Wigan v Charlton - Match Thread

ross1 · December 2017

78' Amos just got absolutely clattered by Toney. Incredibly, Kettle lets play continue and Wigan nearly score as a result. #cafc

Karim_myBagheri · December 2017

bloody hell. well done Dijksteel and kashi.

SDAddick · December 2017

AMOS ffs. Think it was Aribo (or Dijksteel) who did brilliantly well to block a shot on an open goal.

ross1 · December 2017

79' Another Wigan ball into the back post is met by Toney, but his header is straight at Amos. #cafc

78' CHANCE! High ball by @Chey_Dks dropped by Amos under pressure from @ivantoney24, but @CAFCofficial get bodies in the way before @WillGrigg could release a shot. (0-0)

Jesus, when was the last time we didn't have to make an enforced substitution due to injury? Must be 8 or 9 games ago now.
When you have players who are not fit when playing, they will pick up more injuries

Yes, but you also can't get players fully fit without them playing matches so its a bit chicken and egg.

Regardless, this run of injuries in unprecedented in my 25 + years following this lot, at least as far as I can remember.

Changed my mind, shut shop, where's the pump..?

Starting to conceded a few too many chances here. Late heartbreak coming I fear.

ross1 · December 2017

81' Great goalkeeping from Amos to rush out and smother the ball at Griggs' feet as he was about to pull the trigger. #cafc

ross1 · December 2017

82' Wigan adding some pressure, another dangerous ball in is dealt with by the Addicks. #cafc

Lennons been out for a year & played 45 mins on Tuesday ffs. Making him play a full 90 mins tonight is just plain stupid imo.

Think he's been out more than a year?

ricky_otto · December 2017

C’mon lads, don’t throw all the hard work at the back down the drain.

ross1 · December 2017

@WillGrigg denied again by Ben Amos. (0-0)

I'd bring Dodoo on for Karlan. Think Karlan has done some good running today and helped keep their defense honest but he looks to be tiring.

Indianaaddick · December 2017

So it's only a matter of time till they score then.

ross1 · December 2017

84' Konsa heads a Wigan cross behind for a corner... #cafc

What choice did he have?

ross1 · December 2017

85' Wigan will make a sub first. Noel Hunt replaces Michael Jacobs. #cafc

Leuth · December 2017

Jackson understandably fading. We don't really have much to replace him with though

ross1 · December 2017

85' Powell wins his header from the corner, but Amos gets down well to make the save. #cafc

LennyLowrent · December 2017

Magennis on the left is like me playing Acordeon

Indianaaddick · December 2017

At least we have not conceded any early goals.Maybe that 7am get together did some good.

SDAddick · December 2017

Speaking of tiring the skipper looks knackered. Obviously his heading and game experience are useful in the final few minutes but I worry he's given the ball away cheaply too many times.
