    Presume it’ll be a ‘free transfer’

    Cheers Craig, all the best. Unless we’re playing Burton.

    Dont worry he'll put in a MoTM performance against us, whilst whoever is in goal for us will look like Stevie Wonder

    Great news, always winced when I saw him on the team sheet

    Congratulations , you were a part of Charlton history (the shittiest footballing period we have endured )

    Correct decision.

    never worked out for him  .. he suffered through playing behind an ever changing and often very shaky defence .. never looked convincing or in command

    Good for him. Capable of some sublime saves and some atrocious errors. Didn't naturally command his box and not good at distributing the ball which tended to make his defenders nervy, especially in a team trying to pass out from the back. Still looks like a finance manager. Hope he does well at Burton

    Didn't work out, though he was POTY for Pompey the year before he arrived. It happens we move on,
    Good luck Craig.

    Typical Charlton keeper, World Class one minute and a disaster the next.

    Good luck too him.

    Relieved!

    never rated him and he always petrified me.  Glad AMB got the nod and hopes he carries in as he is at the moment

    I would invest it in a new deal for AMB.

    Think AMB cemented his no 1 spot with his Buffon-esque performance Tuesday

    Sensible move for both parties. Once Joe Wollacott comes back, Craig would be 3rd choice keeper, he needed to move on.

    Excellent news. 
    I regret to say he is one of the worst goalkeepers I've seen play for us. 
    I wish him well.

    Not disappointing.

    Didn’t think he was quite as bad as people made out, but goalkeepers and Charlton fans have a great affinity and let’s be honest we never bonded. 

    He’s a clear third choice so 100% the right decision all round. Never doubted his professionalism or effort.

    Wish him good luck in the future.

    Think the stick towards him has been a bit OTT by many but there’s no doubt he has struggled. Wish him well as he seems a decent fella but the right
    move for both parties.

    A very lower league goalkeeper. 

    The odd amazing save. That's the issue - imagine making a youtube video of his good moments (including the odd assist), you could be very excited he was coming to your club!

    This over and over again.

    Always came over as a nice bloke and I wish him well but he was a crap keeper.

    He cost us points so he hope he’s a cross between Ray Charles and Stevie Wonder when he faces us, and Banks and Yasmin against everyone else.
