    This has been like watching Autumn 2024 Charlton.

    We have no wingers …. Not going to create anything without wideman ??

    Karoy totally failed to see the danger there.

    I’ve missed Macca smashing it up the pitch

    Slightly overdone it on the youth here, but that’s easy to say in hindsight.

    Slick move by them but all a bit too easy

    Our midfield is non existent

    Looked like Z. Mitchell was tracking whoever got the assist but stepped forward to cover the young RWB, leaving him with acres of space to pick the pass for Brophy when it got to him.

    Horrible clearance that from the Cambridge keeper

    This game has got me all nostalgic

    Playing lower league opposition, and struggling, getting all teary eyed and longing for the days of Appleton and Garner

    When we “attack” there’s a gaping hole in the middle of the pitch, Fullah just had 0 options

    Gillesphey launches it forward towards Fullah but he can't get it under control and it's out for a goal kick.

    We need to wake up.  Too many sloppy.passes and our football.has been dreadful. Gillesphey at his "hoofing" worst so far (not that he's the only one off his game)

    I think it's time we sub on Alex Gilbey

    Have an early night with a glass of warm milk and a digestive, you'll feel better in the morning mate...

    Not great so far. Absolutely no one showing that theyre worthy of a starting place in the 1st 11 as yet

    Of all the teams Sky could have mentioned on the front page of their app when you open it up for League Cup streams:



    They can't help themselves, can they?

    Preston v Wrexham is vying with Wigan v Stockport, Cardiff v Cheltenham and Burton v Lincoln as the dullest tie of the night.

    Mitchell heads it out for a throw level with the RH edge of our box.

    I wouldn't want to be within earshot of Nathan at half time.
    I might hear him 75 miles away ...

    Another long ball towards Kelman but again it's out for a goal kick.

    Another Gillesphey long ball comes to nothing.

    It’s pretty dire stuff isn’t it. Early days but £3.5 Million Kelman think we had our pants pulled down on that one.  He has shown absolutely nothing to warrant the title striker.  Although, great to see the Charlton hoof ball is back…..

    Kelman decent effort blocked for a corner.
