  • Good effort. Still a chance to get something in front of the fans second half

    Starting to feel positive so will have a look at United's bench again for a reality check. 

    Doing well just have no composure up front outside of Rak-Sakyi on occasion.

    Took about 35 minutes to settle into it

    Dobson had a glorious chance to create something... Eurrrghh that one is going to haunt me. 

    The gaps are there to attack. Do we have the composure to do it? Doesn't look like it at the moment, but we can hope
  • HT 1-0, Got to be pleased restricting them to that at half time, now for the half time team talk, and come out and give the same second half, we will score tonight, just don't give any silly goals away, and pens could still be on...COYR...👍

    I’ll take that at half time. Looked like they might win it in the first half at one point but we’ve regrouped after the goal, showed a bit of attacking ambition and as a result we’re not out if it. I wouldn’t say we look likely to equalize, but all the time there’s only one goal in it, we are in the game. 
  • Clare very poor! Everything coming through garnacho and Anthony! 

    We catch them on the break, but have no composure

    Need to orchestrate a red card if we can.

    We're turning over the ball really well. Just very nervy on the attack.

    JRS has been good and doesn't look fazed by the occasion.
  • Can't really fault the boys at all. It is clear the gulf in technical quality between the two teams - United make the pitch so big, and drag us in then get it out to their wingers and move the ball so well.

    But we have been very good value, and a bit less panic when we have pressed well and turned the ball over and we might have made some better chances.

    Fear a bit for the second half, as if we drop off even a bit, we are going to pumped. Keep this up, and maybe we can pull off a shock though.

    Played so well. Defensive discipline and smart on the counter. Can’t ask for more than that. Have a go second half boys. Fuck it

    The wood work has  been our friend this season more often than not 
    Fraser at Pompey? Leaburn at Lincoln?

    We have had some promising attacks and moments in the game so far.

    Charlton fans heard loud and proud over the United plastics - great job all that made it up!

    We've both had 1 shot on target. Hardly terrifying.

    cant be too disappointed with that half.
    You've limited them to only a handful of chances.

    You're getting numbers forward when you break, just got to get the final ball right.  You're still in this.

    One down at half time, nothing at all to be ashamed of.
    And it took a lovely strike (way beyond L1 level at least, we won't see a goal of that quality often) to grab that lead.

    We have not disgraced ourselves at all.

    Working hard and only a goal in it, plenty of noise from the Charlton fans.
  • Well done lads - need more composure on the attack but that's been a problem all season against League 1 opposition!

    1-0 but thought we'd have raised our game a bit more for the occasion tbh, like other underdogs tend to do.

    Bizarre half time analysis from ESPN. What are they expecting from us???

    We've got a big pitch too lol. They just said we're not used to their pitch side. It's 3m longer and 1m wider, hardly a difference.

    Good effort and definitely still in this. Look threatening on the break - just need that final pass to come off. Just fearing a sucker punch second goal. 
  • Defending better than I expected. Clare having a tough time.
