It was touch and go to get home just in time to write the Match Thread, having driven for more than an hour from Padstow in horrible conditions in the pissing Cornish rain. But I made it. Now I'm trusting that Johnny Jackson and co are just as fired up to make it through to meet the Big Boys in the next round.
BANANA SKIN ALERT! Most of us still shudder remembering that wretched Northwich Victoria cup tie. We need to well heed the fact that The Heeds will be well up for this one. To some, Charlton Athletic is a big scalp.
Good news that Ryan Inniss is out training on grass - but for him and Jason Pearce, this match comes too soon. Leeeeeeko is back in the squad but lacking match fitness, but I'm expecting a strong line up, augmented by a couple of fringe players/prospects.
Four changes:
Remember, live on telly ITV4 , but no Charlton TV coverage as per the televised rules.
COYR!

We'll have a bench of nine players tonight so expect Jackson to basically select anyone he can - Five changes will be allowed, yet like the League last season can only make them during three stoppages0

The pitch is a long way from the stand and terraces!
Going to be a challenge for our hard-travelling faithful to make an atmosphere.

Evening Oggy et al

Jesus thats the first team apart from Henderson.

Well that is as strong as is possible. I imagine the theory is to make subs when comfortable with a view to Tuesday. That is the theory!!!!4

Begin the match with the first XI (near as possible), put the tie to bed as soon as we can, then start subbing off the important people for Tuesday's game against Dipswich.
Playing a second XI and possibly having to chase the game later to avoid embarrassment is always a recipe for disaster and shows scant respect for the competition.
Instead, start big, get the job done ... and then start resting players.

Can we have that in writing please?5 -
Agree. Respects the oppo and the competition. And after all, £34,000 is £34,000!0

I'd guess Burstow's still feeling whatever caused him to be subbed on Tuesday.
