There's a bit of positivity and expectation for once going into a home game, so expect a loss. It will be a tough game Exeter have had a good start to the season
Louis Watson got to start. The first player I’ve seen in a Charlton shirt for a while that actually tries to pass the ball forward and move at pace from a central position.
I have a funny feeling Asiimwe may start at right back tomorrow as there must be doubt whether Watson can play 3 games in a week at the moment.
Players too soft nowadays - I once played rugby on Saturday afternoon in Haywards Heath, couple of pints, train into London and played evening football match, more beers, curry then Sunday morning football in Bromley .... I was obviously an athlete or an idiot.
Interesting moment for Appleton. Shrewsbury had similar, albeit worse form.
We should’ve beaten Shrewsbury on Saturday. On form and with home advantage, we should beat Exeter tonight. Appleton was clearly pissed off with the first half last time out so will be interesting to see if he gets a reaction.

Is the wolves player Campbell injured or out of favour
Seems out of favour since Appleton came in. Was taken off against Stevenage, didn't come on against Wycombe, and didn't make the squad against Shrewsbury. Would like to see him back as think he adds something different, and takes a bit of pressure off Blackett-Taylor, but he might not be doing enough in training (competitively) to get in the squad, who knows?
He didn't impress against Stevenage. I suppose Appleton needs him to show him what he can do.
Got to be winning this one really, no disrespect to Exeter but if we can't win at home to teams like them then there is no chance we will end up top 6.
Wondering what the ideal 'opposition form' is. Losing several on the spin is disaster as they'll definitely turn that around. Winning several on the spin is terrible as they'll continue that. Probably the best is lots of draws, but not too many as they'll be looking for a reaction. You want them to be quite weak, but with a recent win, except not in the last game. So I'd say that careful science has revealed the ideal opposition form to be LWD (most recent first)

small crowd etc...think we'll sneak it though (just) 2-1
Could be a difficult game but going for a 1-0 win. Alfie May to score.
