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.🤣
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.
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.

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
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.

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 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?

I need something to look forward to to get me through the first half.

Currently talking about being back training with the squad and now wants U23 minutes
Blimey he looks miserable!

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
