Bristol Rovers v Charlton Athletic. Tuesday 22nd November 2016. 7.45 MATCH THREAD.

I have put this up rather early, as I have to go an cook, and may not be back until the last minute.

Red Midland is unfortunately unable to to the match thread.
He will be missed but I intend to be here anyway, I might even be able to get some help from PaddyP17.

If Paddy is able to help he will report from the Charlton feed, I will report as usual from the opposition feed.
if Paddy is unable to help out I will report from our feed, clear as mud huh?

Apologies in advance for all the inevitable typo's and slowness.

Please all chip in, especially putting up the teams when announced.

I want Kevin Nugents Red and White Army to win this one.

Respect to the travelling faithful who have endured the horrible weather to be at the memorial ground this evening.

  • Thanks for taking up the match thread Seth. Will be following from France.
  • I was correct on Facebook.
    Rudd isn't playing.
  • CHARLTON | Phillips, Foley, Bauer, Pearce, Fox, Crofts (c), Ulvestad, Chicksen, Lookman, Magennis, Ajose. #cafc #CAFCLive
  • CHARLTON SUBS | Mitov, Lennon, Konsa, Teixeira, Jackson, Hanlan, Botaka. #cafc #CAFCLive
  • Chicksen starting on the left of midfield by the looks of it, still no start for Botaka...

    Is Botaka not allowed to start or something.

    Nope and there must be 3 centre backs on the bench at ALL times.
  • So who's actually playing where? I literally can't work it out.
    Who's playing on the right?

    4-4-2 Lookman right, Chicksen left is my guess

    Exactly, absolute bellends. Surely one of the kids on the bench would do them good.

    Agreed, but Lookman isn't usually as good on the right.

    Put Botaka on the right and Lookman on the left.
    I don't know why this isn't obvious to them?
  • Rudd and Novak join Holmes and Solly on the crock table. Expect an announcement soon as to how we misunderstood the need to have sufficient squad members to allow sufficient cover for injuries.

    If you made this stuff up, no one would believe it.

    It's not great but in truth Rovers are lucky to still be alive. They have been through the shit big time since they left Eastville. Credit to them and their loyal fanbase for keeping it going.

    Vegetarian Chilli.

    Eat your heart out Delaware Catering, eat your heart out Tony Keohane and your fourteen chips for £3!
  • Why 3 CBs again? Nugent obviously doesn't want the job.
  • Thanks for taking up the match thread seth plum and anyone who provides any up dates.
    I thought this one might have been postponed after all this bad weather but I guess it gives us a chance of another 3 MASSIVE points!!!...good to see Chickson given a run out, hopefully with something to prove might be a bonus for us.
    COYR..........

    Lookman leaves a dirty great big hole for Fox to cover when he is on the left.

    Probably don't trust both of them to track back.

    Hasn't he said he doesn't want it?

    Sorry, I can only offer boiled potatoes
  • Chicksen likely to be LM so Lookie right. WTF are we still selecting 3 CBs on bench and no youth like Aribo or RCC. These guys will be on short contracts and will not re-sign if mediocre players denying them a start.

    Why the fuck do we keep naming tex as a substitute when we know we won't fucking use him.
    Give one of the younger players a chance if only for the experience

    Selecting 3 CBs so there is no chance they will have to put tex on. "Put him on the bench, the actors will think he is available for selection"

    And when he did, I wished he hadn't.
