What a dizzying day Friday was and it wasn't even deadline day. Let's have a round up. 2 strikers in. Cameron Jerome on a free from Luton on a one and a half year deal and Victor Adeboyejo from Burton on a three and a half year deal for a reported £500000. Out Kieran Sadlier on loan to Leyton Orient. He will be back at the end of the season as he has a year and a half to go on his contract. Also will Aimson for an undisclosed fee to Exeter. Now we have a match. Charlton away 12.30 kick off in front of the sky cameras. Bolton after an epic 1-0 win with 10 men against forest green on Tuesday are 5th with a 6 point gap from 7th. Charlton under ex Bolton defender dean Holden are 14th and have won their last 3 games. The valley has been a reasonable hunting ground down the years. Memories of premier league clashes, Sam allardyce v Alan curbishley, Youri Djorkaeff goals, mark Davies career ending injury and a Kieran Lee inspired 4-1 win last season are the memories that stand out. Team news. Bolton have both Jerome and adeboyejo available as well as Charles after having his sending off against forest green overturned. Unavailable. Kachunga banned for 3 games, loan signing nlundulu and long term Thomason, Bodvarsson and Iredale. One game then possibly more incomings and outgoings by the deadline on Tuesday.
Ins: Randell Williams, Dan Nlundulu, Shola Shoretire, Cameron Jerome, Victor Adeboyejo.
Outs: Amadou Bakayoko, Dapo Afolayan, Owen Beck, Kieran Sadlier, Will Aimson.
Charlton v Bolton/Transfer Deadline Day

Wasn't expecting Trafford to be at Bolton next season but didn't expect him to be city number 2 either. Going to need 2 new keepers in the summer with dixon gone too.

I've still got a new keeper and Dixon out, on my shopping list.
I'll give it a while yet to see if there's free one available somewhere.
If one doesn't arrive by March, I best throw the list away and start a new one ready for the summer of fun.

I think the bald one is stalking us on here.
That above last post of mine on the keeper shopping situation.
Not for the first time of late, the Ben respond sometime later mentioning the exact same subject.
Let's wait and see who comes down with something overnight and is missing tomorrow.
That should confuse them.

Didn't I say something yesterday morning to confuse the Ben.

Cameron Jeromeon on being patient when trying to break down teams.
"Can you find another way of playing or have the patience to wait?
It might take until the 89th minute and you might nick a 1-0 win, but those three points could make a massive difference come to the end of the season."
That might have been why we lost the game 1-0 at
their ground earlier in the season.
I would much rather we went out to get the early goals which may find holes appearing in their defence so that we can score more goals.
I sincerely hope that the team isn't too patient and go for it from the start.
We should be able to beat Cheltenham, The defence has to be on top form and the forwards need to take their chances when they come. That's something that has been lacking but hopefully, our new frontmen will put that right.
