MATCH THREAD : Charlton Athletic Vs Blackpool : Saturday 7th October 2023 : KO 3;00 Pm

Good afternoon one and all...

Today we welcome The Seasiders to The Valley for a day out, and fully intend to send them home with nothing more than memories of gracing the hallowed turf.
Of course there are a couple of links here in Appleton and of course our (used to be) own Albie Morgan making his first return to The Valley, hope he has a good day, but not a winning one, wouldn't put it past him getting on the scoresheet though...🙄
Blackpool arrive today one place and one point better off than us, so could be a close game, but I am backing us to continue our run of form of five unbeaten and make it four wins on the spin at home with another three points which could leave us top 10 come 5 Pm...

So here we go...

Miles Leaburn returns to the starting lineup for this afternoon’s game against Blackpool as we look to add to a five-game unbeaten streak in the league.

The striker, who scored in Tuesday’s 4-1 win against Exeter City, will take the place of Chuks Aneke who moves to the bench.

It means the Addicks are likely to start in the 4-2-3-1 formation used in midweek with Tennai Watson, Michael Hector, Lloyd Jones and Terell Thomas starting in a back four in front of Ashley Maynard-Brewer.

Louis Watson is likely to partner skipper George Dobson in midfield with Boban Tedić, Alfie May and Corey Blackett-Taylor operating just behind Leaburn.

Aneke is joined on the bench by Henry Molyneux, Lucas Ness, Nathan Asiimwe, Scott Fraser, Chem Campbell and Tyreece Campbell.

Charlton: Maynard-Brewer; T Watson, Hector, Jones, Thomas; L Watson, Dobson (C); Tedić, May, Blackett-Taylor; Leaburn

Subs: Molyneux, Ness, Asiimwe, Fraser, C Campbell, T Campbell, Aneke

  • Who does Chem replace on the bench?
    He was on the bench midweek too. Came on as a late sub for Dobson.

    He came into the 18 in place of Terry Taylor following his injury at Shrewsbury.

    Don't think he did.
  • Answered my own question, Anderson.
    Karoy hasn’t been in a matchday 18 since Wycombe (H).
  • Glad to see Tedic starting again, may have dropped him myself for one of the Campbell's or Fraser.

    But he did well second half on Tuesday, so doesn't really deserve to be dropped.

    So he did. I was there too !!

    I sat there for a second thinking Rhodes had been left out ... why are they announcing him in that order!? Hoping we wouldn't notice? Makes it look like he is gonna play centre mid...

    Guessing they’ve listed their XI the proper way (by squad number)…

    Ours should be: Maynard-Brewer, Jones, Thomas, Dobson, Hector, May, Leaburn, T.Watson, Blackett-Taylor, L.Watson, Tedic

    Is that the proper way? So what if you are using your sub goalie at number 13!?

    Goalies always come first, only exception. :-)

    Edit: in fact, Blackpool’s keeper wears 32.
  • Might be the proper way but I've always disliked it.

    What about when the players were listed 1-11?
  • Other than, imo, Tyreece for Tedic, that’s probably our strongest starting XI available and fit right now. And with, again, options to win in it off the bench.

    I always thought it was traditionally always  GK, RB, CB, CB, LB, CM, CM, RM CF, CF, LM or the closest to that order depending on formation. I feel the need to dig out on of my old match day programmes and have a look now lol 

    (this is a me problem ignore me guys haha)

    Okay, not always, since squad numbers. 
  • So Curbs and Scotty are joined by the injured Harry Isted in the studio, be nice to hear what he has to say, get well soon Harry...
  • The last train to get to Charlton from London before kickoff cancelled, grrrr.

    20 minute gap to the next train also

    FFS

    I go to the toilet while waiting for the next train from Cannon Street, and while I'm there it's reinstated and departs 7 minutes late before I can get on it  :#
