Sounds more LOTR to me

They've had 3 clean sheets in a row. We've had 6 clean sheets in a row
It'll either finish 0-0 or 4-4 1 -

I'm hoping we can line up as shown and will pinch a 1-0 victory.

2-0 for me.0

The clean sheets have to end some time and without Famewo it seems more likely. We let in one and score one or two in a tight game.0

I think this would leave us too open. They play a 4-3-3 with the central three playing in a tight diamond with the tip playing just in front of the back four. It makes it very difficult to go through the middle so you are forced out wide. The front three spread as wide as possible and do help out the full backs. Very tight when defending which is why they don’t concede too many. The counter attack is what they look to do and they are good at it.Siv_in_Norfolk said:

They press, sort of. More to get you to pass than to tackle.
How you set up to stop them and score is above my pay grade, but two CH marking one player would seem a waste. Maybe 3 at the back and a five in midfield?1 -
See no reason not to go for another win.
I wonder if we’ll see the long awaited appearance of Maddison?0 -

Think without Famewo, who does some of the more graceful defending, we might concede one this time, but still fancy us to take it. 2-1 Charlton, looking forward to tuning in1

Can see Ched Evans scoring, so we will need two...0

Joey Barton gets on my nerves. Hope we smash them.1

This is probably a game where we can't go gung ho. Patience is the way tonight.0

Tough, niggly game against a team most of us dislike who can play a bit.
I am going 1-1 or a tight 1-0 to us.2 -

I hadn't realised that Hull were the team due to play Accrington today. While the break might be nice for them, the midweek game before the FA Cup and EFL Trophy matches is the wrong time for a game off really!0
-
Yes, and I have been advocating going for it a bit. But tonight, they will be looking to break on us I suspect which is more dangerous as they will be full of confidence. So tonight is not the game to change that approach.blackpool72 said:

Introduction
5 wins in a row, 6 clean sheets on the trot. The last time we had any kind of record like that was in 2012 and 1998, respectively. The omens are good for Charlton right now, especially when you consider the players to come back from injury and the limited time the squad has had to gel. Bowyer has already expressed how impressed he is at the fighting spirit amongst the group; add that to the quality we have too, could this season turn out to be one of the best we have had in many a year? Moving swiftly back to the present day, and thankfully this time round, after the announcement of a month-long lockdown, football is not shutting down. So next up are another in form side, making the long trip south, Fleetwood Town.
I think the 2009-10 season we didn't lose a league game for the first fifteen matches.
Our opening record was W W W W W W D D W D W and those three draws were against Leeds, Norwich and Southampton who were the three best teams in the league.
I can understand we want to block that season out due to the way it ended but it was certainly the best start to a season and probably best consecutive run that I can remember
edit: Just looked it up, we lost our tenth game against Carlisle, so lost once in opening fifteen, also went on an eleven game unbeaten run later that year too.2 -

That run was under Phil Parkinson and League 1 was so much stronger than now with the teams mentioned, Southampton, Leeds and Norwich. To win 8 and draw 3 against those 3 teams was an amazing start
Swindon was Parkinson's nemesis, not only in the Nicky Bailey Row Z, 2nd leg semi final playoffs game but his last match in charge at the Valley the following January which resulted in a 2-4 loss to the Robins and the tin tack for PP.
Ps. Another season when we were the last team to lose was under Big Bob Peeters in the Championship. More draws than wins in that sequence.1 -
