Market

Terms done: Kayne Ramsay is going

Fee agreed, wages agreed, and Luton Town waiting with a shirt. Nobody at Charlton Athletic is pretending otherwise, and the supporters have stopped asking whether and started asking when.

Squad

A fracture rules Reece Burke out for 74 days

Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Charlton Athletic will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

Market

Will Mannion puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Charlton Athletic, and it is not being withdrawn.

Transfer targets

Leeds United tell Charlton Athletic: Brenden Aaronson is not for sale

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

Match

No end in sight to Charlton Athletic's wait for a win

5 matches now without a victory, and the excuses have worn thinner than the patience. Somebody at Charlton Athletic has to find a result from somewhere.

Player ratings

Conor Coventry goes up and wins it — 7.95

A defender on the scoresheet, which happens rarely enough that everybody in the ground remembers who took the corner. 1 for him, and a mark of 7.95 for the rest of it.

Boardroom

6 academy players handed senior numbers at Charlton Athletic

The morning the pathway stops being a brochure and becomes a team sheet. Most of them will not be here in three years; all of them have already done the hard part, which was getting to today.

Match

Conor Coventry’s goal not enough for Charlton Athletic

Conor Coventry scored, and precious little else went right: 1‑3 to Reading, and a quiet walk to the dressing room.

Squad

A falling-out at Charlton Athletic

Tanto Olaofe and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

In brief
