Addicks in tussle for Barking boy

Unconfirmed reports claim that Charlton are engaged in a race with Birmingham City to secure the transfer window signature of Hull City's Dean Marney. The 22-year old midfielder was born in Barking and played for Spurs before transferring to Hull fifteen months ago for a fee reported to be in the region of £1m. He has been one of Hull's key players this season, finding the net three times, including a penalty against Palace.

I suppose the speculative season for transfer window stories has now started, but I wouldn't say our first priority was a midfielder. Even with Dickson recalled, we may need more cover up front. We might also wish to secure the permanent signature of Danny Mills.

Agreed Wyn. A striker would be a good idea, and signing of Danny Mills should be priority.

I believe Sodje is a season long loan - correct?

And possibly try to procure Sodje's services? I think he has started to look good in the last couple of games, and the only other centre halves we have appear to be of the long eared variety.

Chicago, Just checked the CAFC website and you're correct. At least that gives Pards a bit longer to make an assessment.
