Charlton Athletic v Swansea City | Wednesday 3 October | Post-Match Thread

I thought we had two good shouts for a penalty. Chucks and the handball, which I think was the more obvious one. Bonne is behind the player and he uses the top half of his arm to stop the ball going to him.

I think the Chuks one was a penalty and a clear example if you want to demonstrate a ref bottle job to anybody. How can I avoid giving it?

I thought we played well, but Swansea were slightly better.
2 decent teams.
I'm amazed how many people scored Cullen above Gallagher.
Gallagher was excellent.
Cullen blew hot & cold, sometimes good, other times giving the ball away regularly.

Agreed. Thought Cullen had a particularly poor first half by his high standards. Gallagher wasnt as involved as he usually is but when in the game was his usual fantastic self. Shame he couldn't finish in the second half after skillfully collecting a pinpoint Williams' pass - feigning to shoot one time too many after bursting into the area.

Just saw a short yellow banner info piece on sky sports news saying a Swansea fan died in London after the Charlton game. Home that’s nothing to do with our nob-head element. 

Was this reported anywhere else?

Nothing to do with the game or anywhere near it. There’s a report online saying he was the person hit by a train at Earlsfield (it’s between Clapham Junction and Wimbledon). The Welsh paper report says Police were called to the incident at 9.41pm. It’s not being treated as suspicious.

Appreciate LB sees the players every day in training but for me Aneke must start Saturday 

Do we want to make our first substitution after 30 minutes?

Chucks simply isn't fit enough to start unfortunately. 

We don't know this.

We've never tried to play him longer!

A sad story. From the timing, he presumably wasn't even at the game
