  • What a ball from Fullah
  • Wins breed confidence, continues to build fitness and gives us an opportunity to get a decent tie in the next round and make a bit of money hopefully. For me this is a case of all eggs in one basket with no regard given for anything else.
  • Yet to see anything of Mbick to suggest he’s ready to play for us 
  • Good touch and dangerous cross from Rylah.

    You can see why the club seem to rate him, but he has other moments when he looks so far off senior level.

    But we lost in the First Round last season of this competition, and still got promoted?
  • Nice crossfield ball from Mwamba to (I'mnotsure), but Mbick and Enslin can't get to the cross.
  • great cross from rylah

    he is playing for us
  • Don’t fancy Mitchell much
    Have you been out for a drink and the pics yet mate...plenty of time...😉
    He’d spill his drink and drop the popcorn 
  • Yet to see anything of Mbick to suggest he’s ready to play for us 
    Would have him out on loan probably in the National League but sounds like there's zero chance of that happening.

    Can you really tell, given the standard of his teammates?

    If he's having to be thrown into the First Team, with those he's playing with tonight, we're in trouble.
  • Fullah to Enslin, cross into the box is cleared wide, we try to pass it about a bit but the cross from the left is collected by the keeper
  • Out of interest, who from the first 11 would you have played today ahead of a 12:30 kick off Saturday? 
  • I have to say this is all feeling very Nov-2024. It's good to be back home.
    "We've got our Charlton back...."

    Honestly don’t understand why so many people care about a cup we have zero chance of winning, are we so desperate to be pumped 6-0 by Arsenal in the third round? We’re playing the u21’s to see how they shape up against a League One side.

    I can’t believe our fans in the ground are mockingly chanting “we’ve got the ball… we’ve lost the ball” etc to a bunch of academy boys trying their best.
    The thing is, whether you like it or not, some people do care - and ultimately they give up their time and money to follow their side, because they want to watch their side win, and I think they have a right to be slightly miffed about the team choice today.


    Lets not pretend that people don't care about us not winning and that's it, a lot of those not "caring" about tonight, are just looking at the bigger picture.

    Ultimately the whole, caring / not caring is a load of bollocks
  • Out of interest, who from the first 11 would you have played today ahead of a 12:30 kick off Saturday? 
    I would have had Doc at least on the bench I think, it's been pretty obvious there's no leadership out there
  • Jones has basically conceded here. Real insult to those who have paid good money to travel to the game. 

    Given the relatively strong side we put out against Stevenage you would have expected similar this evening.
    It's not really that different to the Stevenage line-up. Slightly worse keeper, Alex Mitchell not there - which has probably made the difference - Hobden in place of Rylah is much of a muchness and Kelman for Leaburn shouldn't be a downgrade. We've just also been a bit more rubbish
  • Don’t really understand why we’ve put Enslin right and Rylah left, both seem less comfortable on their “wrong” sides to me.

  • 11 changes means we don’t care about progressing
    No adults on the bench means we don’t care about progressing 

  • Another Cambridge sub, we're trying to do some quick coaching while that happens.

    I make that 10 home grown on the pitch now.
    Eleven actually I think.
  • None of the experienced players have shone this evening...

    Not really sure what your point is?

    Forgive me for wanting my team to be competitive, and looking to win every game. 

    Maybe some on here are to used to the losers mentality we’ve been accustomed too in recent years that this is acceptable. 

    As others have said, if we go and roll over to QPR on Saturday, tonight looks even more ridiculous.

    You carry on not understanding Elliot, the rest of us will carry on wanting our team to win every game. 
    I also want the team to win? Just won’t wet the bed over the second round of the Carabao Cup.
  • We have a big issue if Ramsay or Jones get injured. Fuck me that was woeful.
    But there's always Bur .................... oh see what you mean.

    Your whinging about winning breeding confidence blah blah blah, but we lost in the First Round at this stage of the competition last season, and it did us no harm.

    What bit about that did you struggle with?
