    Over the past 2 weekends there have been a number of players making their debuts AND even scoring. 

    Ours don't even make the bench.

    Bang on. It's only ever at Charlton that players "have to settle in", it's pathetic
  • Ha ha ha ha......

    We sell our youngsters & then the ones we take on loan don't even make the bench. 

    You couldn't make it up. 
    Didnt think you wanted the loan players anyway... Make your mind up?

    Clare - Inniss - Famewo
    Dobson
    Matthews - Morgan - Gilbey - B.Taylor
    Washington - Aneke

    Henderson, Purrington, Pearce, Jaiyesimi, Lee, Leko, WATSON FFS

    Can see that Watson was a very late addition.
    That's 8 of the 11 that started the first game of the season.  Only 2 of the 8 players we have signed since then play 🙄

    Loaning out Davison, yes yes I know but.., looks a bit silly now. 
    A bit like letting the transfer window shut & then letting one of your 4 strikers leave without replacing them.....(Schwartz)

    Wonder of Clare or Matthews playing RWB.
    Maybe there's a bit of plan here? 

    Jacko has got Blackett-Taylor as the attacking LWB. 
    Mathews becomes the defensive wing back on right side.

    Matthews is decent enough at RCB in this formation and can cover and interchange with the more athletic Clare getting forward?

    Maybe whoever is buying him will loan us a player.

    How can neither John or Castillo be worth a place on the bench?

    Fucking hell that team makes grim reading.

    Feels a bit flat with our only player of late who knows where the goal is, being out the picture. 

    We have 2 left backs/wing backs but gone for a right footed forward in that position. Feels a bit Bowyer that!

    Matthews, so good at RCB he let a Hartlepool player breeze past him to score the other night. On top of that, probably the worst attacking full-back we've ever had at Charlton

    Adam Matthews starting and Ben Watson still making the squad after the Hartlepool game, and no John or Castillo, what's the fucking point?
    We won't see Watson play tonight. He's the touchline coach. :wink:


  • I can see Lee coming off the bench as a striker tonight
  • is Burstow injured then? 

    we have no forwards on the bench.

    I didn't but once they're here I'd want to see them play.

    I was going to post on the pre match thread that I bet they wont be playing after what Jackson said on Friday....but thought even our manager wouldn't be that stupid.

    Scrap what I have said. It looks like we are selling him.
    Yup seems so

    Minto, Brown and Curbishley have been subject to a late bid from Brentford TV so have been given the night off to go and talk to them.

    When Bowyer only named 5 subs on the first game of the season against Sunderland lots of posters said he was making a statement to the owner.

    Perhaps these players have been forced on Jackson.. 😉

    I can understand Jacko giving players last chances to impress, but I had already written off Matthews being here next season. Maybe Jacko hasn't written him off yet.

    No, signing for Palace.  :anguished:



    PS: I don't know either!

    what?! we're talking about Burstow yeah? He's barely played a game. Premiership?! f@ck me, football is mental.

    Brilliant that the two premier league lads are ready to play football straight away.

    Madness to let Burstow go when we have no striker option on the bench

    How many teams sign players and then don't even put them in the squad? Sorry to be doom and gloom but will be amazed if we get anything tonight with our away form. Prove me wrong Charlton 
    New manager, same old shit.

    Maybe it was a choice between Matthews and Gunter - what would be your choice?
