First time we are going to an away game since Wimbledon in 2019, first proper new ground (as opposed to the Don's temporary ground) in donkeys years. Looks a bugger to get to from the station, but we'll manage...
Cheers CE. Suspicions confirmed then. The number 16 bus mentioned does not exist according to the local bus website. The Only # 16 in Buckinghamshire serves Aylesbury?
Thanks for that clive. Walk to the bus station, walk to the ground from the pub. That's what I meant by a bugger to get to. The Valley, train to the end of the road - so simple...

Just lookex at the train as an alternativ eto driving there. Last bus leaves the station at 2.15pm & only 2 buses going back - at 5.15 & 6pm. and people wonder why wed dont use public transport !!
As with last season I've arrived early so that I can have a nice walk in the countryside near the ground. That way I can at least look back on today and say I've had a nice walk ..

Welcome to CL, Nigel Adkins, I hope you and your family are well and you enjoy the walks, because walking is wonderful.
Because to get automatic promotion two points a game is needed and we're behind on that.
Also, this is a test of possession passing football against a direct style. We need to win games like this and the Cambridge one, or at least get 4 points. Otherwise we may as well stop our much heralded but ineffective playing style and match them up as the away team by being niggly and banging it in the air to Stockley.
Sorry but my expectations for Charlton go beyond reality, and I don't care how we win. We need to be a bit more clever sometimes and take advantage of crap referees.
Because we are three points behind target. Even if we win at Wycombe we will be one point behind target.
What target? We're 5 games into the season!
What target?! Errrr, don't you want promotion? The target has to be 10 points minimum. Nothing else is good enough. The acceptance of such low standards at Charlton is saddening.

So when Swindon went direct and Charlton went direct by the keepers for Davison and Washington to score, all you purists thought that was terrible last season ?
Mix and match and don't be predictable. I love to see teams passing and moving but if a quality long pass gets cafc a goal then magic if slow turning League 1 CB can't turn quick enough. I'm not just talking about Ryan Inniss !
Hoof ball is rubbish. but a quality long ball can change a game. Balls 6 ft over Stockley's head was embarrassing but quality diagonal balls for CBT etc to run on to aren't.
Mix and match will always be the way to success in League 1 where so many coaches went on the same Courses and have watched so many coaching sessions on videos and in person.
Garnerball or Evatt ball, can be countered so you really do need to think on your feet to make sure you win the battle of the managers/coaches.
In case I'm not understood by the fans already half pissed, hoof ball is rubbish but using the height of Jayden, Miles or Inniss just seems common sense on occasions.
I would've dropped Innis after last week and following Lavelle's strong performance the game before.
I would agree but for this game I think Innis will be better dealing with high balls into our box. Hopefully he doesnt try to bring the ball out from defense 🙄

No Aneke, No CBT, No Sessegnon, No Mcgrandles
also a tower of physical strength which we miss badly when not out there
I'd have thought Innes's job is to deal with him.
