  • Not so sure about that Midfield. Hope to be proven wrong. 
  • Come on the lads, got a good feeling today they'll perform, very rarely bet on football these days but had a cheeky bet at 19/4 for the win and 3-1 on the draw.
  • Shaun Bartlett now on over Zoom
  • Hopefully Matthews will up the effort against his former club. 
  • Good to see Bartlett on the zoom,.. now lets see those great goals v Man U and The goal of the season, looking good and fit B)
  • I think it'll be 442 with lee and Leko as wingers, Dobson and Gilbey midfield and the two upfront.
  • I’m glad Dobson has been given a run out 
  • Great banter between Curbs, Brown, Minto and Bartlett.

    If only the match is half as good! 
  • Could also be a pretty attacking diamond I guess...

    Glad to see Dobson back in, know he’s not everyone’s cup of tea but he has energy, can break up play and will have a point to prove today.
    My concern is his judgement. If he misses any tackles, which he has done in the past, it leaves our back 4 really exposed with only him as defensive mid. There are no other tacklers in midfield.

    Thought similar but be surprised if Lee plays so deep
  • Winning at Anfield and doing the double over Liverpool...

    Me too, but would like to see it... him feeding Leko playing just off of the front two would be exciting
  • great interview with Bartlett
  • edited October 2021
    Ooof that "What you smiling at" from Curbs

    It was in jest over a past thing between him and Brownie, but still almost gave you a glimpse into what he could no doubt be like as a Manager in the dressing room 
  • Brilliant interview with Bartlett…top man

    Remember last time Jackson picked a team he had Millar on the side of a diamond.  
  • I really like Dobson but he’s not a great fit as part of a midfield 2. 

    He’ll either have a blinder or crumble.
  • JJ needed to do something with the team - but unhappy that Matthews in the team against a team like Sunderland , as he just cant defend - lets hope we are on the front foot in the game as Matthews is fine going forward but most teams target him once the game starts.

  • Love Shaun Bartlett! 
    Will be interested to know what the next move, he eluded to, will be! Very Coy
  • In our teachers' 5-a-side game yesterday, I called our team Charlton and the opposition, Manchester United. Charlton came from 12-18 down to win 21-18. It's an omen, I tell you.
  • Burton 0-1Oxford
  • Dont forget that Dobson is also ex Sunderland 
  • 3 minutes in and we are still 0-0  B)


  • Addicks up top. 
  • Can’t work out the formation, Washington looks quite central but Lee and Gilbey are in the middle with Dobson in front of the back 4.

    A lopsided 4-3-3 perhaps?..
