Mansfield are looking to end a five game losing streak when they visit Charlton on Saturday. Former Addick Deji Oshilaga is full of praise for Charlton, but forecasts a very physical game - so expect northern cloggers and no protection from the referee: https://www.chad.co.uk/sport/football/mansfield-town-star-deji-oshilaja-relishing-return-to-former-club-charlton-as-stags-aim-to-halt-run-of-defeats-4903247
Tonight Charlton play yet another Blackwell Tunnel derby when they face Leyton Orient in the Vertu trophy. Confidence is reportedly high in the Orient camp.
I would expect Nathan Jones to use a mix of fringe players and under 21s which seems sensible enough, but if we lose light blue touch paper and retire.
Paradoxically, it might be our best chance of getting to Wembley this year, but there are limits to the extent that we can invest in it.
I see that 'Chopper' Harris is leaving Millwall after his remarks about 'thickos' didn't go down too well with some sections of the support.
Although it is being streamed live, I am off to see Leamington v. Rochdale in the cold of Harbury Lane.
Well the the blue touch paper is well and truly smouldering. Let's hope the resulting bang blows N.Jones out of the door.
