    Is it quiet as it's a bank holiday and not your typical monday?

    If cannot get a fee for Kanu then do what Hammers did with Coventry and free transfer with 50% sell on

    Would presume you're right, but maybe someone who can do the 10 as well as serving as a striker might be appealing? Not sure if DKD is all that mind you
    Is he good enough ?

    What if Kanu says no thanks, I’d prefer a free transfer next season?

    Riis would be a good signing imo. A good championship player. As good as leaburn is, an injury to him would be very damaging given Godden’s injury record too. Would be surprised if we don’t bring a striker in as not sure Mbick is ready just yet 
    When is Kelman back? Would be pretty unlucky if Leaburn, Kelman and Godden were all out at the same time but knowing Charlton it’s entirely possible!
    We had two CBs pull up at the same moment against Spurs. With Charlton anything is possible. Think the current system fits a big strong player like Leaburn rather than a kelman ir Godden too. So Riis fits the bill 
    It’s precisely the system Kelman thrived in for Orient. We’d just need to play it long a bit less or use Grant as the target  
    Grant isn’t a target and Kelman had creative players behind in Agyei, Donley, Galbraith, O’Neill etc. Grant Carey Alli and TC are attacking threats but they’re not players who’s going to play beautiful through balls for Kelman to latch on to or pinpoint low crosses, the only player in our entire squad capable of that is probably JRC just a shame he’s ridiculously slow and not got much of an engine 
    Mwamba can do that

    I’d be tempted to get Conor Coady in the door as a player / coach personally. Reckon he’d do an excellent job mentoring the likes of Mwamba, Fullah and others.

    We don’t have the squad space luxury of that

    The article on the OS says he’s in contract until 2028?

    “Kanu remains under contract with the club until 2028, having signed an extension in the summer of 2025.”
    Did they really not announce this? I can't imagine so many fans moaning about the fee would have missed it if so?

    I think he said "Who pinned this?", and unpinned it right after.
    Might of just been an accident or he's being a bit cheeky.
    I am pretty sure a professional footballer on a decent contract has others also working on their social media (maybe as well as themselves) so might not even be Campbell. 
    not on a live stream tho

    Wonder if we triggered something this summer when it was clear our valuation wouldn’t be me

    Dont remember that extension being announced last year, but good we won't lose him on a free next summer
    Wonder then why it took so long to find him a loan move, even if the intention was to sell

    The original announcement of his contract (2024) says it’s until 2027

    Wondered if he’d signed a new deal before going out on loan to Walsall but nothing in the announcement about it

    He would be okay I guess if you just wanted him as someone who can cover a few positions in a pinch. But wouldn't see it as an exciting or progressive transfer compared to someone like Rak-Sakyi.

    I very much doubt anything is going to happen today. The final day of the window is traditionally a damp squib for us Charlton fans but we live in hope.
    I think we will see eight players move (in or out) before 11pm tomorrow. The fax will be smoking.

    This now makes a lot more sense all around with the contract situation.

    Ok great move for Kanu. Where are we now with squad registration limit? I know some of you have live spreadsheets going

    As said, all makes sense now. The Club would have saved about 30 pages on this thread if they’d announced that when signed. A loan is best for him, and us. If he has a good season we’ll either get a decent fee next summer or he comes back into the squad, which I think unlikely but we’ll see.

    Despicable isn't it... the club and CL Towers in cahoots so the latter get more Ad Revenue for their quarterly piss up

    What the fuck have we all been talking about then?!
    They chose not to announce that extension last summer for some unknown reason.

    I literally looked up Kanu's contract article yesterday just to be sure and it said 2027. No mention of an optional extra year.

    Not the first time this has happened right? Didn’t Leaburn have a secret year triggered?
