Was nice to see plenty of goals and all of them coming from our Strikers. Mak had an excellent game, he really have them problems. Great to see Igor back in the goals and I thought he played well throughout. A bit more match fitness and we'll see his first touch improve again. I still think we need work at the back. Not just with our defenders, but the way we defend as a unit. I don't want to be too critical though, we've needed a win for some time, and we had to battle for it at times today, but all the players put in a good shift and worked tirelessly for the 90 minutes. We absolutely must follow this up against Bristol City next week though, we have to keep it going.
Come on stop the shocking Rotherham bit, we shipped 11 goals in two away games we get an early goal, we let one in we couldve folded, we never we made Rotherham look shit, they didnt do it just themselves, they had good chances and put us under a bit of pressure at times
Our passing needs to improve, our defending at times is poor but at ither times its good, our finishing today was excellent
I have watched their goal now about ten times and fox yes was square but Hendo and ch shit header caused the goal, Fox was steady and certainly not out of place
Think he gets hard time on here at the min
Really like seeing Mak fired up but needs to keep it too a level that he is in control still but its great to have someone like that, and as for lookman holy shit the boy is nstural
What a turnaround, and HOORAH finally beating one of our relegation rivals. The sort of result that will put a real dent in Rotherham's confidence too, theyhave another 6 pointer against Bolton next weekend.
Watched it on a stream, finishing was excellent, team looked organised. That's why you have a proper coach! Thank f**k they have one decent one in the network. Penalty miss saved a nervy end and Rotherham looked poor. Good start to the run to get us out of danger.
Well done the team, minimum 6 more wins required. Changes nothing - screw the regime, RD out, KM out!
I reckon we need more than 6 wins, 8 at least. God knows where they are going to come from as I don't think we have too many teams as bad as Rotherham left to play, excepting Bolton.
Next 4 games are Bristol City and Cardiff at home and Fulham and Preston away. Play like we did today, with the same effort and skill (and with, for a change, a bit of luck) and there's no reason why each of those games can't be won.
Watched the stream. Feelings changed from trepidation to hope to disbelief to fear to exultation.
Shame big Mak did the old hand to his ear trick after scoring his first, although can't really blame him after the stick he gets.
Especially pleased for Mak (2 goals), Igor (he's back), Cuz (what a performance), JBG (two assists). But bollocks to too much analysis. 4-1 away. 4 bloody 1 bloody away. Just gonna enjoy the feeling.
Proper coach makes a lot of difference.
Support the team. Bollocks to the regime. Love my Charlton.
Whew...Hendo's saves, Solly being Solly, JBG shows his abilities on the ball, a Lookman goal, Big Mak's fiery goals & JJ's leadership....nice combination brought out by Jose Riga. Dodged a bullet with the missed penalty and Beccios' close chance but a win is a win and if it brings confidence going against better opposition - its just what the team needed......glad I got to watch it. Totally different team on display than what I have heard about.....
Great to see a proper team performance - no-one played badly and most played very well. Big Mak is a head case but took goals well.
As their guy ran up to take pen I thought this is going over the bar and it did. Could virtually relax after that and very well taken goal by Lookie - he is some talent and so hope we can keep him a little longer.

Brilliant result and a huge 3 points that drags more teams into the battle, including Fulham. Our game there looks like being another six-pointer. I don't care how bad Rotherham were according to some people. A couple of weeks ago we would have lost this game. Loads of credit to our players for today.
Massive confidence boost and we have a week to work on a few things as a team to get ready for another huge game next week.
Stream was good, dodgy five minutes after half time but that was it.
I'm genuinely, and pleasantly, surprised at how clinical we were today. Our defense does seem to have more concentration now although there were still some shaky moments. One in particular when Lennon slipped, however he recovered very well to get pressure on the Rotherham player. I didn't see a good replay of their goal but it looked as though Fox had tucked in too much and Bergdich didn't come round on the cover.
Saying that, Bergdich feeling the Riga motivation that CH had last time round? He was a threat and pressed well, plus an assist. Makienok looked more up for the fight today and took both his goals well. Igor, if he gets back to the form of first 10games of last season we'll stay up. Cousin owned the midfield, clever passing, good running and tackling. JBG, 3 assists, can't do much more than that. His bit of skill in the first half where he beat 2 or 3 players was beautiful.
Stroud was having a good game but you knew he would give a penalty against us at some point. Rotherham got exactly what they deserved after trying to get Makienok sent off, that CB is an absolute prick of the highest order.
In conclusion, Riga is God.
From what I've seen, it looked like Fox was covering the central position because Tex and Lennon got dragged out to the right. If you want to be very critical you could say he didn't get back to his own position quick enough once Lennon and Tex recovered, but it's harsh to blame it on Fox, he can't be two places at once.
Sorry to piss on every ones fireworks Yes it was a great away win and a pressure game we just had to win but it was was Rotherham who with Bolton are the worse 2 teams in the league Yup even worse than us I do think Riga was the best we was going to get and I quite like the guy So prove me wrong and win the next 3
I know its only Rotherham but we've got to give credit where its due.
This sort of game is hugely our achilles heal yet we brushed Rotherham aside and were rarely threatened by them, the same where you are in the league is where you deserve to be in the league (so that surely means it should have been a tight 1-0 win) yet instead we brushed them aside as though they werent there... Seeing that Rotherham have beaten Bolton / Brighton / Hull I was extremely disappointed with them.

I love the optimism a win brings!
3 hours ago we were as good as relegated, now we're in with a chance of winning 5 on the spin!

Interesting that Bergdich played the full 90
Superb.

My only concern is Lennon & Fox, thought they both had a few too many dodgy defensive moments that could have easily been punished by a stronger team.
Well done lads, real momentum changing result today. :-)
Astonishing after our season that we are only one point from safety.
Well done to the team and all that went to support

Well done!

Very much enjoyed our trip to New York.
So good to see smiling Addicks on way out.

Igor and Mak 3 goals between on their first start is positive. Looked dodgy at the back but saw Bauer at the end so he can't be far away.
We looked threatening going forward which was pleasing, there's hope yet!
Duchatelet didn't want Riga, hence why he gave the job to the Serb.
Only when his number 2 and maybe his number 3 said this is crazy did he relent. The protests must be stepped up.
If Roland sells Lookman before the end of the season, it will prove 100% that he wants us relegated.
