Blackwall was closed due to a breakdown a while ago. Might be a knock on affect

Apart from Jacko, how young is that bench!

The Red Robin

KAG not even on the bench after starting last week. Not saying he should be, just an observation.

Good to have Mag and Dasilva back, let's get another win.

I think it was bought at B&Q about two years ago

Apparently not fit. He's got a hamstring strain, I believe.

Edit: Ha! Just seen Forever's post. He's beaten me to it.

Jacko ahead of Dijksteel?

Robinson this week was telling us it was a hamstring.

Perhaps KAG doesn't know either?

Got a lot of time for Billy Clarke as people will well know from past matches yet during the warm up he just did an awful short pass.

God you should of heard the scream of frustration from him!!

Just got to the ground. Where is everybody ?

First eleven sorta picks itself now, and no apparent injuries to those eleven, amazing what a winning team does for injuries. However, wonder what does happen when Marshall and Reeves return - no obvious way in imo.

Great problem to have though!

I spent way too long googling for a Shakespeare quote about "this is the start!" as I have exhausted any remotely relevant quotes I have in my head. But I got nothing.

Anyway, commentary has begun! We have just one, solo commentator in the booth but that usually makes my life easier.

We are just minutes away....

My first of the season. Expect generous marking

KICK-OFF ⚽ | 1' Southend get the action under way.. #cafc

We win the toss and will play into the Jimmy Seed in the first half.

See betting thread. Quite a few of us with money on Charlton to win today. Boredraw or disappointing defeat therefore virtually inevitable.
