What isnt going to help is the fact they'll have to play twice a week for the rest of the season so tiredness could become a factor for them
Not like Grigg or Wyke are scoring either
The ultimate nightmare would be to win all our remaining fixtures and still fail to get top two - it's nor going to happen though.
I want us to win our remaining games regardless as if we miss out on second then we'll go into the Play-Offs as the form team
The nightmare would be that we go into the final day of the season with a chance of going up where goal difference doesnt come into play - Similar to the season we briefly got into second under Parkinson by winning @ Oldham yet falling short because of results turning against us elsewhere
Top 2 aint going to happen. We'll be 4th or 5th come close of play.
Make you right GA. Whilst it's been an incredible season considering the budget LB had and the enforced asset stripping there have been the odd old Charlton performances mixed in between..... Coventry x2, Posh late pen / missed Pen, Luton away, Southend and Blackpool at home.... Sunderland first game of the season... Hopefully we don't come to rue those bad days out in the office. On the plus side I haven't seen us lose this season and going tonight..... (hope I haven't just jinxed us)
Will watch this in Prague on iFollow. Incidentally.....isn’t there a pub with strippers and pole dancers somewhere near the stadium? Seem to remember it was enthusiastically visited and got five star rating by a few Addicks on a couple of occasions in the not too distant past......not sure if it’s still going though?

So if we win tonight and Sunderland draw, what is your view then?
We will be incredibly fortunate to finish in the top 2. Whilst we're playing incredibly well at the moment, realistically cannot see it. If the roles were reversed I'd be saying we'd have to royally mess up to concede an automatic spot....

Goldfingers in Prague is a bit more up market than the White Horse in High Wycombe.
We're making a day of it, so about to set off to Marylebone. Wycombe doesn't sound as if it's got too many cultural highlights - Benjamin Disraeli's former gaff, Hughenden Manor, is a bit out of the way on foot and I think we'll pass on the Hellfire Caves and the Wycombe Chair Museum. The latter is described by one punter on Trip Advisor as " the most boring day out you could ever achieve in your life. Want to go look at some ugly brown chairs stuck to the wall, well step right up.... the world's most rubbish day out, if you have insomnia, go. This place it will bore you to tears so much you will sleep on the spot.." Not someone to sit on the fence.
I see from Wiki that, for a town of only 125,000, High Wycombe has had some notable past and present residents, such as Ian Dury, James Corden, Dusty Springfield, Colin Baker, Frankie Vaughan, the Mitford family (presumably in 1,000 acres on the outskirts), Terry Pratchett, Jean Shrimpton, Colin Baker, Noel Fielding and last, but by no means least, the great Simon Church.
We're hopping off the train a stop early at Beaconsfield for lunch and a few pints at The Royal Standard of England, a historic pub reputed to have been there for a thousand years - http://www.rsoe.co.uk/ There's also a nice circular walk of a couple of miles by the pub. We'll then hop back on the train one stop to High Wycombe and take in the Mad Squirrel Tap & Bottleshop and maybe The Bootlegger or Belle Vue near the Station. Nearer the ground, I see there is the Hour Glass, but I expect that will get very busy, along with the bar at the ground.
A new ground for me and, in terms of current form, the portents for this game are good. That usually makes me nervous, although I have a lot of confidence in this group of players and the grit that Bowyer and Jacko have instilled in them.
I'm making a day of it too, but walking in the Chilterns north of Wycombe. Currently having lunch in a pub in Saunderton!
Igor to score a Reza vs leeds style peach in the last 5
I'd settle for one half as good as that goal. Having given him stick first half for a lacklustre performance I was positioned right behind that shot and dumbstruck when he hit it; goal written all over it when it left his boot. Think that was the night when Hamer also pulled of a worldy save in the dying minutes to give us a crucial three points. COYRs

Disagree, they only need one slip up if we can win all ours... still unlikely but they should win tonight but not bankers just yet.

You say that but last 5 home games only reveal 1 point
Ever the optimist....
It isn't impossible, I agree unlikely but you never know
The White Horse
Classic Charlton
We should win, but if Wycombe come out fighting it’ll be closer than people expect.

The hunt for the top 2 continues tonight.
