It looks like the vaunted Linvoy Primus deal was not signed and sealed when announced at the weekend. Portsmouth have refused to allow Primus to come to the Valley for longer than January and Charlton clearly want (and need) better value than getting him fit and playing again so he can saunter back into Harry's squad.
This is a real disappointment bearing in mind all the shilly-shallying with Portsmouth so far in terms of their other squad centre-halves. It's equally galling when they clearly got what they wanted quickly enough in signing Jerome Thomas. That was our best chance to leverage a loan player and it looks like we blew it. I can't remember this ever happening under Sir Peter Varney. Mr Waggott's programme notes against Wolves will make interesting reading assuming he doesn't break his MO so far in terms of using any other channel of communications. It is interesting to note that the Club website has consciously upped it's level of output during the Summer yet manages to remain silent on anything it can't blow it's trumpet about. We need a bit of balance - perhaps the Chairman is preparing another missive?
