Should Charlie start against Charlton?

[Fordy]

Start him, get samba to come and mistime a tackle on a Charlton player and accidentally go through Charlie instead. Put him out of action for 6 weeks then we get to keep him. Bobs ya uncle

When asked point blank whether Charlie would start, CR replied along these lines: "If fit and available he will be in the squad, let's just say that".

I'm thinking subs bench, which I agree with.

Start with a team that is 100% committed without any distractions, and bring on Charlie as a possible game changer if you have to.

Like ya thinking Fordy, trouble is Samba will probably miss Charlie, injure himself, then get sent off.

He is still a QPR player so yes. It's like me saying i am looking for a new company to work for but in the meantime I should just doss around, do nothing and cream in my extortionate wages.... yeh righto

[West London is Rss]

Ive changed my mind i think he should start...

Care to elaborate ?

I'm am still 100% sure he will leave before the end of the month. However, if by some miracle he doesn't, why deprive ourselves of out best player for 2-3 games.

Looks like the man himself is raring to play, so a no-brainer IMO:

The clock is ticking season is nearly here charlton away ��⚪️��⚪️

Good man Charlie.

Because he seems up for it and fully focused on QPR.

[maverick69]

Have one of our most prolific strikers ever on the bench if he's fit? Yeah. Sounds like a good idea. Lol!

To be honest I don't think his commitment was ever in question, his focus may have been a bit wayward before with all the transfer talk but, even if that was still as rife as it was, I reckon he would still put a great shift in for us to the very end.

Agreed, not sure he will start though. Polter has played all the pre-season friendlies and started last weekend... I think he will be given a chance.

Yeah I agree with that, he has had more of a pre season than Charlie has and I would start him up top too. Charlie on the bench and bring him on if needed.

Are Charlie and Poulter the the same type of players though?
