    I'm looking forward to this one, I have a few Wednesday mates and these would always be a cracking booze in the past.
    I have always liked Wednesday, a cracking ground and from the mid 80's there has been a healthy exchange of players to either side. Who can ever forget Peter Shirtliff:emoticon-0152-heart
    Anyway, our home record is strong, as is our defence, if ever there was a game that needs Kelman to put the ball in the net then it is this Saturday. Defensively this lot are shocking, particularly at home.
    Anything but a win will be very disappointing.

    Our record against bottom 6 teams is 7 points from a possible 9.
    If it does not become 10 from a possible 12 there should be questions asked.

    We're doing OK but our second tier status is a long way from being assured. We need to be winning this one.
    If Kelman and/or TC don't score or assist it will be a poor show for them.

    It’s a funny old game - always a banana skin when you start to expect to win or want questions asked if we don’t - with this one we need to push from the start and keep the pressure on - I’m sure they’re thinking the same - if we have another poor first 20 minutes it’ll be a tough one :emoticon-0148-yes:

    November’s fixtures look daunting - I think beating a decimated team of Wednesday kids at home is a must.

    I always liked Jim Melrose. Very underrated player.

    Didn't play for Wednesday.

    Granted that he was immense for us.

    He’s active on Charlton social media these days and is very fond of the club.

    Sorry I was being thick, I didn’t realise you were talking about ex Sheff Wed players. Doh.
    I once played in a Charity Football match that was refereed by Lawrie Madden. Commentator was Jimmy Saviles brother. It was against an Undertakers eleven.

    They came on the pitch carrying a coffin.
