i think we will play 4-5-1 slocombe j clarke lockyer broadbent brown bodin lines sercombe o clarke sinclair harrison Sore head this morning? I think Smith will be No. 1. Can't really see Harrison up front on his own. Surely Nicholls must start being our marquee signing.

I don't know what we're worried about? I thought we held our own against them last year. 😂 We'll still finish above them even if they do dick us twice again. It was strange that they did that to us last year and then lost so many games to teams that we had already beaten.

It was strange that they did that to us last year and then lost so many games to teams that we had already beaten. Tbf, our home game I'm sure they only had 5 shots all game? Nichols just didn't want to save anything during that period of time. And away from home we played our reserves.

I have given up on this one - far too difficult to work out an effective shape. I suspect that we will sacrifice the additional wide man (Byron Moore) to enable us to accommodate a midfield 5 of
Lines, Clarke (O), The Beard, Sercombe and Bodin
Gaffers up front on his own(ish)
PS:Â Signing Sweeney would make a massive difference IMHO, as I think DC would consider playing a back 3 rather than a 4 Â
I agree signing Sweeny would be great but I'm yet to be convinced about the three at the back formation. I don't know the Pts to games ratio for 442 433 and 352 under DC but I'm 99% certain we've picked up less points 3-5-2 than in the other formations.

Can't really see Harrison up front on his own. Surely Nicholls must start being our marquee signing. I don't think you should start a player just because he's anew signing and I'm pretty sure DC wouldn't either. He'll pick the formation and team that he sees best for this particular match, which is the way it should be. Does anybody on here know more about Charlton and their probable starting 11 than DC ? probably not, but I agree harrison on his own up front is probably not a good idea. I prefer the thought of Gafney as alone center forward with the quality of Bodin Sercombe and Clarke etc feeding off him. Harrison will always score goals but he offers very little else.

Because its a difficult away game i think dc will try to crowd the midfield and play 1 striker,not sure that suits nicholls so i think he will go with ellis.

Harrison is also good in our box when it comes to defending set pieces, if he can be arsed!
Anybody know why Moore was missing on Saturday? As I still feel DC will start 4-5-1/4-3-3 as that's what he's been trying all pre-season. For 4-4-2 we really need an out and out LW.

Would like to think Smith would be number 1 Northampton fans were gutted he left and thought he be going to championship. Where as Blackpool didn't offer slocombe an extension to stay
