RUMOURs - Shiny and new - Spring/Summer 2014

I am sure in the absence of any rumours that Charlton supporters are allowed to remember the best period in Charlton's history, Silent Addick :-)

The main point is that Scott Parker leaving undermined a potential best finish in the modern era in the Premiership. I agree with Razil on that. Any opinion on that Henry ? (or you just wanted to be precise on the best league finish ?)

I wonder how many Addicks fans still around / reading CL watched a few games of that season ? It would be great to hear from them.

Charlton Athletic : History 1918 to 1945
Charlton Athletic Information

English Division One (old)

Best finish 1936 / 37

Season L# Pos P W D L F A W D L F A Pt ±

1938-1939 1 3 42 16 3 2 49 24 6 3 12 26 35 50
1937-1938 1 4 42 14 5 2 43 14 2 9 10 22 37 46
1936-1937 1 2 42 15 5 1 37 13 6 7 8 21 36 54

From 1936 to 1939, only 5 defeats, a truly remarkable record. This along with the two FA Cup finals immediately after the war only makes me think that we would have been a regular top four club if the war did not intervene...

Unfortunately it was just our away form that seemed to let us down even back then

Evina to Doncaster.

I thought he went to Crawley!

Donny offered him more money.

New striker is George Tucudean from SL according to Charlton News on twitter (6'1")

Re Tucadean..........People were getting excited over COG who had a similar goals to games ratio over his career and certainly had never played in the Europa League. And this guy is the same height as him. Good age, what's not to like? I don't hold not having heard of foreign signings against them. I am sure a standard liege dan wouldn't be wetting themselves over Chris O Grady either.

There also been rumours about player/players coming on loan from West Ham as part of the deal involving Poyet. David Sullivan has dismissed that rumour.

Getting the same responses as CharltonByBlood.. but imo everything is heading for George Tucudean but hard one to call

Thanks vff

Indeed Parker staying could have lead us to even greater heights - in europe and who knows what, not only did his refusal to play scupper that and in some ways could have been a turning point in our fortunes for the longer term and therefore possibly up there with the most significant moments in our history, but also arguably was the catalyst for us to plunge down through the leagues also just missing out on that enormous hike in premiership money.

So I wouldn't personally welcome him back mainly cos he refused to play for us..

As far as I know RD has not made his fortune selling jizz mags and the 15" black mambo with 5 speed settings.

Gold and Sullivan are well suited to that mob, utter cnuts. I'll vote RD even if he is an evil genius/mastermind criminal and lives in a lair built in a long extinct Caribbean volcano stroking a large fluffy pussy...

'jizz mags and the 15'' black mambo' - story of my life.

I'm guessing that's a copy of the Beano & a stick of liquorice ?

Remind me never to accept any of your Bertie Bassett's Allsorts Fanny!! ;-)

I look forward to Monsieur Wanqueurs arrival in SE7, we're bound to need a new coach in a month or two...
