    I hope the outcome is a positive one. Looking forward to the atmosphere from 1000 fans.

    There was a pier but I have googled it and it was demolished in the twenties. Charlton fans everywhere. Come on you reds.

    I am surprised Small isn’t starting.

    He was our best player at the back end of last season.

    Anderson and Campbell. Be interesting to see how much they have improved.

    That's the tough one. I guess it's because Edwards has committed for 4 years. He looks better defensively, Small has more threat going forward.

    It’s what many of us predicted so far.

    We look well drilled & organised, but boy are we unattractive on the eye.

    Coventry has got to be a better player than we have seen to date, surely ??

    I’d shuffle the pack at half time.

    H/T 0-0

    Even @ElfsborgAddick nether regions have seen more action than we witnessed there.

    We could be about to blow minus Xg off the scale.

    I will reserve judgement for another 45 mins, but not sure this formation with these players is going to be much good.

    I travelled 232 miles to watch this snooze fest. We keep on hitting it long. No close passing at all. Anderson looks lost on the left of midfield. The one positive is we look more solid defensively.

    I think he will keep it tight for 70 mins and then bring Aneke and Small on to nick a win.
