Matty Grimes does not succumb to the illnesses that affect normal mortals

He's a Terminator. We'll be back, to paraphrase Arnie.

Family zone will still be half empty!

Not today

 

[Sky Blue Wozza]

Always hate playing Charlton.

Terrible memories of this match which, some argue, hastened our decline.

 

[Sky Blue Wozza]

Anyway. Happy with a win today!

 

[Gynnsthetonic]

Tickets all gone now, should be a cracking afternoon

 

[Great_Expectations]

Always remember Jones being a tosser on the sidelines too.

Another reason I’m hoping for a big win.

 

[PVA]

Hearing from where?

His ears

Remember listening to this on the radio at my Grandads and being heartbroken when I was 10.

Not much to shout about since then (pre robins) and maybe explains why we all have PTSD about being top of the league!

Was at this one. Possibly a similar impact to what we did at Molineux?

Remember when they knocked us out of the cup at HR, that was a sore one to take.

Yeah, good comparison.
For some reason I was always used to sit in the Main Stand for cup games (normally in West Terrace) and remember going to this with my Dad. Previous season in the cup we’d beaten Macclesfield 7-0!

I got my first season ticket for the 01/02 season but had been to a small number of league and cup games before then. This was one of the cup games, I want to say a 3-0 win against Burnley was another?

I seem to remember 4-0. Think we did the same to (I think) Preston and just remember thinking how easy it would be to compete in the championship (or whatever it was then)… how wrong I was

Edit: I seem to remember wrong! Not an unusual occurrence. You were right, 3-0

Not today

Will be interesting to see. They are the first to not bother when it's cold and wet.

 

[JSL]

We need to maintain the 10 point gap to second with Stoke currently winning against Hull and potentially closing the gap to 7 points

They look good should have conceded a pen but playing well

 

[Liquid Gold]

Absolutely shitting this one for some reason

Doubt if Stoke are going to be the main threat long term.

 

[Gynnsthetonic]

Hope Leicester's manager is still in charge in January for the return fixture

 

[Sky_Blue_Daz]

Hearing Grimes is out then, Covid.

Matty grimes tears can cure COVID , shame is that he can’t cry

 

[Nick]

I wish I had the same confidence as some. Can see it being a tough game.

 

[SBT]

Martyn Waghorn was spotted at Ryton earlier this week

 

[Jamesimus]

Yeah same, think it will be harder for us than some people (including most Charlton fans!) think.

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

It will be

 

[shmmeee]

Tough game today. Theyll be looking to stop the rot and everyone ups their game against us.

 

[Sbarcher]

Coventry v Coventry today.

 

[jordan210]

 

[CovveeBreak]

Christ. That bench. January can’t come soon enough.

 

[Otis]

I wish I had the same confidence as some. Can see it being a tough game.

Definitely.

A scrappy 1 nil would be just fine

 

[Nick]

Rudoni on the right?

 

[jordan210]

Do we have any attacking threat on the bench

 

[shmmeee]

Rudoni on the right?

Could even be Eccles weirdly

 

[SeaSeeEffCee]

Better hope we’re winning 30 to go because there is nothing on that bench

 

[Gleneagles65]

It will be

Easy. Can’t see anything other than an easy win by 3 goals+.

 

[PVA]

That's a very weak bench.

Probably going to see Brau come on as a winger, plus Andrews wide or at 10
