The Road to Wembley ...... (!)

Everyone but Oohaah wants us to win this one :smile: , even if excitement levels are not really ringing too loud. 

The manager says he is focused on winning tonight and despite some changes, has promised us a decently strong line up. Jacko said: “It’s a game we want to win and we’ll put out a strong team for".

Win tonight and we're in the quarter-finals.


Charlton: Harness; Matthews, Inniss, Gunter; Blackett-Taylor, Henry, Watson (c), Kirk, Souaré; Leko, Burstow

Subs: Harvey, Elerewe, Ness, Dempsey, Davison, Gavin, Williams




Come on You Reds!

    Going against the general consensus I know but I want to try and win this. Our trophy cabinet is hardly overflowing is it ? Winning breeds a winning attitude. Some of us sound like spurs fans saying they dont care about the Europa league as it's a poxy cup 🙄🙄

    Oggy's back which means back to winning ways.

    Looks a mismash of a formation? 4-4-2 maybe?

    No idea what formation we are going to play with that lineup but as said before there are few in that hopefully have a point to prove

    4-4-2 is the only way I can see that working, unless CBT is playing in the midfield 3

    Who do you think is up front with Burstow... Kirk or Leko? - Surely the latter with CBT on the other flank

    A decent enough side, but considering a quarter final place is at stake, I thought there would be a couple more regular first teamers starting.

    Depends how seriously MK Dons are taking tonight's game.


  • The same 352 surely

                     Harness
           Matthews Inniss Gunter

    CBT        Henry      Watson     Souare
                         Kirk]
                 Leko          Burstow

    The one who actually put in a decent half-hour up front in the last game before being shunted to the wing (where he lost all his effectiveness)?

    Ryan Innis to score anytime- 25-1 on Betfair .

    A decent side for MK Dons. Jules, O'Hora and Darling are a strong L1 level back three. Kasumu, Robson and Boateng a good midfield combo and Eisa capable of goals up front.

    Don't know a massive amount about Ravizzoli, Watson, Bird or Ilunga.

    Harness
    Gunter Inniss Souare
    Matthews Henry Blacket-Taylor
    Watson Kirk
    Leko Burstow

    Complete guess, possibly Henry and Watson change position

    I believe Inniss and Pearce bundled him in the boot of Arter’s motor before anybody noticed. Could be weeks before he is found.

    It says CBT and Souare expected to play wing backs on the OS. Religiously sticking to that formation if so.

    If it is mate it will be quicker than anyone found him on the pitch 😂
  • Good to see CBT back, felt like we missed being able to bring him on in those games we were struggling to find an opening. 
  • Are we winning yet?
    Doing ok at the moment still 0-0.. B)
