Did you re-register for Charlton TV in the close season, because if you didn't it could be that.Champs85 said:Anyone know why I can’t see a match pass on Charlton tv for this? I’m in Spain currently and previously it would show for me. Do I need to change settings?
2-0 to Charlton.0 -
Wouldn’t be surprised if Fraser misses out as he had an ice pack on his calf after the Plymouth game.0

I like the positivity, but CBT would be great going forward but can't defend.CH4RLTON said:Play CBT at left back and Sess Right and that way both JRS and Kirk and keep their places too0 -
Could it be "after the Lord Mayors show"?
OR
We are on a roll.
Being of a certain vintage I expect a good hard kick in the nads, however.
3-1 to The Addicks3 -
Feel an uncomfortable 2-1 win coming on0

2-0. Go 1-0 up first half and hang on and score late on to seal it. Stockley and Leaburn2

Interested to see if Razaki will start again or if he'll have his minutes managed. He looked a bit tired during parts of Tuesday night, but he was covering some ground tbf.

Superb preview and thanks for train times too.
Cory Blackett and Riki Saki could be quite a combination. Almost feel sorry for the Cambridge full backs.
My first trip to the Valley this season and looking forward to it.

After a blockbuster performance it'll be typical that this game is a real grind and a slog.
I'm anticipating a 2-1 win, or a 2-0 with our second goal being scored very late on to seal a hard fought win against a Cambridge team that will want to prove that midweek was a blip.
When the 24 teams in the league were finalized, there was a clear split in expectations between 12 that would expect a promotion push and 12 that would be happy for another season in this league. Agree with others that Cambridge fall into the latter and so this is a must win home game. It's one of a dozen and we have to target a minimum of 30 points from those 12 games.

Another bunch of useless stats - Including my favourite xG in the very first column
- Cambridge are the fourth lowest in the League for total shots... Although having played (and beaten) Milton Keynes must have something to do with that, especially as they wont have seen much of the ball regardless.

Likewise, couldn't see Lavelle working at right back at all. Probably not in any system but definitely not in Garner's.
I think he's probably about 6th choice option for that spot, behind all four full backs (including Clayden) and DJ. If all five are injured we'd have a pretty serious problem because we'd have no left back either!

I had nearly forgotten about Egbo ! We must have bought him thinking he was a starter but I cant see how Clare hasnt cemented that spot ! It's a funny old game0

I think we’d see Ness at RB before Clayden or Lavelle. If Clare is out I’d be very surprised if it’s not Sess at RB with Clayden LB.Callumcafc said:Likewise, couldn't see Lavelle working at right back at all. Probably not in any system but definitely not in Garner's.

Wouldn’t be surprised to see Cambridge come and do a job on us and take a point.A honest squad and very good young manager, it will be a very difficult game.1-1 - heads proceed to fall off in the post-match thread.1

Not sure where the goals are coming from. 0-0.

True Charlton comment that mate, well done... Glass just sitting there neither half full or half empty, just sitting there gathering dust being stared at.SantaClaus said:Not sure where the goals are coming from. 0-0.3 -
Honestly Lavelle isn't even anywhere near 6th choice. He's ahead of only Inniss and Stockley at right back for me and I include every single youth team player on our books in this.Callumcafc said:Likewise, couldn't see Lavelle working at right back at all.

We don't have enough CBs to move Lavelle to RB anyway, with just 3 senior CBs, and one of those being made of glass!Jac_52 said:

At current with injuries it appears to be:

Morgan

don't think we'd ever put Clayden at RB.2 -
3-1 Jayden, CBT & Jes0

Saw this interview.
The manager is impressive.
Let's hope we see two teams on their game, no shithousery, and that we come out as winners.

If we do what we did on Tuesday - Pass, move, keep possession, look after the ball, get the ball wide, balls into the box - We should be too strong for Cambridge.
The standard has been set. We just need to maintain the standard0 -
We still play quite open defensively so anything can happen on the day. I'm still not sure if that's something Garner will work on or whether that is just his style. He may invite teams to open up and attack us because when we get the ball back, we can exploit the space. But I do find it a bit scary at times. Seemed like Plymouth were having plenty of touches in our box before they got the man sent off.
One thing's for sure, with how open our setup is, I don't think we'll be watching many boring games at The Valley this season.5
