If you think Eaves is a Donkey you couldn't have been at the valley last season when he was exceptional in their 1-0 victory.cafcsinger said:Eaves is a donkey, however still surprised by this.

seems like he's our striker to replace Grant with Bowyer saying he'll play alongside Taylor.
apart from Gilligham the only club he's played more than a handful of games is the Slovenian giants Domzale. probably as well know to you as Josh Parker is.0 -
Let’s hope it’s a case of ‘he used to be shite, but now he’s alright’. That might satisfy everyone!Clem_Snide said:We've knocked it out of the park with this one.

Could just be seen as a short term option maybe good enough to help us get out of this league but not good enough for The Championship. If we get promoted why would we want him for any longer than the end of the season? And if we don't go up he could be offered a new deal anyway.Airman Brown said:
Yes - my point is why? In Williams’ case it’s affordability in L1, which I get, but as this bloke has come from Gillingham he can’t be that expensive.Cafc43v3r said:
We have given him a six month deal haven't we?Airman Brown said:No view on this but presumably we haven’t given him a six month deal because we can’t afford his wages.

Wasn’t a few people in here saying which should sign him last season when he had a purple patch for gills?1

Never heard of him, but best of luck Josh.0

If we signed him on a 2 and half year contract we could be stuck with him in the championship? Doesn't look like he has been signed with the potential to step up a level.Airman Brown said:

what does he mean by "especially to Charlton?"Callumcafc said:
anyway apart from that this tweet lifts my spirits a tad over this signing.1 -
exactly, so we rate him so highly we only sign him until the end of the season.cafcdave123 said:
im assuming he only had 6 months left on his gills contract and they needed rid to free up wages for Holmes.Rob7Lee said:........a six month contract. Is Roly winding us up at the end of the season?
no point us signing him on loan as we'd be using up a loan spot and only giving him six months means we haven't committed to anything0 - Sponsored links:

Josh Parker is a journeyman footballer who may be a decent player to have in the 18 but replacement for 14 goal Grant, hardly.
Still beggers can't be choosers and he will be the first name on the team sheet this Saturday and next.
Had a torrid time in Serbia but had done ok at Gillingham.0 -
Or that we’re not actually convinced he’s any good but were desperate to get anyone in.MartinCAFC said:

At least he looks mobile. Six month contract tells me all I need to know about him really.2

I suppose they're surprised he's gone from one end of the table to the otherKarim_myBagheri said:

Antigua international, so another callup?0
-
Free, versatile, known to Gallen, based on the southeast, won’t affect our limit of loan players. On the face of it a tidy enough signing and probably a very solid one if they can squeeze an extra loan in like, say, Eisa.11
-
I think I'd rather make do with Hackett- Fairchild.
Gillingham reject.1 -
Reminds me of Dany N'guessan in our promotion season8
-
Give the guy a chance. Gallen and bowyer have done enough for me to trust them on this.6

We've only signed him to add to our stock of international players ...... we might need to get a game called off when Taylor is next suspended.WestStandNeil said:
Charlton Athletic are delighted to confirm the arrival of Antigua and Barbuda international Josh Parker on a permanent deal from Gillingham.

But surely he has not been brought in to replace Grant?0

Welcome to the club josh, hope it works out...2

how about we give him a chance before we start slagging him off ?10
-
Don’t really know anything about him but logic tells me that Bowyer/ Gallen rate him / have chose him over Ricky Holmes.
Would those unhappy have been happier if we had announced Holmes?0 -
Didn't he have a trial with us before joining Gillingham?0
-
We can’t have it all ways
We want the Belgian to leave
We want the Belgian to spend money
Ain’t gonna happen is it really3 -
