POST-MATCH THREAD: Charlton Athletic v Norwich City: Saturday 24th October 2026: KO 12:30
Four changes today for this early kickoff against visitors Norwich City. Charlie Kelman, Joe Rankin-Costello, Josh Edwards, and Sonny Carey make the starting eleven. Norwich are in a poor run of form, as are Charlton, so this was likely to be a cagey affair. Charlton seemed to have lost the toss and Norwich turned them…

2026-27 CL Prediction League Week 9 Fixtures
When I was about 7, my Dad took me on a weekly visit to Blackheath, where we used a couple of jumpers as goalposts and played 'three goals and in'. The rules were simple: once I scored three goals, I took my turn in goal, and vice versa. When it came to sport, my Dad was enthusiastic, although I never lived up to his…

Managerial sackings, comings and goings
The October international break is clearly a chance to wield the axe First Di Matteo gets the push from Villa, and now Guidolin has been replaced at Swansea by Bob Bradley To me it all seems terribly early in the season to make changes...For reference, we sacked Dowie on the 13th November…

I am going to say it!! Yes I am, Nathan Jones......................
Out!!!! yes I said it and I don't care. Shit negative football, making 4-6 changes every game tell us he is desperate and has no clue. Dropping decent players who have played well for no reason. Horrible little manager with no clue whatsoever. How have we come into the season with no attacking midfielders and no wingers.…

To be able to be reunited with him on a permanent deal I'm delighted with. "He's very, very comfortable on the ball and knows his position really well. He's…

Owners- Short arms & Long pockets..........or no pockets?
Touching on my comment on the post-match thread (Watford), I'm curious to what others think are the reasons our board haven't invested in the squad sufficiently over the summer? Is it down to they simply can't afford to? Rumours about their wealth seem to go against this, so is it just that they simply don't want to invest…

Who should be captain?
In my opinion Lloyd Jones isn’t a captain in the true sense of the word. I want my captain cajoling players, bawling at players when necessary, a quiet word in their ear and encouraging when needed.
