Looking forward to this. Will ask my 7 year old grandson what the score will be as he is usually right. Full of optimism? Not really but will be happy to be at the valley on Saturday with the little one. Gonna go 2-1. Stockley and Leaburn. COYRs!
2 teams that had to rebuild in the summer. One recruited from League 1 & below, the other from The Championship & above (without spending any money on the process). Who's strategy was the wisest & who will come on top come 5pm.
Expecting a very tough game. I think Derby have recruited well, a lot of experience but at the same time players who are not yet past it. Hard fought draw for me, 1-1, Stockley header.
Looks on paper a cert draw … but Derby were poor against Oxford last week when Clinton Morrison described an injury as the only highlight of the first half … going to go for a sneaky 2-1 to Charlton
My Derby supporting mate Steve reckon they are vulnerable in the air. I replied it's all relative and advised him to have a staff meeting in and around the box everytime a cross comes in like we do. 2:1 Clare and junior

Charlton 0 Derby 2.
Really nice of Hourihane, Mendez-Laing, James Chester and David McGoldrick (all on massive salaries last season) playing for free.
I just want to see a good performance. A good performance should yield some points but I'm personally more interested in this teams identity. After all, it's playing well consistently that will get us out of this league eventually.
Will be a tight game I feel but we'll be edged out. 1-2.
2-2 again. I think similar to the Pompey game at home last season for some reason. We go 2 down but manage to claw it back - Leaburn with a late equaliser

Someone mentions "we need a stiker" and we all agree/disagree.
Surely the new-fangled turnstile thingies do the counting.
So this usually helps us.
2-1 to Charlton.

I’m not there to heckle but just make sure it’s above 6 foot and not 6 inches like most of the sponge foot attempts we see
2:1 Clare and junior
