    Quite like Smyth but Miller is a huge upgrade on him

    Got to be Bowyers fault if he hadn’t signed Smyth you wouldn’t have have cocked up a quote on him 😉.

    I would be surprised if Bogle agreed to leave for the sort of club which would want to sign him now! His agent can use the next few months to find as suitable a move for him as possible.
    Remember he has an option for a second year, if its the same as Amos's not playing won't necessarily stop him triggering it.  I think we might be paying for signing Omar for a while yet.

    With Smyth yet another winger/attacking player Bowyer has publicly said he "wanted for ages" then not had the first idea of what to do with him.  Played in 4 different positions in about 10 games.

    Either Bowyer is telling porkie pies when we sign these players or he thinks he can change them. 
    Thought like madison it’s the club who have the option rather than bogle? 
    "Charlton Athletic have completed the signing of proven goalscorer Omar Bogle on a one-year deal, with the option of a second year." 

    "Charlton have completed the signing of attacking midfielder Marcus Maddison on a one-year deal with the option of a second."

    They are both from the official site and Gallen said this 

    “But with some it is one year because it is all they want. Other times I’m thinking that’s all I want to commit to here because there is risk factor with certain players. You try and find a middle ground. I’m glad I’ve put options in some players’ contracts.

    A good example is someone like Ben Watson. He’s a great player and a great lad. He wanted a two-year contract, of course he did, he wanted security. But I’ve got to protect the football club and think ‘in a year’s time you’re 36’. So he will basically get another year if he plays a certain amount of games. And if he does play the games then he fully deserves it."

    It's not really clear what the trigger is, or by whom, but I would assume that neither would leave now for anything less than 18 months on their current wage, what ever that is.

    Obviously!! Bowyer needs to give the admins some public criticism, that'll fix it ;)

    Morgan can probably do a better job at RWB than Smyth did. Shame to lose him as an attacking option though.

  • We play them on the 1st May...

    Not sure about the video clip attached to the Tweet, which just seems to flicker annoyingly!

    Would guess its all about releasing a loan place so someone else that Gallen/Bowyer fancy more can be accommodated...

    I thought Bowyer said QPR recalled him.

    I presume they recalled him and sent him to Accrington because we said he was unlikely to play many games.

    Fair enough and not with a view to a permanent move in due course then as they’ve had him on loan before.

    He gave us maximum effort when he was playing for us and he made a contribution but I think we can do better. Smyth probably feels the same moving to Accrington Stanley and he may have the last laugh.

    Watch him smash up the league now, scoring them lots of goals as they grab 2nd automatic spot...😉

    Farewell, 'Little' Smyth and thanks for all your effort and sheer enthusiasm. 

    Even if it didn't quite work out for you here, you did your best.
    Good luck for the future.

    Wow a clinical and swift re-loan from QPR. Im a bit concerned about our loan record of late. We have loaned youngsters without playing them and also other loanees have gathered some mid term injuries with us.

    The narrative of us simply improving any and every player is slightly changing. 
  • Liked the guy but the move makes sense for all parties.

    Only if we bring in another body to replace him. Bad move if we don't

    An honest footballer who was a trier but with Millar coming in, 4 bona fide strikers in Aneke, Schwartz, Washington and Stockley, plus Williams, there was no place for him.

    Thanks for the assist and goal.
