Similar to when Cousins left, and his teammates tweeted their congratulations. At an earlier game this season I was looking at Holmes and thinking about how he alone looked like a proper Charlton player, with his pugnacious attitude and physical bravery. The sort of player Curbs would have signed. Good reason for him to leave what Roland has reduced Charlton to.
If Holmes wants out then Erhun Oztumer from Warsaw would be ideal replacement... his contract runs out in the summer, he was a Charlton youth player, brought up in Greenwich and his work rate from midfield is up to Holmes level.
When we beat Walsall at their place last season our fans were laughing when he came on. He is skilful but undoubtedly the shortest footballer I have ever seen. I have lit cigar matches that are longer than his legs
Ryan Fraser's 5'4" and he's playing in the PL. Scored a couple of cracking goals last time I saw him. 5'3" is 5'8.5" btw. And he's proud of the half inch too.
