  • After the Mason Burstow situation, let's not go overboard on Miles Leaburn despite his good start. We have been here so many times before, let him learn the game as he will have a full complement of defenders next time he plays. Decent start but young players need to learn so much including when we are out of possession. Same applies to Rak Sakyi who has to learn when to pass and when to shoot despite his fine debut last night. 
    The differences between burstow and leaburn  are that leaburn has had an academy upbringing. He is also a boy with a man's physique, he won't be bullied or disappear in games like burstow did.

    i agree that he needs to be managed, start in cups, cameos off of the bench etc but I have more faith in leaburn than I did in burstow.

    I have a feeling that they will get Bonne back on loan , and loan out Leaburn to get some experience - as well as offloading JFC , DJ and Gilbey. - Garner said he prefers to work with a smaller squad. - The emergence of Clayden and Henry will add some depth and can always recall Deji at CB if required. 
    Possibly the worst idea since on a warm summers evening in July 1888 in the village of Braunau am Inn…Austria.

    I know Leaburn made a needless foul that was commented on but I like to see that in a young player. I thought Burstow wasn't ready because he almost marked the defenders whereas Leaburn makes a nuisance of himself. Some of the experienced pros at this level are not going to be nice to him and it is important he gets in there first on them.

    It is perfect though to be able to bring him on when there is not great pressure. He needs a bit more of that for a while IMO.

    The Wilks rumour feels a lot like the “we tried but couldn’t get it over the line” we heard in the early Roland years. Never felt genuine, appeared to be the club wanting to look like they were in for some exciting players.

    The way things are off the pitch I wouldn’t be surprised if it was leaked by the club to look like money isn’t an issue. Making staff redundant and Garner talking about the budget doesn’t fit with a big L1 name like Wilks coming in.
    How can that work when no one form the club has mentioned we are after Wilkes. 
    Do you know who the source of the person who shared the Wilks rumour was then?
    More to the point…..do you?
    No, which is why I speculated it may have been leaked by the club to try to show money isn’t an issue.
  • Can we be bitter children please, and send him to train with the U18s if he joins

    He wanted to go to school @ Forest after all

    I heard last night that JFC, Gilbey and McG all going, 2-3 coming in, as those moves transpire. 

    Spoke to a few players, AMB in particular a very nice bloke to talk to. His shoulder op was a success, 2.5 months until full recovery/fitness, games for Gills to fulfil his loan and then back to compete for the no1 spot (is the plan). He was not source of any info btw other than where he is at.

    Clare’s knee was fine, despite him needing an ice pack on it when it came off. He is another lovely lovely guy to have a bit of a chat to. Just very easy going. JRS is the ‘Chill-master’ that boy is so mellow and very welcome at the best club in SE London. 

    And Miles, I am just praying we can hold on to for a while yet. How good is he?

    A real buzz around all the players my kid and I spoke with that I have not seen in a long long time. 



    2-3 signings

    Taylor would fit the style of play perhaps but I don't think his personality or approach is really what Garner is looking for. Even in the good days he was prone to being the "star player", the main man. 

    Garner's preference for shifting roles and tactics between or even during games wouldn't be very conducive to that. Stockley and his goal record will remain a matter of debate but you can't question that even when not scoring he is at least trying to serve the team. 

    Taylor... Would not.

    The biggest reason which negates the need to find other reasons why he won't come here was that he refused to play for us when we went down from the Championship by one point. I doubt he would have the cheek to even contemplate such a move and many fans would not be able to forgive him for what he did.

    Well, it was you who suggested this could be a scam of sorts set up by the club, without any knowledge as to might have done so.
    Whereas I am sure that from time to time we put out conflicting information so as to protect our position in the transfer market, I think your suggestion is taking it a bit far.

    Beyond mental even the thought of it !!! more than likely for both parties.... from our side the bloke downed tools and imo that sent us down. No coming back from that !

    I would never boo one of our own but if LT came back I’d think about it

    Would be hilarious though, TS giving us a league-winning side playing the best football we've ever seen from Charlton while pissing off literally all our fans in increasingly absurd ways

    Davison scored twice for Wimbledon last night and Lapslie got one too for Mansfield.

    Just saying

    Coming from more than one source. How ITK is Cawley these days? Enough to know who we are negotiating with? 

    Edit* ignore as only has 62 followers and a few days ago posted that we were signing Stockton. Cawley is more ITK than this account.

    It’s absolute fantasy imo. 

    There’s only one scenario where he joins and that’s if he feels there’s unfinished business, he’s had a change of heart and feels he owes us for how sour it went. Do I think Lyle is that kind of character? Absolutely not. I think it’s far more likely he ends up at a Championship side pushing for promotion or maybe even goes abroad. 

    That said he would drastically improve us and I am very much in the party of if he said he was sorry and helped us get promoted I couldn’t care what he did. 

    He’s human and he made a mistake

    People really think someone would tear up their contract to take a pay cut ✂️?

    If you do then think who the player in question is.

    If you still do, seek help.

    He's on 'life-changing' money. Can't see him coming back here. But bloody hell, he would be mustard in this system.

    Charlton often need other things to happen for transfers to take place.
    There have been (low) bids for both JFC & Gilbey from the same club.
    if clubs we are looking to buy from, hold out for fees, then it makes sense that we hold out as well to balance the budget……. Bids happen and are rejected or put on hold…… it sometimes needs one to be accepted for the dominos to fall….. and sometimes those dominos don’t fall at all. Gallen’s role is key.
    Both JFC & Gilbey were in Luton trying new golf clubs out, read what you want in to that...

    His contract would be paid up? So effectively, it would be a pay rise
