Injuries forced Nathan Jones’ hand, with Lloyd Jones out through a thigh injury, Nathaniel Chalobah out with a hamstring issue, Miles Leaburn suffering from a concussion, and…

Valley Boot Room(Luke Young's Substack)
I've really enjoyed reading Like Young's Substack. He occupies a niche which is there to be filled, in providing critical tactical analysis of the matches, from the perspective of an experienced professional who knows the game inside and out. The clips which he commentates over are very helpful in assessing players and…

The Under 21s Thread (Match updates and news)
On a personal level it is extremely disappointing that our Under 23's are seeking permission to play their matches at Beckenham Town this season. Although 5 matches will be played at the Valley, that is too far for me to travel. Of course Beckenham is far from being "Charlton heartland", but of course the regime are…

Anyone know of the current whereabouts of Mr Hales? By Tuesday nights and Saturday afternoons I'm a Charlton fan but by day I'm also a second-year journalism student at the University of Kent.

Lloyd Jones 2.0
As the previous Lloyd Jones thread has been closed and doesnt look like its opening up anytime soon, I thought I would start a new one to discuss his current form and potential interest in him. He has been incredible this season and is clearly playing the beat football of his career, which also inevitably worries me about…

Knee trouble
Having a worrying time lately with the joints, especially the knees and feet. I know we have older fans on here and wondered what the collective wisdom is on this.

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.…

The Owners
Think it’s important to remember that they basically gave us the lowest budget in the league. Get why some of the new players are being criticised but do we really think that some of them would have been signed if the owners backed Jones more? Lots of people on here thought that it was a really good transfer window but…

Some of you may be aware that the Porcupine in Mottingham has closed down and been bought by Lidl.

Have Pubs had their day or what?
