    All the investment is going in the Women's team.😭
    This is a good point! 
    How is it?  It’s like saying I never bought a Ferrari cos I bought that pack of space raiders. 
    Jesus, terrible analogy. We’re talking about 2 teams, under one investment. He can buy the car or the crisps all he wants but the point stands he’s investing more in one than the other... 
    if you genuinely think the women’s transfer activity is hindering the men’s team you’re off your trolley.
    Lol of course I don’t. I was being an arse to prove a point. 

    I remember the glory days of Charlton V Arsenal in every woman’s FA Cup Final. Good to see investment going into them!

    I very rarely post on player signings but we've gone about this quietly and got it done. Not sure if it was completed in time for Saturday and I'm pretty sure he wouldn't have taken part given how late the signing is. NA already has he's team sorted for Saturday I believe
    Put him on the list.
    Given up on the list. We were too dry for too long.

    That and I was getting moody messages when people got stuff wrong.

    I do wonder why Olly Groome needs to bother shooting down a rumour about a player if it’s not true...... if we don’t even want them then who really cares? It’s more if there is a potential signing at risk by it that he will try and shut it down.

    why should it really matter if we are linked with players who aren’t coming?
    Don’t think he did dismiss it or say it’s rubbish he just said it’s funny how fans react to some sites .. never said if it’s true or not ?

    Read what he said again and again and again until you understand it.

    He didn't agree or disagree to it. 

    He said fans are getting strung along by obvious troll accounts. 


    That could be those posting sh1t about Sandgaard or it could be those posting that we're signing Kirk, could even be both.

    It’s feeling like we might not bring too many more in. Or have I read that wrong?

    Can't remember what the original troll said now but if it was "it is a done deal" then maybe that is what Olly is dismissing. Yes, I am clutching at straws but I am also still waiting for the results of the medicals that took place a couple of Wednesdays ago. And until Mullins actually kicks a ball in a Wrexham shirt I am not ruling him out either.

    Before the game - Addicks to Victory is about 3 minutes long so one new signing ever 30 seconds or so.

    Doesn't sound like we want Kirk because we don't want to pay for him

    Was hoping for some good transfer news this afternoon, as just been made redundant, to pick me up. Knew it was coming but hoped it might change, sadly not! So please someone tell me we've made some signings...not made up shite!

    I blame Rich Cawley. Fancy going on holiday a week before the football season starts. No priorities that chap.

    An uncomfortable viewing.
    Lucy & Thomas both ill at ease.
    I think reality has hit Thomas and I'm not overly optimistic of some excellent signings, it was about making the top 6 and integrating the academy lads.
    It looks like he let his enthusiasm get the better of him, with the blow the league out of the water comment.
    I thought it he was pretty honest and realistic in his answers.Didn’t think it was particularly uncomfortable other than the fact it’s new to both of them. Personally I wouldn’t try and take any negatives out of what was an attempt at an honest positive interview. So basically I’m saying I thought it was ok.😜

    Didn't we announce Racon and Zheng Zhi on the pitch first home game against Scunny? Could see Thomas being the showman type to pull something like this

    Man, sorry to hear your news, hope something turns up good for you soon, we will all have to hope that some good news comes from CAFC to help things along :)
