or lack of them.
No, I'm not talking about my sordid dreams. What has happened this season? I really though that we'd hold up better.
six clean sheets from 36 matches, not clean sheet since Millwall away, that's 17 matches.
Thoughts?

Morro's been a bit off form for a while. Hamer has been a bit flappy. Wiggy has been out injured for much of the season. Neither Cort, Taylor or Dervite are quite good enough, IMO, at this level. We are up against quality teams/players every week.0

I believe in perfect symmetry. Last clean sheet Millwall away, next home clean sheet Millwall home!0

Need someone like Andy Hughes to protect the back four. He was on the bench against Peterborough so he must be getting near full fitness.0

You can ask Ben Hamer this question next Thursday at the Eltham Addicks meeting

The reason we have done so well away is that we press and defend well. For a team that defends well, you would expect clean sheets but I think two things do for us. We can lose concentration at times- at this level you get punished more than in league one and secondly, we are better defending in an even game, than when we sit back and invite pressure- which we have done a little too much this season. We did it yesterday and won the game, but it has cost us in others. I seriously can't remember a game when we were so much better than another team across the pitch than the first half against Palace. The 2nd half tactic should have been to tonk them but it seemed to be to hold on to our lead and allowed them to play higher up the pitch with more forwards! We have to stop teams playing high up the pitch and that means always carrying a threat, which we are more than capable of doing. We mustn't forget, defending is a team responsibilty and attack is a form of defence - as opponents who fear an attack, are less offensive.0

Five in a row, when was the last time we managed that? Unless I'm mistaken we didn't make a run of five consecutively in either of our league winning seasons 99/00 or 11/12.0

Good question.
I was also wondering about those two seasons.
We did 9 or 10 before the 98 play off final but since then I don't know.
The best we did in 11/12 was this:17 March 201237 Scunthorpe United 1–1 Charlton Athletic showGlanford Park 20 March 201238 Charlton Athletic 3–0 Yeovil Town showThe Valley 24 March 201239 Huddersfield 1–0 Charlton Athletic showGalpharm Stadium 31 March 201240

I'm.assuming that across 2 seasons. The end of the 97/98 & the first game on the Premiership.shirty5 said:

If you’re only counting league games, then add 3 to the list, as our first three premiership games were shut outs.0
