    But who would have the courage to put their mortgage on survival or even on a West Ham win at the Valley on Saturday?

    Any takers? Thought not.

    Dont sound like they are confident,does it?
    I fancy a very tough n tight game but think (and hope) we will sneak it.
    Still a long way to go and tonights game between Watford n Wigan could prove vital.

    if wigan go 9 points clear with 11 games to go it will be incredibly difficult.

    they have the Geordies on saturday at home which is winnable for them

    I was supremely confident up until a few days ago..I don't think the Spain trip was the right idea. In a way that's rewarding the players for what basically has been a shyte season. I guess I am always pessimistic when it comes to a big game and a win is needed. Isn't that's what being a Charlton fan is all about. I hope I shake off this feeling soon.

    hopefully the trip was about work not play, it was billed as a mid season pre season..

    can see your point, but i don't think that was the motive. The motive i reckon was to get a change of surroundings, up the tempo of training and to try and foster increased unity amongst the squad. As long as no one cracked anyone with a golf club, hopefully that was achieved.

    we take a spain trip and morale seems high with all the go karting etc.

    curbs makes Hammers run around in the rain all day every day and players start moaning.

    i know which scenario i prefer.

    well actually that alleged incident seemed to do wonders last night for Liverpool and the players involved!
