Alan Pardew wants Norwich midfielder Mark Fotheringham to help lead Charlton back to the Premier League. (Daily Express) Any thoughts? I'd personally be very disappointed with Fotheringham if he moved - he has, after all, been plucked from obscurity by us. Without Peter Grant taking a chance on him, he'd be playing in some obscure league in Europe. Of that I have no doubt.    Report

Sadly Fotheringham is another player like Doc who people either love or hate....personally if we lose him we lose our heart in midfield, hes the club captain currently (whether he will be next year i dont know), hes our key passer in the center of the park and his energy often goes unnoticed. If we lose him i think Roeder has a big task on his hands to bring someone in who has as much heart in the game than he does.    Report

Andy Hughes No 2. plus i think he's an awful captain - doesn't take control of his players on the field and as I said, lacks the vision to keep an eye on the play. if Charlton want him there must be something too him i guess? and if only we could sign Gerrard as a replacement....      Report

Andy Hughes No 2. So Andy Hughes just used to walk around while everyone else was running? Is that what you're implying? That's all kinds of wrong. Andy Hughes ran around chasing shadows and kicking people, whereas Fozzy stays more central, always looking for the ball and keeping the play ticking over with a mixture of short, simple passes and expansive cross-field balls to the flanks. That's one of the most inaccurate comments I've ever seen on here!    Report
