With the club mentioning it in a official tweet about the November schedule and tickets already being sold they won't choose to re-schedule it will they?
I noted the asterix on the tweet flagging up an international weekend,but I thought this would go ahead as planned?

Don’t know if we’ll get three players called up. That might depend on Daniel Kanu’s fitness and availability. However, if we do have the option to postpone I’d be very surprised if we don’t do so given our injury list. It would certainly make sense to wait until Lloyd Jones is available.

Does anyone know when the deadline is? As in when the club have to make the call by?
I was hoping this would be going ahead as was planning on going.

I seem to recall it’s the Monday before the international weekend. Could be wrong about that. We’ve no idea how long Kanu is out of course, so that doesn’t help, but my guess is we won’t have three players called up. Looking at Peterborough’s squad, again it’s hard to tell, but they don’t appear to have many players who are eligible for second or third tier national teams. |

Looking at Peterborough’s squad, again it’s hard to tell, but they don’t appear to have many players who are eligible for second or third tier national teams. On the Lloyd Jones thread it has been suggested that he might be available for this one? None of the other injuries make that much difference aside from Ramsay who is out for quite a while according to the grapevine. With Ahadme back, Godden scoring for fun and Leaburn looking sharp (albeit vs National League Southend) it might be a good idea to play. It appears that our midfield is what it is, and that only new signings and/or a new approach will change things there. On balance I'd suggest that we should play this one as we need to pace ourselves rather than risk playing two games a week later on in the season. Both Exeter and Peterborough are "anchored" next to us in mid-table. Win one and draw one will assist in climbing up the table, closing the gap on those above. Surely we should meet that challenge head on? |

Not about the game but CM was on Dan Biggar's podcast. Listening to him I'm confident of better times ahead
"n the latest episode of A Load of BS on Sport with Dan Ross & Dan Biggar, we delved into the cultural battles, leadership lessons, and resilience that drive him as he works to revive struggling clubs"

Posh is always a tough game, why would you continue to play it when we have so many out injured and can play it again when we have important bodies back in the team….

Agreed, but they have their own injury problems too, in FA Cup they had to put out a makeshift defence and Ferguson said at the moment he knows his side has to outscore opposition teams to get a result because they are shipping goals for fun. Their young keeper was dropped last season for a series of clangers and had the crowd on his back. (our former keeper, their first choice, Jed Steer is out injured with a knee injury - out for 5 weeks) |

I hadn’t seen this podcast before dickybaby mentioned it. It’s about behavioural science and how it relates to Sport rather than Sport and Charlton per se, but for me two things came across very clearly. First, and I was a bit surprised by the strength of this conclusion, based on feedback the interviewers had sourced from someone who knows Methven well and Methven’s own answers to questions, Methven appears to be a very intense and driven individual who is absolutely committed to delivering good outcomes and intolerant of anyone who isn’t ambitious and willing to put the effort in. Anyone who thinks he is a dilettante couldn’t be more wrong. This doesn’t guarantee success but it certainly helps. Second, and this wasn’t new as far as I’m concerned, Methven was almost evangelical in his attack on the evil (that’s a fair word to use given how passionate he was about this) of short-termism in the management of football clubs and the tendency of “bad” owners (as he would see them) to throw money at the problem to achieve short-term results, often (again as he would see it) under pressure from the media, fans and the manager. He believes this “insanity” (his language again) rarely, if ever, ends well. In his view it is important to get the foundations right and build for the long-term. The link to the podcast’s purpose here is that it is very hard psychologically to stick to a long-term plan when you face short-term pressures and potentially noisy outcomes This second point directly addresses the question you keep asking. Whether you or I or anyone else agrees with it, Methven, and hence the owners, are focused on building for the long-term. They are not going to spend money (unsustainably as they would see it) in the hope it will deliver a short-term fix. Whether this approach will work only time will tell. Nobody disagrees that promotion to the Championship is essential. The question is how patient the owners are willing to be in their pursuit of that objective. |

Nobody disagrees that promotion to the Championship is essential. The question is how patient the owners are willing to be in their pursuit of that objective. One thing to note is that Charlie Methven is the first person since Richard Murray to communicate with the fans in a transparent manner covering all aspects of the club. CAFC BVI communicated with CASTrust about Financial Fair Play at a time when loss limits were reducing which would play to our advantage. This suited their agenda as they wished to cut the playing budget AND sell the club from May 2013 onwards. Neither Staprix (Duchatelet), ESI nor Clear Ocean (Sandgaard) held a long term dialogue with the fanbase around the challenges and CAFC approach. And of course FFP rules changed in 2015 making it incredibly expensive to push on to compete at the top of the Championship. Methven talks to various issues around commercial revenue, the fanbase, the financials and improving many aspects of the club. Perhaps best that people spend 45 minutes listening first hand and then share their views. |

When I couldn’t find your comment I then deleted my own, thinking I’d imagined it!! I’m pleased you’ve clarified. For what it’s worth, I think I understand what Methven and the owners are trying to do, but if they don’t spend the available budget well a long-term perspective isn’t going to help. I’m more concerned about how money is being spent than how much. With the confidence being shown in Anderson, Kanu, T. Campbell, Leaburn and perhaps even Z Mitchell it’s clear they’re making a big bet on the academy. That might work but there’s obviously no guarantee. |

Taking Leaburn aside Mundell, how many of our academy kids do you think would be auto choices in top 6 sides like Brum, Wrexham, Wycombe etc…..If the answer is of a very low number then I tend to think this strategy may not work this season at least…… |

I see the website is selling tickets for the Posh game.
Despite them warming up today by hitting Cambs for six,are we safe to assume this fixture is going ahead as planned?
