  • I think the next two games will show us the mettle of Robbo. Playing JJ, Crofts and multiple CBs on the bench or Botaka, Chicksen, Tex and Ba. His own man (where he asesses loanee recalls in January) or a regime apologist.

    Yep that about sums it up, Now let's wait and see

    Will be interesting to see if Tex plays.
  • it's quite funny that playing JJ is now seen as the regime apologist way

    Not funny just sad
  • Well yeah. I actually think JJ will leave the club quite soon to become a manager, maybe in L2/National League
  • Watching the highlights, in the shot of Robinson at the start, is Karel Fraeye sitting to his left in the row in front of him?

    Indeed it will.

    I understand that Katrien has stated privately that she wished Brussell would play him as he's fit & there's definitely NO financial implications if he is selected....

    But then we know our CEO has problems in recognising the difference between truth & fantasy.

  • Botaka: an enigma, talented with the ball at his feet, but is he selfish and lazy or just really really dim? output always so much less than his apparent parts suggest - what is the opposite of synergy? entropy?

    I have called him a luxury player for League 1 in the past,
    but strange words on a day when after Duffy went off for United and Botaka came on for CAFC, at last we had someone who could run at their defense and show some silky skills. We have enough water carriers already. Without Holmes and Lookman double marked, Botaka did well in his cameo role.

    What did you think he did wrong yesterday ?

    Or like others, did you head for home early ?


    Stayed to the end and apart from getting tripped up don't recall Botaka's contribution, can't recall anything he's added beyond the first 5 minutes or so of his very first appearance, the longer he's on the less he seems to contribute.
  • Posting without attending :

    Sounds as if a point was a get out of jail one. That's ok. Good that Robinson will have clearly seen our deficiencies and will look to address as soon as he is able.

    As long as we continue to tick over the points tally I don't mind having our cracks exposed

    Speak for yourself. I'm not in favour of having my crack exposed.

    Only watching the video clip - but for their goal, that Sheff Utd freekick routine was well thought out.


    Caught us absolutely cold with no defender available to pick up their wide runner penetrating behind our defence.

    Why do Charlton rarely seem to put together clever deadball moves like that?

    For their goal, Sheff Utd also had a player at the very end of the wall who was there specifically to block Lookman trying to make a run to block the goalscorer - we were asleep, big time.

    Seeing that our equaliser also came from a free kick, maybe we also can put together clever deadball moves!

    It was certainly a decent cross from the unlikely source of Chicksen, right into the danger zone, as opposed to hitting the first man or disappearing into the crowd.
  • Despite there being multi camera angles, it was still hard to see, but looked like Baur groined it in.

    Or midrifted it in.

    Left after 85 mins (long drive home) and assumed we had lost. Didn't hear any roar whilst walking away from the ground to suggest we had equalised.


    Botaka 3

    Oh that explains it. How anyone can leave before the final whistle and marks players for the full game is beyond me
    Me thinks that seeing 85 mins of a 90 minute game is enough to give an opinion and mark players!
    Me thinks thou dost think incorrectly. Anything could happen in those remaining five or more minutes that could have a critical affect on the marks due.

    This is actually part of Robinson's cunning plan to get a two-and-a-half year payoff after only a week in the job. Pick Tex to start, be told he's only allowed to put him on the bench and not bring him on to actually play, then resign and sue for constructive dismissal.

  • Good to see our last minute goal has knocked the stuffing out of Sheff Utd.

    Losing 1-0 at home to Walsall tonight.

    Saturday was their cup final. They won't come good now
  • Well that's it then, mid-table for them, automatic for us.
  • Unbelieveable league. On Saturday's performance you'd hardly think it possible, that they'd lose at home to Walsall.
    Although, they do seem to lack a goal threat, apart from Billy Sharpe.

    Happy days.
    Unlikeable team. Apart from Duffy, because of the left peg.
    Fans hardly entered into the spirit of the protests either.
    Cheated for their goal too. (Watch the replay).

  • Sharp had a penalty saved late on last night
  • This league is there for the taking if we get things right in January

    I thought they pressed us but looked very limited. They only scored one goal - Phillips did make a coupel of good saves but I thought he could have stopped the goal. They stifled us through workrate, they may not have felt the need to play that way against Walsall. Did Duffy play against them? I think he looked their only player with anything about him ability wise.

    They also made a couple of defensive errors that we didn't punish because we needed torisk an extra forward!

    The amount they had to put into Saturday's game might not have helped them either.
