My impression of the "on the beach teams" from watching Saturday's EFL highlights is that while they made defensive mistakes, they also had a lot more attacking freedom. Both QPR and Blackburn scored 4 on Saturday, and let in 3!
On that basis, I would expect Luton to score against Blackburn, but also concede...
Not a lot ever goes our way? The Barnsley late winner and the same for Luton makes Weds even tougher. Leeds will not want to sign off with anything but a win and our patched up team may well struggle. 3-0 to Leeds and I just hope we have some luck with other scores to keep us up. Believe and keep the faith.
Relegation favourites and smallest squad value in the whole league. Final day of the season we sit outside the relegation zone on goal difference as we prepare to travel away to the runaway champions who have a squad worth 9x as much as ours. We couldnt could we? #CAFC
So with us probably having to forget Wigan because let's be honest the EFL will do the opposite of what we want therefore we must win at Bellend Rd OR match Luton and hope Barcelona Barnsley lose or draw...
What a set of horrible options.... But better than ppg I suppose....
Just like the Wigan game I honestly dont hold out much hope but I said through rose tinted glasses 2-2 then so I'm going that score again, surely life cant be that cruel for us to fall at the last hurdle
Building up to this game reminds me of the playoff final in 1987. We are fourth from bottom and we must win ( because we cannot rely on the other results. ) The difference is that that year both teams were determined to win. Our players need to show the Leeds players just how determined they are that they are willing to put their bodies on the line to the point of getting hurt to succeed. It needs to be apparent to the Leeds players just what they need to do to win this match. Are they prepared to go that far? I would love to think that players like Jason Pearce will be whispering in the ear of the Leeds centre forwards: 'you better not be trying anything flash this match mate otherwise I should kick you so hard you won't be playing in your bloody precious Premier League.' or 'come the 95th minute and I shall bloody break your f****** leg if you try that again.' 'you won't even come close to making a Premier League appearance, you'll be too bloody crocked.' We need to put the wind up them like dirty Leeds did in the 70s. A bit of Vinny Jones in a Charlton shirt but be clever about it, like scraping their ankles at a corner, grabbing their balls, tugging at their ears. Another player distracts the referees attention of course whilst doing this. Get the job done. Do it dirty if necessary. Make it from the start so they don't fancy it. And FFS don't defend a goal lead. Go for another. Funny how the teams letting in all these late goals are the defending teams. There are not so many goals scored on the (over feared) break. Attack both football wise and literally. Play by the sword and kill by the sword.
Let's NOW all get fully behind Lee B, JJ, Steve Gallen and their Team of Warriors who have battled bravely against all odds, not least the off-pitch shocking, scandalous shambles. One last HUGE Push, bodies on the line, to get this campaign finally Over the Line and grab Championship Safety. Give it everything you've got 'til the fat lady sings', Lads...COYR like never before...let's now grab the brass ring!!!

OH FFS JIMMY DONT WIND THEM UP !!!! That all we need Leeds ready for a scrap lol I would rather a boring kick about and nobody getting near either penalty area lol
Marcelo Bielsa has said that he will not be taking this game lightly and has to respect the competition. He won’t be playing a weakened side, so fully expect to see the players who were rested on Sunday to play tomorrow.

Fine if they want a boring kick about. Maybe you're right in that our players should wait and see. If the Leeds players get playing like they mean it, then we should do as I suggest. But we need to be clever. Substitute those on a yellow. Be prepared to get a punch so that they get a red. Let them realise that we're angry. Our club hasn't got a pot to piss in, may not even have a league to play in if we lose. Our players may not have a contract, either at Charlton or anywhere because of covid19 if we don't stay up. Tell them in no uncertain terms that if they dare to even try to score that they risk not ever seeing their namby pampy pissing Premier League. I think you get the idea!

I was only messing Jimmy. I like you want the players to do whatever they need to do to get some kind of result. Although not if the gameplan is to defend for 90 mins lol. On a serious note I obviously dont have a clue of how we can win this one but I'm 100% sure that every player of ours our there will be giving their all ands that's all we can ask
Couldn't sleep last night because of this game and doubt I'll sleep well tonight either. Proper bricking it. Please just get the job done one way or another boys.
Just watched the Villa match as if I was a Villa supporter as practice for tomorrow night. That was physically awful. The misses to go two up. Arsenal hitting the post, and then the long four minutes of extra time with a bit extra just to give the Arsenal another chance. Long day tomorrow.

As for us I think it will depend on the first 30 minutes... If we can survive that then we might have a chance of only losing by five goals🤣.
Sorry, reduced now to nervy laughter....

Finished it for you. 😉
City aren't as they still have the CL to come
