Jerome signs three year contract

Jerome Thomas has signed a new three year contract at The Valley, a decision welcomed by the Addickted. The winger commented, 'I've had a chat with the manager and I like the direction he's trying to take the club so I'm looking forward to it.'

The club has announced that it has bought back 120,000 shares on the open market at 38p and cancelled them. This is a marginally better price than my wife and I got the other day. Consolidating ownership would give the board greater freedom to pursue any options that might come along. For example, could there at some stage be an injection of Spanish capital?
