    We know we are not going to sign Holsgrove, so for those that still want to argue about it, can we put it on its own thread, so the rest of us can read about any serious rumours
    NJ said just a RW and no more, surely people are saying they don't trust him 🤔 
    You know that do you ? Source ?
    Ask Cawley

    I’d like to up the ante on the Holsgrove chat and see someone refer to him as Hosgrove, just to agitate people more 

    I think add the Igor 'N' (Ventokele), into his name, to make Holsngrove.
    How about Holsgroves as a tribute to Callum Harriots?
    I'll see your Harriots, & raise you with John Humphries!

    It's amazing the amount of people on here who seem to involved within the club in some way, judging by the amount of times I see the words "I've heard" being quoted...🤔
    Charlton is literally a village and Charlton Athletic is like a village, plenty of people know what's going on and we have at least one Mr Idiot
    The village idiots use the phrase "I've heard" cos it sort of sounds important and is shorter than "I've just read 3 posts up"
    Are you Andy Nelson?

    Edit:you needed to be around in 1976 to get the reference

    Things can change. Yes Jones said only one more in and it’ll likely be JRS. But what if Holsgrove wasn’t an option before but is now based on circumstances? If the club rate him that much then I’m sure a deal could be done. His wages probably wouldn’t be too high at Estoril. If we got him in but offset it with JRC going out then the outlay wouldn’t be too much, as I would assume JRC commands a higher wage. 

    Also - the start to the season might have convinced the owners to spend a little more

    While you likely are completely right and that will probably be it, especially if NJ has said it, but then again as we’ve seen over the years things can change very quickly in the window, especially at this point. Players can become available that we thought might not have been available before, just as we lose out on players that we thought we were getting. 

    I for one, and most likely many others too fully expected Holsgrove to have signed for someone by now, and by the sounds of things it didn’t seem like it was going to be us securing him given the clubs interested and the money they were able to willingly chuck out, but already 2 games into the season and less than a week left of the window, he’s still an Estoril player, and I haven’t actually seen any real recent rumours for him, barring some two bob QPR wannabe journalist asking what fans thought of him and that’s it. 

    I’m not saying we’ll get him, but given what stjohnshill mentioned the other day and the fact we’ve seemingly always been big admirers of him, I wouldn’t be surprised to see us try and swoop in on him late if he hasn’t signed for anyone else, despite what has been said.

    Lose to Spurs tonight, signing of JRS announced tomorrow as a consolation.

    What is the 10 second blurry video on Charlton OS?
  • MarcusH26 said:
    Had a quick look at Watford's forum , no mention of Holsgrove just that they need CBs and don't trust the Pozzos to sign anyone. 
    They lost 5-1 at home to Peterborough last night so not surprising.

    Off on a slight tangent, don’t know how much he was but Watford selling louza, I’d have been all over that one, assume he may have been too much for us?, but he was standout against us last season.

    £7m to Panathinaikos. No chance at that price.

    Very good player but surely too rich for our blood at the minute. Maybe one day!

    In which case there’s no point having a rumour page anymore because except the few outgoings that don’t even make the team, JRS is set to be our final signing. 

    We’ve done all our business too early we need to find something to waffle about for the next week

    Ronnie’s started early with his weather updates.

    I suspect that Palace will insert a sizeable sell on % on anything above the £4m, seeing they turned down big money for him last summer! One good season in the champ and he’s a £10/15m player! 
    I wonder what is sizeable and a % figure clubs usually accept / agree upon!

    Leaving Watford because he doesn't want to play championship football. Absolutely zero chance

    That really isn't much of a challenge on here is it?

    Not saying we had any chance etc. just saying what a good player he was and the fact he was moving on I’d have been happy to be linked, especially with where he has gone.Assume they have European football, hence the move?
