I’m going to England Ireland game and had banked on this being chopped… when was the last time we actually played a game when there was an international break going on? I’m not sure if it’s even ever happened?
Good, Rotherham are half a wreck right now. Haven't scored a league goal yet and the fans are already getting the hump with Steve Evans' antics. Feels like a good time to play them before they get themselves sorted out hopefully
They haven’t won for 38 away games in the league (nearly 2 years!), haven’t scored this season and we haven’t conceded. This game only goes one way and it’s not good for us!
With that news I'm lumping all my savings on a Rotherham win.
I was offered a ticket for the test match for that day. Half price. I dithered a bit but took it as there was a chance the CAFC game could be off. Happy the game is on as I no longer have the ticket; my friend cocked up and didn't have the spare he thought he did.

I was sure it would be off so happily bought a ticket for the Oval. Hey ho, if we win I won't care. The last time I missed a Charlton game for an Oval Test we won it very late vs Hull in 2015. A repeat vs Rotherham would do nicely.

Didn’t we play Swindon ( & lost ) when we had 2 out International duty. could have been during LB reign.

it was during the Russell Slade era, we had 3 out and then came out with some nonsense that as it was a TV game it could not be called off
Kanu has been called up by Sierra Leone so that’s the 3 which means it can be called off if Jones decides to. I think if everyone comes out of today injury free and another win, the game goes ahead.

Yep, which is exactly what it seems like Jones hinted at in the article.
“Potentially we have enough (call-ups) to call it off but it’s whether we feel that needs to be done. It will be an internal decision after the weekend, once we know officially who has been called up. And if we don’t get enough call ups then there won’t be a choice anyway.
I think the fact Dixon isn't even in the first team plans yet and Kanu and Anderson aren't sure-fire starters, means the game goes ahead barring injury. Even if Asiimwe also gets called up, we have plenty of players to choose from.

When the young squad players are away on international duty, then it gives a chance to people like Taylor, Edun and Watson to come into the Matchday 18. There's Zach Mitchell too.
Now, with a League Cup exit, squad players need games or at least matchday involvement.

Sorry stand corrected still think it shouldn’t have been played
I reckon he should ask for a postponement, give himself another week on the training ground to sort out the issues and get the new signings up to speed with the team.

Going by Jones' post match comments, we'll get the game called off if Maynard-Brewer is called up by Australia because we've not backup Goalkeeper.
I’m not sure we won’t call it off anyway based on that interview.
He sounds proper wound up - wouldn’t be surprised if he takes the two week break and makes them all do laps of the training pitch until their legs give out on them first thing on Monday morning.

I’m not sure on the rules for international weekends.

Would still leave Taylor and Z.Mitchell not in the squad but potentially available
With an increase in number of games, will there be any other new matches available to view that aren’t currently?

Let’s play them while they’re out of form. That was a good plan!
