So powderpuff at the back it’s unreal.

matthews might as well not have been there

5' Hope gets in too easily on the left and squeezes a shot under Amos at his near post. #cafc 0 #stfc 1

Amos should have done better there

Another avoidable goal conceded. Why, oh why do we make things so easy for our opponents 

Gravesend_Addick

0-1

Finally Golfie get's his chance to see us comeback to win from a 0-1 deficit. 

*clutching at straws after 5 minutes*

Four defenders and Amos miss the chance of clearing the shot

This! Time and time again. 

Scoham

Another good chance there

I've resorted to hysterical laughter when we inevitably concede early now

Fortune 82nd Minute

Put a few quid on 5-5.

Chuks to Millar, whose low cross just whizzes in front of Schwartz.

Matthews and Maatsen are definitely defensive fullbacks. Matthews especially. Would you rather have anyone else in this league facing down a winger one on one? 

OK maybe not Hallam Hope then

6' Millar squares for Schwartz in the box, but he can't get a toe on it. It had been a bright start for Charlton before that goal, with Aneke directing a shot narrowly wide just beforehand. #cafc 0 #stfc 1

It’s the best way. I laugh a lot these days funnily enough.

I thought adam matthews was championship quality

robroy

It’s like a knife through butter when they attack the back four

1. 7'

   Liam Millar (Charlton Athletic) wins a free kick in the defensive half.

2. 7'

   Post update

   Foul by Joel Grant (Swindon Town).

Braziliance

Beyond frustrating how easy that was, Matthews may as well claim an assist for that. I'll have to see it again but think Amos could have done better. Where is the cover as well? So many solo runs have been successful by other teams cutting in against us.

Proper woeful defending 

carly burn

What the fu*k is Jackson doing with this back four all week??

moutuakilla

We look very threatening moving forward but nervous and indecisive at the back

You don't need me to tell you. 

Someone posted yesterday that last time we won from going 1-0 down in a regular league game (not play -offs) was against Luton in 2019. 

Leuth

Matthews wasn't great there but Amos was much more culpable, terrible keeping

addick_for_life

I have always said Matthews first touch and going forward always good but he CANNOT DEFEND - a lot of the time he is not even in the right position. This time he was but he dived in and got beaten easily - watch how many goals we give away on that side when he plays !

Charlton (78 chances) 0 Swindon (1 Chance) 1 

I can see 5 o’clock already.

Callumcafc

I’m gonna say something controversial... bring back Ben Purrington

aliwibble

Pratley takes out Palmer - free kick, but no booking?
