We are top of the league near the end if February. 7 points clear OF SECOND! Many more clear of third. We are unbeaten at home this season and have a great squad, manager and board who all want the same thing. PROMOTION!
Stop complaining and look at the table!

We are 12 points clear and a game in hand of 3rd, if we win on Saturday we shall be 15 points clear.
CP tried something different tonight and by all accounts it did not work, he has time to learn before Saturday.
If I had choice I'd rather take 3 points off Stevenage than Rochdale
Solly and Jackson might be fit by Saturday.
Saturday will be a big game. BWP will score and Cafc get a good win with a convincing performance.
1) Midweek games mean I actually leave work on time rather than staying till 9pm.
2) Great free kick again
3) We avoided defeat against the worst team I have seen at The Valley this season
4) We now know Wiggins is a crap RB so won't make that mistake again
5) We are well clear of third so have some breathing space if we have a sticky patch.
6) Games like that show the board we will need investment in the summer if we are promoted.
Charlton P32 Pts69
Sheff Utd P32 Pts68
Huddersfield P32 Pts61
Stevenage P32 Pts60
MK Dons P32 Pts58
Sheff Wed P32 Pts57
Not much of a gap to second, but 8 points clear of 3rd! Yes, wining the title would be good, but promotion is the important thing, and we're still in a pretty damn awesome position.
CP will know he got it wrong tonight with some of his choices but two fantastic saves from their keeper kept them in it at times. we do need to improve against some of the sides happy to nick a point at the Valley but seriously some of the doom and gloom among us is desperate. It is unlikely to ever get mutch better than this with regards to points on the board and a lead so big.
The bloke at the end of my row tonight twice tried kicking the empty seat off its hinges in raw rage at substitutions and I cant believe he wasnt thrown out, cursing every touch and you would have thought we had never won at home as opposed to remaining unbeaten. He didnt even see the irony of his attitude whe he shouted "this will go 6ft over, useless French T!!t" when YK stepped up.
I am remaining positive as the thread suggests and will only panic when the gap to 3rd is 3 points which is at least another three games away.
Ask the fans of any of the other 23 clubs in our division where they'd like to be right now.
People have short memories.
This team has lost only 2 games.
They have shown guts and determination to get this far. Do people really believe that we are that far superior to the other teams in this division?
I just don't get the negativity. It must be really disappointig for the players and manager to read the negative comments on some of the other threads considering the improvement from last season.
I for one am on cloud nine and I haven't even seen a game ( I live in Australia)

The difference being that these players do seem to give a toss ,unlike some in the last few seasons, and that is why we drew rather than lost.
Charlton Athletic. Laughing at Millwall since 1905.
As it happens beating our main rivals has put us in a much stronger position as we have won the preverbial six pointers . Three draws equates to one win.
Fifteen games to go . Four wins and eleven draws would see us over the line. A fifth or sixth win would mean we could lose a few .
It is the mark of a sucessful side that we still pick up points when things go badly.
