Good afternoon one and all...and welcome to another season, but not just another season is it, we are CHAMPIONSHIP, and don't it feel just great!!
So today we have our first pre-season warm up game, and we travel to Princes Park Stadium for a nice local kick around with Dartford FC, and I am sure a fair few Addicks will be in attendance to give it some atmosphere.
I suppose the topic of discussion on the terraces will be around how many new recruits will we see today, in a match that will probably have two completely different teams for each half with multiple substitutions/water breaks, and is all about match fitness and whist the win would be nice, just to make sure everyone ends the game in good shape.
So, everyone enjoy the day, stay hydrated with plenty of water, and maybe a hat would be a good idea...

Team news, if I can get any will be up later...
Apparently the OS don't want to put the up line up's...sorry

    My £5 bet is going on FA to be the 1st to say ?
    "Jones out" after a mistake by a newbie 😀

    This is just a gentle warm up game for both sides, I imagine neither have done any serious training with a ball yet.

    The only person I've ever seen take the Dartford friendly seriously was bizarrely Charlie Kirk who went Ape at a misplaced pass to him!
    yeah he wanted the pass to be in Blackpool.

    Dartford will be right down there this season, really important to pick up 3 points in games like this. 

    Head says a tough point away from home, heart says a comfortable away win, UTA, UTA!

    How come Welling are no longer the start of pre season, have they fallen fowl or too right wing?
    It’s been suggested we play Dartford as our u21s play some of their home games at their ground, and we don’t want to play two clubs from that level.

    No official comment, but suspect the fact that one of their trialliasts smashed Miles Leaburn a couple of seasons ago and put him out for months has something to do with it.
    Did the player who crocked Leaburn ever get named? I can only remember him being described as 'a trialist'.

    If we win this do we go top?

    Yeah, they deserve nothing from us, completely set ML back a whole season because of that. It’s stupid playing teams like that where they have players fighting for contracts versus us using it to get fit

    Been trying to figure out what a split 45/45 squad would look like (I assume JRC won't be involved)

    Kaminski
    Burke Jones Gilly

    Ramsay Coventry Doc Edwards 
                          Carey
                     Tanto Godden

    Mannion

    A.Mitchell Z.Mitchell Bell 

    Asiimwe Anderson Fullah Enslin
                         Berry

                  Leaburn TC

    Dartford have a half decent attacking midfielder who was linked with West Ham last season - Olly Box

    youngster.  Got a goal in him too
