    Someone on CL said 900 max. I suppose the club will add on the season tickets and announce an exciting 5,950 attendance.

    @CAFCOfficial has Tweeted a film of the players coming out and there are 500-600 in the ground.

    Desperate line up again tonight with Konsa and Relegation Roger again starting at the back, and those two energetic young dynamos Crofts and Jackson in central midfield.

    Harriott is again picked to provide the magic we know he isn't capable of.

    Whew - thank God for our Top 6 budget.

    Club tweeting fans tonight to 'Come along and see our new hexagonal nets'. Thats almost worthy of a LOL if it weren't for the sad fact they are reduced to offering this as an incentive to go along

    Lovely new nets - but no No.1 keeper to keep the ball out of them.

    Surely the deluded bitch has been stung by tonight's "crowd".

    The official figure of 2000 is getting the horse laugh on CL.

    Squirrel face will have her massive beak more out of joint when she sees the attendance for Shrewsbury midweek.

    The Northampton game will be distorted by them bringing 3000.

    Slsde quoted in the Newshopper today that he wants to do a deal on Foley, who he says can play in a number of positions in midfield and at the back. He is also hoping to bring in a keeper by the end of the week. Interestingly he once again says in the article (interview given after last night's game) that he wants "5 players".

    Slade's interviews are hardly upbeat, the honeymoon period is over

    He lacks any personality what so ever but comes across as a nice geezer can't imagine him reading the riot act to the players to be honest

    He says "the club" is working very hard to bring in 5 or 6 players. If we do get them in we will be left with the dregs no-one else wants, or a couple of loanees. We may get a respectable start, but I can only see our season tailing off once injuries and suspensions kick in, a familiar pattern at Charlton- you don't have to be Nostradamus. Last time we were in L1 we were often outplayed, our owners are in for a rude awakening if they expect a cakewalk.

    Disappointed with Slade's comments after the game yesterday - he was talking about having "control" of the game as if we were facing Arsenal away at the Emirates.

    What is this rubbish about the "small details costing you at this level" FFS - we were playing Bury in front of 4,000 at Gigg Lane.

    This team that Slade has bolted together already has the stench of death about it - it's not too early to declare that, as some Apologists are saying, because the likes of Johnson and Novak are not going to improve and neither is our new Saga- sponsored geriatric midfield either.

    Nor am I fussed with the prospect of Lewis Thompson coming in - use the money instead to keep Tex because playing Roger Johnson will cost us goals this season.

    Slade is cobbling together a horrible, paceless and talentless team that will be set up as hard to beat. No doubt we will finish mid table this season but nothing better. Funnily enough, Cardiff fans said very similar about Slade and the job he did at Cardiff.

    Is this the beginning of the end of Slade's honeymoon period? He had quite a good pre-season talk the talk but I am hearing doubts
    about whether he can walk the walk <badger>

    Slade knew what he was getting in to.

    It's the sheer lack of ambition that rankles - there is 0% chance of getting promoted out of League Ond with Steady Slade and this group of journeymen & doesn't RD just know it.

    Slade will keep us mid table whilst the final player assets are flogged off

    I'm not so confident about the mid-table prediction. For the first half of the season maybe, but then there will be a slump as the paucity of our squad kicks in.

    Currently being pummelled by a recent non League team with us virtually as "full strength" tonight LOL

    Hard to see Slade being here for long

    The thing is - it won't affect his rep. So easy to put it all on the owners.

    Sounds appalling there tonight - Frankensteins Monster of a team.

    Interesting comment from the Dad of our mascot on Saturday - said our dressing room was flat as a pancake before the game.
