Good afternoon one and all...
So early KO's seem to have gone to plan with Orient Winning, it really does look rather good at the moment...🤞

Today we make the long awaited and anticipated trip to North Wales where Wrexham await our arrival, today is a late kick off to accommodate the people at Sky, and we will be doing our damnedest to upset the promotion apple cart for them, and I fully expect us to do just that.
Currently sitting second thanks to our result last week, they are still catchable by both us and Wycombe, we are the form team at the moment, whist Wrexham seem to be trying to almost stumble over the line, and they will certainly know they have been in a game come 7.15pm...

We'll be without the suspended Chuks following an unsuccessful appeal, though NJ confirmed that Daniel Kanu is set to return to the matchday squad, asked for the latest on Luke Berry and Lloyd Jones, the gaffer said: "It was a bruising game [against Wycombe] so we’ve had to dust them down this week. Everything’s going to be touch and go before the weekend, so we’ll just see. We’re going up there in good spirits and if anyone doesn’t make it, it’s just another opportunity for someone else."...doesn't sound too optimistic, but could be keeping his cards close to his chest

Wrexham will be without injured trio George Evans, Andy Cannon, and Mo Faal, Phil Parkinson's side are unbeaten in their last eight outings, winning five of those.

We've locked horns on 16 previous occasions, winning three, Wrexham seven and the remaining six encounters resulting in draws, we secured a point in dramatic fashion back at The Valley in October as Matty Godden fired in from the spot to draw the sides level in stoppage time.

So, lets get this job done in good fashion and take the smirk off their faces in their own back yard, we'll be sporting the grey third kit in North Wales.

Here we go

Team news...

Karoy Anderson and Tennai Watson come into the Charlton starting XI for this afternoon’s game against second-placed Wrexham.

Watson and Josh Edwards are expected to operate as wing backs. Anderson, who scored in Monday’s win over Wycombe Wanderers, joins Conor Coventry and skipper Greg Docherty in midfield.

Matty Godden, who has scored in each of his last two games, and Tyreece Campbell, once again start up front. 

Charlton: Mannion; Ramsay, Jones, Gillesphey; Watson, Anderson, Coventry, Docherty (c), Edwards; Godden, Campbell

Subs: Bouzanis, Mitchell, McIntyre, Gilbert, Hylton, Mbick, Kanu

    I'd love it if the Wrexham team came onto the pitch with "Entrance of the Gladiators" blasting out over the PA ...

    I'll take that. Berry will be a miss but Anderson's energy in midfield could be handy

    The pre match report on Sky Sports news just then was brutally bad. Not sure they mentioned the away team opposition at all. I think they are already up after the report.

    Sitting in the Railway Inn, a fifteen minute walk to the ground, surrounded by a few hundred Wrexham supporters, well oiled. Nice traditional Welsh boozer, but no real ale, so on the Guinness..
    I'm sooo looking forward to this game, the unpredictability of football at it's best. Wrexham win, promoted, we win then it's still up for grabs .

    Hopefully Wrexham will be too busy celebrating then to remember they've still got to get a result

    Aaron Henry is there, that’s more of a surprise than Mbick and Dixon being involved recently. Good news is Lloyd Jones is there.

    Fingers crossed this is smoke and mirrors from Agent Mendez

    Think it guarantees Berry is injured. Imagine Henry is just the spare man and won't make the squad

    Dunno... Someone has to come in for Anderson on the bench unless we have Mitchell or McIntyre there

    To be fair, Sam Parkin gave us a good mention saying we're the form side, second only to Birmingham in terms of points won over the last four months, are on top of their game after trouncing Wycombe 4-0 away from home and Wrexham would have preferred to have played any other side today apart from us or Birmingham.

    Shame that everyone else connected with the Sky broadcast will be blowing industrial amounts of smoke up Wrexham's freckle and fawning over the Canuck and the Yank.

    Probably a contractual obligation.

    Any straying from company policy, any dissent will result in an immediate red card.

    A couple of decent ale pubs in town, The Royal Oak (Joules) and the Magic Dragon Tap.

    Full of Wrexham fans of course, but a decent atmosphere
