  1. Actually keeper is a big concern. An injury or suspension for Krul and our cover looks very weak.

     

    Exactly my point. A couple of Charlton fans I know really rated Elliott but it'd be a big ask of him to fill in for Krul for any length of time. High pressure, that he's never had.

     

    Harper would still be my choice, but would you want to go through half a season with him?

     

     

     

    This is the reason I would have wanted to keep Forster.

  2. We desperately need another centre back as Taylor simply cannot be relied on to stay fit.

     

    It's concerning how much weight he may have put on whilst out. He does have a tendency to pork up.

     

    I would have agreed in the past, however I reckon AP and JC would be on top of that. JC especially will know him well, and will have made sure he kept relatively in shape throughout his down time.

  3. Seems like a promising talent. My only worry is WD being in charge of the Development Squad. Not sure what this fella brings to the table like.

     

    Welcome aboard Biggi.

     

    Here's a question for yer...

     

    Can you imagine after speaking with Donachie actually offering him a contract and employing the bloke? I think I'd barely make it through the small talk before launching myself off of the nearest cliff to escape his nasal Scottish 'paranoid android' drone.

     

    Therefore, we must conclude that oor Willie is one mutherfuker of a reserve team manager and a coach extraordinaire. Yes?

     

    Well I'd like to think that, and you do make a good point. His track record isn't glorious though, and hearing the bloke speak, I can't imagine he'd inspire much confidence in a tree cricket let alone rising football stars from abroad.

  4. Ginola v Ferencvaros

     

    Should be no.1 imo

     

    Top ten or so definitely but i'd put a fair few above it.

     

    Something about that goal that epitomised the side of that era. Ginola's sublime control and deadly finish was as sumptuous as you can get. Loved his celebration as well. How I miss those days. Not that the current lot aren't capable of the same, but we really did have a championship wining team back then.

  5. Would have loved him to stay as a squad player. More than capable imo.

     

    His goal at home to QPR last season was vital to our great run just before Cisse got all up in this motherfucker.

     

    Good luck Bestie son. Always welcome back.

  6. Batty scored a 30 yarder at home against Wimbledon (?) Charvet scored a screamer at boro has Cole's goal v Chelsea been mentioned on the home game (4-2?)

     

    Was just about to post about that.

     

    Sir Les away at Bolton.

     

    Jenas at home to Man Utd
