Well that little bit of hope of autos has now completely gone. Seems to be no cutting edge despite all of our endeavours. I just hope we don't send Millwall up by beating Leeds next week.
I would have taken playoffs at the start of the season with both hands..
with some luck we would have won both of those, norwich and exeter, we hit the woodork twice today... we had 9 shots on target last week against the champions...
and we are in the playoffs, promotion is in our hands, we win the games we go up....
Disappointing, but if asked at the beginning of the season before a ball was kicked I'd have taken Play-Offs. I 'spose it means I can save my money by not going to Oldham but going wherever in the Play-Off Semi's. We've definitely lacked a cutting edge in recent months but I'll be keeping my fingers crossed for a day out in the sun come May 29th and walking home happy. COYR.
Players not up for a battle. Play offs will be a struggle, when it really matters like it did today we have to smash exeter out of sight, many have said our keeper was putstanding. Thats just wrong
none of the top teams have beaten exeter on their own patch and we scored and hiot the woodwork twice....
this is the first chance of anything positive for years...
so go ahead be bloody miserable, see if I care....
I know we arent any great chakes, but the team has battled and battled hard to get into this position and be very unlucky in the last 2 games...
weve made the playoffs we get to have a tester against Leeds next week and we could drag them into it with a win, which would be perfect, so we send Millwall up probably a good think considering they battered us and have notched 8 goals against this season compared to leeds 0...
we can do this ... traditionally we arent too bad in the play offs...

Can't agree with that at all. We were never going to "smash Exeter out of sight". They are fighting a relegation battle, have a great home record and as mascot said, none of the top teams won away to Exeter either.
Exeter would have made it tough for any of the other sides in the play-offs. I really doubt many teams in this league would have smashed them today.
We weren't quite good enough, but it was a huge game for both clubs, was always likely to be a tight game.
That's a very positive view, Mascot. Though personally, I've grown a bit tired of the "we did all the right things, so let's keep doing them and hope the results come our way" attitude. Parky's also been subscribing to that all season. For me, that's not a winning attitude. That's a ribena advert attitude. Teams don't win leagues or promotion with it. They do so with a 'WIN. At all costs' mindset. And if you didn't win, you didn't do enough.

I'm going with that.

alright, truthfully, I dont think were going up, but you never know... and we have been unlucky weve needed a striker all yr and we havnt got it....
maybe Im just a bit sick of the negativity, does my head in...
we arent a very good team, we havnt got particularly good players.... and I beleive that those limited players have given everything in the last couple of games ... and I think that deserves support...

So im supporting them....
That begs the question, how many of our players would actually get in a Championship side...I think quite a number of them. Poor management has let us down this season in my opinion.
Also this is charlton, we have had tremndous success out of adversity previously ... and also this is football.. so no c*** has any idea what is gonna happen next.......

the team have played well in the last 2 ...
We could beat Swindon over 2 legs while Hudds are running into some nice form and will beat Millwall.
We would then beat the Terriers in the final!
Personally happy for us to lose to Leeds next week to prevent Millwall going up.
Would rather have them in the play-offs than see them promoted.
Drew 1-1 with Exeter and now settle for play offs ;-)
this is the first chance of anything positive for years...
so go ahead be bloody miserable, see if I care....

We couldn't beat Exeter away when it really matters, unless we can find something extra we won't be good enough in the play offs I fear
Already has - Kyel Reid. Or doesn't that count for some reason?

driving till the last minute...
