    Can't complain about the same starting 11 for the 8th game running, although Jonjo looked a little drained come the end of the Soton match, and Sam too.. hope they've got it in them today! COYR.
    I'll go for a 1674 attendance guess, leaving just 126 seats not taken on the day. :~) for us... not overall.
  • Pre Match update....

    Charlton will be preparing for the game from the "away" dressing room, this area will also be used during the 15 minute break in play entitled "half time" I will be back with any further news....
  • My son is playing cricket this afternoon, an ace typer, so my updates will be slow and contain typos...but for those who don't yet know, it's on the wireless at BBC London 94.9, I also think it's on BBC London digital, probably a Sky channel, and maybe it will be possible to get the commentary on the internet abroad by going to BBC London and 'listen online', may well be possible in GB too, and there must also be local East Anglian coverage as well, which may be accessible online or to people with sooper dooper wireless sets.
  • Charlton's opponents today are Norwich City - known to their supporters as the "Canaries", in tribute to the famous islands where their chair lady buys her tomatoes from.
  • 42 turnstiles are in operation around the ground. These are all manned by members of the same family.
  • In keeping with tradition, the object of todays game will be for each team to try to place a small spherical object made of leather (a "ball") between three posts - two vertical posts joined by a longer horizontal one (the "goal").

    At the end of the match the team with the most "goals" is declared the winner.

    More news to follow as it happens ...

  • If anyone is listening to the commentary today and can provide regular updates for us stuck at work / abroad, it would be much appreciated
  • I think their injured players are injured. No point naming a fella with a broken leg in your starting 11, is there?

    However, if they are no longer injured then they may be in the starting 11.

    Hope this helps.
