Addicks v's Orient (pre-season friendly) Match Thread 23/7/16

Afternoon folks, welcome to today's match thread. It'll be interesting to see what type of team RS puts out and if we have any 'trialists'!! I think we are still desperately short players across the park, - G/keeper, CH, RB, DM, AM, Striker. Just 14 days until we ko the new season against Bury and there is much work to do.
I'll bring as much of the action as I can for those that want it.

    Hi RM how's the old ticker?

    Hi @lancashire lad , I go to hospital on Monday for some tests so they can decide what to try next to keep my heart going. Mrs RM does her parachute jump on Tuesday, and thanks to many on here she has raised over £900. I just hope she comes home safe and sound.

    This deserves a worried response.

    Nicky Ajose and Chris Solly miss out with slight injuries. New signing Andrew Crofts has a dead leg but should be fine for Tuesday

    Solly and Ajose have "knocks" while Crofts has a dead leg.

    No sign of Foley or Buxton?

    Such A weak squad , miles behind on quality compared to 4 years ago . Too reliant on kids , no pace or attacking threat in the centre , and the guy we've actually paid good money for is nowhere to be seen. Just another season Being a Charlton fan.

    Crofts is out injured a day after he signs. You couldn't make this stuff up.

    Where is Buxton and Foley then? I thought we would have taken both of those to strenghten a very weak squad.

    Paper thin squad.

    Only Texeira would get anywhere near the 11/12 team
  • 6 academy players who haven't started a league match for us before.

  • Surely that's the sign they all need in terms of how thin this bloody squad is. I know it's obvious but then you look at that it really hits home

    very, very worried. Squad gets thinner & thinner as every season goes by.

    May go tues night to gauge the team myself - totally different to Welling just 2 weeks ago and the 2nd half team there wasn't the best !!

    odds on relegation.

    Oh dear. At least the apologists have got an excuse if we get beaten.

    3 new signings this week and no more departures or else we really are in trouble

    Is Konsa a full back?

    Where is RCC?

    Bauer, Lennon, Solly, Ajose, Crofts, Lookman all to return soon (we hope) but just shows how thin we are again because we WILL get injuries and suspensions.

    Still 5 weeks to beef up the squad though.

    Id say we need 5/6 more to be honest

    A comment taken from Twitter, makes sad reading-:

    So 2 weeks before the season starts, half our squad are kids and we can only put out 6 subs for a friendly. Keep up the good work #cafc

    And not stop gaps like Crofts- proper first team players
