Scunthorpe v Charlton - Match Thread

AFKABartram · November 2017

Afternoon, welcome from a sunny but cold n crisp South East London.

No trip oop North for me today, the Sooty Show and Winter Wonderland won the day so I'll be consoling myself in Bavarian Gold and Bratwurst and following the match thread.

Team news below, come on you reds

Holmes in the 10 role? From memory he's struggled in that position, better suited out wide imo.

Spoke to a steward in the car park, he reckons they’ve been getting home crowds this season of 2500 - 3500k I wonder what today’s offering will bring?

Be interested to see if it's three at the back or Dasilva on the left wing. Either way, it's a bad time to be Ahearne-Grant.

I would have thought we'd keep the same formation, but with Sarr at LB and Dasilva further forward, but who knows?

Kim Novak not playing for them nor Simon Spongefoot.

Crofts on the bench.

Only one goal to be scored against us then - from a late sub. You know who.
Let's hope we're 2-0 up by then.

Seems that way from what the twitter account has posted

ross1 · November 2017

Oh dear, no ex-Charlton in the starting 11

Covered_End_Lad · November 2017

Apparently it's same formation as normal 4-2-3-1 sarr left back, Holmes number 10 and dasilva left wing

moutuakilla · November 2017

Not a particularly inspiring bench. Presume Fosu is injured?

Going by twitter it sounds like we're playing three at the back so...

Amos
Konsa | Bauer | Sarr
Solly | Kashi | Forster-Caskey | Dasilva
Holmes | Magennis | Marshall

Beat me to it, Forever.

It certainly looks that way.
But I don't suppose leopards change their spots ....... expect 4-2-3-1, with Sarr at LB and Dasilva as our flying left winger!!

Good to know. I would have been genuinely shocked if Robinson had changed his formation

Laddick01 · November 2017

Da Silva played LM/LW pretty much up until the year before he joined us , he’s very capable there.

Out for 5 weeks.

Sillybilly · November 2017

For some reason I’m a lot more optimistic about this now than I was a few days ago. Just hope we don’t have to bring on a sub.

CAFCsayer · November 2017

Hope it is 3 at the back... That team looks strong

cafcsinger · November 2017

Can't say i know too much about Scunny's team, but Morris, Van Veen and Holmes all on the bench. I thought they were there big players?

seth plum · November 2017

Apart from Jacko and Doodoo, are all the subs academy graduates?

I did read this week that Morris has been out injured - probably not properly match fit?

No, Morris is a Minor player for them
