It does seem strange that Alex McLeish would be there as a guest of Murray. McLeish would be a massive upgrade on Robinson.
Couldn’t answer that. It’s not anything new though. Putting 2 and 2 together to probably make 5, KR mentioned recently about having a scout in Scotland. It’s possible Mcleish does a freelance role for one or several clubs. Alternatively he could be scouting Charlton for someone else. Just guesswork though.
Newshopper today - They have been told that Metz want to re-sign Ahmed Kashi, who is likely to leave Charlton this summer anyway. That’s good of him, after we paid him for doing f*ck all for 2 years !
The fact we financed his rehabilitation in Dubai does leave a sour taste somewhere. That said, when he signed he was playing in a Champiknship side that finished mid table prior. He’s now at. League one club who aren’t looking like a promotion candidate in the immediate future, with an owner who’s openly admitted he wants out. It’s not a stable environment, and am I right in thinking the club haven’t opened talks with him yet? Throw in the fact he will probably still be harbouring international ambitions, then I think it’s a safe bet to assume he will move on.
Kashi's a funny one, great in his first 5-6 games of 2015-16 then got injured. People raved about him this season but he fizzled out badly after a few games, he gives the ball away far too often IMO.
All that Kashi, Sarr and Bauer do is remind me of our humiliating relegation farce of 2015-16. It doesn't matter how much or how little each one was involved, it's just how I perceive them. Each of them has played OK from time to time but I feel nothing about any of them, and would not miss them either. The only Duchatelet era player I regret losing was Gudmundsson.
Aaron Barnes has gone to Torquay on loan. That will save Roly another £8 a week. Thoughts @ForestHillBilly @DickPlumb ?
Of course there is a danger that the prospective buyers tell Duchatelet to f*** off with his demands and they walk away.
But if he stays another 6 months the value drops too ? Fewer good players on the books, a smaller customer and revenue base, and even more debt as a result.
