We've done a deal with the devil. In return for Chuks being fit every game for 20 minutes cameos, we've agreed that half the Kent cricket team is injured instead.

Easter Monday against Wycombe and our amazing resurgence since Crawley at home is still alive and kicking under the finger chewing, manic jumping, Welsh religious fireball that is Nathan Jones.
Wycombe have won 12 at home and 12 away and if this was a draw it wouldn't surprise me. Both teams need a win for a top 2 spot so it could be like a basketball match at the business end of the match.
I Personally feel the unavailability of Leaburn and Kanu as subs is a big loss at this stage as Golden Godden is having to play too many minutes and with Mbick and Gassan undercooked and doubts if Gas is good enough and may be too soon for Mbick, we are being stretched.
Nathan and the players have to keep believing that it's possible for top two until...
At 5pm if no victory for CAFC a different strategy may be needed for Wrexham and Burton to make sure we have our main players fit and ready for another possible 3 games.
I have seen him do less and be out for months and months
and stupidly the other day he should have played safe and gone to the corner flag but instead tried to take on players
It looked a quad injury to me but he was limping badly for the rest of injury time
Spot on. There was 60 seconds left against the Cobblers and instead of using his big frame to shield the ball out wide and take the ball to the corner flag, which was close to where I was watching, he ignored my screams 🗣️ to "Shield the ball, shield the ball" and turns to run towards the goal and lost the ball and looked injured. Surprise, surprise with 30 seconds to go we have to defend our box.
If that's the last time we see Chuks in a Charlton shirt that will be sad but sorry folks, Dr Will Abbott may be excellent at his job but he would need to he a Messiah to keep Chuks Aneke fit for a dozen games.
Wycombe at The Valley was the game where I felt we might actually be a side after all, let's hope Wycombe away is the game where we can honestly believe we're going to get 2nd.
Lots of people sitting in their designated seats today, although not everybody is.
We have an old man, who can barely walk, sat right at the back. I doubt he will be able to stand for 90 minutes, so he is likely to not see anything if he doesn't move down the front.
Or will the stewards prohibit standing in the away end?
Macaulay Gillesphey will return to the Charlton line-up for this afternoon’s game against Wycombe Wanderers.
The centre-half missed Friday’s win over Northampton Town with muscle stiffness and replaces Tom McIntyre, while Danny Hylton returns to the substitutes bench in place of Gassan Ahadme.
Kayne Ramsay, Lloyd Jones and Gillesphey will start in a back three in front of goalkeeper Will Mannion.
Thierry Small and Josh Edwards will operate as wing-backs. Conor Coventry, Luke Berry, who scored on Good Friday, and captain Greg Docherty will make up a midfield three.
Matty Godden, who scored his 18th goal of the season in the Addicks' win over Northampton, once again partners Tyreece Campbell up front.
Hylton is joined on the substitutes bench by Ashley Maynard-Brewer, Tennai Watson, Karoy Anderson, Alex Gilbert, Chuks Aneke and Micah Mbick.

That's why it's called injury time DOH.

To watch, play or be on the bench ?
All will be revealed very soon.
Wont be surprised to see May, Blackett-Taylor and Dobson involved in the squad as well
