Shame we aren't playing on the same playing field as some other teams, let alone it being level.
Last night Fulham had Ross McCormack upfront & QPR had Charlie Austin. Lunchtime game being played now MK Do9ns have Nicky Maynard & Derby just took off Chris Martin & replaced him with Darren Bent.
and we have a couple of 18 year olds who have hardly played 10 games between them to come on.
PS - As I type Bent has just scored the winner................
Can't get a start upfront or on the left although his performances so far haven't warranted one.
Good luck to Josh Umerah and to Moussa.
C'mon Charlton
From the minute he came on vs Hudds and immediately cut in on his right foot I knew he was going to be a poor signing.
The kid must have something to be rated by Everton but he looks totally the wrong player for us. As a striker he's another small nippy type of which we have several when we need another big lump to help Mak out. As a left winger he's another cut inside job when we need a touch line hugger to balance out the fact that JoBerg always narrows the pitch by cutting in on the other side.
Dunno who picked him but his signing, for me, has the hall marks of some the ill judged early Roland transfer fiascos.
The way Miller played against us for Huddersfield, you suspect that our centre backs will struggle against Kenwyne Jones who's a similar sort of player
Interesting line up. Is this the first time we've played 4-5-1 this season?
Apart from swapping Sarr for Diarra, this is the same side as started vs Blackburn.
I should add, it wasn't all that effective, although there were a couple of times that JoBerg nearly managed to thread a killer through ball.
Great too Moussa back. Getting him fully fit and on form might, might, just offer a solution to our left side problem.
Only Cardiff dont have a Jordan Rhodes / Dwight Gayle type player which our Defence is struggling against this season
Well if we play the way we did vs Blackburn they could beat us with XI welsh vallies grandmas. Jordan Rhodes didn't somehow evaporate our ability to trap a bag of cement or complete a 5 yard pass accurately. That wasn't the formation's fault either though. If the players sharpen up a bit this team is still good enough to get something from the game, I'm certainly not throwing in the towel.

Thought Bauer did alright but you're right, Sarr didn't have a clue how to handle Miller. Depends which Jones shows up though, he's not exactly consistent, but is a proper handful on his day.
Umerah on the bench is a pretty big event in it's own little way.

When the Red Red Robin Goes bob bob bobbin’ Along, along, There’ll be no more sobbin’ As he keeps throbbin’ His old, sweet song, Wake up! Wake up, you sleepy head. Get up! Get up get out of bed. Cheer up! Cheer up, the sun is red. Live, love, laugh and be happy!
What if I feel blue? I’ll go walking through Fields of flowers. Rain may glisten, but still I listen For hours, and hours. I’m like a kid again, Doing what I did again, Singing this song, When the Red Red Robin Goes bob bob bobbin’ along!

Good to see Moussa again. Another one who has been injured for so long. Seems the Charlton mantra nowadays. Something just doesn't feel right.

I've done it and it's just this minute kicked in.

When the Red Red Robin
Goes bob bob bobbin’
Along, along,
There’ll be no more sobbin’
As he keeps throbbin’
His old, sweet song,
Wake up! Wake up, you sleepy head.
Get up! Get up get out of bed.
Cheer up! Cheer up, the sun is red.
Live, love, laugh and be happy!
What if I feel blue?
I’ll go walking through
Fields of flowers.
Rain may glisten, but still I listen
For hours, and hours.
I’m like a kid again,
Doing what I did again,
Singing this song,
When the Red Red Robin
Goes bob bob bobbin’ along!
