Just shows how good this team CAN be and how frustrating it is that they haven't done it often enough all year.
Morgan brings so much. Really hope he stays in the side. JFC is great but I think Morgan's dead balls are better. (Insert Kenneth Williams pic)
Chuks is the best player in the team. But we all know the issues with his fitness.
For all the understandable gloom on Saturday this team and these players AREN'T all crap, lazy and uncaring. Even Watson looked decent second half!
Roll on Sunday, it's a thin chance but it's a chance.

Feel more confident that it's not in our hands on Sunday as we'd definitely find a way to cock it up if it was.
Much improved 2nd half, unfortunately we just haven't played with that type of urgency enough this season.2 -
Already been said plenty of times above, but Stockley comes across as a lovely guy. Very honest interview, no ego, and knows where he and the team need to improve.

I don't think we can look back at key moments this season and also assume it would be in addition to the 3 points today. If we went into tonight in 6th place, we might have played like we did v Crewe.Athletico Charlton said:Harsh to pick on one moment in a season full of so many individual errors that have cost us points but that penalty miss v Oxford seems so key now, would be all in our hands. Oh well, roll on to Hull and hope. Excellent performance tonight.Really hope we find a way to keep Chuks, he is just such a good player at this level and no way we get 4 better strikers. Even if he only plays half our games he brings so much.6 -
Stockley has 8 goals for us since January. With or without a strike partner if we can get him in permanently we should. People can talk about not liking the way we play with him all we want but that's a brilliant goal return. He's not the issue, the players around him are. We should improve those

Could argue that Portsmouth will be thinking the same with the Marquis own goal last week
Then we really would be up against it1 -
I'm strangely frustrated by that 2nd half performance.
We're still likely to miss out on the playoffs, because this very same group of players didn't put in a few more performances like that!5 -

We’ve turned in more performances like the one in the first half than we have the second. It’s frustrating, but we are where we are because we haven’t been good enough.stoneroses19 said:First half summed up our home play this season. Lovely to see us turn it on in second half.
I appreciated the fact they went for it in the second half, as its all become a bit too predictable with Stockley up top on his own.
Give us another performance like that against Hull and finish the season on a high, regardless of whether or not we get in the play offs. That’s all I want.
Fair play to them for their second half performance0 -
First and foremost a very good win, but I'm actually going to have a bit of a moan. Why did we stop playing after we went 3 nil up, Lincoln clearly didn't want to be there and had nothing to play for, an extra goal or 2 could be have been huge for Sunday's showdown and now we rely on both Oxford and Portsmouth not winning. If we would have conceded from an attacking style then fair enough shut up shop but not when in the ascendancy and instead we give a goal away trying to sit back and defend which we haven't be able to do all season. My next part to my moan is fucking idiots like Pratley and Aneke getting stupid bookings for time wasting or over the top challenges, this has to be one of the reasons why we concede so many late goals this season. Silly booking's meaning they cant put in that challenge in dying moments.13

Adkins just joked he’s going to kick Aneke up the arse because he should be playing 90 minutes.5

I bet at some point on Sunday we will be in 6th place but a controversial goal or jammy last minute goal somewhere will be our undoing.14

He was going to get Schwartz to do it, but he missed.stoneroses19 said:Adkins just joked he’s going to kick Aneke up the arse because he should be playing 90 minutes.12 -
Far better at 442, we just play much better than 433.
Aneke makes a huge difference, if only he could stay fit.
Hope I am wrong but just can’t see both the other two dropping points and us winning.
At least it keeps it going to the last game.
Go for it Nige, shit or bust.4 -
Lovely little 15 min spell second half of what could have been this season. Very frustrating as it clearly is within our ability.Hated how we were set up first half, really not been convinced so far with some of Adkins formation and player selections. We got there in the end though, a good win that keeps us in it.Really pleased for Stockley with that goal. Hate how we play without a partner for him but he works his nuts off.3

Interesting what Adkins was just saying about Aneke what with it being physical rather than a mental problem2

It's so funny the number of people who have slagged Stockley off despite the fact he has scored 8 goals and he's played up front by himself for most of the recent games getting s**t kicked out of him by 3 defenders.
He should be our number one target to sign.12 -

Mentioned to my Dad during the game, feel like it’s going to be similar to the last day of 09/10. We finished 4th that season but at some point on final day we were 2nd. Imagine Sunday we’ll be 6th at some point but one of the others will get the win they need.Chippycafc said:I bet at some point on Sunday we will be in 6th place but a controversial goal or jammy last minute goal somewhere will be our undoing.1 -
I missed the first half, set the alarm incorrectly didn't i. But looking at the match thread I was surprised we went in 0-0, and we were dire. I expected us to be losing tbf.
Smashing performance 2nd half, chuks is lucky not to get n early bath. Great goals. Defensively we looked composed. Albie seemed to relish the role JFC usually plays in.
It's just so Charlton to keep us dreaming, can't wait for Sunday now!
Most surprising is that Jayden is a posh boy!! Never heard him speak, expected him to sound like my northern monkey missus!2 -
Has Adkins just pulled out the famous "Don't get to high with the highs, too low with the lows" Curbs quote whilst next to Curbs?!

Albie was excellent. JFC needs to keep his game basic and play at intensity. It's so frustrating seeing him strut around as if he's better than he is.3

Really thought we were going to down with a whimper tonight but the boys proved me wrong. Such a shame though that it will probably amount to nothing come final whistle Sunday because I still feel that results will go against us and we’ll miss out. Which considering it was in our hands a couple of games ago is so f’ing annoying. Frustrating is the one word that sums this season up for me.4

The fact we could end the season with 3 strikers on 10+ goals is great.ForeverAddickted said:
