    What’s the point of signing players on July 1? We have to pay salary for July and August. Much better to sign them on the last day of the window.
    Is this a wind-up 
    Do you even need to ask?

    That's a true number 1 keeper. No doubts there. He goes straight in.

    Wonder what it means for Mannion / Ash? Do we have 3 keepers in the champ?
    I think AMB is out the door tbh, which i think is unfair on him but also the right thing to do from both sides. expect a decent fee + % of next fee as part of the deal
    Would it not be better financially to sell AMB (not that we'd get much for him) regardless, compared to Mannion, even if we wanted to do that sort of deal, because of FFP / PSR whatever you want to call it

    Its why Chelsea sold Gallagher to Atletico Madrid wasn't it, because oddly you get more pulling power with Financial Rules, by selling your own Academy kids - Again it was part of that merry-go-round that you saw in the Premier League with Chelsea, Everton, Aston Villa and Newcastle selling their academy players to each other to get around the financial constraints.

    Anyone thinking that if we sign this Luton keeper then we wouldn’t need either AMB or Mannion, or that they wouldn’t be getting much game time is delusional. 3 keepers competing for game time is a minimum, not a luxury. AMB and Mannion will benefit from the extra competition from a more experienced keeper and inevitable injuries, more bookings leading to suspensions and tougher opponents this coming season will mean they’ll all frequently get game time to grab the starting place at some time or other and the opportunity to try and hold on to it for a while.
    You mean like third keeper Tommy Reid who made 0 appearances last season?

    We've still got Maclorg the lad we signed last summer (?) from Rochdale, who has also been on the bench...

    🚨 Charlton Athletic have agreed a deal to sign Luton Town goalkeeper Thomas Kaminski.

    🚨 Kaminski, 32, has spent the last two seasons at Kenilworth Road, suffering back-to-back relegations from the Premier League down to League One.

    🚨 The Belgian will move to the Championship side for an undisclosed fee, and personal terms between the club and the player have been agreed.

    Promotion confirmed by April 2026

    AMB will definitely be off, would assume we would aim for a sale. Think injuries massively hampered his development and it is unlikely he'll be good enough to play in the Champ. Will get a good move to a high end L2/lower-mid L1 side

    He was very popular at Ross County - could be a possibility.
    I'd be happy if both Mannion and Maynard-Brewer were to go, no point in paying a bigish salary for one who might play 2 or 3 games a season, if that .. Tommy Reid seems well thought of, he'll do as a stand by

    AMB had more than enough opportunities to claim the number one spot. It’ll be best for him and us if he leaves permanently. I think he’ll be a good keeper but needs a sustained period in League One or up in Scotland.

    Keeping cards close to chest but expect some news today about incomings (and possibly an outgoing or two), if not today certainly over the next few days/week(s)
    So you think we might do some transfer business during the transfer window?  
    I would say its almost a certainty, though nothing is ever guaranteed  
    Death and taxes are.

    Was a really weird season for our Goalkeepers last year, both Mannion and Maynard-Brewer did good jobs when called upon, and they each only really got back into the starting eleven when the other got injured.

    Apart from the Burton game at the end of the season where Mannion got rested.

    Wonder if Mannion would have eventually returned to the eleven anyway, as he was benched for twelve matches when he came back from injury.

    Anybody know any examples of players who transferred early in a window who later think ‘bollocks, I should’ve waited ‘till the last minute’?
    How would anyone know ?
    It might have come up in an interview.

    We need someone with more experience than Reid as back up. Fine as third choice again.

    Mannion was solid. We’ve not had a good run with keepers recently. Hopefully Kaminski puts an end to that.

    always assuming that the Kaminski deal is a certainty of course

    Three reliable keepers are required - who goes on the bench if one of the first two choices is injured?

    I would be happy with Kaminski/AMB/WM or Kaminski/AMB or WM/Reid.

    After Ronnie's extra week holiday statement, I was going to make a joke about Charlton being the first football team to allow their players to work from home.

    Then I realised in previous seasons it has practically felt like that anyway. 

    (I still think I made the joke)

    Interestingly, Arif Can Yıldız, a sports editor at Ajansspor, says that Kaminski dodged Antalyaspor due to management uncertainties.... has he ever heard of Charlton Athletic?

    The local corner shop must have made a packet, or a mint!
    it was lucky we were under a transfer embargo and had blown any budget on range rovers coz if you fuelled yourself with that junk for 24 hours you'd be incapable of thinking straight - will abbott wouldn't have been impressed

    he did claim the number 1 spot from Mannion if you remember last season, then pulled his groin and came off at half time, can't remember what game. After that Mannion came back in and did nothing wrong, so kept the jersey.
