First i've heard of it.

 

I reckon he'll move on to a championship team. (although same could have been said of Lambert...)

 

Where have you heard this btw?

 

You're not making friends with the Gills fans now are you?? :D

No =( i think i have learnt my lesson even though i think they would be friendlier than charlton fans who wanna beat me up.

 

Just afew different saints fans on other forums.

Id heard a rumour of this from my mate who supports Gillingham, though didnt think much of it! Ive seen Jackson play a few times when watching Gillingham last season and he is very over rated IMO although seems to find the net alot he seems to miss just as many!

I often think this is the key to a good striker, even Wayne Rooney will miss quite a number. Getting into the position to score more often means that you will score more than another player who gets into position less frequently, stands to reason really!

 

Therefore it will appear that they miss more - Ian Wright was another classic example, many fans felt he missed far too many but look at his stats and it will only tell you how many they scored not how many they missed.

Misses as many as he scores? You mean he should have scored eight goals already this season in two matches rather than just four?

 

You're right we don't want any player like that ;)

Be surprised if we got Jackson but wouldn't completely rule it out. Our new owners have already pulled a rabbit out the hat by signing Lambert so who's to say that Jackson won't follow?

Seems Pardew only wants players we are linked with Lambert / Murty / Jackson

 

oi Alan, apparently Parky wants to re-sign Izale and Martin Christensen to new contracts......

 

Where Charlton ever linked to any of them players? Murty was here before Pardew was appointed on a trial but I never heard about Charlton being after Lambert - They can't afford him.. surely?

Posted

I see Charlton have said they are interested, am I right in thinking they have money problems at the moment? Surely Gills will look at what we paid for Lambert and shove a million price tag on the bloke?

Cardiff, Derby, QPR and Sheffield United are all chasing Gillingham striker Simeon Jackson. (Daily Mirror)

 

Why would anyone sign for Premiership wannabees when they could play for an upwardly mobile bottom-of-the table league 1 club?

On -9!:)

 

Quite literally the only way is up!

 

(unless a side on zero points goes into administration ine the next 24 hours and then wins on Saturday while we lose, in which case we could drop a place tomorrow)

Drat!! Hadn`t thought of that!:(

I noticed somewhere on another thread that Pardew was being quoted as saying he could have signed a younger striker for the same money, but chose Lambert.

 

At that price logic would suggest Jackson may have been the younger man in question, but Pards went with proven experience...

I think he means Tom Craddock at Luton.

Not at a million pounds I don't think he does!

 

Jackson and Lambert were the two standout strikers in L1 and each would probably have cost about that figure to prise away from their clubs.

 

Pardew may well have inquired about both and chosen Rickie...

Luton were after a large fee for Craddock. Although they are in the conference they don't have money worries.
