    The fact that golfie has a post complaining that we can’t get rid of our lesser players and then another post immediately after it complaining when we get rid of one of our lesser players because it’s ’waste’ and ‘churn’ is such a perfect summary of him as a poster. They should hang it in the museum
    But he’s always right.
    I make him just behind Ronnie Moore in who talks the most bollocks.

    I remember going to Sutton pre season a couple of years ago. We created nothing in 90 minutes , it was a sign of what was to come.

    I hope double downing on our formation again doesn’t bite us in the arse. 1 or 2 actual wingers (if Dixon is one and can step up quick) doesn’t give us much room to change things up.

    So sounds like we’re out of budget until
    some leave. Probably fair enough but shows the huge challenge of trying to undo 5 years of bad recruitment in just one me or two transfer windows.

    And that’s without any confidence or certainty that the signings we’ve made are going to the significant upgrades we need them to be.

    We’d have to be seriously cursed if the likes of Berry, Docherty and Godden suddenly turn into turnips the moment they signed for Charlton.

    All three of them should be more than capable of being leaders in a promotion chasing side at this level. In fact, all three of them have been leaders for League One title winners in the past (Luton 2019, Coventry 2020 and Hull 2021).


    We shall see with the likes of Mitchell, Ahadme and Edwards who all show promise but have something to prove.
    Charlton fans have already wrote them off after  60 odd minutes in a pre season friendly though 😂

    Edwards was one of few to have a decent game yesterday.  Definite better option at LCB than Gilly. If Small wont sign an extended contract, I might favour the Scot despite him not having the same threat going forward. Ahadme is carrying a niggle. Mitchell hampered by lack of CBs ability to bring ball out. Signs of organisation but two goals from a L2 side is poor.

    Zach was pumped up yesterday and must start in middle, as the only CB to bring the ball out. Alex out wide can look across the line and organise without having to keep looking right and left. (Jones was struck dumb).

    The main thing is with this squad is if NJ is happy with it and the effort they put in. He was not happy yesterday so we need to see an improvement, either with the current players putting in more effort and playing better, or with new, better players coming in

    We have a group of owners who are seemingly happy to spend to get players the manager wants. Unfortunately we have a big squad which currently has too many players that we don’t seem able to give away. That is an inherited problem passed down from the previous ownership and recruitment so we can’t pin it on the owners. It will take time to resolve but given time I think it will be sorted

    Outside of Fraser who else in our squad was signed by previous ownerships that we want to get rid of? 

    The majority were signed last summer that Scott was in the background for.

    That was including Campbell, but they seem adamant to claim he’s more central as well

    So let’s look at it, we know Jones wants to trim the squad down as it is, it’s too big. We also are going to bring in at least another 3 players, one of which is Dixson, another is a keeper, and one likely to be Potts. That’s a minimum.

    So with at least 3 to come in, we need more than 3 to leave. Who are they going to be?

    Ness? Edun? Fraser? AMB? Zach Mitchell on loan? Asiimwe on loan?

    Anyone else?
  • I think we’ll be Ok. 

    A new GK will come in. 

    Move on Ness, Fraser and Edun (easier said than done I know), replace with Potts, Bishop and Dixon. 

    Then hopefully pick up one or two premier league loans that will really push the first 11.

    Add Miles into the mix come the end of September and I think we could be having a good season ahead of us.

    Tbf not signed by Scott either, just AMB and Ness who I think we’ll let go on permanents (if possible).

    Well their names are:-

    Isted (gone?)
    Jones
    Gillesphey
    REG (if he is seen as a CB)
    Watson
    Edun
    Coventry
    Docherty
    (Berry undecided)
    Fraser

    Dont care who signed them, they need moving on. Which means we will struggle to fill a bench.


    What ?????

    Are you saying they are players you want to get rid of ?

    We only signed Docherty a month ago 🙄.

    I'd guess Ness,Fraser and AMB definitely out. Edun might be one that goes late in the window along with Asiimwe on loan.

    Please tell me this isnt serious? I’m worried it is.

    Strong early 'prize tit of the season' frontrunning. That said if Conor Coventry fails to happen I'm just as endangered

    Glad you’re not in charge.

    It’s replying to posts like this trying to offer some different perspective that gets you in trouble with people saying you’re a happy clapper because you don’t want to get rid of half a dozen players who signed six or less months ago.

    So promoted from youth players that won't be on big wages anyway. Shouldn't be difficult to move on you'd imagine. 

    Just don't buy this 'we inherited a bad situation' when they signed all the players they want to move on last summer.

    Apart from T Campbell who Jones wants to play as a striker ( fair enough) we don’t have any width in the team - it was all too narrow and congested yesterday 
    it’s like watching England under Southgate. I think Jones tactic is to win 1-0 by boring thr opposition to death and sneaking a breakaway goal
