    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.

    Message from Leeds: 'He's w*nk.'
    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.
    Oh good, we are getting in a scapegoat :smiley:
    Hopefully a bit like Yann then.

    O'Kane I guess is seen as a replacement for JFC? Or Aribo...

    Or both

    "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).

    My friend is a big Leeds fan and was a bit scathing about O'Kane when I texted him just now. But then said he'll be fine at your level, cheeky sod.

    Totally fails the CL height test.

    Only 5 foot 8. Probably shorter than Chris Solly. Surprised Karl Robinson hasn't signed him yet.

    And, of course ....... underwhelmed. :smile:

    "Promotion. Taste the glory.". That's what Bowyers telling them.

    The way things are going , we could go into saturdays game with Keith Peacock as manager and Brian Cole at centre half

    I'd rather see Brian Cole in goal he's a big unit to get the ball past and I'll play CH on my Zimmer frame. :wink:

    You'd be surprised. You'd never keep up.

    If I was Bowyer I would be "selling myself". Ex-England, Leeds & Charlton.

    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.

    O'Kane would be one of the best midfielders in League One. Fact

    That is an old trick which we even suffered from in our Premiership days.

    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.
