Herbie Kane would be great as an option instead of fraser6

Two Campbells, two Watsons, now two Humphreys?SouthWest_Addicks said:Heard that we were looking at Cameron Humphreys from Ipswich on loan. Assume it’s to replace Camera when his loan is cancelled in Jan.5 -
He plays out wide more than he does through the middle now. So for a wide player his goal record is quite good. And he’s scored more goals than all of our players bar May and CBT so he’ll definitely be an improvementShootersHillGuru said:
I’ll defer to your better knowledge of the player then but he’s hardly prolific?Athletico Charlton said:ShootersHillGuru said:Just looked at Humphrey’s stats. Not at all impressive to be honest. Certainly not going to score a hatful of goals to fire us to a promotion.
I think he is a cracking player and has been in great form this season. Would be a huge uptick on our current lot.1 -
Joe Powell impressed me again for Burton the other week. Think he is out of contract this summer. Worth a punt?7
-
Lasse Sorensen impressed me this season wouldn’t mind going for him, he can play a few positions but we need someone for the right so it stops May playing there.4

We are not paying transfer fees so forget about JCH. Loans and freebies are the strategy. Leak a few names we are interested in to make it seem like we mean business and then sign shite on the last day of the window. And then repeat every transfer window.18

Some of our fanbase never fails to amaze me, we love to dictate to other clubs what they should accept for their player, and laugh at others valuations of ours.
Never change Charlton Life, please never change7 -

Appleton froze him out at Lincoln according to their fans. One of the reasons he played so well against usYann897 said:Lasse Sorensen impressed me this season wouldn’t mind going for him, he can play a few positions but we need someone for the right so it stops May playing there.3 -
Apart from the fees we spent last summer you mean?CapeTownAddick said:We are not paying transfer fees so forget about JCH. Loans and freebies are the strategy.

If a player only raises his game as an act of petulance/to get one over an olde manager, it's hardly surprising he was frozen out in the first place.Smithy said:

Did we pay a fee for anyone in the summer? I thought Blackburn confirmed that they would only receive a fee for Edun if we were promoted.Scoham said:

Who did we pay a fee for? (apart from loan fees that everyone in the league pays)
Tennai Watson, Lloyd Jones & Harry Isted were all out of contract free transfers weren’t they?1 -
Definitely paid a fee for May and compensation for Taylor. If I remember right we paid a fee for Edun with more to pay if we're promoted (could be wrong there though) and I expect both the Camara and Tedic loans are quite expensiveOh Eddie Youds... said:

Of course - how did I forget Alfie!Already a cult hero…..feels like he’s been here for years!1

Re JCH, we're supposed to have 2 billionaires behind the SMT, if that's true, and, if its true we've had £450k turned down for him yet he might go for £500k, why would our supposedly 'stinking rich' owners quibble over such a paltry amount, when we would get a proven goalscorer, a perfect foil for Alfie and showing the fans some positive intention? It's beyond me, unless, of course, this "we have money to spend in January" is total BS!
The difference of £50k is neither here or there to 2 billionaires! It makes no sense!7 -

More evidence that Appleton hasn't got a fucking clue.

I think that the owner consortium have an agreed budget. We don’t have a sugar daddy to cough up on a whim. I think it’s why the model will ultimately fail. Too convoluted.Redmidland said:Re JCH, we're supposed to have 2 billionaires behind the SMT, if that's true, and, if its true we've had £450k turned down for him yet he might go for £500k, why would our supposedly 'stinking rich' owners quibble over such a paltry amount, when we would get a proven goalscorer, a perfect foil for Alfie and showing the fans some positive intention?

I get what you're saying @ShootersHillGuru, however extending the 'budget' by £50k for the potential pay back would make financial sense, and help to quell the growing dissatisfaction and hence the reducing footfall from the fans.ShootersHillGuru said:

We already seem to have more and more on this forum saying they're swerving the Oxford game....its only going to get worse in my opinion.6 -
I would guess that Peterborough being so public is part of the issue. If every club knows you'll pay another £50k then every player costs an extra £50k, then that suddenly becomes £100k etc. I agree that it seems like a small amount to quibble over but it's more complicated than that. For what it's worth I think there will be some money to spend because they need to try to get fans on side but I don't think there will be enough to make any real difference to the season or the feel around the placeRedmidland said:Re JCH, we're supposed to have 2 billionaires behind the SMT, if that's true, and, if its true we've had £450k turned down for him yet he might go for £500k, why would our supposedly 'stinking rich' owners quibble over such a paltry amount, when we would get a proven goalscorer, a perfect foil for Alfie and showing the fans some positive intention?

Sorry but trying to find photo of Peterborough Chairman MacAntony and our Chairman at the time Southall , I know I must wash my mouth out.Athletico Charlton said:MarcusH26 said:
Those actually seem pretty sensible bids for JCH.
Such a big mouthed dick. Good luck to anyone paying more than £500K for a L1 striker aged 29 with 6 months on his contract.
That one photograph of them both says all you need to know about him.
Don’t deal with him at all.1 -
My final point on the upcoming 'window' is that I've done a complete about turn on my thoughts. I think MA should go, I don't believe he will be supported in January with the quantity and talent we desperately need. It'll be loans and 'broken' journeymen again. AS, i now believe, is full of utter claptrap and is conning us along!
The fans will stop turning up, and those that go will have their patience severely tested.
All the above is coming from a supporter of over 63 yrs who was very optimistic just 2 weeks ago! I.e ME!
I so want to be wrong but I genuinely fear the worst. Sad sad times!5 -
I’m almost exactly opposite. Not convinced by Appleton but I think we’ll bring in some decent players and will again in the summer. Methven and Scott can’t carry on delivering failure otherwise they’ll be out. Not sure how many rolls of the dice they will get but this is their second. We can limp on with minimal improvement until next season but I would think next season there needs to be a real push. That’s not going to happen with the players we currently have or with more cheap options.Redmidland said:My final point on the upcoming 'window' is that I've done a complete about turn on my thoughts.

I can’t see us getting into a bidding war for JCH, he might be what we need, but I don’t think we’ll be willing to offer what they are after.1

But I’m fairly sure what they are after will significantly change as February approachesMendonca In Asdas said:I can’t see us getting into a bidding war for JCH, he might be what we need, but I don’t think we’ll be willing to offer what they are after.1 -
Agreed. This billionaire owner thing is a bit of a fallacy. If Charlie Boy had taken our club on Dragons Den and Peter Jones took a punt on a 5% stake, that wouldn’t mean we suddenly had billionaire owners and our budget would significantly change to what has been set out in the sales pitch. In fact, the likelihood when those projections turned to sh*t would be Jones writing it off and wiping his hands with it, rather than significantly injecting more.ShootersHillGuru said:
