Addicks chase 'Dale striker

London WC1: The lack of a proven goalscorer has been one of Charlton's greatest weaknesses this season and now the Addicks have expressed an interest in 24-year old Rochdale striker Chris Dagnall: Dagnall

Dagnell found the net 20 times last season, but if promoted Rochdale are short of readies, so are Charlton and at the moment Phil Parkinson cannot make a move. It's not so long ago that a cup tie at The Valley was a 'big day out' for Rochdale fans who include my publisher at Manchester University Press.

There are rumours that Johnnie Jackson has signed from Notts County who have just seen a managerial departure, but such a move might depend in part on the injury prognosis for Kelly Youga. Jackson impressed in his loan spell at The Valley.

Parky told me at Exeter he would be making a move for Jackson. He said Jacko is not on big money & he considers him to be a Championship standard player.

His wants to use him in his natural position in midfield rather than at the back. Hope he does sign.
