Charlton v Brighton - Pre match views, poll etc

Friend Or Defoe

I'm looking forward to this one! Palace's current situation should make for a great atmosphere, especially as they hate Palace more than us, apparently. Our fans should also be in good spirit after Saturday, the mid week fixtures usually have a decent atmosphere and I expect Brighton to bring quite a few fans.

2-1 Charlton, with an 80th minute winner!

Trying not to get too carried away after the win, Brighton perform against the 'bigger' sides apparantely.

Brighton gave Leeds a good game, I don't see us thrashing them but I am more than confident of victory. 2-1.

3-2 charlton, another reid goal, jackson and bailey with the others

JT

Is Adam Virgo a key player for them? Will be suspended.

brighton are utter chaff which is why they sitting comfortably in the relegation zone with no wins in their last 6 games.we are looking to build and confidence should be up a bit with a win and clean sheet under our belts. playing brighton could not happen at a better time for us. a very convincing win and the poor form we have shown throughout the season will all be forgotten again.

4-0

3-0 FACT

Hope fully stick with the same side as Saturday, think it'll be tight after Brightons performance against Leeds, 2-1 us.

Mike

Wasn't West Ham the last on new years day a while back? atleast i think that was rain!

BigRedEvil

Any win in any way will do

Same team as Saturday. Don't change a winning team.

3-0 Charlton

The Red Robin

I just hope Parky sticks with the same starting eleven. There was a real balance to the side on Saturday and we kept the ball very well.

Not me Johnny bev can't see us losing against this pub side !

Same starting XI, Shelvey to make the bench this time, though.

2-0 to us, both goals coming from loanees again...

(The only slight thing that worries me is the 96 per cent vote here* for a Charlton win. We've seen such hubris before!)

Home win banker then ;-)

Brighton's away record is much better than their home.

Only lost 4 of 16 away, yet 10 of 15 at home. Odd.

It's hardly like a home game for them playing in the middle of a running track!

Feel sorry for their fans, they deserve the new ground.

I was thinking the same. When Racon was blowing, Shelvey would have been a better one for one swap.

The difference being that Semedo is actually capable of playing in the middle of a flat 4-4-2.

Fair point, but still you'd think visiting teams would struggle down there too.

All about opinions. I'd only start Semedo in a midfield 5. Could start if we were playing a diamond 4, which we don't.

Scoham

Can argue Racon, Shelvey and Semedo are all better in a 5 man midfield. None have the all round game so need the right partner in a 4 man midfield. Shelvey will hopefully be very capable playing in a 4 in he future though.
