Sure Jones will want leaders and good older pros, but we’re not short in that area with Campbell and Potts recently joining Docherty, Lloyd Jones, Gillesphey etc.Garrymanilow said:Scoham said:Don’t get what Hylton’s going to add, barely played for Northampton last season in this league and didn’t score many for them the season before in L2.

Seriously though, I suspect this is a player-coach role, and that he has to be registered as a player to, well, play. But I think it will be a heavier emphasis on coach. And if it's not, then I think the bossman is right and this will start to feel like jobs for the boys.

I have no idea how fit / how good Dan Potts is now days, and realistically, how much game time he will get.
What I do know in recent years, and for too many years, we’ve had Charlton players who have not been taking responsibility's on the pitch, it’s not been good enough by any means.
If Dan contributes, and makes us stronger as a team, and our defence, significantly better, then I’m all for it.1 -
If Hylton is announced as a Player/Coach, I’ll understand it0

Hylton I dont really expect to see unless its in the EFL Trophy.
I seriously doubt Hylton has/will been signed to start week in week out. Disclaimer, please do not quote this at 2:45pm today!!!!!!0 -

Christiano Ronaldo is 39, would you turn him down as well due to his age...it's just a number🙄0 -
Watched one of our pre-season friendlies and saw Hylton try to make a run. He has those old, wooden Ben Watson legs. The guy is past it. Don't get this signing at all.1

In pre season Hylton showed riot in an empty room qualities the tiny bit we saw of him.1

It’s almost as if some of you are half a step away from advocating for a Director of Football type role to oversee and veto the manager’s decisions in the transfer market?4

I like Nathan Jones a lot. God knows where we would have been without him last year.
But Hylton is not the answer.6 -

If Jones thinks it can work... can help... I mean its only going to be until January (for now), so wont eat into that window's budget.0

At this point it basically feels like Jones is trying to indoctrinate a fairly young squad into his way of thinking. Bring in a bunch of players who made their names by being absolutely freakishly obsessive about the way they play and prepare for games and convince the rest that they're the weird ones if they aren't doing it too. It's not a silly idea, if you've got a madman at the wheel he looks a lot less weird as long as the people sat behind him are cheering him on. You come in and see Jones being a maniac and then also see Berry, Potts and Hylton living just like him you're more likely to accept the status quo. It's exactly how cults work, and all those people seem fine..8

I wonder if there is resistance from elsewhere in the club?2 -
