    Reading play some nice football and can score goals, we have no threat up front so I see a 0-2 or a 1-2 to Reading
    We were so much better than them at Reading.

    Same team as forever addickted or as we played at brentford. We have the quality to score. 
    The key will be if bowyer has the balls Not to park the bus after going ahead as we aren't good enough to park the bus. 

    Don't park the bus - 2-0 win 
    park the bus after 45 - 1-1 draw

    bows is the key for this game.

    We were better but i remember they were unlucky to score a couple of times maybe missed an open goal and hit the bar?!

    Time for Hemed to deliver. Predicting a double and a reasonably comfortable 2-0 win to settle everyone's nerves...

    Great preview again by the way, @ForeverAddickted - got too carried away with writing my thoughts as they came to me.

    One more from you next week, it's been great to share to responsibility of the previews with yourself.

    They paid the price for being a bit rubbish then ;-)

    It is really time to go for it. Shouldnt sit back on a 1-0, momentum is with us so keep going until comfortable.

    Charlton 2-0

    Bonne and Cullen

    We’re at home against a team who isn’t pushing for promotion. That means we play a back four and Morgan comes into the side. I would assume McGeady comes in too for Williams as I doubt Jonny will be able to start 2 games in quick succession. Unfortunate, as he showed what he adds to us.

    With Aneke only getting a handful of minutes on Tuesday, he will have enough in him to start. As I would anticipate Hemed also pushing hard with being rested in midweek. If Bonne is on the bench, expect him to come on with 30 minutes or so to go.

    Thinking probably a very similar team to the one we have seen us play on the weekend games.

    Shame in a way as I think Sarr deserves to start, his range of passing and control on the ball allows us to keep possession better and build rather than hitting it a bit longer. However, Pearce has been excellent for us since the return and was so close to getting another goal on Tuesday.

    Whatever team selection Bow makes, this is a must win game, and one I feel we will.

    Team I‘d like to see:

    Phillips
    Matthews Lockyer Sarr Doughty
    Field
    Cullen Morgan
    Williams
    Aneke Bonne

    Team I would expect to see:

    Phillips
    Matthews Lockyer Pearce Oshilaja
    McGeady Cullen Pratley Morgan
    Aneke Hemed

    Charlton Athletic 2-1 Reading
    Aneke
    Bonne
    Yeah pretty much this. Don't know about the result. I think teams have figured out our 4-4-2. Millwall didn't really get out of second gear and pretty much shut us down.

    Our season is going to hang on the next 3 games. We absolutely cannot go into the final game away at Leeds needing something. Lets go out and win two of our next 3 against beatable opposition. COYRs.

    We are now in the 'must win' or, at the very least, 'must not lose' stage if we entertain realistic hopes of avoiding relegation.

    I would be tempted to give Josh Davison a game if Bonne is too knackered to start. I think he has the ability to move the Reading defenders around more than Hemed or Aneke and has shown, particularly against West Brom, that he can mix it physically too. Another consideration is that Reading will almost certainly have prepared for various combinations of Hemed, Aneke and Bonne so a 'surprise factor' might go in our favour.

    must win

    They are safe so lets hope they know that and join the likes of Bristol & Preston on the beach already and make this an easier game.

    Not confident at all but desperately hoping for a 1-0 win. I fear if we drop into the bottom 3 we won't get out.

    Delighted to have won player of the month but more hard work for us to do to stay in the league. Starting tomorrow!
