Poor first half, Leeds just edged it but only just. Second half leeds were poor but a great save from Randolph at the end. Charlton deserved to edge it at the end and it could have been two nil if the freekick had gone in.
Not sure how Millwall lost today(sorry had to say that), trip back home now to bite my nails next week, no wonder nobody loves millwall, they are hopeless.
Dodgy internet today, and couldn't afford to go to another pub to watch, but every time they went back to Chris kamara at The Valley you could hear the crowd! Well done all of you for getting behind them!

Somebody has already worked it out ...... 24-1
I think the 24/1 is a little on the short side and you could probably back that treble at double those odds on Betfair.
The Millwall draw would be 5/2 at least because that result suits neither side (unless Leeds lose by more than one and no team can play with that possibility in mind).
Leeds to lose will be at least 6/1 and we will be available at a minimum price of Evens.

Fair enough, Addict, that makes sense.
I'm not really a betting man and was just quoting another poster on another thread.
Great at the end everyone standing up as they love Charlton B-)
I think we all went to the game today believing it'll be play off's and we might unfortunatley be doing Leeds a favour but they for soem reason never really went for it 2nd half even though they only needed a goal. Leeds have bottled it so many times surely they can't bottle it again next Sunday?
No matter what happens next Sunday, we'll sing our heart out up at Oldham and we'll go into the play off's believing that we can actually get out of this league. Players and fans together finally?
Forget about the Millwall result we haven't actually had a bad season, I think us as fans have forgotten that until now.
well that was a turn up i am with clem here first 15 mins we bossed it then it turned into a poor footballing match we were the better team in the 2nd half and deserved the win how randolph made that save i dont know
loads of leeds in the west by the away fans getting behind their team yet the stewards told 4 cafc spotty teenagers off for giving it to leeds when the missed that chance in the first half which peeed me off
gave them loads when we scored
one goal we only need one goal thanks boys it motivated us not you
oh yeah and it was great to see jonjo wish him well and say goodbye top lad
Brilliant atmosphere today, and the 'one goal' chant couldn't have been better timed from the Leeds fans. Forster and Burton didn't click up front but both worked hard. As for the Man of the match award I'd give it to Randolph for the save alone, but Semedo probably pipped Dailly for me. Everyone stepped up to the plate today against a tough Leeds side. All I need now is Wednesday beating Palace tomorrow for the icing on the cake. Come on the Owls! 'We only want one goal.......we only want one goal.......one goal............................

How inconsiderate to score so late. All those beating the traffic will have missed the goal :-)
A strange game in that for about an hour or so, despite a lot of "huff and puff" on our part, all Higgs had to do was make a good save from Deon in the first half and an easy take of Lloyd Sam's scuffed left foot shot. I said as much to my daughter and the guy next to her and at that point we started bombarding the Leeds goal so I take some credit for our victory :-)
To be serious Parky deserves credit for 3 brave substitutions which sent the oppo a loud message that we were "going for it." Darren Randolph made two crucial saves. The first one was brave and I've no idea how he got to the second I was convinced it was in! Dailly was magnificent at the back and made some crucial blocks. Semedo battled well in midfield. Frazer was obviously up for it against his old club. In truth though everybody contributed and nobody really hid. Even Racon was evident for more of the game than usual.
Well done and my daughter, whom is not the one who usually comes, even enjoyed it!
I was right behind parkys dugout today and it was quite fascinating. Kinsella wanted to murder the 4th official for nit-picking
parky was adamant about going for the win and deserves a lot of kudos for today
jose my MOM but Dailly and ssodje both excellent at the back too. Great battling performance and good to see our defence register another shutout (brilliant save Randy!)
best atmosphere for ages - hope we can carry the form into the playoffs as the team spirit if fantastic right now. Milwall appear to be stumbling at the moment so I don't fear anyone right now
thoroughly enjoyed myself today - the definitely something sweeter about a late winner
Nobody has yet mentioned Deon's brilliant block to turn that early Leeds shot from point blank range around the post. He just got his toe in in time. If that had gone in then I think we would have struggled to come back. So although he may have struggled up front he made a critical defensive intervention when it mattered. All of the players put in an excellent shift and I though the back five were all outstanding.
Bumped into Curbs in the car park afterwards and he was beaming ear to ear. Should I start the takeover rumours again?

best home game for a long long while....fantastic atmosphere from all sides of the ground.
fairly even first half and they possibly just shaded it, great block from Deon to prevent them scoring. Second half was a different story and we really looked up for it and full deserved the 3 points. Couldn't fault a single player today, the front 2 tried hard but just didn't seem to click today, great subs made by Parky.
Great save from Randy, unbelievable miss from S Sodje.....MOM a toss up between Jose and Dailly, think Jose just shaded it for me as he seemed to get better and better as the game went on.
held out for as long as I possibly could in the second half before taking a piss.....consequently I was in the bog when we scored !!!!
what a day ...
could see curbs from my west stand seat so i got all warm and gooey...
great team effort and results as good as we could have hoped for....
randy randy randy , who knows if we had had you in goal all season we'd probably be up by now 4 goals conceded in 8.5 games , damn you you should have supported charlton !
dailly what energy , semedo immense, parky ridiculous bringing them two on up front but you beauty it worked!
saw dailly in the lounge afterwards and told him he'll get the winner at wembley against millwall (didn't specify for which team tho aaaaaah) he said 'that would be lovely'
spoke(sang) to semedo and asked does he farking hate millwall and he said he really hates them and on that basis i love him now !
also saw matt svennson in some reddy pinky jeans and ilic
i now see us as 0.5% automatics 99.5% playoffs ;-)
i see us 40% lose in the play off semi's, 35% lose in the final and 25% win the play offs
the team done us proud let's hope we all turn up at oldham with some proper away support for once , i'm going so should you!

Give it a rest Oohaah. Please? We're all in a great mood after today and you still have to bang on about attendances. Just let us all enjoy the moment and dream of what could be...
Great atmosphere today best i've seen since my first game at the valley against coventry a couple of years ago. Randolph's save was immense Dailly was head and shoulders above anyone. The crowd were amazing, my 7 year old said wow its good being in the noisy part its normally the others that are noisy. Dal thanks it was a great day and even i was screaming CHARLTON at the leeds in the west ;-)
Leeds fans were so focused on the Millwall result it was great to remind them in the 88th minute that there was another team that could stuff things up for them.
Richardson, Dailly, Sam and Semedo stood out in a great passionate team performance. And that had to be Akpodge's goal - it glanced off the defender on the way in.
leave it out bournemouth i'm just saying we need that final push and after the teams performance today the least we can do is turn up and make it like a home game for us , sorry if that offends anyone but with a huge ridiculous amount of luck results wise next week, who knows what may happen and as parky and oggy pointed out the great support today helped the team , so let's be having you !
i thought sam sodje was going to lose it a bit in the first half, when he was jumping for the ball he caught becchio a couple of times and boy did that fella dramatise it all and miraculously recover once sodje had been booked

I wouldn't fear Leeds should we face them in the play-offs after today.
Two important stops from Randolph. Good one early on for the one on one and fantastic stop late on.
Don't know why he won't start with Reid, major threat again when he came on, great free-kick (and save).
I think the 24/1 is a little on the short side and you could probably back that treble at double those odds on Betfair.

Yes he was good but should have been as he's a Premier League regular.
Fair enough, Addict, that makes sense.

Excellent point.
In the words of Jim Royal, "own goal, my arse.."

I was on my knees in disbelief when he missed
