    Fcuking Birmingham. Still think back to that first game back in the championship after Powell took us up when they equalised in the last second. Done it last season. And again now. All to draw 1-1.
    Did it when we thought we’d won with a late Yann goal at the Valley too

    Charlton: Amos, Oshilaja, Pratley, Holmes-Dennis (Trialist), Lapslie, Morgan, Gilbey, Dempsey, Doughty, Washington, Bonne

    Substitutes: Phillips, Clarke (Trialist), Lockyer, Mingi, Purrington, Oztumer, Vennings, Forster-Caskey, Williams, Lewis (Trialist), Davison
    What was our formation there? 352 with Lapslie and Doughty as wing backs?

    Is Holmes-Dennis a centre back or full back?

    Been trying to work out the shape as well , there's rather a lot of midfielders there unless Lapslie played RB? Would be surprised if THD played CB in a 352

    THD is 5ft 9 so more a full back

    That's what I was initially thinking , unless it was 433 with Washington off the right of a front three

    I must have had one of my mind blanks . Who's Holmes Dennis ?
    Was a left back/midfielder who came through our academy a few years back.

    Best known for injuring Barry Bannan without touching him (some reason the video isn't appearing, it's there if you click on the tweet).


    It was one of the highlights of life under Roland.

    Here's what I assumed the formation was 

    Lapslie Deji Pratley THD 
    Morgan Dempsey Gilbey Doughty 
    ............. Washington Bonne 

    It could be 4-3-3 with Washington right and Doughty left, or 4-2-3-1 with Morgan or Gilbey playing in the 10 role. Would like to see that. We looked poor in a flat 4-4-2 last year and I don't think it gets the best out of our midfield.

    Bowyer on the game. Talks about a new formation - not sure what they would have been?
    Looking at that first half side, with only 2 recognised defenders, it was a 2-6-2 formation  ;)
