Charlton Athletic manager Lee Bowyer is interested in signing Leeds United midfielder Eunan O’Kane with the Republic of Ireland midfielder looking for a way out of Elland Road. Bowyer, the former Leeds star, is one of a number of managers who want to take O’Kane and end his two-year stay with United before this month’s transfer deadlines pass.
That would be because of his sending off at Ipswich and the errors he made against Sheffield United that led to two goals, since then a lot of Leeds fans have turned on him.
How does Bowyer sell the club to a half-decent player though?
"Have you ever fancied working in a lunatic asylum?"
Easy. Get permission to speak to the player and ask him if he a) wants first team football, b) wants his game improved by two fellow centre mid coaches in Bowyer and Jackson and c) wants to be the next Irish cult hero at the valley following a long list of other Irish midfielders who built great relationships with the CAFC fans e.g. Kinsella, Matt Holland & Andy Reid etc.
Players will know the club is up for sale and that everything is not amazing today but Bowyer has to sell the future to them i.e. the chance for them to be part of a 'new era' (that he is building).

"Promotion. Taste the glory.". That's what Bowyers telling them.
Martin gone. Henderson training at the club. Not sure if this is old news. Apologies if so.
Stephen Henderson?
Jordan
Got potential. Has to prove himself first though.
Clearly Ricky as he is Australian

If it is it's got JJ's prints all over it
Would love to see Henderson back, can only think he is even contemplating it (if the rumour is true) because he has been told that a regime change is imminent, can’t see him coming back otherwise.

My thoughts as well especially after Fromage hung him out to dry after the 5-0 thrashing at Huddersfield which was followed by the 6-0 hammering four days later at Hull.

Only 5 foot 8. Probably shorter than Chris Solly. Surprised Karl Robinson hasn't signed him yet.
And, of course ....... underwhelmed.
