Charlton v Rochdale - Match Thread

AFKABartram

Evening all, and welcome to tonight's match thread. The glamour of League One could not be better represented by the fact I am currently squashed up against a stinking South Eastern train toilet door on the journey to the Home of Disillusioned Dreams.

Will we successfully overcome the trial of Rochdale, or will halfway through the second half we'll be shouting 'I'm a Charlton fan, get me out of here'??

Great if people could post team news and updates as they emerge. Anything other than a win tonight will seem a disappointment

Come on you Addicks

As you go past New Cross, flush whatever you have done and come out of the toilet.

Who said we don't have enough forwards, 3 "strikers" on the bench to destroy them second half.

Unchanged team then, let's hope they are as dominant as the were on Saturday with the goals to show for it tonight. COYRs.

Have Valley Pass on in the background waiting for the commentary to start while I'm working.

Not sure the boys know the mics are already on.

@KillersBeard just said something like 'shit I left my script at work'.

They're now chatting with what I can assume is the media boys about their weekend or something...

There’s about 10 Chinese guys in suits sitting there at the moment acting like they own the place. When they move out the way I’ll let you know if there’s anybody new sitting behind them

Game time! COME ON YOU REDSSSSSS! #cafc
