Big backwards step. I'm reading the deal with Sheff Weds fell apart because West Ham wanted a 50% sell on clause, which would be ludicrous if true. They (WHU) have screwed him out of a Championship move if that's the case, and condemned him to at least 18 months in L1. Silver lining is he's very good at L1 level & will hopefully help push Charlton up. They have new owners since the summer. Hopes for an Ireland call up are likely at least 2 years away now. Can see the likes of Connell getting an upward move this summer, and hopefully Hodge gets a decent loan.

Ya a bit of an underwhelming move for him. At least he will get playing, hopefully.
I thought he would have gotten a Championship move given he did ok at Rotherham. He won't be considered for the Ireland set up if he is playing mid-table League One because there are enough midfielder ahead of him playing in the Championship or higher. This would have been a better move 3 years ago for him, not so much now.

Not the only Irish person joining Charlton today, Curtis Fleming has been announced as their new assistant manager.

Any move whereby he's playing every week is a good move. The chap is nearly 24.

Yeah it's a disappointing move alright. From the outside looking in it seems to me Charlton probably beat off other teams given he won't have to relocate since they're only down the road from where he lives.

And they're mid table. At least when he joined MK Dons they were challenging for the league.

Looks like he is joining Charlton in League 1 on a permanent deal. Disappointing enough move although he will at least play. Feels like just more evidence of how much time he has wasted, he proved he was good enough for that level 2 or 3 years ago.

Would be most interested in him going to Netherlands if it's a decent club. He shouldn't be entertaining talks with League 1 clubs, he already proved himself above it with his spell at MK Dons & then helping Rotherham stay in the C'ship last season. Wednesday are in a relegation battle, but maybe have turned things around a bit in the last month (4 wins in 7). Maybe he could force a loan, and then see about a free transfer in the summer.

Linked with a permanent move to Sheffield Wednesday. Supposedly some interest from other clubs in the championship, League One (Charlton were named), and Netherlands.

Coventry has 4 loan spells under his belt a handful of appearances for West Ham, his CV is grand. He'll likely get a Championship move in January.

We're decent enough..

That sort of thinking only works if you think you are sh*t and think you are going to be found out. His contract will run out and his cv is sh*te. Playing games makes you more likely to earn money over the course of your career

Especially when his West Ham contract runs out and he has no bargaining power with potential clubs because he's played so little by the age of 23/24. It's far more detrimental to his long-term earnings than if he had moved a year or two ago.

they've played 15 matches this season and the grand total of his involvement has been making the bench 4 times with the last time being a month ago. as mentioned he would get similar or better wages elsewhere and certainly would if he went to a championship team and played well. look for example at josh cullen.
