He will strengthen our squad, but not our XI. So I'm not overwhelmed by this signing.

Jeez, this really is the message board for moaners.
Apparently it's his height that is the key issue, not the fact that he's played much of his time in the Championship.

Will do a solid job in League One.
Not sure what some members where expecting with the new owner, to sign Pirlo straight away?

Hi , Charlton Fan here , Surprised at many of the Negative comments surrounding Bradley's transfer . In our League one winning season that saw us reach 101 points Pritchard was a key Cog in the machine. Not only does Bradley give his all , but at league one level he is a very good all round midfielder. Although he is 5'7 I've rarely ever seen him lose a header. If Pritchard has one flaw it is his finishing , although he bombs forward he very rarely finds the net. I for one am Suprised we released Bradley and still thought he could've been a good squad member for us in the championship. Bradley Pritchard is an excellent signing for you , and one you should be looking to make seeing as your promotion candidates this year . Good luck next season  |

Good luck next season Hi LondonAddick, Thanks for that message. Good to know. Some people seem to think Orient got taken over and have suddenly become AC Milan overnight. Have a good season and we hope to hear from you again on here. |

A bloke at work is a Charlton fan and he said he will be a good signing for us and he wanted him to stay at Charlton.

Good luck next season Thanks for your kind words and thanks for registering on here. Being from South London and practically living next door to Millwall i have a fondness for Charlton. I'm not on a downer about Pritchard, he seems to fit right into the mould of a Russell Slade type player. Hard-working and got a point to prove. I think the lack of enthusiasm was just down to not being a 'name' player. Questions for you if you're still around.. 1. Heard anything of the Vincelot rumour? Would you be happy with him? 2. As a club that has recently been taken over by foreign owners, have you seen much change? 3. Any further news on what happened with Alnwick? |

The one thing you'll get from Pritchard is 100% every week , Runs from the first minute to the last. Sure 1/10 games he'll probably have a stinker , but in return you get 9 professional performances , In regards to your question : 1. I've only heard that we've expressed interest in Vincelot , nothing more , I've seen him a couple of times and he looks a solid pro capable of making the step up , I was hoping you could also give me some insight as to what type of player he is 2.. The foreign ownership hasn't brought significant change , the main factor is that we are now a Network club , much like Watford we now Import a lot of foreign cheaper talent , which has its pros and cons , the pleading thing though is that our owner is Intent on keeping the Clubs history etc , no ground , kit or name changes , that's the only possible issue I could see occurring 3. Not sure as to Alnwick, was our best keeper before we sold him to you in mysterious circumstances , always rated him , just understand he's had many personal issues through his career , Rumours of adult tapes, drugs etc , I know he had family problems but that was the last I heard , hope that helps |

Vincelot is your box-to-box all-action ball-winning midfielder. We'd be absolutely devastated to lose him, cult hero and all that.
I think he could cut it in the Championship and was probably short-changed at Brighton by all their coming and goings.
Paired alongside a creative midfielder he would be most effective.

Good signing IMO and fits into the team mould. I heard from a good source that he was out of favour and didn't get a look in after he suggested passing standards in the U21's was better than in the first team.
Not a trouble maker, but had an opinion which didn't fit with those making the decisions.
