Do love a Tuesday night home match. That scrum of trying to get on that rammo train at London Bridge with thousands of commuters.Building your early part of the working week round it. No late meetings on a Tuesday evening and nothing to early on the Wednesday.Anyway, hoping for a Bogle goal tonight. Hoping his hard work will lead to his first of the season. Will happily take a 1-0 and no injuries.0

Maddison's in the squad2

2-1 defeat to a dog shit team playing anti football, another injury (this time to a midfielder) and we're all on here moaning about referees and teams that hack players down and lump it forwards.0

It's getting near the witching hour when the team is announced.
I'll put up a match thread.

It would also prove to them and others that our defence is now breachable.Pavoren007 said:
Exactly the side I would put out. Do not rotate more than you need to for this league game, do the rotation for the cup tie come the weekend.Dazzler21 said:Getting out of the league is the priority, therefore I expect us to go for the win here.
I'm hoping we can line up as shown and will pinch a 1-0 victory.
I think 3-1 to us, regardless of their good form, I think Bogle will break his duck, Aneke will add to his tally and Shinnie will also chip in.
I would actually rather a 4-3 regardless of what that would do to goals against column (as currently best in the league) to help prove to the lads that they have lots of goals in them...(still a bit of a question mark).
3-1 is always better than 4-3.2 -

More like the 21st... If Rochdale isnt cancelled I'll get Charlton Athletic Football Club tattooed somewhere!!SheedyCAFC said:We don’t have another league game until the 14th so I don’t see why Bowyer would be looking at resting anyone when he can rest Pratley Maatsen etc after tonight0 -

Purrington been drafted in at Left Centre-Back
Bowyer sticks to form having as balanced a back four as possible0 -

Wasn't it in the 98 season that we won 12 games in a row from Boxing Day then played bottom placed Swindon at home,. They hadn't won for about 12 games. Swindon were that poor, we had a whip round at half time to help with their youth team funds. We lost 1-0.
Tonight close game. 1-0 with a new scorer?2 -
Yeah Dean Kiely dived onto a low cross and somehow sent it into his own net...

Remember that, after our 12 consecutive wins, bottom of the League Swindon won 1-0 at The Valley without having a shot at goal.The Prince-e-Paul said:Wasn't it in the 98 season that we won 12 games in a row from Boxing Day then played bottom placed Swindon at home,.

Dean Keily fumbled a cross which ended up in the back of the net.

From memory I think we lost to a Kiely HowlerThe Prince-e-Paul said:Wasn't it in the 98 season that we won 12 games in a row from Boxing Day then played bottom placed Swindon at home,.

And you all laughed at me!Fortune 82nd Minute said:I think LB once said, after pairing the 2 left footers Pearce and Sarr together and watching them failing miserably as a pair, that he would ideally always want to play a right and left footer together in the centre of defence.
As an outside bet, how about an Innis/Purrington combination or a back 3 of Gunter or Pratley/Innis/Purrington combination?0 -
no jfc0

Surely Aneke is fit enough to start a game now?
Strange day to give Morgan his first start.0 -
11 Mar 2000 CAFC 0-1 STFC - the winning goal a soft shot that Kiely fumbled in off the post/

Think we'll win 2-10

Very tough game in store tonight and Barton will have his team up for this one. About time we conceded so I am going 1-0 to Fleetwood in a dour match.0

3-0 to us, run continues1

You’re quite right with what you say. But the point I made was the last time that we won 5 in a row was 2012, and the last time we didn’t concede for 6 games was 1998.milo 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.My apologies, that makes sense.1 -
And 3-2 is better than 4-3 (Fewer conceded for defensive confidence)jimmymelrose said:

When did we last win 6 on the spin? Was that also 98? I think we won maybe 6 or 7 then?0

2011/12... 22nd October to 28th NovemberDazzler21 said:When did we last win 6 on the spin? Was that also 98? I think we won maybe 6 or 7 then?
Carlisle | Wycombe | Hartlepool | Preston | Brentford | Huddersfield, was ended with a 1-1 draw with Walsall
Not sure how we did overall that season though1
