4/9/2021 0 Comments Transfer window + Crawley Town On the last day of the transfer window nothing happened until 16:30 when it was confirmed Arter would be joining the Addicks from Forest on loan for the season. Worryingly, the Forest fans even volunteered to pay his cab fare to SE London to ensure he came off their books. A rumour being he was on £30k per week. Other clubs seemed to be moving in on our targets but with much higher offers. Late rumour is that we have secured the signature of Morecambe's skipper, 24 year old centre back Sam Lavelle.
For tonight's pizza cup game Adkins makes 11 changes. I didn't know we had that many players at Sparrows Lane but there is one name missing - Ronnie Schwartz. About time someone fessed up about what is going on? 3 goals up at half time with Lee, Davison and Blackett-Taylor scoring. It ends 6-1 to the Addicks with all our goals coming on the counter. Some good performances from the youngsters with Lee and Davison shining. As the deadline closes there is a press statement from Johnnie Jackson regarding the situation with Ronnie. Seems he has had some personal issues and is behind the curve with his fitness and when his is fit "if he is with the club, he will be involved." Interesting quote. Wednesday morning and it is September - where did August go, it feels like autumn already. We have Sam Lavelle for a 3 year contract and we welcome back on loan Jonathan Leko. No left back but there might be someone out of contract to come in. Perhaps a poor start to the season focused the owners wallet or it is just the way 'business' is completed these days but it was a bit nerve racking. Overall I think we have a good balance of experience and youth with some sensible loans. Let's now see what the manger and his team can make of this squad. COYRs Tauntonaddick
