    To be fair this starting 11 was the one which started the second half well, and got the equaliser. If Jackson had been in CM, in a more defensive role he wouldn't have been there to score the equaliser

    We have the dream team of El Tel and Greg Stubley on commentary tonight.

    The referee is Gavin Ward.

    Terry has had some very kind words to say about Richard Murray, and rightfully so. As Terry says, for whatever we may disagree with him on over the last couple years, he has done some great things for the club and no one would wish cancer on their worst enemy (paraphrasing).

    Needn't have bothered opening the away end, should've sat them in the lower west down that end

    Unchanged XI ought to give everyone (Slade included) a chance to see if Saturday's 1st half was a one-off or an indication of a bigger problem.

    Rubbish. I have spoken to Katrien and she says there are 20,000 inside already and another 10,000 outside. So all good.

    If we hadn't been so rash as to ditch the sofa then they could have sat on that

    It's worth noting that the Euro U-19s ended on July 21 for Lookie. He reported for training the following Monday (July 25), and played 20 minutes against Ipswich the following evening (26/7). He has not had much time off, and his season will run June (when U-19 training started) to May this year.

    Roger Johnson LOUDLY booed when his name was announced. Brilliant.

    Charlton 1-2 between Holmes and JJ down left, tried to play Fox through but just too long for Fox before he could cross.

    Sofa end in my lounge is only a third full. Think queues at loo and bar here, may be bigger than at the Valley.

    Ajose unlucky, Holmes and Fox combined well down the left, Ajose takes it past a couple players and hits it low and hard, keeper down to save

    Could have gone tonight but opted not to as I've had a crazy busy week and I didn't think it'd be much good. But as today has gone on I've felt more and more like I'm missing out. Guess I just can't can't stop.. like a drug to me.

    Training ground set play, Fox just gets under it after Crofts dummy

    Holmes got to edge of the box, shaped to shoot but played to Ajose who had it taken off his toes
