Dillon has been a revelation this season and he will be sorely missed for the rest of the season. For a 20 yr old he has a very grown up head on his shoulders, you'd think he had 10-15 years of League experience behind him. I genuinely can't think of a goal that he can be held responsible for this past season. If we go up, then the hope is that we'll have him back for another year. He's become a bit of a Cheltonian this season and more than deserves a league winners medal.
In terms of what happened at Eastleigh, his foot planted in the sand on their disgrace of a pitch and he twisted his knee, tearing his medial ligament.
I have been banging the drum for Dillon for a while now. In many ways the overlooked keeper at Charlton given our plethora of goalkeepers. I have always been impressed by his (as SiRobin alludes too) demeanour and maturity, he likes a penalty save too. I believe his contract is up this summer, and he will like as not eventually emerge as the one that got away. Never mind we have Tex Me Rog on their contracts to compensate!
SiRobin, I always liked Jack Munns in our U21 team, good attitude, good football brain, good decision maker...how has he been doing his height notwithstanding?
Good luck to you guys, you follow an actual football club, we follow a club that has become a basket of snakes writhing in chite.
Jack Munns has been brilliant, like most of our players in fairness. His dead-ball delivery has been fantastic and, despite his stature, doesn't back out of any challenges. Likes to win a header as well, which is amazing considering I'm taller than him at only 5'7.
He was a strong case for player of the season (for me personally) until very recently, but he's not played much over the last 5-6 games as Gary Johnson changed our formation due to another long term injury. He's expected to start tomorrow though and we know he'll slip straight back into the team.
We've had a fantastic season, we were a basket-case ourselves last season which saw us dumped (deservedly) out of the Football League. It's now in our hands with 10 games to go with getting back up, but the majority of us are just glad to have our club back to normal.

Phillips seemed very confident and made one or two very good saves. Bromley scored from the spot.
Munns looked good, kept the ball on the floor and always looking to pass or receive the ball.
