  • I don't think we will get relegated but if we were to be the squad would be great for L1, even accepting we would lose players ... But that's all negative thinking that won't be necessary !! 🤞

  • • Luka Vuskovic
    • Jamie Donley
    • Will Lankshear
    • George Abbott
    • Yang Min-hyeok
    • Tyrese Hall
    • Alfie Devine
    • Dane Scarlett
    Dane Scarlett.  No idea who is or where he plays but a great name and the right colour!
  • Just goes to show how Football has progressed, and how fucked it is

    Did we ever really have to spend £10m in the Premier League, just to be able to finish at least 17th

    Whereas that's what we've clearly had to do this summer, but in the f**king Championship
    Inflation.

    And football inflation is way more than CPI or RPI.

    Not Abbott. We did not have much luck with Church, Kirk, or Bishop. Though Pope was OK.

    Not Tyrese Hall. Only one Tyrese at a time please.

    Vuskovic would be too much for Terry Smith. He still struggles with Taylor and Jones. 

    Don't want Donley. There would be constant bitch-fights with Knibbs to divide the dressing room.

    Put in a sneaky low bid to take the rest as a package deal.

    Scarlett would suit our club colours.

    Will Lankshear sounds like a refugee from Chaucer.
    Will Abbott’s worked out (assuming these current injuries clear up!), though Pawel Abbott not so much.

    I went and had a look at our squad from a couple years ago, and there are a horrendous number now in league 2 or non league. Just shows how far we've come, and how important that playoff win was for the direction of the club. The proof of the pudding will be in the eating etc but hopefully this window gives us plenty to enjoy gobbling up.
    Nothing to say that in 2 years time you could look at our current squad and see some of them plying their trade in League 2 or below. 

    Kelman has no pedigree in anything but League 1. Same with Apter and Olaofe. Then there are our Academy players such as TC and Anderson.

    As you say......the proof of the pudding is in the eating. I do hope I am eating my words along with a slice of humble pie in 2 years time...but I could also be right. 
    Shut up you melt 
    Twattish comment, Golfies comments could well turn out to be true. 

    As he says he hopes not but going on our past record with players it could easily happen 
    Twattish? Ouch that really hurts. Consider me told

    My issue isn't necessarily with his comments, more the know it all negativity. We've had an unbelievable window, arguably as good as it could have been, but he and a few others will still find a reason to be fucking negative, and deliver it all in a 'I know more than you' tone that really fucks me off. 

    He's a boring know it all who consistently brings negativity to a conversation and has hilariously been proved wrong on many occasions, sometimes almost instantly (Leaburn scoring twice immediately after he announced 'he's poor, won't score again this year' or something along those lines).

    His takes are shite, he's a boring negative melt and I'm going to continue to call him out for it. Even if I'm called Twatish.

    Wouldn't have it any other way mind


    This says more about you than it does Golfie to be honest.

    He might well be naturally more pessimistic than most, sometimes he is proven to be right, most of the time it's not, but I don't remember seeing him come on here to call out another poster in the tone that you have.

    He has said this has been a great window, he naturally wants us to do well, but he also naturally leans towards the side of caution and pessimism at times, and I think that is okay too. It brings balance and actual debate to the forum without being offensive.

    If his posts and the tone he uses 'really fucks you off', it's not difficult to just scroll passed them and don't read it. I do it with loads of posts most of the time, it's not worth getting hung up about it. 
    Thanks for the advice. I'll bear that in mind 
    Nah, I doubt you will.

    You're just the old schoolboy bully who thinks it's fun to throw their weight around & call people names.

    I'd be more scared/ concerned if you put forward a reasoned arguement. But you stick with posting "you melt" as then I know I've won.

    Barring Donley

    Can't see Vuskovic going below a promotion contender, we don't play with natural wingers so Yang wouldn't be an option , Lankshear and Scarlett we've got enough strikers already. 

    Maybe Alfie Devine? Was very highly rated at Wigan but has seemingly lost his way a bit. Would fit the bill as a CM option. 

    Not heard of Hall or Abbott
  • Spurs are an interesting one. Maybe they will remember how we treated Nile John. Was meant to be their starlet and didn’t get a look in for us

    Seemingly nothing on Fukuda - he gave an interview with Japanese media ahead of their next game on the 6th.

    For those of you who can't read Kanji unlike me he said "Fucking love the Addicks, seeing Graeme Murty marauding down the wing from fullback in 2008 made me the wing back I am today. Definitely gonna be signing today, just nipped back to tell the Mrs to get on finding a school place around South London cause rumours are they're like gold dust at the moment. COYR" I think that's what it said anyways 
    Did he mention anything about the York railway museum im worried about Preston swooping in
    No, but he did say his Mum was called Linda.

  • Any loans now must only really be viable if they are clear and definite improvements over what we already have and I don't really think that any of those seem to fit that - not that they are bad, but are they good enough to be replacing any of the players we already have? Probably not.

    The only possible exception is Donley but even then he would be competing with Carey and Knibbs mostly and I don't see Spurs being happy with that, they'll want him playing regularly.

    John has since reached the dizzy heights of the Portuguese 2nd tier.

