Look at it from the other way round, who are the team that are head and shoulders above us that are going to win? All four are capable which is why they are up there. We have under performed all season so are at least equal to the others. We also have the bollocks to perform when needed.
Just believe and get out there and support the team. We can beat them all.
No. If we do I'll be ecstatic, if we don't we'll still have finished better than I expected at the start of the season, and hopefully with more reasons to be positive long term.
Don't know if anyone else has noticed but that is also the exact chronological order each team were last in the championship (or English second tier for pedants)
It's not a 25% chance. It's not like drawing one raffle ticket from four in a hat. The bookies won't have all teams on equal odds.
Bookies' odds are determined by other factors besides the teams' relative chances, like how much money is being staked on each team.
I think 1 in 4 for each of the teams is near enough in this case.
What are the bookies offering, then?
The bookies make a book based on what their specialist think, and then the odds change as people place bets. Someone has given the current odds above. I’m happy to have taken 16/1 when we were in a slump.
Maybe they are four equal-ish teams, and it all depends who performs on the day. But I think if Bowyer has them fired up we have a slightly better than 25% chance personally. 35 or even 40% maybe?
So you James you think he warrants a first team place , in any charlton team ?
Personally... Yes. If it means our actual form/quality players don't go into a much tougher and more significant match carrying fatigue/injuries then by all means he should be playing.
I'm worried about our fire power. I thought for a couple of games that Zyro might be the answer - he scored more goals per minute than our other options, and looked to be decent, and improving. But after his last few performances it seems he isn't.
That leaves dear old Josh, who we know will try hard, and Ajose who is still something of an enigma. Neither are what you would call prolific.
I guess it's a great opportunity for them to put their partnership properly on the map. Let's hope they rise to the occasion(s).
Wow some people have a very simple sad life. One second after posting and due to an unfortunate auto spell check there are hundreds of train spotters jumping on it! Hahah!
Never spotted a train, not simple, not sad. It’s called piss taking which is much better when received with less sensitivity. Haha. As for the play offs, I think we’ll WIN them.

I am putting this in your Christmas stocking this year.
PS- I am just teasing you!

Rotherham: 30%
Charlton: 25%
Scunthorpe: 23%
Shrewsbury: 22%
Why Rotherham are the slightly favourites and Shrewsbury the outsiders, especially given League positions, I'm not sure.
Shay Given's the man to listen to.

Charlton 3/1
Scunthorpe 100/30
Shrewsbury 7/2

I fear he could fuck it up I the playoffs. Any manager who lets Kaikai anywhere near his first team, is completely of his fecking trolley !
Final losers 35%
Promoted from this shit heap of a league 35%
100% Roland Out
Fosu makes all the difference
