    Irankunda going to Sporting. Could Watford look at TC as a potential replacement?
    They only sign players from udinese
    August 28th Udinese sign TC
    August 29th Watford loan TC from Udinese for the season. 
    They could do that next year... TC signs for Udinese for free, we get no compensation because he signs for a club outside of England... Instantly gets loaned to Watford

    Well, supporting Charlton is far from a pleasurable experience!
    We've gone from nearly league 2 to staying up last season in the championship in 2.5 seasons, if you can't find pleasure in that then kindly fuck off and support Bayern Munich or someone who just wins every week and bulldozes every side Infront of them 
    Well, very nice indeed and is that really necessary or is it becoming the norm on this forum, to insult others?

    The last two seasons have seen progress but I’ve been around a lot longer than that, maybe you have too?

    A lot of my Charlton experience hasn’t been great but I’m still here supporting, I’d just like to have more joy, than angst, or is that too much to ask?
    Some people are so overwhelmingly positive about everything Charlton, they'll verbally assault you online to prove it.

    You know when you can just picture a player in a kit, I have pictured TC in a Watford or QPR kit a few times and said he would do well at either.

    Campbell signing and extension must be regarded as a positive..
    Only if we play him on the left. He has done nothing on the right to show that he will either...

    1) put a cross in for our loan striker to attack

    2) cut onto his left & shoot. 

    I can see us trying to shoehorn him into the team by starting him on the right & like last Sat have to switch him with Grant or Alli after 30 mins.

    As @Berkshire1970 said above.....I'd rather take £3m now & use that money on a proper Right winger.
    He put a couple of good balls in from the right in pre-season. You are right he’s much better on the left though 

    Alli has played on the right a fair bit in his career. So I think we can have a new right winger and Alli on the right, Grant and TC on the left 

    No reason why we can’t keep TC and also sign a new right winger. £3m won’t get you much anyway, which is why we are probably looking at the loan market for the winger position anyway 
    Apter... we already have 2 right wingers.
    TC is better than Apter though. If we can keep TC I’d rather do that and lose Apter 
    We’ve never seen Apter play in his proper position .  
    He flopped in league 1 last season in his proper position. Nathan Jones will have seen plenty of both and it’s quite clear which one he rates higher. Don’t think it’s really a debate tbh, if we can keep TC then we should, even if that means Apter is surplus to requirements again 

    A good loan for Apter in league 1 could then mean he’s ready to step into our squad next season and replace the loan RW we have this season 
    TC flopped before Jones backed him in league one . Many backed him to be released .  
    Backed him in league 1 being the key phrase. If Apter has lost his confidence then I’m not sure chucking him back into the championship is the best next step. Especially if he’s not going to get many minutes with a new signing coming in and Alli able to play on the right 

    If we lose TC then yes we will probably have to keep Apter around. If we could keep TC though, then Apter can go to league 1 and hopefully regain his confidence before he has another go at the championship 
    I was only saying that people shouldn’t be written off .  Apter has never player in his best position for us .  He was quite good in a few games as wing back , and then dropper off .  Wingers are confidence players and not many of them play well all the time .

    Mate I’m not sure that’s totally correct lol this forum is a snapshot of society! Some view everything with suspicion and gloom and others see stuff in a positive way. It’s all about balance I think. I have been called overly positive on here a few times just because I don’t think NJ should be sacked ! The owners told to do one or that we won’t get relegated this season. All just different viewpoints mate

    I see a fair amount of rumours and transfer activity this week & still no right winger. Goals for Charlton are going to be hard to come by & I can only put it down to lack of funds. I expect loans to come in over the next few days. Uninspiring transfer window. 
    I'm genuinely not sure I've ever seen you post anything positive
    Last week and the week before. I said we had the best manager in the league who’s achieved miracles. What about that?
    That's not being positive. That's being delusional.

    Opinions aside Jones against the odds achieved miracles keeping Charlton in the championship. That’s a fact!

    TC needs to be coached to drive into the box and cut back to MFs arriving late. Carey/Knibbs eould get a hatful.
    Reminds me of a foreman I once worked under. He always called me a MF when I arrived late for work.

