  • Dont want to keep blaming Clayden, as its not his fault he was put into that position

    But with Sessegnon back, he's got protection to his left now - Balance is back in the Defence, so we're seeing less mistakes (now I've done it), and more proper work in the back four, like what we saw against Derby.
  • Despite Sessegnon not being a Left footed LB he is looking decent to fill in at League 1 level though he will struggle to overlap and put in consistent good crosses from his wrong side But at least he can play Full back as opposed to a converted winger like Clayden. He also helps Eoghan when he has a solid partner to his left, alongside and Dobson and Fraser in front.

    Good to see O'Connell playing well over the last few games alongside Inniss ( stay fit Ryan !) and making the comment: O'Connel is ''Dog shit'' just vile nonsense by a CL member just 4 games ago.
  • Looked a bad one. Hope I'm wrong

    Agreed, I fear it'll be season ending, if it's anything like JFC's knee injuries 
  • See him in 6 months no doubt, looked bad

    shame as he’s really starting to play well 
  • At least he won't lose his pace if it's a serious one. 
  • Left on crutches and his leg in a brace

    Not surprised, it looked a bad one as soon as he went down
  • Get well soon Eoghan!
  • Oh no, not good news.
  • Got fingers crossed it’s only a few weeks. The best CB at the club. We are going to lose a lot by not having him in the team.
  • Does he get hurt if that whistle does not go off in the home end?

    Yes because the whistle came as he tackled his man. Not before. Either way he ignored the whistle and won the challenge.

    The whistle did come before. That's why Jules looked across across at the lino before he shot. O'Connell put the tackle in just as he shot. I don't think he would've got to him without the whistle.

    Cheers. That was my take on it as well, but with our many overseas viewers these days tuned into Charlton TV, they might have a take on it

    Yeah I watched it on the stream and they showed the replay a few times.

    He looked across after his shot. They replayed it several times at half time and he only looked across after he was tackled.
  • Small observation I made yesterday - I'm pretty certain he came out to watch the remainder of the second half on the pitch side seats in the West with Tracey Leaburn. I'm presuming it was him, but it is unlikely anyone else would come out on crutches, with a hoodie on and with hood up. Also, looked like he had a knee brace on.

    He looked like he was in pain on the stretcher when he went off, and the fact that Tracey was with him for support, suggests it was a bad one. Experienced players tend to know when it's bad. I hope he's not out for too long, but reactions suggested a season-ender.

    It is going to be bad but how bad will not be clear until it is fully investigated. It coud be a couple of months say if he is lucky.

    You were saying that on the match thread. We were both watching the same stream so it's strange. He looks twice, once quickly before he shoots, and again afterwards. 

    Hope the full match is released. 
  • Would be interesting to see the full clip and angles for sure.
  • Out for weeks rather than months according to Garner,Egbo not such good news unfortunately

    Oh really? You would have thought it the other way around considering how their injuries went.

    Egbo is going to be a massive miss for us.

    Yep,think we all feared the worst when Oconnell was stretchered off didnt we? Egbo walked off the pitch,unbelievable really🤦‍♂️
  • Good news for O'Connell and for us regarding this specific case.

    Goes to show you can't ever really tell with any kind of injury just because someone is able to hobble off or another is stretchered off.

    Hopefully, they're both back sooner than the initial prognosis.
