Ogilivie playing again for Gillingham tonight. Would love us to sign him and that’s even if Purrington was fit.2
-
Why we ain’t in for Ogilivie is beyond me! Won’t cost that much in wages, surely?Need a new LB more than anything now Purrington is injured. Adkins can’t be serious when he just said we have Matthews and Gunter who can play there and Jacob Roddy!!!3

He did and you can play a Gunter or Matthews or even a JFC there as a one off. You can't have Purrington who, to be fair, isn't probably good enough to be first choice anyway, as your only senior left back.stop_shouting said:
Left back is certainly on the improve, not depth, list.Apparently not… madness to me.1 -
Utter madness! He must be joking?Vfrf said:

From the match thread
Before anyone wets the bed Nigle isn't talking to us. He is talking to anyone that just added 100k to the loan fee for their left back or an agent representing an unemployed left back in the Gillingham area.Canny fucker is mister nice guy.22 -
I’m with you mate. Just highlighting that of the players available, he’s probably the one likely to play if he we don’t bring anyone in.Southbank said:
We have to hope Inniss doesn’t break down whilst he’s being managed during pre season, otherwise you’d be looking at a defence of Matthews, Famewo, Pearce and Gunter.That’s not a great back 40 -

He didn’t confirm or deny anything if you read between the lines. We may still go in for a proper left back. All he’s saying is we have two or three options who can fill in there.RedRobin said:

I think you can read it both ways - "we knew going into the season... didn't need to worry too much". So it can easily be read that Adkins wants one but didn't see the urgency.0

impressed by what ive seen so far - 2nd half against reading and tonight - we look sharp and hungry and the midfield has some physicality at last - wouldn't sign gomes - no better than what we have - all our signings now need to be better than what we have and the optimists amongst us believe that will be the case - we are shopping at the right time now, with a half empty basket and a pocket full of cash for the right purchases in a market that will start to drop - the wiring is in place - just need to add some dynamite now to blow this division apart !!! - over to you Tommy - lets rock !!!1

What do you expect him to say?
"we are fucked you know Scotty, 10 days before the start of the season I don't have a left back, what can I do? Desperate, we can pay, I'll improve them, I'll pay top dollar"
Adkins knows exactly what he is saying and who he is saying it to. In private he will say
"your a good player, your improve us, you'll have competition from Ben because he is a good player to. But I also have Chrissy, he can play there. Young Roddy can play a bit as well. I want you, I don't need you".15 -

Don’t think buying a left back was ever in the budget and we only ever was going to get a loan signing to cover that area4
-
No but a lack of positive evidence doesn't prove a negative. He will be on a list. The only question is is he high enough on our list to give him what he wants? I suspect not, yet. He could go higher on ours, his expectations could also go down.RedRobin said:

The same is probably true for a dozen players, if not more.0 -
Know that you’ve been saying all Summer that Maatsen will be 100% coming back so will be interesting to see if that happens.RonnieMoore said:Don’t think buying a left back was ever in the budget and we only ever was going to get a loan signing to cover that area0 -
Problem with Ogilvie is he wants to play centre back and my Gills supporting mate said he’s better there anyway. So we might have enquired but if he wants a CB position it might not work for us0

Write down 12 random Charlton related headlines in a circle. Take a bottle.

Hmmmm noticed he wasn’t his usual chirpy positive self. Perhaps he’s unhappy or just recovering from COVID but I’m not reading too much into it. Seems Louis and Cawley are holding back asking if we’re close to signing anyone for some reason.Vfrf said:noise on another forum that nigel may not be happy with sandgaard, something about broken promises. sounds a bit like panic to me, anybody itk have anthing to say ont hat?2 -
I googled him the other day because I had never heard of him. I think it was on the Pompey local press, may have been someone else's, list of players they could be after.Henry Irving said:

Ha! Even if that were true Adkins is FAR too professional to have told anyone that. Jesus, people are so damn keen to try and find negatives in positive situations.Vfrf said:noise on another forum that nigel may not be happy with sandgaard, something about broken promises. sounds a bit like panic to me, anybody itk have anthing to say ont hat?12 -
No idea what thrill these people get from making so much shit up15
