    I will be a sad Charlton fan when Doc does leave. Top bloke.

    Just two strikers in 16 man match day squad.
    Grant is a striker too. 

    Granted but more likely he's playing wide in a three isn't it?

    On the left and through the middle as well.

    No Docherty from the Cheltenham game... Swapped for Apter
    Interesting it's Doc and not JRC that misses out. 
    Feels like it means there’s a market for Doc and not JRC, which with our squad limit issues is ultimately going to be the decider on movement

    good to see Apter is back 'in favour'
    More like a formation he can play in - even less of a wing back than TC.

    Interesting that Doc is there, but didn't make the 20. I imagine he'll be moving on soon,  but was there in case of any last minute injuries. 

    A top pro, so what you'd expect of him.

    Derby fans not rating their starting XI. The type of reaction you’d see from us occasionally last season and then go and win the game (Leicester away, Middlesbrough away…)
    They had Ozoh on loan from Palace last year - thought he looked pretty good. Remember him being physically and technically levels above Anderson in one of the games, which was when I finally realised that Anderson probably would not make it with us in the Championship.

    JRC is a lot more versatile

    Doc must be off 
    Nope.


    Strange that his watch is showing 6.30...must have been "in the building" very early this morning...or not today...🤔

    Super sleuth! Shame the date is too pixelated.

    Do feel we play better when Doherty is in the side despite his limitations. Coventry can hopefully make a impact first few games wasn't convinced by him last season

    Should be Grant’s 100th competitive appearance for Charlton?
    I'm sure during his first spell with us "competitive" would have been stretching the description of how we were performing.

    I think too many are jumping to conclusions re: Doc. I think we the squad size we have at the moment someone was going to miss out in midfield and I suspect it's him because of Mwamba's showing in pre-season/dynamism (I thought Mwamba would miss out personally) and JRC's flexibility to play as a 6, 8, 10, and RB. 

    That being said, Kaminski looks to almost certainly be off.

    Good team, it's the one I'd have started with as well. Only question is whether Grant or TC start on the right. Either way, I expect them to swap sides throughout the game.

    COYR.

    We get all this stuff about improving fans match day experience. How about improving our experience by putting locks on the toilet doors? Had three months to replace a lock on an East Stand toilet door. How hard can it be? Fancy new dugouts and seat numbers on seats but toilet door locks?

    I'll take three.



    But I'll settle for one point if needs be.

    Playing devils advocate, could that also be 13:05 if the watch is upside down? 

    Bit of a stretch granted!

    Must admit to feeling nervous, do like the line up though lots of attacking options off the bench
