Forster off to Charlton

[sam86]

What do we know of this Ashley Barnes fella Anyone enlighten me/us

"Despite being born in Bath to English parents, Barnes qualifies to represent Austria courtesy of his grandmother on his father's side, who was born in the country."

Adding to the growing list of different nationalities we have at our club

hmm does Poyet hate Leeds that much? Loan a proven goalscorer to one of their main promotion rivals. That move might just keep Leeds out of the automatic spot

Ashley Barnes of EASTBOURNE BOROUGH fame??

Yeah , 5 goals in 8 appearances.

 

[Colossal Squid]

Not very happy about this.

I have faith in Gus but this is a very bold move.

 

[westy]

f*** sake. G U T T E D.

 

[brightonmark1234]

i feel its a joke and why let him go out on loan and i feel we will miss him

 

[Mendoza]

Yeah , 5 goals in 8 appearances.

Wickerd, Forster goal machine out. Non League strikers Holroyd and Barnes in!!

Just joking, Forster been out of form and Holroyd looks good apart from not having a shot on goal yet

 

[Simster]

So what are the chances of Forster firing the goals to see Charlton into 2nd place above Leeds, Leeds firing Grayson, then Leeds poaching Gus Poyet?




I really wouldn't be a happy bunny if we lost Forster AND Poyet. Not happy at all.

 

[Colossal Squid]

What'll happen with Fozzie's kid? Jake Caskey, right? He's meant to be pretty sharp, no?

 

[Marshy]

Its agood move as far as im concerned if Forsters heart wasnt in it anymore.

Plus id really like to see Holroyd given a go, i think hes a tidy little player who can only improve given a chance.

 

[Dick Knights Mumm]

Hopefully it shows Gus is here for the long term and is establishing his reputation early. Thanks Nicky. I am sure we will miss you on the pitch - but don't cross the manager.

Oh, that's great news! Well done Gus!

 

[seagull_special]

Seems a shame he didn't get a chance to say goodbye to the fans, our most professional player in the last three years and real quality. i am gutted and really hope he does the business for Charlton and gets them promoted. Who would of had money on Murray outlasting Forster this time last year? certainly not me

 

[Rookie]

Feel Forster brought it on himself with the outburst and was no way back. Life goes on

 

[crodonilson]

There's no room for sentimentality in football, it's a good move for him, Charlton and for us.

We're not going down this season, and his contract isn't being renewed so its an opportunity for Gus to try other things out for next season. It gives Nicky a great opportunity at this late stage in his career to play his part in getting another club promotion.

 

[Trigger]

This will turn out to be a good thing, in Gus we trust... When has he ever let us down yet?

I tend to agree however his replacement, not excatly a 'goal machine' is he?

 

[brightonmark1234]

why get rid of a experiance forward go out on loan and get in someone who hasnt even played for plymouth its a joke and now weve got 2 non league forwards to cover murray if he gets banned or injured it might back fire on poyet and hes not even even a proven goal scorer

 

[chinners]

He has played for plymouth

 

[Finchley Seagull]

Well, lets hope this Plymouth chap knows where the back of the net is, 'cos if he doesn't why the f*** have we let our top scorer go to Charlton!?!

Maybe because we are on a good run without him and don't need him any more. I think this is a good sign. In the past we have kept hold of players for a year too long but Forster I believe is going at the right time. I expect we will sign at least two strikers this summer.
