  • Solly back could be our lucky omen?
    Lets hope
  • No Cort. Injured?
  • My thoughts would be squad rotation...Obika back in on Tuesday....Petrucci on bench Tuesday with Reza and Church dropped would be my opinion......could be totally wrong of course!!

    Who is this Solly? Youth team? Network player?

    Petrucci not even in the 18 but there with the squad. Seems an odd loan move.

    Perhaps Petrucci will play another under 21 game or replace AA on Tuesday, if not able to play
    I reckon Riga was as unimpressed as the fans with Petrucci's effort at getting back to stop the Reading goal

    Would much prefer to see Solly out until Pre-Season though
  • Seven ex academy in the squad

    We are officially the English Barcelona now. ;-)

    Great to see.
  • We must not risk Chris Solly if it leads to a setback.

    Of course not, but if his return to the bench has given the squad the same 'lift' that it has given us, it's a great selection.

  • He will probably give Solly a game for the under 21 next week if OK
  • dont forget match kicks off 7 minutes past 3 today....I will be observing the minutes silence.

  • perhaps with 10 minutes to go and us winning 1-0, he will bring Solly on and push Wilson in front of him to close down their left side.
  • Chris Solly, Solly
    He's only five foot three
    Better than John Terry
    Chris Solly, Solly
  • pitch may well suit our new passing game.....I reckon we will nick a point....but hoping for 3....addicks have at least 2000 fans there today....may be as many as 2200

    Great news on chris. Thats made my day.

    Its gonna keep him motivated to be back in a match day squad
  • Would feel happier with Obika in the squad but other than that I like the line-up. Great to see Solly on the bench, hope it's not another false dawn. He returned in time for Brighton last time and it made the world of difference.
  • Could it be that Brighton agreed to release Obika back to Spurs as part of the Stephens deal. But stipulated that he could not play against them?
  • I actually don't see it as great news re Solly. The same thing happened before, didn't it ? Straight in, no warm up games like you would normally.expect etc

    I suspect he can play. But with pain and not at 100%, and the liklihood is that he'll never be able to get that knee right. Hope I'm wrong
  • Last time solly played for us .... Was a win against Brighton!

    Sure there is that risk. Ive heard his problems compared to those of ledley king, inability to recover after an aggravation.

    Im hopeful like ledley, it can be managed over long term and he can play many many more years. One of the most composed footballers ive ever seen, such a good game head.
  • Ok guys n gals.....we have a few minutes until we remember those that died at Hillsborough....even at home it would be good if we could observe the silence......You'll never walk alone my thoughts are with the families of all those who died......RIP

    You'll never walk alone! RIP
  • Apologies up front for any typos and spelling mistakes
  • Listening to 96 names being read out on the radio. Utterly haunting.

    God bless them and their families.

    Won't mean a thing on a wider scale, but in a minute I'll close this match thread for two minutes and then re-open again

    RIP
  • Let's go
  • Well done AFKA, nice touch COYA!
  • addicks all in Red today

  • Aa has it.....tackled and they come forward
