Post-match Thread: Doncaster v Charlton | Good Friday | April 2nd, 2021

Three points and a clean sheet is how our visit to Doncaster will go in the record books. 

After going ahead on 11 mins, the rest of the entire match was end to end and, at times, frantic.

My MOM was Ryan Inniss, who anchored the defense in his first return since a long injury layoff. But also right up there challenging for the honours were Maarten and JFC among others.

Looks like we’re back in the playoff places too. 

Over to you.

    Seeing Purrington + being on Sky felt like a Play off game!

    Tuesday being postponed only means we have more time to train and work out the best team, as MA obviously did today.

    We all ready have a better shape than under Bowyer. 
    A nervous last 10 minutes but it's looking more promising

    Congratulations Adkins on your first win as Charlton manager. Defence looked solid for the most part today. Onwards and upwards!

    Huge result away at the team who are second in the form table at home. Made them look pretty toothless. 

    Thought we could've had more but for the decision making. 

    Saw a lot of people on the match thread saying it's not pretty, it's league one, when is it ever! A great result and a lot to build on.

    Not a game for the ages but I saw it and will cherish it ... as I won’t see another until the playoff semi final! 


    Good night nurse - that felt wonderful

    It feels like things are coming together, possibly a bit late but nonetheless.  That team looked as though they actually gave a damn.

    A great all round team effort,really in hindsight,they presented no danger to our goal,I will pick out one man,Darren Pratley ,I lost count of the interceptions and the times he stopped their attacks before they got anywhere near our goal,sure he has his bad moments but this man is a credit to his trade.

    Big win that. Especially with Sunderland up next and not playing Monday

    Defensive solidity reminded me of the 2-0 win over Pompey earlier in the season - just kept them at arms length the whole game. Very good result

    We looked comfortable.

    Thought some of the forward passing was still a little lazy but the way we’re playing looked very different to what I’ve been used to this season. 

    Inniss is a fantastic centre back and will be massive if he stays fit for this last set of games. 
  • Good win. Innis is a monster.

    A very professional second half performance and we always carried a threat up top.

    JFC was outstanding in the second period and what a super performance from Ryan Inniss after 5 months out. Well done the big man !

    Clean sheet.
    Three points 
    Lots of effort. 
    Utter rubbish in terms of quality of football. 
    Overall slightly worse than usual as we didn't even look dangerous up front. Very fortunate to score once.
    Innis looks assured 

    Bogle really is rubbish.

    Adkins is so positive its infectious, you can see why certain players have lifted

    Wasn’t blown with performance but a great result. Very similar to Wigan, Rochdale and Bristol Rovers away.

    JFC getting the plaudits but Inniss a clear MOM for me. 

    That 11 and formation won’t take us into the play offs though .

    Just nice to go into the weekend with a win though

    Three things we learned:
    We were right to let Bogle go. 
    Maatsen may be better up front. 

    And most importantly - the big man is back in defence, more clean sheets to come I reckon. 

    Well done Nads and the lads. 
  • Reminded me a lot of the Semi-Final from two years ago up there

    Doncaster had a lot of the ball for the majority of the game yet didnt do enough with it, we were a constant threat on the break and got a deserved goal that was extremely well taken for someone who hasnt scored in their Senior career yet.

    Second Half was again like that sunny day in May where Doncaster dictated proceedings but like that Taylor miss (that would have made it 3-0), it was Stockley who was unfortunate not to see it made 2-0, although was the right call and like it was said on the Match Thread, was a carbon copy of our disallowed goal @ Blackpool

    Then it went into the last 10-15mins, things got nervy and thankfully on this occasion; Doncaster didnt grab a consolation.

    Would it have been deserved had they done, I honestly dont think so, think the back five (Amos included) did a good enough job, remained organised throughout and managed the game extremely well - Inniss bringing the ball out at times was so helpful.
  • Fans wont like Adkins view on Gilbey, thought he was phenomenal

    Efficient enough, more solid, Innis the Beast he was before injured and a well ground out 3 points. Won’t be getting carried away until we have a run of wins under our belt. Delighted for us all, sun is shining, birds are singing, lovely to see us with a clean sheet and winning!
  • Well done Nadkins praising Gilbey who I thought had a good game. 👍

    Yessssssssss! 

    Huge win that’s going to make those around us in the table notice and worry about us again. 

    Clean sheet. A win on tv. First goal for Maatsen. And still 3.5 days until work again.

    A battling away performance & 3 points. 

    The main thing I took from today is that Ryan Inniss makes such a huge difference to us defensively 
    Makes you wonder where we'd be placed in the table if Inniss hadn't been injured for so long?
