DID YOU JUST SEE THAT
That was much fancied Leyton Orient beaten at home by 10 man Charlton. The same Charlton that beat Bournemouth at the weekend with only 10 men.
This "new" Charlton had 2 players from our last game last season - that's right it's a new team that hasn't yet gelled and hasn't yet completed a game with 11 players on the pitch
This "new" Charlton was marshalled superbly by a colossus called Doherty at the back
It had two central midfielders that most clubs in this division would envy
A left winger far too good for this division - and he had a poor game
A chap called Lee Martin who hasn't done much yet in his career and who seems keen at attain cult status before September is out
I could go on to mention arguably our most important player - jose the beast semedo but I'll leave that to another day. Your central midfielders will get munched by him in due course.
I could go on but I don't want to scare you - all I'll say is BE AFRAID, BE VERY AFRAID. THIS COULD BE THE REAL DEAL!

cant wait until oldham, hopefully we can keep 11 men on the pitch and demolish them

Im feeling the same!!!
in the words of Wagstaff "BUZZING MATE!"
No way!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is Charlton we're talking about!!!!!!!!
Also talking in the third person is a bit of a cringe.
.
Martin, Abbot, Docherty, Mcormack, and Francis, still impressive though, particularly the younger players stepping up
Also feel we are a far better team without lazy Loyd on the wing.
Don't want to keep going on about Sam, but he can't be called lazy. Nothing like Wagstaff for energy and running but he worked much harder than Thomas, Rommedahl, Bouazza etc ever did.
They both would have worked hard to cover in front of their fullback ..... but Sam would have 'shown' more in the first half.
But then Sam would have been subbed by Waggy on 60/65 mins, and Waggy would have been the impact sub.
