Won't be going due to a stinking cold, but will be listening to our totally unbiased commentators. Don't blame JJ if we're crap, we've been a crap Cup team for decades, even under Curbs.
TEAM NEWS | Nine changes for FA Cup tie as Henderson starts 6th November 2021 14:00pm please log in to view this image Stephen Henderson will make his first start of the season in this afternoon’s Emirates FA Cup tie against Havant & Waterlooville at The Valley (3pm) as Johnnie Jackson makes nine changes. Akin Famewo and Jayden Stockley are the only survivors from the midweek draw against high-flying Rotherham United in SE7, while academy graduates Charles Clayden and Mason Burstow feature on the bench. Goalkeeper Henderson starts in between the sticks, enjoying his first Charlton start since February 2016, with Sean Clare, Deji Elerewe, Famewo and Souaré likely to form the backline ahead of the Irishman. Harry Arter and Albie Morgan are expected to man the midfield, while Corey Blackett-Taylor and Charlie Kirk will operate wide, looking to provide service to Josh Davison and skipper Stockley. Clayden and Burstow are joined on the bench by Craig MacGillivray, Jason Pearce, George Dobson, Ben Watson, Elliot Lee, Diallang Jaiyesimi and Conor Washington. Charlton: Henderson; Clare, Elerewe, Famewo, Souaré; Blackett-Taylor, Arter, Morgan, Kirk; Stockley (c), Davison Subs: MacGillivray, Pearce, Dobson, Watson, Lee, Jaiyesimi, Clayden, Washington, Burstow
I expect us not to be crap and will be very disappointed if we are. Don't think JJ will allow any complacency and that team is more than good enough to give H&W a tonking. Can see it being 4 or 5 nil and every win breeds confidence, especially for players who haven't had much game time.
Don't like the look of our midfield. CBT and Kirk will have to up their game. It'll be interestin to see how Davison and Stockley combine, and how Clare does at RB or right wing back. I've seen too many dismal Cup performances under different managers, still hoping for the best though.
I agree. Morgan and Arter will have plenty of work to do I suspect, but we should still have the quality and I expect Watson to come on if they get over-run.
Anyone having trouble with the audio stream ? Paid for mine but it’s not letting me listen. Did get a message that due to high demand there’d be a delay of about 5 minutes but that was 20 minute ago. Is yours ok my black and white friend ?
Sounds like a typical Charlton FA Cup (non)-performance. Could be a spate of substitutions early second half if we don't improve.
I think these players need a rocket up ‘em. here’s how to do it….. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/av/uk-england-essex-59191446
Well done the squad lads & Stockley Sounds like a very slow start, but the flood gates opened in the end. On to Round 2 Get well soon Penguin
