Charlton Athletic v. Carlisle United [r]

[hartley]

ID says he will field a strong squad for tomorrow's Carling Cup match.

Guessing?
Carson;
Kishishev - El Karkouri - Faye - Young
Rommedahl - Pouso - Holland - Ambrose
D Bent - M Bent

Subs: Myhre, Fortune, Ashton, Lisbie, JFH

By the way, does Hermann's ban affect this match? I thought his ban would be league matches only. Either way it could be good. Either he plays in this match to give us some much needed help. Or he sits out this cup match and helps us @ Aston Villa.

This should be a fun match for the guys. I am hoping we stretch our legs a little and playing that attractive attacking style to a big win. No more of that Curbs-close-to-the-vest stuff.

[hartley]

I would rather see:

Carson
Young - El K - HH - Ashton
Rommedahl - Faye - Pouso - Ambrose
D Bent, M Bent

Subs: Myhre, Fortune, Kishishev, Holland, JFH

Or Faye in the back for HH with Kishishev starting at dmid and add another midfielder to the bench.

Hreidarrson will being serving the last match of his ban today.

I don't know. With all the injuries I wouldn't be surprised to see Dowie blow off this match and put out a reserve team just to prevent anymore injuries. They are in a bad way in the league and can't afford to lose anymore players that could possibly keep them from being relegated.

[hartley]

Here's the actual lineup:

Myhre
Young, El Karkouri, Fortune, Ashton
Rommedahl, Faye, Kishishev, Ambrose
Bent, Bent
Subs - Andersen, Sankofa, John, Lisbie, Walker

Nice to see Faye back at dmid. Also nice to see Fortune start along with Ashton and M. Bent. Also good to see Carson and JFH getting the night off. And there's Walker on the bench. I hope he gets a chance to come on.

Is anyone else like me in that I feel no "banana-skin" feeling now that Curbs is no longer manager?

Go Addicks!

So what's the deal? BBC streams aren't working.. I'd really like to listen to the game!!! :(

[hartley]

I wouldn't check the streams until less than five minutes before kickoff.

[servotron]

don't they kick off in 3? WAAAAAAH!! I WANT TO HEAR THE ADDICKS WIN!! :D

[hartley]

Well, I am having trouble too. Bummer. Keep at it.

[hartley]

I have gone to listening to BBC Five Live, which is giving quick updates of all the Cup matches.

I am going to continue to try getting the Addicks stream.

And I have sent an email to the BBC. All should.

[hartley]

I'm afraid we are left with the umbrella coverage of BBC Five Live. That is very disappointing.

Go Addicks!

Tracking at BBC Sport web site.

Faye missed a header from 12 yards out. Good to see him getting forward and posing a threat.

Let's get a goal soon boys!

[hartley]

Halftime 0-0

That's disappointing. We should score.

I guess it is good to see they haven't scored.

C'mon you Addicks!

[hartley]

I was away for awhile.

But

57 minutes: GOAL! Darren Bent pokes the ball home from a narrow angle after a Rommedahl shot is parried by Williams. 1-0
