Cue Sheff predicting a win...NOT!

[Ancient Moaner]

W 1 - 4 C 4873 (1000 addicks)

Tragic own-goal I presume? As Deano persists with Macken & Grigg combo up front, A partnership that would struggle to get goals in the W'ton Works league yet alone against Charlton!! :( :(

[big baz 1]

7-0

[derbysaddler]

Walsall 4 - 1 Charlton

The addicks will be put to the sword by a positive display of precision football from the Saddlers. Walsall will take the lead from a Butler close range header before Charlton equalise through Wright Philips. Then Charlton will have a man sent off for a stupid challenge on a Saddler. Walsall, smelling blood, will then score through a deflected Nicholl's shot. Then in the last 5 minutes as Charlton push forward for a leveller, sub Bowerman will score twice as they leave themselves exposed.

YEAH!

Can anyone one find this man some professional help? :mrgreen:

It would be typically Walsall to win this one before getting thumped at Chesterfield the following week.

[brackley]

I have to say, as daft as it sounds...........I kinda of agree with Derby and feel that another Preston display is on the cards.

I might not be as a bullish about the scoreline, but think we will be a goal to the good against the East Londoners where we will wind the clocks back and put in a performance of the kind that saw us put one over on them as we did at Selhurst Park back in the 80's (....was a cup game) :D

[WFC_Rob]

We'll lose this one 2-0.
We're just not good enough at home to beat anyone with anything about them.

[Darth Vader]

3-1 Charlton. Bowerman for us.

[canadiansaddler]

Charlton are the class of the division at the moment 7 points clear with only 1 defeat all year , we'll be very lucky to get anything out of this one

Walsall 0 v 2 Charlton

[SaigonSaddler]

Fighting draw or spirited win.

This is the Walsall way!

[gerryhatrick]

Fighting draw or spirited win.

This is the Walsall way!

Oh ye, of excessive faith.

spot on :( :shock:

[latviancheese]

Charlton win 3-0.

Super Saddlers 2 - 1 Addicks

[Aldridge_saddler]

Realistically, Charlton will storm this game, however everybod expects them to!

Complacencey (sp??) on their part may set in, do we have the ability to capitalize on that ? No, unless Nicholls goes up top with Macken.

We need to go for it so my team would be;

Walker
Beevers Butler Smith Sadler

Paterson Peterlin Chambers Halliday

Macken Nicholls

[WFC_Rob]

I'd be tempted to shove Gnakpa up front tomorrow. Let's face it, they'll beat us if we play to their strengths so we might as well have a physical presence up front.

IF we can get crosses into the box, their centre halves won't enjoy defending against Gnakpa.

[MILO5]

Head ....2. -0 Charlton

Heart .... 2 - 1 Saddlers.

We'll call it a draw

[latviancheese]

I really wish i didnt follow WFC players on twitter, sometimes their attitude is irritating. I guess we are all human.

I change my prediction to a 5-1 defeat.

[Welsh_Saddler]

Starting XI today:

Walker

Sadler
Lancashire
Beevers

Taundry
Smith
Chambers
Halliday

Macken
Paterson
Nicholls

Substitutes: Grof, Butler, Gnakpa, Peterlin, Bowerman

Our League goal difference -7
Charlton's goal difference +28

I worry....... :(

Interesting formation. :wink:

Seriously though, anything other than a defeat will be a result.

[Welsh_Saddler]

I'd put the word "heavy" in there......

Anything other than a heavy defeat would be a result (with due deference to Pinnacle's sensitivities.......) :mrgreen:

...and with thirty minutes played, it's still 0-0. We had our first shot after 41 seconds!!! :shock:

[Welsh_Saddler]

Elsewhere.....

Man Ure 2-0 up against the Dingles
Bournemouth leading 0-1 at Huddersfield :shock:
Jabo Ibehre scores for the Dongs at Tranmere

Oh, and according to the BBC, after 27 minutes Jimmy Walker pulls off a fantastic save!!!
