    True Charlton style to end it feeling disappointed! Wonder whether we’ve been guzzumpted by someone paying more wages, or just run out of time?

    Will be interesting to see if Fofana goes anywhere 
    Is guzzumpted the word or guzzumpt? 
    Both look like made up language 
    Guzzumpt.  Been around for years. Mainly used when discussing buying property...
    It's gazumped.
    Alright Dion
    I wish! (If the rumours are true!)

    Been talking to my son about the "good old days" when there were no transfer windows & you could sign players whenever you wanted. The only deadline was the 3rd Thursday in March. After that no more signings could he made that season. I remember we signed Bradley Allen around that time in '96 or '97.

    Anyone think thats a better way of doing it ?
    The current transfer window structure was meant to curb clubs spending stupid money. Liverpool just spent £400m+
    But sold 200 million
    Yep. And academy players count as ‘pure profit.’ I don’t know what to make of PSR. Over time it may balance out but it still favours the big clubs who have been able to spend more money historically.

    Wonder if he’s going to Scotland after all. Wouldn’t have to be announced yet.

    Assume Palace decided to keep JRS in light of Eze leaving & the Leicester winger not signing

    They've signed on loan Nigerian forward Christantus Uche from Getafe, so that's one more option. if they let JRS go.

    A load of deals now going through, over 3 hours after the deadline passed. I don't remember announcements this late when the window closed at 11pm?

    Andy Reid to Sunderland is the late night one I'll always hate.

    I really thought the 7pm deadline meant I was going to get an early night 😂

    We sold Danny Murphy at about 1am one deadline day
    Which was 2 hours after the window closed, I assume. It's now nearly 3 1/2 hours since the window closed!

    The Fofana deal sheet  was handed in, apparently.

    Any word on this deal yet?

    Celtic have moved on to Kelechi Iheanacho from Sevilla

  • If Cawley has heard we are done, then I’d say it’s very unlikely the Fofana deal was completed in time.

    Handed in according to who?
  • Celtic have moved on to Kelechi Iheanacho from Sevilla
    If it's the same version of Iheanacho that was at Middlesbrough last season that's a dreadful signing.
  • Only our club to keep us in suspense on a done deal nearly 4 hours after the deadline 🤷‍♂️🤣

    Presumably it's not a done deal until the FA say that the paper work was submitted in time and that it was completed correctly.

    If the club announced it now and it was rejected there would be a major meltdown and chorus of "Only at Charlton". Currently if nothing happens the club can say "Nathan said we were done when the Bree deal was completed."

    UPDATE: Charlton Athletic have submitted their paperwork to the EFL to sign Chelsea striker David Datro Fofana.

    However, it’s understood the feeling at the club is that it may not have gone through in time.

    #CAFC required a deal sheet for extra time to complete the transfer.

    I correct myself ‘potential’ done deal.

    Didn’t we only find out we’d signed Hemed days after the deadline