    Very very nearly getting relegated from it, even
  • Coming in and playing well on loan for us as a young player over the last few years must have been a challenge, given how awful we’ve been.  And frankly it we look back at successful loans of any age over the last 30 years , the list is short -Bartlett, Costa, Dasilva, Cullen, Bielik, Gallagher .. there must be more- I guess you can include Heaney, Maatsen.  Not many of those were that young .  
  • I think fans will have to be patientl, NJ has assembled a squad that looks useful. How well they gel together, considering that some have not played in this league before.
    If NJ can get them all playing well together and they are good enough for this league, I still think we will have to wait until next season to get promoted to the Premier League 😉😁🫢
  • Has to be Tyrese Hall - he effing hates Millwall

    Devine, Vuskovic, Donley although I can’t see spurs loaning them to use as they may want them to play for a better team in a different system

    Yeah, I mean fancy having to suffer the beautiful and sunny Santa Maria da Feira, on the West Coast of Portugal when you could be plying your trade in rainy Nth London...terrible ain't it...🙄

  • Team gelling won't be a huge issue, half of them have played together before or played under Jones. 

    Knibbs knows Mannion and Jones from Cambridge

    Bell, Burke and Kaminski all know eachother, as well as Berry

    Apter and Carey have eachother

    Kelman has been in contact with Godden already about goalscoring

    Rankin-Costello and Olaofe are probably the "odd ones out" in that respect, but I have no doubt we as fans place an awful lot more emphasis on the "team bonding" than most clubs actually do. 

    I expect us to get off to a pretty good start actually, and use the positive momentum and positive crowds to our benefit

    JRS and Sessegnon did well. Arguably Famewo, Leko the first time, Liam Millar, Stockley's loan was good, Steer, Purrington, Mavididi, Amos, Rudd, Nathan Byrne was ok, Fanni, Buyens, Bulot, Coquelin, Obika, Cort, Johnnie Jackson wasn't a bad one, Burton, Alex Song, Carson. There's plenty of good in there, the problem is almost every season the good is surrounded by so much rubbish it negates the value. What's the point in bringing in future Barcelona midfielder Alex Song if he has to play alongside Amdy Faye? No point having Rod Fanni if you've also loaned in Simon Makienok and Yaya Sanogo

    Also, side note but I went through a few years of transfers to remember some of those loans and the main thing I took away from it was we signed Neil Etheridge three times
  • The owners have done their job in opening the purse strings.  It now comes down to Jones and the recruitment team to see how well they did in talent evaluation.  There is always going to be uncertainties when recruiting in a promotion year.  Jones has made some clear mistakes in recruiting the last couple years and also have made some shrewd signings.  You would figure that the same will be said about this years incoming class but let’s hope the sum of the positives outweigh the negatives. My biggest concern is at the forward position.  Historically there are a lot of examples of strikers scoring in League one and then struggling in the championship.  It seems the step up at that position is higher than other positions so I have some questions on Kelman and Tanto. 
    You'll have the answers as the season progresses.

    They will be more experienced and perhaps become even better players than they are now? 
     
    That's the fun of football - it's unpredictable.

    JRC will have played with Bell and Kaminski and Blackburn. Agree about Olaofe but Kelman actually said he didn't know anyone in his behind the scenes signing video, sort of played down his comments from after the play off game. Don't have any concerns with either of them settling in though

    Cool but that doesn't matter in the context of spurs loaning us a player on the basis he would get some first team exposure, to be essentially left out in the cold. 

    What he has done since then is irrelevant, it is what happened when he was here 
  •  Brendan Wiredu … abused  by his own fans at home park on Saturday , Plymouth had to release a statement condemning the behaviour towards Brendon during the game ( his debut ) 
    You've been reading the Plymouth Evening Herald, Ronnie? 🤔

    100% what you’ve just said. What I’m trying to say is suppose is that all of our “exciting” signings were good in league one. Wright-Phillips was excellent in league one but couldn’t make the step up to offer what we needed in The Championship. That goes for TC, Anderson, Coventry, Edward’s and Ramsay. Even Jones. We don’t have a tried Championship squad. I’m hopeful because I trust NJ and PC but I’d be very surprised if we’re not in a season long relegation battle. This group would be an awesome league one squad but very average where we currently are.
    Its easy to say but I think we just got to be patient with the team bedding in and have faith in NJ's management and when the inevitable 4-0 drubbing against one of the front runners for promotion happens - be prepared to not fall apart as a fanbase.
    This seems like a fever dream but I recall our last year in the Championship, it was October and I was sitting on a beach in Barbados and I think . . . . we were 2nd in the table having beaten . . . Derby (?) and I genuinely believed in that moment that I'd be watching Charlton play Premier League football again the next year and then we obviously barely won a game after that so my point is, whether we have a great or a poor start we got to keep focused and positive for the team for the season and keep our fingers crossed. 

    Don't worry I'm not going Barbados this year. 

    going TO Barbados.🫤

    Based on pure hunch, I think he will be a firm fan favourite and score some goals along the way. Looking forward to watching the team take shape on the pitch. 

    Very industrious team with some quality. Not saying we will get promoted but think we can surprise some teams!
