I think Wigan will have a decent season and finish in the top ten. But they seem to have few injuries at the moment so now is a good time to play them. Head says a draw. Heart says a win.
I'd be delighted with a win and very satisfied with a draw.
Excited to see how the new look Addicks shape up after a good pre-season.
Happy that the ownership, leadership and management of the club appears to be on an improving trajectory and hope that NJ and his team can have a great season.
In the predicted line up we have 12 of the squad signed since January so it’s a new team and hard to tell how we’ll do, one thing for sure is we’ve never had this many options before with a strong bench and some decent players missing out from the squad being so big.
A draw wouldn’t be a bad result but in going with a 2-1 win . TC and Gas.
DOES SKY + work on SKY GO ?? Or am I going to have to pay for Charlton TV to watch the Wigan game?
Dont think it does, I couldnt see any of the games listed last night on there
Looks like you can watch it via the Sky Sports app though, if you have a tablet or even on your mobile - I've not tried it yet myself, so I could be wrong.
Yet if it does, you could always look into connecting your device to the TV / Computer via a HDMI output so you dont have to always watch on a smaller screen.

Good advice. Laptop connected to TV via hdmi is my plan for the afternoon.
The REAL football has finally arrived for us all! What happens this afternoon will as usual shape my mood for the rest of the weekend (and many of you too).
I had hoped to be going today (flew in yesterday), but no Sheffield local boys going, so I will watch at home (hopefully not behind my hands) and hope.
I still get game nerves after all these years. The stress resulting from hope and misplaced expectation can still get the better of me and I can literally have the shakes. An early goal followed by another before half time, settle them down, and the enjoyment can preceed joy at the final whistle, but how often is that the script?
I would absolutely love a carefree dance along the pier, for those going, but fear we aren't quite ready for the northern soul.
Goals are my concern as are the midfield, defence and keeper. If my house was dependant, the pessimist in me is nibbling away at my neck, thus I am going for no clean sheet and not enough fire power.
We now have a good squad and I just pray that Jones knows what is his best starting Xl. Not sure what to make of Wigan, as with most clubs a big player turnover during the 'window', brought in youngsters from the big local clubs, however I am not sure they are that strong We will find out this evening how good/strong they are
It will be interesting to see NJs preferred lineup. Edwards or Small, Berry or Karoy, which of TC/Godden/Kanu
I suspect that given the importance of the wing backs to NJ, we will see rotation of Edwards, Small, Ramsey and Watson to maintain high energy down both wings. Edwards and Ramsey to start, Watson and Small on the bench and come on at 70 minutes.

2-1 Wigan.
draw= good point away from home and win all your home games is promotion form ©️ Seth
lose = they’re just as wank as last season, any chance we can get a goalkeeper a level or two above utter shit
whatever result=*Wigan* is a tough place to go to not many teams will win there and they’ll be up there
I can’t see us losing 1-1 or 1-2 rewards for the travelling contingent
*insert any team we play for the first half of the season*

Charlton win
Silver - Wigan
Bronze - 🇬🇧 Men’s omnium
Edwards and Ramsey to start, Watson and Small on the bench and come on at 70 minutes.
