  • Tanto gets levered over and the lino gives a throw to Cambridge instead. Cue an insulting chant from our fans.
  • That is woeful defending. Mitchell is all over the shop. Wing backs not providing any defensive support either. The team are not playing as a unit. 
  • The internet is a strange place
    Yet here you are... ;)
  • We need 2 more players in minimum before the windows closes 
  • Poor half from a random team chucked together to play on a Tuesday night before a huge championship game early on Saturday.

    Pulse rates down everyone 
    We do not need to rest anyone. The ‘random ‘ team is a choice by NJ. 

    Who knows if the second half can see some improvement? If it doesn’t then the more established names are doing themselves no favours for a bigger role on Saturday. 

    But only one goal it so a half time rollicking from NJ may do the trick. 
    Why don’t we need to rest anyone? 

    90 minutes of incredibly hard work on Saturday I assure you will still be in most of those players legs 
    Because they are fit and able. Because we use substitutes. Because an international break is upcoming. Because a cup run is a good thing. 
    Doesn’t change the fact that tired legs get more injuries.

    not worth the risk in my opinion 
    Christ with that attitude I don’t know why we would bother beyond the FAs minimum requirements to field a team. 

    We have an adequate squad. Indeed we’ve sent some out on loan. 


  • Tres goals
    Tres bizarre 
  • Find Anderson tough to watch. Passes backwards all the time and constantly giving away a free kick
  • Fullah is the next shining star clearly.

    Based on tonight Hobden is nowhere near ready.
  • Don't tell those muppets at the EFL, but I have the Charlton TV stream playing on my iPhone, and in the second half I am getting the video! But I cannot get it on my laptop. Honestly what a farce.

    Not sure I'm going to enjoy this privilege, mind.

    It suddenly appeared on my laptop 3 mins before halftime 

    Blatantly a Millwall supporter at EFL towers flicked the broadcast switch to "on"
  • Anderson gets crowded out, and gets booked for a foul trying to get the ball back.

  • Kelman and Tanto really showing us why they should be starting ahead of Leaburn and TC
  • Players now losing their heads & getting bookings. 

    Utter shambles.
  • Too many basic mistakes....
  • Anderson one of the most frustrating footballers you'll see. Incredible off the ball, utterly wank with it 
  • At least we are winning comfortably on bookings.
  • Kelman and Tanto really showing us why they should be starting ahead of Leaburn and TC
    Players get better when they're not playing.
  • Jones' fingertips getting a right chewing in that close up.

    He's the only youth player that should be anywhere near the first-team squad
  • Really disappointing performances from Knibbs,Tanto and Anderson so far

  • Also nothing really on the bench to change the game.

    I know he said he doesn't care for the cup, but Jones has really thrown this I feel
  • I can’t believe there are people who were genuinely confused that Bell was starting over Macca you can see why.

    Hobden, Laq and Zach i don't think will play a lot for Charlton in their careers.


  • I have to say this is all feeling very Nov-2024. It's good to be back home.
  • Looks like we’re getting some changes ready, Enslin is one of them 
  • I can predict that with a likely defeat tonight and losing to QPR on Saturday to nil that the Charlton diaspora go into a full on meltdown at 5:01 on Saturday. We need to keep it all in perspective so let’s calm down/
  • Don’t fancy Hobden much
    Depends what ur type is I guess. Me too I prefer the female Cambridge physio phwoar 
  • “We’ve really learned a lot (from our defeat to L2 or lower club) tonight, much more than we’ve learnt from our last six cup defeats to shitty lower league teams zzzz blah blah blah….”
