    Oh well, life goes on innit, and on to the next match 
  • All jokes aside, that is poor. To not have backups to fall back on.

    That’s inexcusable tbh. We’ve had 3 months to sign a striker after letting a perfectly good one go for free.

    I assume either QPR pulled of the deal because they needed to get a striker in themselves or Bonne changed his mind. Either way, leaving it until the evening of deadline day and failing is a complete embarrassment. Sandgaard has once again over promised and horribly under delivered.

    Didn’t want Bonne but fucking hell you couldn’t make it up. Whatever the merits or otherwise of Washington and Davison we are now a Stockley injury off being right royally fucked. And this when it looks like two signings could have actually made this a successful season. Sandgaard better get used to the idea of losing a lot more money. 
  • No one wanted him anyway so why people complaining about the deal fallen through …. 
  • What were the complications, sounds very ambiguous.

    If Aneke can pass a medical don’t see why Bonne can’t. 


    Ah. Misread the medical part anyway.

    We are a fucking shambles
    Two players out
    NONE in
    Amazing 
    We will NOT get out of this division with this ownership strucuture
    Goodnight all

    Here's me thinking we signed 7 players this window? 
  • Shambles very very poor. Feel for Garner really  not enough squad depth and barely any goal threat up front with stockley not suiting the style and 300k sicknote always injured.

    Also to not get a centre back in is absolute negligence. Think I'm more pissed off at that tbh.
    I wonder if the Terell Thomas thing is true and he's considered the CB free transfer option.

    We didn’t sign Bonne and adults are crying 🤣.

    See you all Saturday.
    No. We didn't sign ANYONE despite being short at BOTH centre back and striker. No one is crying because it's all so predictable
    I suggest you have a read about….

    No signing. Player passed their medical but no deal.
    It doesn't actually say that
    It could have been many reasons 

    Yes it does...

    We thought we were there and the player had passed his medical at our training ground on Thursday evening, but unfortunately there were complications beyond our control late in the day, which went down to the last minute, and we haven’t been able to sign the player.
    The player had passed his medical !!

    He did NOT fail his medical 

    My grasp of English is quite good 

    The player did NOT fail his medical ffs !!

    I kind of WOULD rather we'd signed no-one than Bonne. Kanu and Leaburn are clear. Wibble

    I absolutely still rather it.
  • Cue all the people who said “I’d rather no one than Bonne” complaining that we didn’t sign any one.

    Why does it have to be so binary.  We can want players to come bolster the squad as clearly needed without being overly keen on Bonne.  It was never about mere bodies coming in it was about adding quality to help us compete for promotion as we're clearly lacking and now relying on frees that no other club has deemed worth signing/ retaining in the window.

    Might get another CBT and be laughing or might not. 

    Charlton fans only want Charlton to do well and find it so bizarre the snarky comments and scorn at  fellow Charlton fans being disappointed/ frustrated at lack of adding to a potentially decent base squad.

    So many people delighted they can have a meltdown now. 

    We still finish ahead of where we did last season. Maybe Bonne gets a release and we can grab him on a free, who knows. 
    Nope, free agents need to released before the window closes.

    Following the closure of the 2022 summer transfer window, the club would like to update supporters.

    The Addicks signed seven players during the window and were working very hard to add at least one more player on transfer deadline day.

    Charlton Owner and CEO Thomas Sandgaard said: “It has been a busy few days and we were very confident of bringing in another striker before the deadline. The whole recruitment team - myself, Steve [Gallen], Martin [Sandgaard] and Ben [Garner] - have been working tirelessly to get this last deal completed.

    “We thought we were there and the player had passed his medical at our training ground on Thursday evening, but unfortunately there were complications beyond our control late in the day, which went down to the last minute, and we haven’t been able to sign the player.

    “With players departing the club on loan, that frees up some space in the squad and we’ll now have a further look at options in the free agent market.

    “Despite not getting a striker in, we have a very good squad in place and an excellent manager, as our early-season performances have shown. The whole group are focused on the coming months and doing the best they can for the club.”

    Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha 

    You can all mock me all you like......but I wasn't wrong.

    Mid table obscurity once again. 
  • I'm more pissed off we haven't signed a CB.

    The 'free agent market'?
    Like instead of shopping in Lidl, it's shopping at the food bank.
    Or going down Lewisham 'market' after the stall holders pack up, and gathering a few cabbage leaves from the pavement.
    As far as I am concerned it remains a must win at Bolton.
    I suppose the remaining players have less competition for their place in the team, that might be a good thing.

    Let's just hope Miles stays fit. I back him to do well if called on and we may as well use him as I doubt he'll be playing for us next year.

    We are now officially fucked. . . 95% done direct from the man who does the transfers. . . Still doesn’t happen . . . Fear the mood turns now so early in the season if we don’t win on Saturday.

    Not sure what else there is to say. At least under Roland we got Josh Parker.

    To get absolutely no-one in in two key areas that desperately needed it is bordering on criminal.

    Tried to make it sound convincing didn't he.But surely we can all see through this mans bluster now?

    Had no intention of signing anybody. Hasn't payed a penny in transfer fees all summer.
    Don't know what his 'out' is, but reckon the wheels are well in motion
  • Bonne was about to sign but had his head turned by the Welling media team unfortunately

    Bonne was our main striker target all summer? Yeah right
    I thought we weren’t leaving it all to the last minute this time Thomas?

    Well that didn’t go to plan. Just passed on what I was told from a usually impeccable source, not convinced even the recruitment team have much of a clue.
    Can you tell us who the players were at this point?
