    I see Ruben Cavalho is back on trial.

    We've had him here before on trial last year.



    Edit: Sorry @Leeds_Addick I hadn't seen your post when I wrote this.

    9' GOAL! The Addicks take the lead via Richard Afrane-Kesey! He takes advantage as a Colchester defender slips, he makes his way into the box and finishes confidently into the bottom right-hand corner.

    He's still U18 level, don't forget - ahead of his age group in the U23 squad.

    Carvalho has to have been on the longest trial ever.

    Quick comment to say Colchester have had a good development set up for a few years now.
    Games against them are usually decent.

    That second goal sounds a bit tasty

    19' WHAT A GOAL! Samuel Oguntayo with an absolute peach! He beats a man just outside the box and places a brilliant, curled effort over the keeper which dips under the bar and into the net. 2-0! #cafc 2 #cufc 0

    First goal was tidy finish after their skipper slipped over.
    2nd was a peach on his wrong foot too.  Oguntayo Stepped inside after Quitirna’s corner wasn’t cleared and curled into the top corner.  According to Twitter he’s on trial but for the 2nd week running he’s caught the eye. 

    Henry pulling the strings nicely.  Very vocal.  Playing well above his age but plays the ball over his shoulder to the right back a bit too often.  Need to watch they don’t intercept that.
    taylor at the back is a decent defender and seems intelligent but might need to fill out a bit.  Ness is a big strong boy  but maybe not as good a footballer as Taylor.

    quitirna is busy and skilful.  Good delivery.  Very small but I like him
    Agyemang has impressed me a lot.  Very physical and strong but also got a good range of passing.  

    Clayden and Carvalho on the wings haven’t had a lot of the ball.
    barton looks a decent right back option.  Tenacious and quick.

    osaghae in goal hasn’t had much to to.  Very loud.  Good kicking with exception of the first kick.  Mostly rolled to centre backs for build up from the back.

    Comfortable so far .  Hopefully we keep the level up

    I feel we might need to get in quick on Oguntayo. Already been linked with 4/5 prem clubs including Man City. Only 18, sounds like he could be a real prospect.

    He's got a lovely touch on the ball.

    Is he related to Chris o'Gunteryo, who has 99 caps for Wales? :smile:

    Good that Famewo got another 60 minutes in his legs.

    Jason Euell deserves an opportunity to get a chance in the League.  Wimbledon would be a good chance at a club he knows well.

    Nathan Jones had a talented young team, that helped his success in getting a League job as a manager. Pope, Poyet, Smith, Pigott, Lennon, Ajayi, Fox, Sho-Silva, Holmes-Dennis and a very young Gomez occasionally played above his age group.

    Ps. Just remembered two other lads who played around that time. One small midfielders, one who was 5ft 3in and went to Cheltenham and the guy who was captain when we beat Tonbridge Angels in the Kent cup. He went to Maidstone initially but drifted out of football.
    Also an Irish CB who gave up football to play hurling back in Ireland.

     
    Munns and Kevin Feely?

    Cheers @ Swisdom.
    Little Jack Munns and Kevin Feely.

    So the only player that fell right off the radar was the captain when we gave Tonbridge Angels a tonking at their ground in the Kent cup final.
    We scored 7 and Michael Smith scored 4 or 5 goals. 
    Can't remember the year but Smith and Pigott were the twin strikers and Fox played as well.
    As I said he drifted off to Maidstone but didn't last too long there.
    Nice lad who told me he was struggling with an ankle injury before he was released.

    3-1 now.  Nice goal from their #9 but we score almost immediately with Charles Clayden after good work from Afranes-Kesey (who appears to be nicknamed RAF)

    Finished 3-1

    reasonably comfortable but Osaghae made a handful of decent stops.

    Afrane-Kesey needs to tie his laces.

    Interesting that Oguntayo is described in the report as a trialist but not on the teamsheet.

    Colchester deserved to lose for wearing that terrible kit.

    Decent.  Not the biggest lad but he has a good brain on him and was tenacious.  I’d need to see him some more but he was certainly not bad at all

    Sorry but I'm pleased about the Colchester goal as Jake Hutchinson is an ex-pupil of mine...he was probably motivated to score against us as it would be one in the eye for me! His older brother is on loan at Forest Green Rovers, from Derby, and set up Josh Davison's goal against Oldham the other day.

    Obviously after a good game today, he's flying.

    Hi,

    I was at the match today as a photographer (I'm a nonleague photographer, but was ostensibly covering Charlton, so the photos are from that perspective), but I also wrote up a match report with quite a few pictures.

    Hopefully it's of interest to a few here:

    Regards,

    GRT
    Thanks for sharing. Nice work
