TEAM NEWS | Only five subs for the Addicks today. Despite not being 100 per cent fit, Jake Forster-Caskey and Chris Solly insisted on making the journey for the team. #cafc
Despite everything, that is a strong first XI. And we have Jackson's presence on the bench. And Reeco. And Phillips is quite good at his impromptu Crossbar Challenges, so maybe he can come on up front

Strong xi? Brilliant, you should be a stand up comedian.

Good job we can only play 3 subs anyway.
Sounds to me that there's still a good spirit among players. With Holmes leaving and all the takeover chaos, perhaps Jacko's been at work building morale?
Surely we could fill that bench with youngsters though? I understand KR wants to highlight how shit things are but this means we have 2 outfield replacements if Solly and JFC aren't fit.
I'm mystified by the decision to go with that bench.
If Solly and Forster-Caskey are not fit, having them on a five man bench is petty and, quite possibly, damaging. Even if forced to select from the U23s, we need to have both a full and fit bench (while hoping to avoid throwing unready players into the fray).
Frankly, if this is Robinson's decision, he should go. It's the sort of petulance I'd expect from a 10 year old. He is, IMHO, today deliberately sacrificing our team's chances of a win on the altar of his own ego, leaving us with an inadequate matchday squad (so, in terms of player selection, not too far removed from the self-regarding idiocy of Duchatelet since 2014).

(well as far as Charlton are concerned).

These things happen so encourage the youngsters rather than be political.
