In the East, no booing at ht in fact loudly clapped off. Even though we were better second half the first half wasnt bad and if we had a decent finisher, or Yann playing, we'd have scored two or three.
Good support from all the stands not just the Covered End. Thought that was a bit much after the final whistle.
Forest fans where also surprised by our support. one bloke i know who is a forest fan said '' Charlton's support was first class. and that probably helped spur your team on. the response from your fans at 1 - 0 down was the most supportive I have seen. Fair play to you deserved at least the point ''
alot of forest fans on there forum seem to think we deserved all three and also credited the atmosphere. We need to keep that going.. One game isn't good enough. gotta back the boys like that all the time.
Chips down...heads up. Another Get Out of Jail performance. The home support was constant and passionate. I feared some of the boo boys might make a noise tonight, but thankfully they did not. The Covered End made clear its thoughts: CP: 100% support. This man must remain as manager. Tough times, undoubtedly. But we can, and will, overcome. More, please.
I thought all our supporters were up for it tonight and I am still awake as I have a very sore throat (East stand!).
Thought it was Cardiff all over again and when we scored I thought it was just our first, and it should have been with just a little rub of the green.
The crowd really can be the 12th man and even just clapping along makes a differance. Looking across to the West stand you could see them clapping as well and the players in the middle must hear and see this.
As for the boo boys? Please have some compassion for those with mental illnesses. Two chaps in the lav at half time thought 'our number 10 was the worst player to everwear our shirt'. The fact that they did not even know his name says volumes. They were aged about 50. See what I mean - memory shot!

Evening games always have a better atmosphere. Sometimes on a Saturday it`s hard to get up for it in the first half especially but this Saturday against Blackpool let`s have it loud and proud! Play like that every week and we will be flying up the table!
Everyone`s confidence will now be a lot higher and the players and management will be in no doubt that the support are fully behind them!
Best atmosphere for quite some time, bloody loved it, and great support from all that attended. Echo the quality over quantity comment from @stig.
Was a few of the usual numpties in NU that booed at half-time, but were immediately drowned out by clapping and support so duly piped down pretty quickly.
Roll on the next game and hopefully more of the same from the Valley faithful. COYA!!!!
I think the expectancy to get a hammering tied in with the atmosphere a night match seems to bring got the crowd going. Not condoning the 'Boo boys' for one minute but it does frustrate me when you watch those sort of 'kitchen sink and all' performances like last night and wonder why we can't do that every time?
We were the 12th man/woman (PC) and the support was superb.
Throat gone, hands sore, (shouting and clapping - nothing sexual) on to Saturday!!
Was brilliant. Why on earth could we not do that against Millwall?
We didn't do it against Millwall because the players gave us nothing to be positive and shout about. The crowd last night reacted to what was a good performance from the off besides a goalkeeping error.
The atmosphere is good at The Valley when the team plays well. This seems far more likely than the crowd causing the team to play well to me.
I don't get why we can't do it more often? Last night and Cardiff last season had a similar rally call pre-match, yet against a rival, even midweek the atmosphere is appalling.
Comments
those that had the stupidity to boo at half time you are not CAFC fans your idiots end of
Never heard any booing.
Great crowd.
Glad that I didn't hear any booing where I was - just applause at half time.
I heard a bit of booing at half time. Morons.
On the contrary, all I could hear was clapping and encouragement.
Crowd were simply fantastic tonight, especially the covered end.
Anyone who says that the crowd does not play a significant part in the flow of a game at this level needs their head tested.
Good support from all the stands not just the Covered End. Thought that was a bit much after the final whistle.

Really enjoyable game though. Loved it

I hope we can repeat it on Saturday.
Much prefer a night game cracking atmosphere last night
