Think we need to have as strong a defensive shape as possible. And as much experience on the pitch as we can get
Kaminski
Burke Jones Gillesphey
Clarke Coventry Chambers
Costello Docherty
Leaburn KelmanWouldn’t mind Dykes for Leaburn just for a bit more experience, but I like the Leaburn & Kelman partnership that seemed to be developing.Midfield is defensive, but plan should be to keep it tight and then get Carey and TC on from the bench to win it (*try and rescue a point)2 -
Even when we are on top, something happens to tip it the scumbags way.1

I have seen Charlton win twice at Millwall, Dave Shipperly and Peter Shaw scoring in a two nil win and by the same score in the snow, both were against the worst two Millwall sides I have ever seen, that will not be the case on Saturday. I can't for the life of me see Charlton getting anything other than a slap, The team? I want Chambers to be a ready fit but I think that will take time so I don’t think he will start, so the only player worth the name of 'threat' Tyreece Campbell, will start off as wing back. I didnt think the midfield were that bad the other night, but I would change Anderson for Rankin Costello. Up front it couldn't have been much worse but Nathan Jones might think that the physical nature of Leaburn and Dykes is what's required. Taking all that into account there has been mention of a formation change, if that's the case couldn't think of a better game to try it in, NOT. As in all these Millwall games, if you don't match they and their fans intensity then you will get rolled over, badly, that sadly, is my prediction.0

Gillesphey to start LWB just to throw everyone0

People who haven’t put this game as one of their predictions are disrespecting the competition by not taking it seriously.2

But would you take that experience again in return for a win - the Devil is asking!AFKABartram said:I remember having food poisoning in Egypt. The most agonising cramps, sickness and diarrhoea imaginable. Begging and bartering for medicine. Having as much control over my bowels as Stevie Wonder would driving an F1 car. The towel-art swan looking like it had been dredged from a muddy canal.I suspect I’ll look back on that experience more fondly than I will this game.1 -
Fucking hell everyone, they're not that good. I know, I know, recent history, the wood over us, blah blah. But...they're not that good.7

I was at the Den that day to witness our 2-0 win. I seem to remember it was a bit on the chilly side but red hot on the pitch ! You know who you are Kim Grant ! Chants of we beat the scum 2-0 ringing out as we walked out the ground & then suddenly surrounded by 50 year old blokes who decided they didn’t like being called scum for some reason ! Anyway we lived to tell the tale & looked forward to the next victory against them…..
can it be Saturday? Probably not but always expect the unexpected when you support the mighty reds. And our run has to end sometime right ? We don’t score many these days so let’s go for a 1-0 late winner. At 72 who knows how many more I’ll be seeing so I’m thinking we are by law of averages due another win !1 -
This is going to be a very hard watch1

Dreading it. 4-0 defeat.0

I wont be there either ........first time since Dec 1995 in the snow. And you know what happened that evening.LargeAddick said:I can’t see NJ switching to a back four. Suspect it’ll be Clarke, Ramsay, Burke, Gilly, Chambers. Switch Lloydy for Burke if he’s fit. I’m being wildly optimistic and going for a 2-1 away win mainly because I won’t be there for the first time since about 1980 so they are sure to do it out of spite.
So you know who to thank when we come home winners on Sat 😉0 -
In previous seasons id agree but since we lost to Wrexham, there's little to show we could pull off an upset of any kind.Lordflashheart said:Do you know what, it would be so Charlton to win on Saturday, after such a dismal run - yeah I’m going for a CAFC win (and I’m there Saturday)1 -

My peerless optimism is starting to run slightly dry at the moment but as others have said it would be very Charlton to nick it.
If we play four at the back then I hope for the life of me Macca is not starting LCB - love the guy but in a two CB set up left footer is less essential and we have considerably better options.
But realistically Jones does not pick this fixture to abandon his formation. Think Chambers comes straight in, Macca at LCB, Jones or Burke central depending on whether Jones is is fit and then hopefully Clarke RWB and Ramsay RCB.
Cov is a no brainer, would love to see JRC back starting (been a bit weird from Jones to jokingly say he f'd up not playing him more and then freeze him out again), Carey has looked back to his best self on the ball and driving.
Would probably start Leaburn and Kelman, with TC and Dykes to come on at 60 and take advantage of tired legs, but of course if there is an opportunity for Matty Godden to fully announce his return with a golf swing in front of the away end at the Den then would absolutely love to see it2 -
Look, I mean, first and foremost, you can't defend like that at this level. That'll keep me awake at night because I thought we played well enough to get something out of the game. We were compact, our discipline was good, we stuck to our game-plan. Could we have done more in the final third? Possibly. We took our goal very well, with a little bit of luck I thought we could have pushed on from there because I thought our work-rate was excellent...
4-1 Millwall.2
