    That's cute. A nice way to break up the otherwise monotonous announcements for signings.
    The strange thing had me expecting a Ghostbusters tribute announcement, gutted and also relieved it wasn't.

    Do we assume the signing is too late be added to tomorrow's squad?

    In any case, he's probably already missed the coach to Blackpool.

    He hasn’t signed mate, he’s just having a photo taken with the shirt.

    If it was literally done an hour ago, then yes. But it could have been sealed earlier today (or yesterday) and just not announced until now. I think the cutoff is noon the day before to register a player.

    I know this will probably jinx it, but if we keep hold of Konsa I think we'll have had a good window, excellent when you consider the circumstances we're in.
  • Kaikai deal done then. To late for tomorrows game i presume. Nevertheless two loan deals of real quality this week, well done KR and the backroom staff.

    Really getting excited about this team now. Karl was saying the only reason we have got these two signed up is due to them both having come through long injuries. So who knows how long before they are 'match fit'. If just one of them proves a success and scores goals I shall be well satisfied.

    Yeah, you're right - not even with Scarfy.

    Charlton official Twitter seems to think they're announcing Alexis Sanchez or similar. Unique.

    Whoever is responsible for our loan signings these last 2 windows is doing a great job

    Imagine what we could do with some investment

    Suddenly we've got the best attack in the league! Automatics not out of the equation! Nurse!

    This is all a prelude to Fosu being sold, isn't it

    It seems to me that Karl must have a good reputation in the game, at least amongst his peers. Mav, DaSilva, Kaikai, and Zyro all seem to be promising players for their clubs. For whatever his other shortcomings are, it seems to me that other managers look at him and think "he will improve my players, he plays/trains in a way that I think is applicable to the way we do."

    Great loan. Proven goal scorer at this level.

    I’m very surprised Robbo doesn’t get us more young Liverpool players what with his connections there

    Strange coincidence this.
    Meire leaves and we have our best transfer window for 4 years.

    I'd argue the summer we signed JBG, Igor, Buyens, Ben Haim, Bulot, etc. was better in terms of the quality of permanent signings (even though we left the squad short), but point still taken.

    Perhaps they prefer to keep their young players up north/in the area so that they're closer to the club, their mates, their family, etc.

    I was about the say the same thing. Looking at that clip I thought we were signing a star name, especially when they said.." he has played for...." I was not expecting

    Crawley

    Anyway - welcome Kaikai & hope your brief stay is successful.

    Can’t stand this trend for cringey videos announcing signings, especially for a loan signing from Palace. This is how you do it, picture of the lad holding up a shirt.

    Thank God for that!

    Fantastic signing and going to be very influential going forward, attacking wise for the rest of this season.

    Will Kaikai's signing mean that somebody like KAG may be going out on loan?

    Hopefully not.
    He has looked good recently

    All that for a loan signing, christ.

    Great addition to the squad. Welcome Sullay, you're at a proper club now.

    Can't answer that right now, will try and find out.

    Personally hope not as I think he still has a part to play this season, and we need as many players in the run in as we can. If we were to get in another striker, I can see him going out on loan, but for now, no I hope not.

    I believe this is more of a Holmes replacement, but someone who can play more centrally too. He has goals in him this boy.

    It seems that saving Ricky's wages has provided funding for 2 loan players, Zyro and Kaikai.

    We've replaced Ricky and brought in a striker.
