Left back, Doughty can play attacking LB as he did very successfully at QPR... plus Matt Smith can also cover at left back. Centre Back, Pratley is a very capable cover at CB especially in a back 3 We only needed cover up front if Taylor left... I don't know if you noticed but he didn't leave. Yes, ESI have gambled but Bow is said to be happy so that's good enough for me.
With H.E in town, Bowyer can hardly say different. You are talking about square pegs in round holes. It’s a gamble. I’ll be one of the 7,000 at the Valley in August if we are relegated. Be interesting to see how many of the kids defending ESI last night fancy Accrington.
Perhaps we can discuss it at the Valley today.... will you be bringing @Beware of the Virus for this crunch game?
I sort of respect his obduracy. This takeover has been a very mixed bag so far. The hero worship that Matt Southall is getting on social media is
He's not made a good start. Football supporters do not want to know who the ownership are. Just shut the f*** up and run the club well.
Absolutely. What we want to see is Charlton sticking the ball in the onion bag. There is only a tiny minority who want to ingratiate themselves with the owners. I wonder how Bowyer feels about Southall's social media antics?
I have a feeling that Matt Southall will not be at Charlton for long. Certainly not in his current role.
Actually Bow seems very happy with Matt's performance in January... https://footballleagueworld.co.uk/l...ns-key-piece-of-transfer-business-this-month/
Happy we've kept Taylor, no comment on incoming players. We've got a lot of midfielders now. Albie Morgan should go back out on loan for the season.
