    I’m going to say it again. I feel like we are going to announce a signing today 👍
    Only another twenty odd days to go, you will eventually to be able to say I told you so. 
    That’s my exact point. I can pretend I’m an ITK 😂😂

    Don't think Apter is worth even considering off loading. There's plenty there to work with with him and I think he's going to get more of a chance once Edwards is back on the other flank. 

    Maybe even worth a look in the 10 role with players going off the boil there. 
    Did he actually play in the 10 role for Blackpool? And was he that good at it?  
    What you’re forgetting is Charlton’s transfer policy is to buy potential from lower divisions for two reasons. The first is budget and the latter we are not attractive to more established championship players. We’ve been languishing league 1 for many years & are rebuilding. Let’s keep focused and be realistic!
    At last, some realism has entered the chat. All that sniping and whining was getting insufferable. Like it or loath it, this is our only way forward, unless someone finds the odd billion down the back of the sofa. COYA!

    I think it’s being emphasised by some of the players going and being linked to other clubs, we are probably fishing in a completely different pond, I was quite optimistic about us finishing mid table earlier in the season, but feeling a little edgy now, would really like a bit of encouraging transfer news. Early days though I know.
    You'd like to have seen 1 or 2 in already by now. We have known for months we have been struggling and need reinforcements, window has been open a week, things shouldn't start moving just as it hits January 1st, wheels should have been turning for weeks before. You've seen other clubs manage to make movements so it is possible.

    As usual though my expectations are on the ground. I am not expecting anything too exciting to strengthen our squad. 

    As soon as I read it would be a sensible window, that was that. 
    They almost certainly have been, almost all of the business that's been done so far has been by teams near the top of the league and as such having stronger hands and higher appeal to players.

    If we were seeing rivals strengthening all around us I'd be more concerned but I'm not overly worried yet. Once the cup game is out of the way I hope things will start moving.
    Like this?

    Norwich are never going to go down there squad is too good, we’ve proved with some of our players good in L1 doesn’t translate to good in the championship no guarantee Donley hits the ground running, and Cashin was hated at Birmingham and all the Blackburn fans are asking if he can play up front and commenting they need a striker rather than a CB somehow they’ve scored less than us. 

    It’s realistically 2 go down from us Oxford, Portsmouth and Blackburn. Pompey have lost a winger signed no one, Blackburn have signed a player in a position they’re not desperate for and Oxford have taken a player who couldn’t get a minute at Stoke and don’t even have a manager not worried about other sides business just yet. 

    Plus we’ve shown if we have our best team we can compete higher up the table the others haven’t and have been on a steady relegation pace 


    All good breaking it down. The post was about being worried about teams around us signing players which they have is all. 
    Well technically it was about signing players AND STRENGTHENING, which honestly I genuinely wouldn't say is the case. It's like us signing Rousillon - another body through the door, patches up a hole in the squad maybe but not a transformative signing that will realistically change a season's trajectory.

    Donley is MAYBE the exception there but even if so that is one signing and not a pattern.

    If we were seeing rivals strengthening 
    Oxford & Norwich have both signed players.
    Player not players

    Coventry have signed 2 on loan from Prem clubs
    Derby one from Germany
    Brum one from The USA
    Norwich one from Canada 
    Oxford a loan from Tottenham 
    Blackburn a loan from Brighton

    Not exactly a lot of business

    And I expect the foreign and Prem clubs didn't have to get a replacement in before releasing one.

    This as per the BBC website.

    Castledine at Huddersfeld has scored some absolute bangers this season.  Not an out-and-out striker but certainly creative and a fine finisher.  Plays either flank or behind the striker, but Chelsea are suppposedly prepared to let him go for £1m.  I'd like us to have at least had a look at him and at only 20 he has a high ceiling

    Another player I have liked for a while is Joe Powell.  Currently captaining Rotherham but he has a crecking left foot, takes a lovely set piece and is very creative.  Might offer us more offensively than the midfielders currently do and he is out of contract in the summer I believe so unlikely to be horrendously proced.

    I mean I agree with this, but the word crecking just had me reading it with an Irish or New Zealand accent😂

    Well we could have solved the issue in the summer instead of Burke and Apter , got in Caleb Taylor. Doing a great job for Millwall, tall quick CB and just bought property in Sidcup. Would have taken the pressure off the likes of Bell and Ramsay.
    But an injury prone Luton man and an untried League 1 winger are not contributing enough.
    Apter technically is one of the best in the squad but has suffered due to the imbalance of the team starting with the injury to Edwards. Needs to be playing in the last third. 
    I am afraid however technically good he is, he is too lightweight for the Champ. He cannot play wingback for that reason, he is not even as good as TC there and TC cannot do it either.
    In addition, Apter is a winger and NJ does not play with wingers.
    I don't think Apter has a future with us and really, for his benefit as well, he should be moved on.
    I disagree! For Blackpool he wasn’t playing as a winger and baring in mind throughout August he was one of our best players. He doesn’t possess pace but good on the ball & has a football brain unlike Campbell. 
    Agree Apter is a much better option than TC because he has a football brain. TC is faster but rarely contributes to anything meaningful + he's got a silly haircut !

    Driving Campbell to St.Mirren himself to avoid the temptation of re-signing him!

    Rumours are him and his recruitment team are all napping at Sparrow Lane all day, disgrace if you ask me

    At this point I will be happy with just a new LWB, at least we will be able to play Apter and get some balance in the team

    Wouldn't want to pay a substantial fee for Bree, if we could do a loan extension until the end of the season and then nab him on a free then that would probably be the best route 
    Cant see Saints allowing that , can you?

    Maybe the likes of Edward’s and Godden coming back is part of the consideration in not diving in at the earliest opportunity - the closer they get to a return, the more confidence they’ll have in them so might affect where we bolster - me, i think a couple of specialist wingbacks and a powerhouse box to box midfielder - if Goddens comeback had / goes to shit then another striker but looks to be going well so I’d look elsewhere 
    Waiting for Godden, there is a play in that.
    We'll end up with Pozzo and Lucky

    Other site saying we might be in for Amara Nallo instead of Scanlon. He has a great record, two senior appearances and two red cards. He’s more of a left sided CB than a LWB though, could mean Gillesphey is on his way out and Edwards is back soon. Could also be cobblers, who knows

    He wasn't good enough for us last year, so why would NJ want him back ? Hasn't had a club since last summer, so unfit.
