    Doesn't JFC take a mean pen? Maybe him for penalty taker? Or Ricky?

    (Edited!)
  • KR says he has 2 injured players and there is interest in Konsa.

    I'll go for Magennis and Holmes injured and Konsa in the team for the watching scouts, so a team of

    Amos
    Solly Pearce Konsa DaSilva
    Kashi K-C
    A-G Clarke Fosu
    Novak

    result 0-1
  • Agree Konsa probably played so he can be put in the shop window.

    3-2 thriller.
  • Looking forward to the start this year unlike last so I am going for 3-1
  • 2-0 addicks at the start of a championship season. Yes folks, I'm suffering from Stockholm syndrome

    Do we assume watt not in the squad? Posting from home on twitter

    Hard to say seeing that it's still not 10am...

    If he still lives Greenwich / Woolwich way then he's not going to need to get to the Valley till about noon / 1am

    Plus he's only tweeted "All the best to all my old clubs today! Would tag them but might be here a while"... If he wasnt involved today I'd expect a tweet to say good luck to the team as he usually does
  • Robinson said that he would be in the squad today. One forward is definitely out though. I am not sure who it is. I hope it is not Magennis.

    I reckon Novak... He's barely appeared all pre-season.
  • 3 - 0 win for us. First game of the season you have to be positive. Mag, Holmes and Fosu.

    However if its Magennis out injured all bets are off.
  • Ni excuses, home win.
  • Expect KAG to feature somewhere then

    Novak out. Both Magennis and Watt indicating they're in the squad for today. Holmes 100% is playing. Expect Pearce to start if he has recovered.

    3-1 to us with some thrilling attacking football. Kashi MOTM.

    Look I'm content to give Kashi player of the year now.

    Of the three, missing Novak is the least bothersome to me. I still think Watt could have a breakthrough year if he sticks around. He looks fit and interested, and I feel like at some point it will click for him. Hope we give him a couple matches to find some form (coming on for the last 30 to start with).

    Anyone know if Reeves will be in the squad? No idea what his fitness is like.

    What I think the team will be:
    Amos
    Solly....Konsa....Pearce....DaSilva
    ..........JFC.....Kashi
    Holmes....Clarke....Fosu
    .............Magennis

    Subs: Phillips, Bauer, Crofts, Aribo, Reeves, KAG, Watt

    Personally I'd have Bauer ahead of Pearce and Dijksteel on the bench instead of Crofts because he can cover fullback as well but I don't think Robinson will see it that way. I may also be giving Reeves too much credit, he may not be fit enough to even be involved.
  • Is the ticket office open today? Club tweeted you could buy tickets online up until 1, does this mean I can't get tickets when I get there?

    Is the ticket office open today? Club tweeted you could buy tickets online up until 1, does this mean I can't get tickets when I get there?

    Ticket office will be open up until just before the game.

    If you struggle though, you can buy mine for £100.00.

    Reeves has been training with Back To Action. He is obviously not Match fit, but I would expect to see him on the bench.

  • I'll be surprised if Reeves isn't on the bench and expect he'll come on at some point.

    Good point well made. I'm excited for the season to kick off too.
  • I shall be following the match thread from the poolside in Alcudia.
    First match is always important and this is no exception.
    3.0 Charlton and the promotion push starts now.
  • Back to the Valley today with an open mind. Nothing forgotten or forgiven, yet. Hoping the protests wont be needed but will stick with them if they are. But I'll always support the team.
    Rovers will score today but we'll win 2-1.
    COYR!
  • Also shall be following match thread from the beach in rhodes

    2-0 again

    Is that 2-0 in each half, making 4-0 in total!
    I think that's what @happyvalley would call a comfortable home win.
