Addicks v's Fleetwood match thread 04/02/17

Redmidland

Good afternoon folks and welcome to today's match thread. Before we start I have a short announcement to make, today will be my last match thread for the foreseeable future. My role at work has changed and as from next weekend I start travelling out of the UK. I'm off to work in Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong and China during Feb and March, then off to India and other parts of Asia, Africa and South America for the next couple of years. I hope I may be able to meet some of the CL readers who live out in those countries, just in-box me if you fancy a pint (wine in my case). I will come back and do some match threads when I can, but for now, after 6 years, I will be stepping down from the regular updating.

Right now onto today, Can we continue our unbeaten run? Can we inflict a first defeat in months on Fleetwood? What will the new line-up look/play like?
Over the next few hours we will see whether we can continue to push-on and make the play-offs as those 3 questions will be answered one way or the other!! As far as I'm concerned I reckon we can win this, I'm going for 3-1 to the Addicks.

As usual I'll bring you the team news as soon as I have it, but for now COYR's!!!!

Thanks @cantersaddick but others will provide them, like they did when I was in hospital. I'll now be following them from wherever I am!!

Best of luck bud, sounds exciting!

NornIrishAddick

Good luck, though I'm not sure that drinking wine by the pint is all that terribly good idea...

Thank you @Redmidland for all your match reports. Good luck with your travels.

Hope we haven't rushed back Holmes. Would've had him coming off the bench for the first few games.

ForeverAddickted

BOOM!!... And you always thought my match preview line-ups were nothing but guess work!!

(Okay I got the sub Goalkeeper wrong still)

cantersaddick

Always worry when there is only one defender on the bench.

And before anyone says it I think KR has made it clear he sees Dasilva as a winger not a LB.

So that's
Rudd
Solly Bauer Konsa Chicksen
JFC Crofts Aribo
Byrne Watt Holmes
Is that right?

cantersaddick

Important that we get at them from the first whistle.

Super_Eddie_Youds

Good looking line up, not much muscle upfront. Though plenty dynamic.

Redmidland

KR saying we are playing 4-1-2-3. Front 3 of Holmes, Watt and Byrne. Crofts sitting in front of back 4 and Aribo with JFC in middle

Attacking team and attacking bench

Very attacking. I think we can score more goals than them. 3-0 win I reckon.

End of a CL era, @Redmidland. All the best on your travels and huge thanks for all the past match threads - good, bad and at times downright ugly. I mean happenings on the pitch, of course.

Solidgone

Good luck RM.
