Nobody reads that!

Really well worked corner until whatever JRC actually tried to do 

aliwibble

Jrc takes, short to Fullah, backheeled to JRC, dink cross hits the roof of the net.

Costello with his black boots, on glance looks like a fan who has been asked if he can play in midfield

fenaddick

Laq has a decent throw on him 

cafc4life

Think we’ll need some of the big hitters from the bench to help salvage this. 

Mbick, Ewens-Findlay etc…

Where's Godden Ole when we need him...

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

Don’t think that’s the problem.  Aimlessly lumping the ball forward and hoping for the best wouldn’t work against many.  

ozaddick

What skysports + channel is showing the game?

Croydon

Gillesphey has got to stop with these fucking long balls

Being saved for the later rounds.

Brown59

What’s happened to Reece Burke is he still injured 

aliwibble

Another ball forward for Fullah to chase that goes out for a goal kick. Come on Macca, he's fast, but he's not that fast.

Bangkokaddick

Why has 90% of the play been on our right?

ForeverAddickted

Red Sky at night... House is on fire!!

Karim_myBagheri

They're pressuring our back 3 a lot. Which leads to one of our defenders booting long, leading to a goal kick for them. 

Chunes

Gillesphey thinks he's playing rugby union.

cafc4life

Commentators pronunciation of Gillesphey getting on my swede here

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….. 

such a poor take!
bloke has had bugger all service in every game he’s played - living off scraps and half-knockdowns.

aliwibble

All this head tennis is giving me a massive sense of deja vu.

Clem_Snide

We genuinely don’t look interested. No tempo or urgency at all.

Croydon

Lol and people want Mitchell in the first team 

killerandflash

Bad moment for Zach. Far too weak.

fenaddick

Mitchell completely bullied there 

up_the_valley

Oh well

cafc4life

Absolutely pathetic from Mitchell

ken from bexley

that is another one to them......

000__Jaaaaay__000

Just no intention to play football right now, more interested in smashing the crap out the ball 

Clem_Snide

Pathetic from Mitchell

Briston_Addick

Oh dear.
