Hoping Accrington and Sunderland also help us out tonight.
Accrington rather odd form recently, they’ve lost games 3-1 to Rochdale, 5-1 to Wimbledon and 7-0 to Peterborough, yet last two games have managed a draw and win against Sunderland and Doncaster. Interesting which Accrington turns up tonight and then again for us on Saturday.
Can see more changes tonight .. Gunter for Matthews, Maaston for Purrington ... expect Stockley to be rested for Aneke with Washington replacing DJ .....
I slipped up on Saturday and used my England mug instead of the Addicks mug for coffee. And then I failed to drink a bottle of wine during the game. I know that it sounds a bit of a lame excuse but my Addicks mug’s unbeaten run has come to its end. However, I’m geared up for tonight’s match with a bottle of Gavi chilling and waiting to be taken out of the fridge and uncorked. I wonder why this is never mentioned in the match previews as its all part of match preparations? 🥸
Big one for Adkins tonight, his failure to act early enough with subs cost us any chance Saturday. If it’s Stockley all night waiting for crosses that sail anywhere except near his head, I will not be impressed. We need to be on the front foot and go for it......
In my opinion if we are going to make the play offs we need to win 3 of our last 4. Hull are probably a step above our level (like Peterborough at times on Saturday) so a win tonight is crucial.
I fear the usual Charlton curse of injuries will prevent Aneke and Washington contributing much. I hope Maatsen is fit. His pace is useful wherever he is deployed.
I understand Washington and Aneke are not fully fit and we’ve got to be careful to make them last these 4 games plus possibly play offs. But I’d hope to see them earlier than we did on Saturday.
It s possible, even likely, we won't need them. I think it is important not to flog a dead horse though. If we are creating nothing we have to change and change quickly.
