Seen a bit of twitter talk linking us with this lad, nothing remotely reliable but the thought of him and Koroma rekindling a previously successful partnership is interesting

I would be happy with that but Charlton definitely won't want to sell

Has been dreadful for Charlton so far this season.
And that’s in the league below.
We should be doing better than Macauley Bonne.

Plus I've backed him to be League 1 top scorer, so it's a definite no from me, ta

Swansea, QPR & PNE supposedly interested in signing the lad.

He's yet to score in the league this season but whoscored have given him an average rating of 6.34 which doesn't seem quite as 'dreadful' as you're making out? I take it you saw the goal he scored in the league Cup v Swindon? Brilliant control to bring it down on the edge of the area before slotting it in the bottom corner. The lad scored 11 goals last season in the Championship, which was as many as Mounie & Campbell combined in far less minutes. But of course, being a regular viewer of Charlton this season, you know best. It's not like you're renowned for making up bollocks on here is it 🤔

It's not like you're renowned for making up bollocks on here is it 🤔 With Town playing last Friday, I watched the Lincoln vs Charlton game at the weekend with my mate. Bonne was completely anonymous throughout, and according the Charlton fans, he has been all season in the league (not sure why you brought league cup into it). He’s not good enough for Town, in my opinion. Sincerest apologies that my opinion differs to yours.

I watched him for 90 mins last week and the Charlton fans, who watch him every week, have said so far this season he’s been a waste of space. Based on that, I just don’t see him being good enough for us. If people want to judge players on their whoscored rating then we’re in dire straights!

Way back, I was "championing" Bonne as he scored regularly for Orient as they fought their way back into the Football League after being relegated out a few years ago. I reckoned that we could have had him for a million, easily. But others said that he wasn't really that good and that Koroma was the better player because he was a grafter who could create as well as score. Time has shown that to be the correct - Bonne has struggled to make any kind of impact at all at Charlton, whereas Koroma has begun to show some really good form for Town.

Campbell scored three goals last season and Ward's never been a prolific goalscorer. If the club has any ambitions beyond being perennial strugglers then a regular goalscorer is a must.

We may only have Campbell currently fit but I would rule out seeing a bit of Kieron Phillips this season if he progresses like the club hope we may not need a striker we do however need players to play the wide positions of the three

Agreed, with Ward and Campbell as our senior strikers and Phillips and Harratt hoping for minutes this season, bringing in another striker would make it impossible to keep them all happy. If we only sign one more player this window it has to be a wide attacker.

Think it does show that the old guard transfer committee are still using the same pool of agents as they always have ,prior to our signing of Grant we were definitely looking at signing Bonne or so the papers intimated ,not sure if he was at Orient or Charlton at that point ,was deffo being mooted though

Even if... hang on... they’re not actually all at the same club? And this mighty example of reasoning is being used as a stick to beat the club with for having a lazy “old guard transfer committee”. Wow.

If we only sign one more player this window it has to be a wide attacker. You seem to counting numbers of players and I am counting the number of goals. Nothing wrong with the players we have but there are just not enough goals in them for me. We expect to have sold the players that scored nearly all of the goals we got last year, so it is a big concern where they will come from this year. Only 1 so far. I believe that it would be better to give Phillips and Harratt a season in the 1st division they would get a lot more game time with them than stopping with us. That is if we keep our crop of strikers fit that is.

Sure someone posted up on here that Wards goals per minute record was better than grants last season . Cant recall whether it was including grants pens or not. Dont think theres any doubt that as soon as grant goes we'll be trying to bring in a replacement and Id imagine most of the ground work for that has already been done with at least one target. Ou problem might be if he doesnt go, because judging by his performances post xmas last season, he's barely worth playing with the attitude he seems to have.

His goals to minutes ratio was one of the best in the league for players that scored 5 or more goals. He's definitely a solid back up but if he spends too much time on the treatment table we surely can't just rely on Campbell & the youngsters to provide the goals we need.

Ward's goals per minute record might be better but given the fact that he only scored 12 in 68 games for Cardiff and 19 in 94 games for Rotherham would suggest that he's either injured a lot or that his form has been poor. His record does not suggest that he'll ever be a 20 goals a season man.

More concerned with his minutes per game record currently

do you remember Liverpool having a super sub, he probably scored more goals to minutes than anyone. He did not make many first team starts if my memory is correct. It comes down to Lies, Dam Lies and Statistics. As a sub playing a few min in a game against a tired team you should have a good goals to min ratio.
I believe that numbers only tell you so much, at the end of the day you have to see players in the flesh to make a decision.
