http://www.cafc.co.uk//news/article/2016-17/charlton-athletic-new-signing-adam-chicksen-3279974.aspx Was near confirmed last night - but confirmed today. Gills on twitter weren't overly keen on him, but he's a squad player. Unless Fox is sold before tomorrow.
The annoying thing I can see, with all these transfers, is we're replacing long-term players with short term contracts. Whilst the long-term players we don't want (Naby, etc) we cannot get rid of.
Either the board are confident of promotion in which the dead weight can be shifted easily, or RD is eyeing a sale of the club and cashing in on assets.
Sadly think it's the former but we live in hope. Meanwhile, Chicksen may be okay- we certainly need to fill out the squad, and while I didn't agree with selling THD, he wanted out by all accounts and this guy should be fine as a squad player.
Squad player. Chris Hughton is not a mug, and was a top class full back himself Comment from a Brighton fan on Twitter- "Chicksen was too lightweight for the Championship"

Bloody Hell, SuperC, not another Fox rumour? Foxy should have his own thread, what with all these rumours. Let's hope it's true, just to put an end to the rumours. Flogging our 2 senior LB's and getting in a freebie reject from another club would be Roland's modus operandi in a nutshell.
Perhaps on a more serious front, Palace are being linked with Lookman again this morning. Today shall be a long day me thinks.
A wise move. Super & Don are currently in negotiations about signing Colin, so we can be first with the high level transfer info.
