    only other side in the top 10 to take 3 points was Blackburn today. Can only be a positive result. Still need a proper finisher up front though... would bring back Vetokele as a minimum.
  • We will take three points any time no matter how ugly we get them.
  • Great 3 points but did not sound easy against the bottom club. I pray for the takeover to happen next week and a chance to get a few new players signed up in the window.
    Let's get our Charlton back soon.
  • Considering everything that has gone on this week, that was a well deserved three points.
  • In the context of what's happening, a fantastic 3 points.

    Hopefully getting back in the play off places will give the buyer impetus to try and complete in time for window signings.

    Once again, our goal was a thing of beauty in an otherwise attritional game, although I thought we passed it very nicely in the second half.

    Big win that, even against the bottom club, any points gained during the dying days of Duchatelet's tenure are a real bonus. Very happy with that today COYA
  • Psychologically this is a massive win.

    3 points away from home, depleted squad, best player leaving, only two of the top ten winning.

    Doesn’t matter than Bury will finish bottom. We needed to win and we did.

    Delighted with the win, and lets hope we can build on it again next week.

    2 wins on the spin (thanks, Curbs), 2 clean sheets.

    Good job we only had to play Oldham and Bury. Any other teams, we wouldn't Oldham and would've been Bury-ed.

  • Great result.

    Battling performance. Desire, spirit and body on the line stuff. A performance Charlton fans can be proud of.

    Kashi wonderful. If we keep him then promotion is possible.

    Blimey, the beer must be strong oop north.

  • As soon as Roland goes I will be back in the lower west.
    Please Roland sell by next week, you are genuinely loathed

    Three away points, two league wins on the bounce, Marshall getting on the score sheet at last, Aribo doing well.

    A win is a win and we're back in the play -offs.

    With all the shit going on at the club right now I'll settle for that for now.

    Indian restaurant tonight before the boy goes back to University tomorrow. Happy days.
  • well done robo and team

    A win is a win is a win. No reason to expect any game should be an easy one, especially in the state we’re in.

    We’re grinding our way out of a bad run, carrying multiple injuries, with transfer and takeover speculation over hanging the club so we should all be very happy with the win in the circumstances.

    Well done the team and KR, I hope you get the support from above that you deserve very soon.

    Three points further away from the ultimate humiliation. Woohoo!

    Will take a win at any time, but the situation with substitutes highlights (the lack of) ambition from Duchatalet's and his seeming wish to offload anyone he can get cash for, makes this seem a hollow victory. Without some new blood, promotion is not going to happen under this regime. We'll do well to field 11 players come April at this rate.

    Same as last week. Poor game, but another much needed 3 points. Pleased for Robinson as well.
  • I'll settle for 2 x 1 goal victories on the trot, especially bearing in mind what's going on behind the scenes.

    Only managed to view the 2nd half but thought Reeves & Marshall did well ( always knew they'd both come good....:-) )

    The lads battled well regardless of the quality of the opposition & reaped the reward.

    Bet Walsall are quaking in their boots...( only kidding)

    Onwards & Upwards despite the Rat.

    Given all the nonsense going on at the club, a very welcome three points. With the Shrewsbury game postponed, we'll hopefully pick up further points this month against Walsall and Blackpool.

    Look forward from hearing from some of the 350 heroes who ventured up to Gigg Lane.

    Watched on tv from my home in Denmark as I've watched most of the games this season. Reeves looked more up for than in ages which maybe because we weren't looking for Holmes to come and collect the ball, in fact as was the whole team in the first 20 minutes we ran at them taking the game to them instead inviting them on to us. Bury decided that they better start to lean on a few players and with some big lumps in their side it started to get a little agricultural. Marshall decided at last to start hitting the by line but needs to start firing in a cross instead of floating it in for the keeper. Both centre backs looked ok with Lennon the shakier of the two, the full backs looked ok and weren't overly bothered with any threats by their wingers. Kashi just kept it fairly simple. All in all, a good result and will give them the confidence in themselves.

    Considering everything going on at the moment back to back wins is great even if the performances wernt.
    Fosu is due back soon and carruthers may well be joining us.
    All we need now is a striker who knows how to score and who knows we just might do it.

    Watched on iFollow from Saudi.

    Some real positives there. With all that's going on and a depleted squad, the players really looked up for it today.

    On a ploughed field of a pitch they passed it around nicely and created space and chances, especially first half. Could/should have been two up at halftime. More importantly, they worked hard as a unit when Bury briefly rallied in the second half and continued to look a threat on the counter.

    Marshall and Reeves (arguably) had their best game in a Charlton shirt and Mavididi's pace caused problems. Gutted Magennis didn't take his chance when it seemed easier to score, but the finish simply smacked of someone who currently lacks confidence.

    Hey @T_C_E . I’m in Denmark too. Where are you based and how long have you lived there?
