Interesting seeing them outgoing fees. I didn’t realise we paid £150k for Dixon. Might see him in a Charlton shirt after all!

If we really had owners up for it and with money, Caleb Taylor would be playing for us and not Wycombe. Jones not liking loans hasn't helped. Many players move for location maybe London don't suit him.The only mistake was Dobson to Turkey via Wrexham but we move on with Coventry was also £1m. Turkey? Is Dobson going on holiday? Or is it Christmas already? |

Turkey via Wrexham? Fuck me not exactly Judith Chamers are you? It was Wrexham via Hungary and by the way Coventry never cost a penny so dream on..... Richard Cawley, of the London News Online, has said that the Addicks didn't have to pay West Ham a transfer fee in order to acquire Coventry, and that the only fee-related part of the deal that was included was a sell-on percentage.9 April 2024. |

Reams you ignore the fact our owners have spent £23m or more on Charlton including buying the club.
£11m for the club and at least £12m in losses.

For what it’s worth, I’m really looking forward to watching the Birmingham/Wrexham game tomorrow night. Whether it will be a definite indicator as to how the season will pan out or just an early season joust for bragging rights is open for debate.
Any predictions for the result?

Why do buinessmen spend what you say they have but then don't stump up enough to create a squad good enough for promotion? Flip-Flop. |

Hope this doesn't happen. I still don't rate his attacking style that much, but I do like that he has started to add a bit fight in the team, something we have missed for a long time.

Why do buinessmen spend what you say they have but then don't stump up enough to create a squad good enough for promotion? Flip-Flop. We're in the top six right now and opinions are divided as to whether / how long we stay there. The club have spent according to a budget set some time back and it's now time for the management and squad to deliver. We all know that the future depends upon promotion to the Championship, but let's make a fair appraisal after ten games. And let's see how we look around Christmas once every team has played 20 matches. Plus we should have Leaburn and Edwards available. Can the club attract more revenue via sponsors and fans attending? And will we improve our attacking threat? Ideally Jones sticks it out to deliver this next phase, and make this the most successful season since 2018/19. And once he delivers the improvements, then ideally the club finds cash for a couple of additions. Once again, why nail down predictions to automatic promotion or mid-table failure? We aren't scoring twice per game, neither are we letting in two or three every Saturday. |

I agree Andy. I have fare better things to do than waste my time on a 15 year old.
My final say on this is yes I think they will within the next two seasons including this one.
Americans won't throw money at failure and if we don't go up in the next two seasons that's exactly what it will be.

We aren't scoring twice per game, neither are we letting in two or three every Saturday. I do worry about getting more fans through the door when the football is so horrible to watch. We have had a fantastic start to the season, results wise, but it’s still tough to watch us. If our luck turns and we go on a run of draws and/or defeats, playing like we have been, the fans could all turn their backs on the team. We need to remember that, despite boasting about how cheap we are - buying a season ticket in the cheap seats, some tickets are £35 this season. Crap football and winning is going to be ok but if a small change happens and we go from winning 1-0 to losing 1-0 £35 is going to seem like a lot of money when so many people are feeling the pinch. |

This are the actual fees spent on players. Mitchell 225k, Gillesphey 100k, Edwards 100k, Ahadme 760k, Godden 300k, Dixon 150k, Ramsay 160k. So £1.75 million out since January and 760k in from Alfie = net transfer spend of £1 million. Wrexham have spent just over that but have options all over the pitch and have goals coming from absolutely everywhere. They have at least three who will get into double figures this season....we don't. My point is for an outlay of 1m, don't you think that it could/should have been invested in more attacking players, I know I do. If you have spent 1m at this level but haven't quite got the balance of the squad right then to do so you have to spend more but we don't have the funds. Parkinson would never go out and buy players who weren't better than he already had. We have. May is better than Godden and Dobson was better going forward than Berry and Docherty. Sitting 2nd in the table is a totally false position in my opinion because we all know we aren't the second best team in the league. I may be mistaken, but did you not say Godden was an all round better player than May when we signed him Reams? Have you now changed your mind? |

To be fair we weren’t playing 5-3-2 when Alfie scored most of his goals. Five at the back and two pivots is always going to make us less likely to concede but much less likely to score. |

To be fair we weren’t playing 5-3-2 when Alfie scored most of his goals. Five at the back and two pivots is always going to make us less likely to concede but much less likely to score. I was going to point out the same. We might have been weaker overall but we actually attacked quite well. It was the fact that we commited too many forward when our defence wasn't capable enough. So Alfie had far more chances to convert than he would have had if he was still here. |

I’ve got to say I’m amazed at people wanting to move Jones on. He’s made mistakes (not that many) and that was terrible yesterday but he’s head and shoulders over anyone we’ve had in recent years. I’d definitely back the geezer to get it right. That being said, big changes are needed going forward in approach or personnel, or both!
