Good afternoon everybody...

Today we entertain Wrexham in yet another bog standard league one fixture,🙄 and it's been reported that an almost sell out crowd is expected, which is great news and rarely seen nowadays, so into The Valley of Dreams come the 24000(ish), and we can expect the roof to be taken off the place, with another three points on the board to boot...YES!
So Wrexham, not played them much have we, we've met on 15 previous occasions winning three, Wrexham seven and the remaining five encounters resulting in draws, today’s match will be the first time the teams have clashed in over 40 years, with Charlton securing a 1-0 win in the last meeting back in February 1982...

Nathan Jones has confirmed that Gas has returned to training, though Kayne Ramsay, Lloyd Jones, and Daniel Kanu remain sidelined.

The visitors will be without Max Cleworth, George Evans, Steven Fletcher and Jack Marriott.

So, here we go eh

Nathan Jones has made four changes for this afternoon’s match with  Wrexham 

Tennai Watson, Greg Docherty, Luke Berry and Tyreece Campbell come into Charlton’s starting XI, with Rarmani Edmonds-Green, Terry Taylor, Allan Campbell and Miles Leaburn reverting to the bench.

Meanwhile, Danny Hylton is named in the Addicks’ matchday 18 for the first time.

Should the Addicks continue in the same formation, Watson will join Alex Mitchell, Macaulay Gillesphey and Josh Edwards in defence ahead of goalkeeper Will Mannion.

Coventry, captain Docherty, Karoy Anderson and Berry form Jones’ midfield, behind a front two of Tyreece Campbell and Matty Godden. 

Edmonds-Green, Taylor, Allan Campbell, Leaburn and Hylton are joined on the bench by Ashley Maynard-Brewer and Thierry Small.

Charlton: Mannion; Watson, A.Mitchell, Gillesphey, Edwards; Coventry, Docherty (c), Anderson, Berry; T.Campbell, Godden

Subs: Maynard-Brewer, Edmonds-Green, Small, Taylor, A.Campbell, Leaburn, Hylton

  • Getting nervous now... God its the big one... the one we've all be waiting for the... and I'm not going to be there, call myself a fan, call myself a Human being - I'm not even going to be able to endure the horror of having some little shit kicking the back of my chair for 90mins, or having to get up every few mins, as people get to their seats late, and then realise they're in the wrong place.

    God its bringing a tear to my eye now!! - The memories I miss out on now... Oh well, never mind

    For all the jokes I’m gutted I can’t be at a full Valley and can’t even watch on the stream today. Hope it’s a good game, a win and everyone has a good day 
  • Given how we usually perform when we have a big gate I'm not expecting good things today. Would be good to shove it down the throat of the Wrexham circus though. First goal will decide it IMO. 
  • A must win 
  • I know it's early, but has anyone tried logging into the CATV stream yet, only I keep getting "HLS stream error"...whatever that means?

    Very important that we squash the Dobbo narrative today, or everyone's going to be unbearable (including and especially me)

    This is what's called a 'professional banter move' 
  • Anderson 🤦‍♂️.

    How bad does Anderson have to be before he gets dropped? In the side ahead of Taylor? Really?

    Wrexham must be shitting themselves seeing Danny Hylton on the bench. I would rather have a one legged Ahadme.

    A Campbell over Dixon is the really annoying one tbh

    Can I be the first one to post....

    5 mins. Charlton free kick. Coventry takes. Too long & ends up into the away end.

  • Good afternoon one and all and welcome to world football's Game Of The Day as plucky underdogs Charlton Athletic, from the Woolwich & District Junior Football League, take on the Marvel-lous all-conquering, all-powerful, world-beating galacticos of, er, Wrexham.

    An almost-full house is expected at The Valley as a passionate and partisan home crowd try to lift their heroes to overcome the enormous odds and claim potentially the greatest victory in the club's history.

    People should be glad of that team, no way are the day trippers going to want to come back after seeing this ;)

    Huge opportunity for them to see V1000 today if Hylton makes an appearance

    Jeez, I must have been close to getting on the bench with my one leg!!
  • Hylton is going to be number 1,000 isn't he?

    A 5 minute run on at the end, and he never plays for us again.
  • Who the firkin am I kidding?

    This is as Third Division a game as you can get: Charlton, the very embodiment of third tier mediocrity over the last decade, against a side only two years out of a 15-season stretch in the Conference and have only had 4 (FOUR) seasons at a higher level than they are now.

    The club is expecting an attendance of 24+k today. If you want bums on seats and revenue for the club then that's good. If, on the other hand, you think people are rocking up purely because it's part of a reality TV show ("WTF is Wrexham" I think it's called, with a versatile "W" standing for "Where", "What" and/or "Why") and the oppo is owned by a pair of mega-famous Hollywood actors, Ryan Reynolds and, er, the other one. There'll be so much plastic it'll be more Barbie than Deadpool.

    It's not even as though Wrexhan is full of big-name players ... look at how many ex-Charlton they've got. Not only that, but players from some of the worst Charlton sides in living memory (don't get me wrong, I loved Dobbi to bits as a Charlton player and skipper but he was a Davy Lamo in the darkness of a deep-cast mine of shit).

    Let's just get past this bullshit three-ring circus sideshow of freaks (apologies to Tool) and then we can get back to our reality of getting knocked out of the FA Cup by a non-league side and fcuking up yet another Third Division league campaign.

    Bizarre selection and changes. Hylton? Really. Suppose with Ahadme, Kanu, Aneke out and Leaburn not up to full speed I shouldn't be surprised but jeez.
  • Lee and Dobson start for Wrexham this afternoon... O'Connell on the bench

    Isn't that why we have such a big crowd today, for the return of The Dobbo?

    Do you reckon Tracey's telling them she'll give them hell if they kick Miles up in the air?
