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…

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…

AITA - extension and neighbour situation.
Classic am I the arsehole question. I don't think we've done anything wrong but happy to be corrected on that and welcome any advice on how to operate going forwards. Background: We bought this house almost exactly 5 years ago. It hasn't had much done to it since the 60s or 70s so was always a pretty big project. Did quite…

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.…

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. After he gave away the pen Ouma needed someone saying, keep your head, forget it, keep going. But nothing. The same with…
