    I get the feeling this mob have less money than RD......or even the Aussies. Not a great start to piss off your main striker, manager & now the fans by inaction & misdirection. 
    This is why we can't have nice things....

    When was the last time we signed an experienced player from the 1st team of a club in the same divison as us, for a fee?

    There are probably loads I have forgotten but I can only think of a couple in Powell's team Wiggins and BWP.  Before that it may have been Eddie Youds!

    Even in the premier league we mainly bought players from the football league, abroad or players unwanted by bigger clubs.  I don't expect that to change any time soon.

    "The players we’re trying to get in now... there will be marquee signings, players we feel can strengthen the team."
    Think Southall said that not Bowyer

    3 players they have attempted to buy in the last week, also Boywer wanted a player yesterday who the Chairman will go and get. Doesn't sound like standing still here. In Bowyer/Gallen/Southall we trust!

    Wonder if its yesterdays player that forced them into action with the contract - Not even signed yet and they're already a potential club legend

    Come on, the only bloke from that film we would sign is Kevin O’Callaghan (for those of you who haven’t seen the film, he was ruled out of the game with a Broken Arm).

    In what way? What type of player is he, where does he play, strengths and weaknesses, what first team experience does he have?

    Doesn't make a difference now, but he is a winger, young, good with the ball at his feet and knows where the goal is. Used in the Europa a lot, I agree would have been a great signing... although we don't notoriously play wingers and he isn't a wing back (full back with a 3 man defence). Ironically enough I signed him on my fifa game for Charlton and play in a front 3 :D

    PS- I think he fails the height test

    It does make me laugh “Charlton can’t match Blackpool’s asking price” More like won’t match Blackpool’s asking price.
    Either way I’m quite pleased it looks like the deal is off. It also underlined that Southall and co won’t be held to ransom, just because other clubs (and Taylor) assume that Middle Eastern money gives them the right to be greedy. 
    Hopefully Blackpool will lose him for nothing in the summer - that will serve them right. 
    I bet the player ain't happy.
