Or Rudd met Meire and then changed his mind.Henry Irving said:I wonder if once Norwich saw we had no keeper they realised we were desperate and put up the loan fee and/or percentage of wages they wanted us to pay hence the unexpected delay.

I was thinking the same with Simon Moore as well.Henry Irving said:I wonder if once Norwich saw we had no keeper they realised we were desperate and put up the loan fee and/or percentage of wages they wanted us to pay hence the unexpected delay.
So you have no goalkeepers and the season starts next week.
The price has just doubled.7 -

Charlton Athletic FC @CAFCofficial 35s35 seconds ago
Russell Slade and the first-team squad will meet and greet fans in the North Stand lounge from around 5.30pm
Why not get some new signings done and then do this sort of event?

this is dull, so I did this
To the tune of only fools and horses closing theme:
We need a right back left back centre back a keeper
Johnson to be sold off, bring in a competent sweeper
Left mid right mid centre mid a playmaker
And probably another one when they sell off Ezri Konsa
To QPR in Shepherds Bush Bush Bush Bush Bush Bush
No centre back, No Ahmed Kashi
No Left back, no creativity
Want lookman, No problem
We will cut prices at a strooooke!!

Could have got Forde on Loan from Millwall.
David Forde has left Millwall to join Portsmouth on a season-long loan.1 -
v good keeper0

Who was replaced in the line up by Jordan Archer last season... Makes me think he's on the way out so not really what we need1

If there is nobody else in for tomorrow's game then I almost wonder if there is something sinister going on here. It's so ridiculous -y no goalkeeper, u21s all over the squad, a past it Jacko and Crofts in the midfield.
By not doing anything about it are they just trying to get one over on the fans? Stripping assets before selling? Cashing in with no care for how we do this year?
Meire has been silent as well.4 -
Not anymore.golfaddick said:v good keeper
Pre-Season friendly vs Bromley he was ironically cheered off the pitch and booed throughout. Seen at Millwall as one that's hung on for a final pay check but should have left 2 seasons ago.3 -
this sort of event has been crowbarred in precisely cos they haven't/can't/won't get any signings done.ForeverAddickted said:Charlton Athletic FC @CAFCofficial 35s35 seconds ago

Latrien or Cojones has twigged that there is absolutely nothing left to spin up in any sort of positive way so they've ordered the players out as canon fodder in the hope that the smiles on the faces of a few (too young to appreciate the toxic pantomime) starstruck kids will appease the baying rabble.
Smells like a massive own goal to me. Wheeling out the players around 5:30 i.e. 45 minutes after the game finished, risks there being about a dozen hardy souls lingering. The attendance at the match will be piss poor anyway.
It's not written very well but do I understand correctly "supporters need to purchase tickets to the game and show these in order to collect a wristband to access the day’s activities..." (plus the £1 'donation') means that the Family Fun Day ain't free to attend? Even Johnnie Jackson's talent for diplomacy is gonna be overstretched by this...
I'll read the official and eye-witness reports with interest, masochist that I am.
Who said "heaven knows I'm miserable now?"

I agree, don't think Forde is the answer. There is obviously a major problem going on here. Not offering enough wages, not subsidising enough of the wages, players themselves not interest, whatever but it's farcical, it really is.4

I really think that RD is stripping out all of the players with any value. Why would he do this? He is not spending a penny on transfer fees on any Incomings. I can only find one logical reason for this and that he is thinking of selling the Club. Perhaps Rio Ferdinand is right.4

To be honest i prefer it when she is quiet because then you don't have to listen to her rubbish. I doubt she will do a speech on the pitch this season at the first home game.DamoNorthStand said:If there is nobody else in for tomorrow's game then I almost wonder if there is something sinister going on here.

He's paid for Holmes and Ajose. So, as much as i can't stand the man, he has spent something..... Nowhere near enough by any means (and i feel dirty defending him there), but he has spent.dickplumb said:I really think that RD is stripping out all of the players with any value.

Was down at The Valley picking up friendly tickets for tomorrow and can confirm absolutely sod all was happening, apart from a few youth hanging out by the badge on the back of the North Stand, catching Pokémon3

Thinking about it, they could have been our new signings5

Maybe those signings are a percentage up front, plus the remainder in annual instalments over the length of contract?Madz said:

It's a very common way of paying transfer fees.
Should Roland Rat sell the club, then his current financial investment in transfers is minimal - and the next owners pick up the tab for the rest as instalments fall due.

Almost as if it were a last minute decision.2 -
I thought he was off to East Anglia after his holiday in Capri. His girlfriend is very attractive, a lot blokes say "Cor, Tina is beautiful"; other blokes say she looks like an escort.Dansk_Red said:Could have got Forde on Loan from Millwall.
David Forde has left Millwall to join Portsmouth on a season-long loan.
If he could focus and trimmed his coarse hair, he would be popular. As the girls say in Thailand "Sawadee Ka".1 -
Ive had a crazy day workwise and not normally in the know, someone at works son was interviewing Slade today, i asked about players and they said they overheard him on the phone he was looking to get 6 players in, didnt say by when or anything else im afraid.... but thought i would share2
