Pre-Match View From Charlton — The View From

"2 home games coming up before the likely defeat at Millwall6 points from Sheff Utd and Derby would go along way to securing our championship status for me" "2 massive home games which we can’t afford to slip up in" "Sheffield Utd have got quite a lot of carthorse footballers as well.

So so silver

Actually first cheers Roy!

Cheers Roy. Where is everyone?
Always liked Charlton fans, but some of these are weird.

Not as weird as Roy...

Dykes nailed on to score.

 

[joe casey]

Just seen they signed Dykes - who I think is pretty awful, but always seems to score/cause us trouble. Hoping we score enough that his customary goal doesn't matter

Dykes nailed on to score.

With another Women

 

[Bobby b]

The fact they haven't got a left back means we must play seriki and brookes. Cheers Roy

 

[Cappy]

That's a typical 'we watch our own team, no others, and look at the league table occasionally. That's how we form opinions' view from.

Cheers Roy!

According to transfermarkt, Dykes has only ever scored once against us in 7 games in all comps - so why do I also instinctively feel like he's got about five against us in the last couple of years alone?!

 

[fifty shades of blade]

“Sheffield Utd is gonna knock few goals but we gotta try knock a few in too.” No flies on this one

 

[SirNibletsO'Korne]

Cheers Roy.
"Dykes rusty and ineffective "?
Not in the videos I've been watching they aren't...

 

[Edgar Allan Poo]

Not in one of the medal positions.

The carthorses are coming to town tomorrow!

A real Mandela effect of a player probably because that one goal was a real sickener if my memory hasn't failed me again

I remember Dykes playing against us for QPR on a televised game a few years back, he didn’t do much but win a few flick ons, but was still given the man of the match by co-commentator Neil Warnock who eulogised him like his performance had been the second coming of Puskas…

It was in the 2-2 at the start of last season where we looked like the greatest team in the world for about 30 minutes and then ended up drawing with Q P flippin' R.

That was great. They almost always back up the MOTM award with an on-screen graphic that's like "Shots=1st, Dribbles=1st, Chances Created=2nd" etc and they just didn't bother for Dykes because he'd done absolutely nothing.

I can’t remember if Warnock was still managing at that point, I assume he must have been and was secretly trying to tap him up to sign him, as otherwise his none stop praise throughout the game was utterly bizarre…

They're much more interested in the transfer window than the game. Sounds like they're bringing quite a few in

 

[Greasy Chap Butty]

Our carthorses smash in 4. Seems fine to me.

Competing for the same targets as us though

Hopefully Shackleton is taking his CV down with him

 

[ISZA ⚔️]

[Silent Blade]

This was the starting line up when we lost to Charlton last September. I have just texted my Charlton mate that I expect 6 in that line up will not be starting tomorrow.

He was still getting 50% of his appearance money?

Is there a big striker Warnock DIDN'T want to sign?

Never enquired about my availability !!
