What's happened to Innis?
Really big game for Morgan this. Hope he really runs that midfield for us.4 -
I hope Inniss is a precaution so he doesnt miss Ipswich
Feels strange seeing Gilbey back before Oshilaja though as Deji was supposed to be ahead of him2 -
Here's the OS article about today's line up:

No Inniss and no Famewo, expect to concede today i reckon.1
-
We have all 4 CBs injured or not ready to start.
Does that beat even our own horrendous injury crisis of the past few seasons?

Strong looking team, even with the injuries.1
-
Centre backs are overrated7
-
I just hope it's not 4-3-3. As I think we've looked our weakest this season when in that formation.
I think 4-4-2 diamond would suit this line up very well.5 -
Shame no Innis in what may be a "physical" battle. I hope we do okay without any recognised CBs. Having 4 CBs out is very Charlton like but I still fancy us.

Is bloody typical... Pearce and Oshilaja return to training and Inniss / Famewo bugger off to the physios room0
-
As @LouisMend says, even with Gunter and Pratley as centre backs, we still look bloody strong.
We are without Inniss, Famewo, Oshilaja, Forster-Caskey, Williams, and Doughty in the squad and we still look this strong.
Impressive.5 -
No bespoke CB for Charlton.
It was so important we got Matthews signed up with Gunter having to fill in as an emergency CB. Captain Pratley as well who is doing the same in the autumn of his career.
You can never work out what starting 11, Lee Bowyer is going to start with. The good part about that is hopefully neither can the opposition manager.
As long as we are pro active and play on the front foot then fine. We still have slow starts as a different 11 have to get to know each other each week.0 - Sponsored links:

Anyone got odds on 7-5 either way ?0

Thrush leaves and Inniss injured straight away afterwards.4

0-2 to CAFC.0

Seems an attacking side with Morgan and Maddison.
5 - 2 to the Pride of Kent, Charlton Athletic4 -

Barker injured too or not fancied for the bench?
He had a very good last game. Must mean Pearce is fit if needed on at half time.0 -
Hmmm, no fit centre back and a side clearly lacking height vs Gillingham’s cloggers and hoofers on a windy day. Definitely need to play ‘our game’ for this one.4

Conspiracy theories on the COVID-19 thread please Henry,
Football is about to break out on here after a critical two weeks.5
