Match Thread: Rotherham United vs Charlton Athletic | Saturday 9th April 2022

edited April 2022 in General Charlton
Back up North yet again, well just as far as Rovrerm.
New York stadium in fact .... so good, they didn't ever bother naming it twice. There's a famous pop song about it, of course. :wink:

Rotherham fancy their chances, no doubt ...... while most of us fear the worst. Naturally. Are we up for a caning today or are we going to nick a surprise result?
What does Jacko have to say? He's upbeat: "We are in a decent place, we need to go with a positive mindset and I think that we can go there and get a victory."

Okay. All the right noises.
Lineup: No injured Lavelle or Inniss as he pays the price for his brain going AWOL last game. Ben Purr could be a doubt as he's suffering from whackontheknee.
WE'll see Fam and old warhorse Pearce, who if he starts will no doubt be skip. Out latest scapegoat Gilbs is available again, and talking of favourites, we could see Gunts added to the bench.



Charlton: MacGillivray; Clare, Pearce (c), Famewo; Matthews, Gilbey, Dobson, Morgan, Blackett-Taylor; Stockley, Washington

Substitutes: Harness, Purrington, John, Forster-Caskey, Jaiyesimi, Leko, Burstow




Charlton TV begins at 2.15pm.
Scotty is back with Curbs - and todays special guest is JFC's step dad, Nicky Forster - once of this parish on loan.

COYR!

    Be good if he were to play alongside Elliott Lee - Rob and Carl surely played together as well

    Have a feeling we may get something from this afternoon 3 points... :)
    So we have Nicky Forster in the studio with Curbs and Scott, the high lites shouldn't take up too much time, mind you 8 games and two goals while on loan from Brighton, sort of sounds prolific against our current offering..Let's just hope we turn up with a performance, shame some youngsters not on show..and Burstow??..

    No idea what he's doing , blah, blah, blah.

    Just waiting for Golfie to come on and tell us our strikers are shit, same as he has for every match thread this season.

    Honestly not sure why we should bother with loans on the bench now.

    Play the kids who are impressing in the U23s instead, good chance to see where we may not need as much depth.

    Gilbey will be booked at some point. My money is on 25 minutes

    I certainly don’t understand why John is on the bench.  Absolutely no point at all.

    Not watching today, but HOORAH, Morgan has finally got a game
    He's like when your sorting out the basement or loft and find something that you completely forgot about having.

    Fraser and Lee have minor knocks

    This looks a much better side to me .  I liked the headline that Fraser and Lee were “missing” - they have been for weeks .

    Miles Leaburn on the bench... No 54


    So what was the point of this then?

    Bad presumption from someone who hadnt seen the teamsheet

    Probably saw the shirt and mistakenly put two and two together

    I assume they must print shirts for all the squad making the trip right? Just in case of last minute injuries or sickness. 

    Otherwise it's a bit harsh on the kid to have his stuff up just to not make the squad.

    The loan players will not be helping us next season,give the Charlton youngster a run out instead.
    It will help us in the long run.
    1-1 today by the way

    Morgan and Gilbey? FFS
    Where's Fraser?
    What a pedestrian and mediocre looking line-up.
    Prove me wrong Charlton.

    Is it not stipulated by the parent club as a condition of the loan?
