  • That was abysmal defending 
  • Awful so far, shower of shit at the back. Should be 0-2.
  • Its always against the run of play.
  • Dan Udoh. Charlton have looked so shaky at the back again and no one comes out of that goal with any credit. How Udoh was able to manoeuvre into the space to shoot is beyond me.  24'
  • get rid of Thomas ffs
    He might be nice but he's not a good footballer and he makes us jittery
  • Thomas and Gillesphey have been utter toilet today so far
  • Absolutely terrible!!
  • Apparently we've now reverted to the 3cb and wing backs.
  • Its always against the run of play.
    There is no run of play in this match.

  • We set that up for Udoh (ironic its the sound we seem to make when we concede every week) perfectly with our defensive mishaps
  • Pathetic. Formation is a mess. Defending laughable.

    Considering they have fewer goals than most in this league, it shows how bad we are

    Although if that is a back 3 now you could sail 6 Titanic's through the space in between 
  • I know Jones likes a diamond, but we already look miles better since we reverted back to 3-5-2.
  • Very strange to start with some formation we haven't played under Jones before.

    Appears we've  now gone 352 but we've ended up with a left footer at right wing back.

    All very strange

    Addicks corner  29'
  • Surprised he trialed the diamond today given our defence can barely function with 5 at the back. I wouldn't put Gillesphey or Thomas in a 4 and playing Small deeper feels like a waste given our lack of other attacking outlets. If he's going to switch between 352 and the diamond next season we're going to need much better CBs
  • Crowd update: the people that turned up 7 minutes into the game have already scarpered downstairs for a pint, on 29 mins. May as well stay in the pub

    Corner comes to nothing  29'


    Ha ha ha
  • Wouldn’t keep a single defender or goalkeeper currently on the books
  • What I don’t get is why did it take for them to score for Jones to change it. Like what did he think was going to happen?
    1. 30'

      Offside, Charlton Athletic. Connor Wickham is caught offside.

    To be fair to Jones, the man barely has an attacking midfielder. Hes even had to chuck in Edun to try and provide some energy and attacking drive. 

    I like Anderson but I doubt there are many teams he'd start AM for in the division. 

    And with that we're 1-0 down. Excellent.
    It's true we lack a great 10, but both May and TC have played there. Mileage may vary for both, but, with a midfield of Anderson, Dobbo, and Coventry behind them I think that's more interesting that what we started with. Plus either can drift wide to make up for the width we'd be lacking with Thomas at RB.

    His tactical genius would overwhelm the Shrews and we'd be 3 up by now?
  • Did Luton play a 41212 in their league one promotion season? 

    Fair chance that's what we could be aiming for next season.
  • Carlisle 1-1
  • Well, if this game doesn't persuade everyone to come rushing back for the new season in August with renewed optimism then nothing will ...
    The lap of honour at the end of the game will be fun if it stays like this!
