    Charlton need decent LWB & LB if we are to stay up this season. If the club owners don’t back this, then all the work to get to this point will be wasted. This has been the position for many months. Losing Josh Edwards for season, without cover, will make things challenging.

    I would rather hear from the club ASAP rather than this way IF TRUE.
    Trouble is if it is true and it’s made public, it will be music to any other clubs ears that already know we are desperate for replacements, the prices will go up that little bit more. 
    If only we had prepared before this news comes out then we might not have to he held to random by other clubs. You know.....maybe a month or two ago when he was first injured..🤔

    Dreadful news if true.

    Do not players have regular scans during their recovery to check that the underlying issue has completely healed?

    So aside from Kelman, every injury has broken down once again, Bell, Burke, now Edwards and then we had the mis diagnosis of Godden and Kelman?.
    Something appears to not be right in the Medical room.
    Coincidence that it all seems to have gone wrong following the exit of Dr Will Abbott?

    You have no idea if we did prepare or not. Things change in football transfers all the time. Maybe we did have someone lined up ready for transfer window and now there club has changed mind or sent them somewhere else. 

    This constant line of suggesting the club/Jones/recruitment team are doing nothing is frustrating and boring. Obviously everyone involved in the club wants the best squad possible, so we stay in this league.

    This is what happens when you don’t have suitable cover in place and you rush players back

    Left back seems completely cursed for us. As soon as we find a good one they're either a loanee or if we find someone on a permanent they get some injury curse

    Absolutely gutting if Josh is out for the season and we might have to go and get the chequebook out for a permanent. 
    The amazing thing about Josh is that he didn’t turn up with a reputation of getting injured… I think he maybe missed one game in three years for Dunfermline?

    Unfortunately he missed eight games last season (miracle it was less than ten tbh given how bad the tackle was from Clare) and 19 and counting so far this season.

    Just shit luck as you say.
    Oh absolutely it's just shit luck. Josh came with a near perfect record and he's just been so unlucky, nothing we can really do about it.

    Unfortunately ankles and knees are complicated joints. Heart goes out to Josh - frustrating enough for us and the club but desperate for him.

    This is the same rumour that happened about Godden last month who now is playing. I’m calling bullshit.
