CAFC set to sign Rotherham United full-back Ben Purrington. For £200000. Good move, played well last season.

Good move, but Purrington returning does not make Charlton's squad any stronger than it was in the second half of last season, it just prevents it from getting weaker. Granted, having Purrington on a permanent deal (two years at least hopefully) will be better than having him on loan, at least from Bowyer's point of view.

As an aside, if Duchatelet remains as CAFC owner next season (which I fully expect) then Lyle Taylor will be sold in January.

Purrington has signed, for 3 years (£200,000 apparently) <ok>

That fills an important part of our defensive jigsaw.
As mentioned before I don't see Purringtom making Charlton better than we were in the second half of last season. But he is a known quantity, very reliable and his presence again does not weaken us.

A three year deal is good for future stability too with any luck. Assuming RD doesn't get temped to cash in later.
 
No new players signed this week?

Or is there going to be a dramatic early evening announcement... :emoticon-0160-movie
 
You can't let young players run their contracts down. If you are in the last year of your contract and you won't sign another you should be sold.
