a player what a waste of money it would be paying a fee for someone who was our player last year.

Apart from us if that is the case, so he just apparently jumps ship to a country he doesn't want to go to, taking his family and all with him...Mmmm, does that really make sense...🙄 I know he has to take it while he can and all that, but this seems a bit extreme imo
If there's a chance of bringing Dobson back at a reasonable fee we should absolutely jump at the chance. Sure it might look a bit embarrassing but nothing wrong with correcting a massive mistake.
He has been by far and away one of best players for the last few seasons, he is a leader, fans favourite and most of all is a known quantity. You know he will deliver consistent performances game after game.
We could quite easily spend the fee and wages we might spend on Dobbo on someone else who could turn out to be an absolute flop (As we have season after season). Is anyone convinced we are going to sign anyone better than Dobson this window? I'm certainly not.
I agree. Admitting to a mistake and correcting it would give me more confidence than pretending it was what they wanted all along, which smells like the spivs and their various successors.

Why do people at the club have this need to give you all this inside information when respected journalists either aren't told or have to agree not to disclose?
It's a great responsibility and I hope you appreciate the honour.
If you ever feel like we’ve done bad deals. Don’t forget we let Aneke leave on a free, for us to then pay money to sign him again 6 months later and for him to be injured ever since.
Paying a fee / penalty to have Dobbo with us next season is a must. Simple as that.
However, probably completely unlikely and no point talking about it 😂
IF, and I impress it’s a colossal if that anything with Dobson happens in my opinion, he does end up back with us next season, I would suggest that it would be quite the endorsement of Jones and the direction he feels the club is going.
For now though, I’ll stick to having made my piece with the fact he’s gone to Hungary.

Aneke was out of contract though.
At that time, we did offer him a new contract - but Aneke chose to sign for Birmingham City in a higher division instead.

I have been saying all along that I had a suspicion we’d be back in for Dobo. Don’t know the strength of it but it wouldn’t surprise me one little bit.🤞🤞🤞

All day long.
'Bringing back' Dobson or bringing in a new player the end result is still the same.
Offer 200k and see the Hungarians say yes very quickly,for them it is money for nothing.
You do not get rid of our best players, and ones that still want to play for us.

A situation that can be resolved very easily for all parties.

You young people crack me up.

Not sure if already posted?

Doesn't sound great.
