Probably when his kids are on school summer holidays, Golfie.golfaddick said:Can't understand a football journalist going away on holiday at the start of the football season and during the transfer window.

He is also a sports journalist not a football journalist, he covers a number of different sports such as Boxing etc.MickeyBennett said:

Just means that Charlton cant sign anyone till Cawley gets back... Not ideal, but what can we do about it30

We can sign them but there will be no way for fans to find out about it.ForeverAddickted said:Just means that Charlton cant sign anyone till Cawley gets back... Not ideal, but what can we do about it4 -
I'm sure Raelynn can step in for Cawley!17

It will be back to the days when, for instance, we signed John Barnes and didn't know till he was introduced to the crowds disbelief. That turned out well.Henry Irving said:

In fairness to Barnes, a bit like Di Canio’s cameos, he pulled off one of the juiciest bits of skill I have seen from a player in a Charlton shirt. I will see if I can find the footage anywhere, but remember him having two players bearing down on him from behind and him pulling off some flick trick to mug the pair of them off and take the ball and himself reversed between both of them. Am pretty sure it was vs Liverpool too. Got the pulse moving for sure…2

Any new players will have to cover their faces while they play. It will be like The Masked Footballer. Then when Rich gets back he will reveal who they are.4

If I remember correctly this time last season Cawley would still pipe up if he had a decent bit of info whilst on holiday, so all is not lost!0

Cawley's already having a great time on his hols.

Ah you mean our blond haired right back on Saturday, must be time for his name to be revealed. Why should we wait until Cawley is back up find out?Uboat said:Any new players will have to cover their faces while they play. It will be like The Masked Footballer.

I have visions of Jonathan Ross guessing Harry Kane or Lewandowski, only for Simon Church to be revealedUboat said:Any new players will have to cover their faces while they play. It will be like The Masked Footballer. Then when Rich gets back he will reveal who they are.7 -
I think she was transferred from the women's team as I heard her name is Claire.Scoham said:

I couldn't give a fig about rumours. I just think it's strange that a sports journalist who covers a lot of football goes on holiday just as the season starts & the transfer window is still open.MickeyBennett said:

If he has school aged children then fair enough, but even then the schools broke up a week before the season started.
As I said, it dont bother me.....just think it's strange that's all.2 -
See I think Kirk should be starting over DJ based on what I saw pre season, and if we sign another player in that position, then again I'd probably let DJ leave over Kirk. However if Kirk is the one garnering interest, especially from championship clubs, then I think we cut our losses and sell him9

Agreed, was very shocked to see DJ starting over Kirk at the weekend but he may have been a bit lightweight for accy away.sam3110 said:See I think Kirk should be starting over DJ based on what I saw pre season, and if we sign another player in that position, then again I'd probably let DJ leave over Kirk.

Deji Elerewe being loaned out for a minimum of 28 days is a weird one.
The only upside is he'll probably get some game time when their season starts. (Saturday's friendly was defensively dismal for Wealdstone)
But he's young enough to not be included in the squad cap numbers nor does he earn very much and Wealdstone unlikely to be covering it all so the decision isn't financial un;ess the bean counter is a moron or we're actually broker than some keyboard worriers would have us believe.
He can be loaned out on this sort of a 'callback anything after 28 days' deal up to the end of the window so why now when he might be needed?
He's at least our 4th best centre half - after watching Innis and O'Connell on Saturday that's harsh on Deji
This only begins to make sense if Charlton has a senior CH incoming this week. No word of any such thing yet.
Charlton is now one injury away from no options at CH and let's face it Innis has played 101 minutes this week so will break down imminently. One harsh referee decision against Derby and we can be down to maximum one vaguely competent CH.
This is rash.
DE's capabilities and experience at CH are far greater than any cover or backup that we have for either full back slot. In truth we currently have no experienced cover at all for either fullback. This is cretinous.
Able but makeshift right back with no cover.
Two dodgy CH's with one to cover, whom Garner clearly ranks 3rd of 3.
Right back playing creditably at left back with enthusiastic but inexperienced youngster for cover.
Puts all the noise about striker shortage into stark perspective.
I'll wager 10:1 Charlton's next recruit will be a midfielder. Dereliction of duty.2 -
It’s good but is it better than One Size Fitz Hall or The Loch Ness Drogba?hoof_it_up_to_benty said:

Will be hard for Reading as they are under an embargo! Likely Blackpool but for no less that what we paid. Agent talk!MattF said:2 -
According to Nixon the hold up is Palace are negotiating a new contract with JRS. Won’t move until it’s done, makes sense.3
-
We have been told that there needs to be movement to accommodate squad bolstering so just a question of value on the table and how important player A vs player B is to our chances of success? I think Kirk could have a lot to offer, BUT, not with just one pace merchant in the front three (CBT, to a lesser extent DJ). We need speed on both wings or on one wing and up front IMHO and so Kirk’s departure is viable for me, subject to getting in a pace merchant with some end product. Not easy this game is it. Wish I could get my hands on that black box for half a day 😉1
-
I would only sell if it’s a profit on what we paid for him, especially as Blackpool are probably in for him due to Forest going for Josh Bowler. So they will have money to spend if that deal happens. And only if some of that can then be reinvested in a replacement that will add goals. Still think Kirk is the most likely scorer out of him, CBT and DJ so I was expecting him to start on the left with CBT on the right this season3
-
Would be disappointed if Kirk went. See way more potential in him than DJ.3
