    Interesting looking at the table… after MK, Sheff Wed and Sunderland we will have played 9 of the top 11 with only Rotherham & Ipswich left.

    By contrast we have games against Burton, Accrington, Cambridge, Lincoln, Shrewsbury, Wimbledon, Morecambe, Gillingham and Doncaster from the remaining 12 sides.
    The archetypal relegation six pointers, oh the joys of a Charlton fan.🤣

    Gunter must be in purely for comedy value. Nothing left to play for so give the 8 fans something to chuckle about on a cold Tuesday night in February. 
  • I’m in the queue at Sainsbury’s, getting my half-time Mars bar.

    I need something to look forward to to get me through the first half.
  • I’m ready to resurrect the play off thread when we go one up

    The only acceptable part of this is Castillo getting a go.

    Everything else is just...vile. Gilbey as fucking captain again the nadir
    What team and formation would you pick?
    McG

    Matthews Lavelle Famewo Castillo

    Dobson

    Morgan Lee

    DJ Burstow Leko
    Big weaknesses either way, Burstow doesn’t get too involved in a front two never mind as a lone striker and a formation that didn’t work at all at the start of the season.

    Just a weird team and squad. But usually one that somehow ends up winning 2-0 and then is never picked again.

    Feel typically flat and should save myself a tenner but this is Charlton and have to watch. Can't see anything other than a defeat. Very negative I know. Come on you addicks.

    Maybe he’s been practising really hard and showing his international form!!!, and JJ is unleashing him upon all and sundry!!!!

    Employing DJ and Leko as wing forwards feels paramount though. Maybe Lee can play as the false 9 and John in the middle

    As for the formation...we didn't have Dobson firing then. I reckon it'd be worth another shot with the players we have out

    8000? You'll be lucky! Look at the crowd inside so far. 
  • I'm getting seriously worried about Jackson.  One of the weakest teams we've ever put out . Gunter FFS .
  • Sounds like Forster-Caskey is back in full training?

    Currently talking about being back training with the squad and now wants U23 minutes

    I will watch until we go behind, then it’s safe to turn off - we never recover.

    Maybe that will cheer him up. 

    Blimey he looks miserable! 
  • Stuck in the ‘restaurant’ in the Premier Inn, Honiton. Waiter says - Good news - my baked spud is ready, but bad news the chef has just put a load of cheese sauce on it and then remembered it was meant to be vegan. Chef is starting again. 
    Was hoping to make it back upstairs for the KO….

    Lee is a false something. 

    I don’t think we can play 433- I don’t think we have a good enough centre forward. 

    Tonight, I would have played:

    Hendo

    Lavelle, Pearce, Famewo

    DJ, John, Dobbo, Morgan, Castillo

    Burstow, Leko

    Like you, I wouldn’t play Gilbey on the basis of the hiding on Saturday .  I don’t mind players being poor but his hiding was disgusting.  
  • I wonder what it must be like for our current players when they appear on CharltonTV

    They always sit there listening to Curbs talking about our history - and tend to seem a little perplexed.

    Wonder if they cant understand the prospect of promotion

    I don't mind sticking with the 3-5-2 really, given what's available, except that it utterly screws Leko over

    Saving the tenner, my boy has seen a hot wheels monster truck he’d like!!!,, our seasons tickets are tucked away in the draw tonight, although he don’t do night games on a school night.

    On a delayed train, feeling a sense of impending doom. 
    Trying to convince myself that Gunter actually had a few decent games earlier in the season, and can actually pass the ball. Maybe Dobson will sweep up after him?
  • Why do we "have" to look back to the Oxford game Scott ffs bad enough first time mate... B)
