bookies make the Stags favourite 11/8 v CAFC 15/8 … draw 23/10 .. they might have made a rare error here0

Happy with a 4-0 loss to be honest. We don't seem to turn up against such huge sides.
Also shouldn't this be Personsfield Town...
Disgusting binary based sexism there.4 -
Worst timing ever
Nick a 1-0 and be out of there
Fair play to the 500 going up as I think we will get done :0 -

It's a cup tie. Hopeless performance or amazing performance, we'll lose.0

I must admit I am nervous about this one. Not a bad side Mansfield. Last year when we played Truro I must admit I was absolutely shitting myself. Truro was a real potential romantic story and Mansfield will be no different. I reckon we will squeek through at The Valley though.0

This game is on the ESPN+ app in the States (it's the "ESPN+" part of the ESPN app, if anyone needs me to explain it let me know).
4:45am kick off local time. Think I'm gonna sleep in and watch it later in the day.

It is an app, errm...not sure ho that might apply to my home PC.
Does anybody know if it is likely that there will be a stream on reddit?

Pains me to say it but I couldn't care less if Bowyer plays all U23s and if we lose so be it. Our injury rate per game is far too high. Mansfield to win 2-0.0

It will have drained off by then. Forecast looks ok until then.Rock Spectacle said:Having seen the weather in Sheffield tonight, just hope they've covered the pitch...

Not going to win the cup. We have other prioraties....play squad players and no more injuries would be a good result. If we are out at least it could lead to another Saturday without a match and most rest time for players.2

I reckon Bow might plump for Steer because if we end up playing Swansea U21s on Tuesday then I think Bow would go for Dillon in that game.ForeverAddickted said:Mansfield Town v Charlton Athletic
Sunday 11th November 2018 … 12:45pm Kick-Off
FA Cup 1st Round Proper
Introduction
Form appears to have returned to South East London, with maximum points and two clean sheets from as many games it appears as though Charlton can look forward and forget about the poor run of form in October (which can happen to any team) – Football League action though can now take a break until the 24th as Cup duties now take over, first up is the historic FA Cup and a trip to League Two; Mansfield Town awaits, time to see if the Giant Killers are out in force this weekend.
The Opposition
Name: Mansfield Town | Manager: David Flitcroft
Ground: Field Mill
Of course there may well be a giant killing in Nottinghamshire this Sunday… For League Cup earlier in the season; Lee Bowyer would nail his intentions to the mast by fielding a weakened team against MK Dons and may well do the same this weekend – On a positive spin though, the Stag have never beaten the Addicks, these two sides meet for just the fourth time (two of those encounters coming in the old Second Division) with Mansfield only managing a 2-2 draw at best.
In recent years though Mansfield have been one of the major forces in League Two and if promotion continues to evade the Addicks then these meetings may well become more often – Currently occupying the last of the Play-Off places; the Stags have lost just the one league game this season (at home to Exeter City) so regardless of the team we put out, victory wont be assured regardless!!
On the playing front; Mansfield won’t have too many faces known to Charlton fans, yet Craig Davies, Krystian Peace and Conrad Logan all have experience at League One level which again reiterates the fact that this wont be a walk in the part like the Truro performance of last year
Charlton Team News
As match previewer I’ve been looking forward to saying this for a while yet it finally appears as though Billy Clarke is fit to participate in First Team affairs; the Republic of Ireland playmaker having been out of action for a year has slowly returned with minutes for the U23s and should at least be on the bench for the FA Cup clash.
Yet as one player returns two more depart for the Physios room – Luck has well and truly deserted Charlton players on the injury front of late with Igor Vetokele and Josh Cullen both now out for a number of months with a dislocated shoulder each… One final positive piece of news is the fact that German Centre-Back: Patrick Bauer is close to a return and is expected to make an appearance on Tuesday night against Swansea City in the Football League Trophy.Phillips

Prediction
Trying to predict how we’ll do in a Cup competition is harder than the League, quickly simply because you’re never sure of how much a priority it is in the eyes of the Management – If the League Cup encounter against MK Dons is anything to go by then you’d expect a quick exit; on the other hand Stevenage proved that there is an opportunity for others to get some game time, especially with the busy festive season fast approaching!!0 -

The travelling Addicks will be located in the North Stand which had traditionally been the home end for many years. It is a relatively new stand which means there is an uninterrupted view of the action with plenty of room and good facilities.guinnessaddick said:Anyone know if we are on an open terrace?

Reckon we could have got close to 1k on a Saturday. What a piss takeclive said:Around 480 Addicks have secured their place for the trip to Nottinghamshire and Mansfield have confirmed that they will be selling tickets on the afternoon of the game at the price of £17 per adult, £12 for concessions (over 65 and U18s) and £7 for under 11’s.
Mansfield are only accepting cash on the day of the match.
