    I'm in New York so any updates much appreicated !

    COME ON YOU REDS

    What a disappointment that Pards has gone with Iwelumo and not Varney alongside Gray.
  • LoOkOuTLoOkOuT
    Yeah, he obviously takes no notice of my opinion!!!
  • ISawLeaburnScoreISawLeaburnScore
    for me that's an incredible decision

    According to the OS Big Chris offers more defensively.
  • vancouveraddickvancouveraddick
    obviously pards thinks that Big Chris might offer more in what's probably going to be a physical contest - Not sure I agree
  • ISawLeaburnScoreISawLeaburnScore
    Gray is good enough in the air defensively

    As I said in my previous post on the which pair to field... we should be playing our own football, not chopping and changing with a view to a physical game we can't match even with Iwelumo

    Bad decision for me, tough on Luke and I hope it's not one to rue with a hoof-filled evening

    COYR! Absolutely crucial to win tonight!

    Agree ISaw – we should play our own game, especially with Iwelumo's presence on the pitch usually resulting in a long-ball bore fest.

    Agree totally on the playing our own football especially at home - I think pards is pensive about this game as we've got so many games at home against the top teams he wants to kick off with a win here - he probably doesn't care how we get it and thus doesn't want to take any chances. I still would have played Varney though.

    Problem is, Big Chris and Varney hasn´t looked like a great partnership. Big Chris has played better on his own, and Varney´s best with McCloud.
    Maybe, Big Chris and Gray looked good in training.

    Tough on Varney, but the end of the day, Iwelumo has 9 from 28, Varney 5 from 19, and you have to start the new signing.

    Varney to come on for BigChris second half probs


    COME ON YOU ADDICKS!!

    nights like tonight where the ground can really be made up, tough trips for Watford and West Brom and a chance to draw level with Stoke... genuine hopes for promotion means these chances need to be taken sooner or later

    I've managed to get TalkSport online but no commentary. Apparently we had a couple of half chances but otherwise not much going on.

    No can do overseas. Talk Sport works for me though. Fuller just had an effort under the crossbar. we're getting more into it though. sam had a good effort but deflected off.
  • Czech_AddickCzech_Addick
    Stoke had a half-chance but we've had a few good ones, starting to break down a resilient Stoke side according to the TalkSport update.
  • brownybrowny
    too many overseas addicks....im jealous
  • BlackForestRedsBlackForestReds
    BBC suggests we have 62% of the possession...
  • ISawLeaburnScoreISawLeaburnScore
    started well, sounds like stoke are coming back into it after we fluffed a few early chances
  • brownybrowny
    we always seem to have most of the posession at home but very rarely take advantage.
  • brownybrowny
    plenty of corners.cmon Charlton.........ooooooooohh off the line by stoke defender
  • brownybrowny
    we need to score while we are on top!
