Charlton have very short memories

[Mid Sussex Royal]

Lots of Charlton fans on twitter calling us tinpot and back at our proper level. Disappointing as always found them an ok bunch.

I think both clubs are of similar size/support etc. Yes they've won stuff but so long ago that no one can likely be alive to remember it...

I'd view them as one of the most comparable clubs. If we're tinpot so are they.

I don't even know what tinpot or plastic means. When a load of fair weather fans come and support us in the Premier League, perhaps it's a fair label. But fans turning up every week to fight for their club while we struggle at the bottom of L1? Doesn't get much more real and authentic than that.

[Snowflake Royal]

It's just idiots repeating something they've heard other idiots say with no comprehendion for what it means.

[Sutekh]

Expecting an unchanged team from Reading today - so probably at least 3 random changes then.

Really? We play 5 games in the next 2 weeks, I think it would be pretty sensible to put a bit of rotation in.

Unless there are any injuries or fitness problems, there's no point changing the starting XI.

[Mid Sussex Royal]

If the players are able to I'd go full strength today and Tues and rotate at Pompey pending the Port Vale game

[Brogue]

It’s the one advantage of having a very young squad that players can recuperate faster. Players should be used to Saturday Tuesday Saturday Tuesday tbh

[Snowflake Royal]

It's going to be interesting.

I think Selles rotated his squad with Savage, Mola and Kelv coming in v Stevenage, expecting it to be a defeat.

He then goes and gets the win, so why change the side? Although Stevenage are a different threat to most teams. And he didn't use many subs, with the waterlogged pitch likely to have been really energy sapping on the legs.

I think we'll see at least two of Mukairu, Dorsett and Craig back in. And maybe Monlouis too.

[Sutekh]

Note - Green Park is flooding so anyone going by train should wear wellies - probably.

[Brogue]

[Sutekh]

Unchanged then.

[morganb]

Monlouis out, Wareham in - on the bench

[Snowflake Royal]

Bit surprised they're all fully recovered from the slog, but does make sense to not change a winning side.

[Snowflake Royal]

They are very on it. Playing about 20% harder and faster than us.

[Sutekh]

10 minutes of Charlton playing so far, no sign of the Royals at all yet

[Pepe the Horseman]

Ref is fcuking useless.

[Snowflake Royal]

Ref is fcuking useless.

Yes. Stoppage for a shoelace on one side and not the other. High foot to one side and not the other.

Fk at a corner for absolutely nothing.

[Snowflake Royal]

oxf*rd sake, handball for being shoved over and you blow for it 2 challenges and pass later.


Jesus, you never see those two handed shoves in the back by defenders given
