    We are after Nicky Ajose. Novak will choose us or Bolton. Was told Novak would score 20+ goals for us.?

    Nicky Ajose scored a hat full for Swindon. I would think there would be quite a few after him and would cost a lot. At least we are getting linked to a few good players.
    Being linked means nothing. It's all spin and lies 'till proved otherwise.
    Or am I being too harsh on the regime still?
    The regimes previous history has caused this negativity. At this stage of the close season I reckon it's agents trying to create interest in their clients

    Hope it's because Slade doesn't want him rather than we won't pay £500k.

    Could argue it's a lot to pay for a player relegated from League One. I think we signed Green after he was relegated with Dagenham, like Moncur he had a good goalscoring record but never made the step up to the Championship.

    Well the others have pretty much offered up £750k (inc. Addons) which is definitely a lot for a League Two player.

    Not wanting to be accused of being a regime apologist but the figures being spoken about for Moncur seem far too high to me, if he moves for that much we are better spending the money elsewhere.

    Agree. But £1 million was a lot to offer for a then Conference player, Jamie Vardy.

    Agreed... Fair enough there are British Players out there but dont want us paying over the odds for anyone

    Every player has to have their price limit

    Ajose and Novak would be very good together. Novak to hold the ball up and Ajose as the main goal threat.

    True but Vardy is a forward and therefore comes with a premium. We need a complete over haul including a few goal scorers, so we need to buy wisely (be a miracle with this lot holding the purse strings).

    How much did we waste on trying to sign Non-League players though?

    Trust is earned. It will need to be seen to be believed that the Duchatelet leopard has changed his spots.
    Sadly Monsieur Roland seems so utterly convinced of his own brilliance and the fans' collective stupidity that he probably genuinely does believe a few rumours that we (might) be possibly interested in the kind of players we have been needing since he took over would be enough to shut us all up.... but without actually signing them of course.

    Not a rumour .. just a thought ... to get back to re-signing ex CAFC players (f f s NOOOOOOO I hear .. sorry) .. what about Michael Smith .. well underused before and now a more mature & hardened lower league striker

    Seems to have failed to kick on since his early Swindon form.

    Been on loan to Barnsley and Portsmouth in the last year and didnt really done much at either

    Weren't we told similar by Simon Church's agent?

    I think his agents exact words were 'if you give him regular game time he will score 30 goals a season'!!!

    Earned his fee there!

    Barnsley are a Championship club now, surely they'd be more attractive to Moncur than us anyway

    Ooh yes, who could ever forget Stuart Fleetwood? What did we get out of him for a two-year contract? 10 minutes away at Hereford in the League Cup. (Oh, plus extra time). We lost, of course.

    Cant forget Dorian Smith and Luke Holden either.

    Thankfully Bradley Pritchard managed to restore some fan belief that we can find a Non-League player

    The clue is Slade saying he removed some names from the list and added one of two ..... Moncur seems to be one that was removed
    That statement was taken from his first interview when he was announced after the press conference.

    Not anywhere does it mention any connection to Moncur. The fact that we even made two bids for him shows they were interested, Roland just isn't prepared to pay what they want for him.

    I am confident the names they removed from the list, Moncur wasn't one of them.

    http://www.southlondonpress.co.uk/article.cfm?id=118371&headline=Charlton have improved bid for Colchester midfielder rejected&sectionIs=sport&searchyear=2016

    Our final bid for Moncur came two days after we confirmed Russell Slade...

    Surely we wouldnt have made that bid if Slade wasnt interested?