    TC is not going anywhere.
    Judging by the Preston forums I wouldn't be so sure! Is that something you've heard? 
    Don’t want to put my head on the chopping block here in case something has changed haha but as of last week TC has no interest in leaving.


    Thought I’d come back and add to this as have had some more information re TC, and I’d always want others to share if they knew something going on at the club - so only fair I do the same (and risk the backlash if it turns out to be wrong lol).

    As I said before, TC has no real interest in leaving. He likes the club, is settled, I don’t think he wants to move too far from home, and he has a good relationship with Jones.

    Problem seems to be around the contract renewal which I’m sure most people have worked out.

    He signed his previous deal at a time where he was fairly insignificant to us (most of us probably wouldn’t have batted an eye had he have been released) and whilst he got a payrise when we got promoted, he feels his salary probably doesn’t really line up with where it should and wants a few extra k per week.

    As a little bit of context on this, his wage per week is lower than the Lisbie brother at Reading - nevermind some of the wingers at this level.

    I’m not taking it as TC having ridiculous demands, don’t think he’s that type anyway tbh. He’s probably just fully aware of what other clubs would be willing to pay him.

    In all honesty, I think he’d take a slightly lower salary here than at Preston, for example, just to stay with us - just can’t be significantly lower like it currently is.

    Have absolutely no idea what the clubs stance is on this, whether they don’t want to match TC’s demands and therefore want to cash in, or if they’re playing the long game hoping his demands drop, on that I haven’t got a clue at all.

    All I really know is, if TC goes, it’s not because he’s forced a move.

    Just passing on what I’ve heard. Apologies if he now goes and signs for Preston tomorrow lol.



    If that’s the case we really should just give him what he wants. An extra 5k on top of what we would offer him is roughly 750k over a 3 year deal we let him go free and we lose millions

    We should still be expecting a decent outlay on at least one player. Carter told us we'd be spending more this summer than last. 
    With bigger wages and signing on fees I doubt we’re that far short of last summers outlay already. Enough in reserve I suspect for the right player.
    No chance IMO 
    Thing is, we don’t know for sure, either way. I think we’re paying a lot more in wages this year which soon adds up, wouldn’t be surprised if a couple of players are on over £1m a year. Fees paid are split over the length of the contract and the money is not completely written off as some players will command a fee when sold. Trying to estimate all this is impossible.
    I expect Grant will be on a big wage, but who else? Chalobah probably.

    Signing players from a relegated Dutch club and Dundee doesn’t scream big wages and fees to me.

    McNamara? Maybe, but could easily be on a below average Champ wage.

    Alli and Ouma don’t seem likely to be big earners.

    Still feels to me like we’re not spending as much as last season. Hopefully the recruitment works out better and some of last summers signings like Knibbs show more than they have so far.
    Maybe, but it’s all guesswork, we’ve no idea what signing on fees there were. There are so many factors that it’s impossible for us to make an informed guess.

    Would be an interesting one as he can also play RWB as well if we needed to switch shapes

    TC would probably command a 5 figure wage from Preston now or other championship clubs this summer. We really should be able to compete with that level and it’s worrying if we can’t 

    Hopefully just a case of us playing hardball and we will get him signed soon. The problem is if he starts the season well the number and the amount of interest will only go up

    That still doesn't make sense. The only way they can improve their financial situation is to sell some players. Their losses will be higher ths season as they were relegated. Keeping the same players, on the same wages, is sleep walking into administration.

    Maybe that's their plan...

    It won’t be the same wages, they’ll have decreased upon relegation. I think they’re hoping to bounce back, if that does look likely they will hope to bank more money in the tough January market

    They aren’t financially mudded they’re just under an embargo for over spending unfortunately they really don’t need to sell Mills so they can hold out for a good fee

    If the player wants the move we all know that it’s very difficult for the club to hang onto a player that’s had his head turned. They can of course but it’s pointless holding onto someone who wants out and is pissed off.

    They can’t afford to lose them though. It’s not like Shef wed last year, Oxford are not allowed to register anyone so the squad they have is it until the embargo is lifted. 

    They’re already in a bit of a shit situation
