    Steven Alzate signed from Leyton Orient

    Yes, I saw he'd come on as a substitute - but not played since then, and I think he missed a game or two before that one (and the last one he played in he was subbed off). Ouch!

    That's bad news - wonder when it happened. He's hardly played since early December.

    Steven Alzate signed from Leyton Orient

    I agree the DS is probably better than it was ten, twenty or thirty years ago. It's just our reluctance to promote them, or even put them on the bench for a ten minute run out when we were 3-0 down (or even if we are three nil up!). I get the feeling that if we had Deli Ali, he'd still be...

    So, not very often then.................and I wonder if the fees received actually covered the investment we'd made, wages and facilities, etc. Cook went for £150K apparantly, Elphick for 'reputedly six figures' - so, less than a million then. JFK to Charlton? - probably not megabucks either...
