Match Thread: Oxford v Charlton | Sat 6 March 2021

Oggy Red

Afternoon all. I'm not tripped up by a 6pm ko, so you'll all be thrilled to know today's Match Thread is in full production.
Big thanks to @aliwibble for keeping the show on the road last time.

Well, Mr Robinson will be looking forward to putting one over on his former club. It's down to you, Bow to outwit him.
"But if we do the basics right, we are a good side. We showed that on Tuesday ....".

Yep, spot on, Lee. Get the basics right. And let's start strongly.

Gilbey and Inniss return to training next week. And Prat's is suspended, again.
Chuks looks like he's ok.



Unchanged!!

Charlton: Amos; Matthews, Famewo, Pearce, Maatsen; Forster-Caskey, Watson, Smith; Millar, Aneke, Washington

Substitutes: Harness, Gunter, Oshilaja, Shinnie, Jaiyesimi, Schwartz, Stockley

Thought you'd get the garden sorted today? Think again:
Supporters who are yet to purchase a pass for Saturday's game can do so here.

Live on Charlton TV, the Scott Minto Show, starring Curbs and Robert Lee, looking for his old turnstile. Starts on Valley Pass 2.15pm

Terry & Greg on commentary, joined today by Brownie to tell us all what went wrong in defence.


Quite a package. All we need is a win on the road.

COYR!

Yep can't complain about that at all. 

Unfortunately I get the feeling that we are about to get played off the park by a Karl Robinson team. But if we can keep it tight and nick a goal on the counter, and defend it well, that will do me just fine. 

Covered End

No changes!

I thought that was Ron Atkinson playing for them! Robbo deciding to bring back a club legend to add a bit of experience up top

Perhaps the matchday squad have spent the last few days living it up on Wigan Pier?
They didn't bother going home.

Great to see as you say, unless you are one of the subs of course, hopefully get Stockley and Schwartz some game time today

Don't care what you say Karl, there's no way you used to wear this jacket.

I worry now that Chuks’ or Mastsen’s hamstrings are going to go twang inside the first twenty minutes. But got to be happy to see an unchanged side named. Something we haven’t done often enough this season. I’m particularly pleased to see Matthews retained, I think he’s another one, like JFC, who takes a few matches to get fully up to speed and I think when he’s playing well he offers us a bit more than Gunter. He got forward very well the other night.

Hopefully they're only needed to give them a morale boosting run out when we're 4-0 up

Rather than in need of a goal

Is Lee punishing Albie for some indiscretion?

The Tank ..... I can remember Ron Atkinson playing for Oxford at The Valley about 1969 or 1970.
His skinny brother Graham wore the number 8 shirt.

Things you remember from when you were young. Can't even remember what I did yesterday now.

Great to see that Brownie is back on the commentary, let's hope he can weave his optimism and knowledge into a good result, Robert Lee is back with Curbs, and he has bought yet another offspring to the party
