If it snows we win !2

Frustatingly going to be about 5 miles away (instead of the usual 75) and probably won't even be able to catch a stream. Hoping that means we get a famous victory, even if I don't get to see it. If all our defenders are fit I'd stick Ramsay at LCB, Azeez is their dangerman but will constantly cut inside so a defender with a strong right foot could be handy1

Not sure I’ve ever dreaded a game this much. See nothing but a big win for them.0
-
Hoping for a win and a bit of luck that we never seem to get when we play them.1

Get chambers in and put TC back up top - asking him to defend has killed our attacking play and ability to get up the pitch3

While there's life there's hope, and IF Nathan gets his starting Xl and tactics right then there is a slim hope we can get something from this
Derby's often see the formbook fly away out the window and the royal 'we' are hoping that Saturday's game properly overturns the form
Thing is Nathan and the starters MUST hit the ground well ready to rumble, else, like Tuesday, our first half performance will once more resemble a shambolic pub team
Let's hope Lloyd is fit to start, though it is a sad reflection that the team's fortunes are so dependant on one player.
As a baseball commentator might have it .. 'time for y'all to step up to the plate' and get a result at the rusty toolbox0 -
Another battering
The filth will put 3 past us.0 -
Can’t see past a comfortable win for them 3 or 4-0. But you never know!0
-
If two WBs can last 90 it will transform our play, give CMs an outlet, but I suspect we will be 4-4-2 or 4-3-3 or an asyymmetric version of any0

The pouring rain and being kept in for 45 minutes after being thumped 3-0TootingRedArmy said:So, we’re off to Millwall. A place where we haven’t won for so long that most of us are struggling to remember when it was..... “yes, Charlton did once beat Millwall allegedly.”
On paper? Forget it. Form book? Burn it. Our record there? Honestly, it points to there being no point our players even getting off the team bus. BUT… and this is the bit football lives for that’s not how the game works. There’s no such thing as a guaranteed victory in football ! Nathan Jones won’t have thrown in the towel, nor will Lloydy Jones & rest of our players either, and football has a long proud history of laughing in the face of logic..... Just when everything says “no chance,” football has a strange way of going against the form book.
This is the fixture I’ve been looking forward to for weeks, an away day at The Den. Backs against the wall, nobody giving us a prayer, everyone expecting the worst......why not now? If we only turned up when the odds looked good, what would be the point? This is football. This is Charlton and maybe, just maybe, this is the time we finally slay the Lions in their Den and finally get rid of the Millwall hoodoo..... What’s not to look forward to?
yeh first two are a given , third you maybe right but then maybe not, isn't that why we carry on going whatever logic dictates...I prefer the glass half full approach even when it means getting drunk on false optimism0 -
I offer my usual response to this fixture...

You bastards better tell me when it's over, and it's safe to come out this time!0 -
We never turn up ,Millwall never score more the 1 or 2.Be 4 nil to them the gift of Charlton keep on giving0
-
3-0, maybe 4-0 defeat, and a big thread about how our fans were treated.1
-
If he starts Gillesphey and Anderson I will despair.
I agree it might be 4-3-3 to enable TC to be a winger.

Just like everyone else it seems I can’t see beyond a proper good hiding and agree with the popular 3/4-0 forecasts. I just hope we don’t pick up anymore injuries or red cards as this game won’t decide our season1
-
As other pundits have opined,why sit back to an inevitable defeat? Up and at 'em with emphasis on how WE play not them. so 3-4-3

Clarke Coventry Rankin-Costello

Worth a try especially as everyone else is EXPECTING a thrashing what ever team we put out!2 -
The time is now. Jammy 2-1 win for the Addicks.

Any news on Bell? Without him and potentially Jones, we are incredibly vulnerable at the back. Desperately want to avoid defeat but no matter how positive I try to be I cannot see anything other than a loss here. Hope it's not another late winner to endure. UTA.1

With Zach back as cover, could Gough play 6 and Coventry 8?
But we desperately need pace in the middle. I'd give Karoy another chance with two outlets outside him.0 -

I have gone to every game at the Den old and new since 1988
Apart from one as I was stuck on the A13 in the snow
Sorry but I’m going Saturday hopefully the boy breaks the curse 😂
3-0 Millwall0 -
Don't forget it is 12.30 KO and it is live on Sky2
-
A demoralising but customary defeat incoming.
Think we'll set up as per usual 5-3-2
If chambers starts can see TC starting up top with leaburn/dykes and drifting out wide left and giving width like last season and getting the extra body into midfield.

I understand the fashion among the in-people is to use a towel folded into a swan shape.DamoNorthStand said:Trying to decide whether to use a cheese grater to wipe my arse on Saturday0 -
Its also on Sky Sports Football, rather than Sky Sports Plus, so there will be no stream available via. CharltonTV0

I agree elf’s - the omens look so stacked against us I think we will do em - TC could be like a man possessed if freed from defending and I have a strong feeling Bell is gonna rise from the physio bench - we rested players Tuesday as well - I think NJ has been treating this game with the importance many managers in the past haven’tElfsborgAddick said:I don't do blind faith or have rose tinted bins, but this is one of the rare occasions I have a strong feeling we're going to win.The odds and form are against us but I live in hope.Should we do the business can everybody remember what they have posted recently about Jones.1 -
This is no time for experimenting - we need to put out the team we started the season with as far as possiblestjohnshill said:I really hope we do not play 3-5-2. That will play into Millwalls hands. Long balls to Cooper, Taylor and Crama is not a recipe for success.
Millwalls weakness is balls in behind those big lads and between the lines. 3-4-2-1 which we played in the second half on Tuesday would help exploit their weakness but also keep us strong defensively.
Rivalry and the 30 year record aside, a point at The Den would be a good one. Yes it would mean we haven't beaten them again but a point away at a top 8 team, which sadly they are, is a good one.
Just imagine the scenes if we do win.........COYR!!!0 -
He can't control the ball and he can't pass accurately. And his team mates know it.There were several times on Tuesday where he was free in the middle and Clarke or Ramsay decided not to pass to him. He is sadly a liability at this level.Gisappointed said:With Zach back as cover, could Gough play 6 and Coventry 8?
