Some things in life can irritate you. I keep feeling confident that we will win 3-0 or 3-1. And then, I have moments where I am thinking "we won't score and we will lose 2-0". I'm not usually like this.
No offence to them, but sad state of affairs when we are so clearly full of nerves and trepidation about Yeovil visiting The Valley.
Which is why I feel stupid for feeling like this is more in the "must not lose" category more than "must win". Looking at Millwall and Barnsley's fixtures tomorrow night (Wigan [A] & Burnley [H] respectively), they'll be lucky to take anything from those. A draw with Yeovil in that situation keeps everyone at an arm's length and we can really push on next week against Barnsley.
Lose (by two goals) and the others win, we'll go bottom...
Miller will be a big miss for them. 10 league goals so far in the season, the rest of their remaining strikeforce have managed just 13 combined (Hayter 5, Ralls 3, Moore 2, Grant 2, Lawrence 1).
Really looking forward to this game. Hoping and praying for a Charlton win. Desperately need this one. We need our defence to be on the ball in and around our penalty area as Yeovil will be up for it and our strikers to hit the target enough times to cause Yeovil to not attack us so much.

0-1 loss. All Yeovil have to do is bring their usual game with them with a keen eye on keeping us out which is not a hard task, first goal wins it if it's for them.
A renegade terrorist group (Charlton Athletic Moaners Partnership) kidnap Simon Church, and hold him hostage on a paradise desert island until the season ends. Forced to play strikers who might score, we play Obika and Reza, and the former gets the only goal of the game to ensure our customary 1-0 Tuesday win, and generate 1000 'we are staying up' posts on CL.

I would start with Obika and Sordell up front. Swap Reza for one of these two after about 60 minutes.
Just please please no Danny Green anywhere near the team. I think Church has had too many chances now.
Four games to play and five-eight points ahead would look very healthy for us. Which is why I feel stupid for feeling like this is more in the "must not lose" category more than "must win".

CAFC 1 v Yeovil Town 1
As far as I know he's still at Blackpool and has never played for Yeovil in his career. He even played for Blackpool against the Glovers two days ago.
Reza & Obika with the goals.
We might be up for it but cannot score. 0-0 at best which is not good enough for us.
We need three points from this match.
