Our toughest opposition so far. Despite our clinical finishing against Oxford we will have to offer a bit more creativity to beat Portsmouth, another clean sheet may be beyond us. Aneke will have to start, and if Maddison doesn't start we will start to wonder what the problem is. It remains to be seen how Bowyer replaces Innis; probably depends on Matthews' fitness. It's time for Jonny Williams to step up to the plate, even if it means Aneke plays as lone striker.
Two of the three biggest clubs in League One meet on Saturday, with many predicting that this will be 1st v 2nd by the end of the season. The Mighty Unbeaten CAFC are without Inniss, Doughty (hamstring) and Watson (236 bookings) , no bad thing in the latter’s case, as we might finally get to see a footballer in MM who is even more elusive than @TC (Lovely Geezer) on this forum after we win. Personally I would start Charlie Barker alongside Famewo, rather than Oshilaja
Oshilaja is still injured, isn't he? I can't see Bowyer throwing Barker in against Pompey (away). Be either Gunter at CB (if Matthews is fit) or Pratley, with Barker on the bench.
I'm off to Gunwharf Quays for a new coat, then using a press pass from a Portsmouth mate of mine for the main event.
Has something gone over my head again? (and yes, I get the Heathrow gag now) or are Charlton not away at Portsmouth this weekend? Am I being tested? A census taker once tried to test me...
This one stays - as it correctly describes the fixture as an away game -and it was the first one posted by 2 minutes I'll leave the second one up as well for now, just for my twisted amusement
Bowyer has confirmed that Oshilaja isn't ready yet, he and Pearce will be back after yet another international break.
This is good news - but I looked around a while back and could not find the tool to allow me to merge threads. Are you sure I have that facility at my level of access? If so, I'd be grateful to learn how it's done
click on the boxes at the start of both threads you want to merge and a box pops up... select 'merge threads' and then click on go
Great stuff - many thanks AHLL I like to think I can usually work these technical things out, but that one got away from me. Still. I've got it now. Threads merged
