Transfer Rumour Thread...

If we can't improve on last season we have problems, especially after the players we've brought in during the closed season.

 

Agree completely

 

Couldn't agree more, I'd expect us to challenge, but we now have some genuine championship quality players and further additions Jan/Aug19 should be the aim.

 

Not sure about Charlton, struggling to name a full bench today, and if anyone still thinks the BCAFC ownership is bad then

Be careful what you wish for

 

Sir, I applaud your point here.

 

Mate, our owners are not pulling down trees and I would say Charlton will finish ahead of us at this moment.

 

Rest time again Fordy!

 

surely its pulling UP trees

 

Why? It's a losers point.

Always someone worse of than you.

The aim of life is the do better and aim for more.

Don't look down, look up.

Charlton are better than us even with their problems.

 

Since when did @Fordy117 do anything conventional ?
The lad's OK - Just needs to #believe a little bit more.

 

Sorry Fordy, look at their dealings. Both centre halves gone, plus Magennis, plus keeper to bigger clubs
Incomings... oh dear. A young keeper and a 33 year old midfielder , turned out by Parky. Nowt to right home about

"We're in absolute shambles this pre-season. Just absolutely loads of trialists but very few actual transfers. Injuries to key players have happened with Jake Forster-Caskey, Tarique Fosu (best 2 players probably) and Lyle Taylor out and no loans or anything to cover them. Going to have a load of youth players making up the squad but as we've pretty much sold all our top youth players over the last few years I don't think any of them are particularly special."

That's a direct quote from a Charlton fan I saw this morning. You can act like you know what's going on Fordy but you don't have a clue what you're talking about 99% of the time.

 

Fordy telling someone not to be so negative. This could very well be the end of civilisation as we know it.

 

And still some are critical of our owners because of a lie that rahic picks the team.

 

Another comment from a Charlton fan on the one football forum:

"Our season starts in just over 4 and a half hours and other than our keeper and defence I honestly couldn’t tell you who will be starting.

15 outgoings and only 2 incomings and a side that once again have bundles of injuries mean this is going to be a long, shit season."

It surprises me that a fair few of our fans have them top 6 in their predictions, I think they could struggle. But i suppose we'll know a bit more today as they are on TV at noon.

 

Facts speak for themselves and Fordy has just made himself, with NO help from anyone, to look a reet “know nothing” . No need to call the fire brigade. Two replies and the fires out... whoosh gone!

 

The division looks weaker this year. Apart from Barnsley who may be on par with Wigan, Sunderland are no Blackburn, and Burton don't even come close to competing with Rotherham. Additonally, both Peterborough and Charlton look considerably weaker than last season. There are no excuses not to make the top 6 this season.

 

I think Plymouth and Luton will play a major part in the season.

 

Portsmouth and Oxford will be strong teams as well

 

That is really sad news about Charlton. Yes we have had our own problems but absolutely nothing on this scale. We have to be grateful whatever you think of our owners, they have invested in our team/squad for the up and coming season. New season, clean sheet, c’mn you Bantams.
