I actually joined in with the Cambridge fans chanting. 

Can see why Cambridge would feel a bit hard done by, we didn't play well at all but the difference was we took our chances.

Thought Ironside was lucky to stay on with that blatant elbow, Stockley really needs to stop getting involved in the silly stuff though.

So happy for Washington, I bloody love that bloke was really yelling for him to go and get the hat trick at the end.

I think the performance can be put down to tiredness after Tuesday, a lot of those players need a bit of a rest before the busy period. They are all showing that this is a team capable of a top 6 finish as I thought at the start of the season, my fear is that we are overworking the ones available due to the number of injuries and that we are one key player away from pulling a muscle and that is our chances gone.

One of those we'd have definitely lost under NA but we're a different proposition these days. 

They were the bastard love child of John Beck, and we won, so them and the pound shop Grealish can do one

We were less fluid than Tuesday because Cambridge gave us far less space and had a much better shape than Ipswich. They competed for every ball and whatever you think about their tactics, they were everything that Ipswich weren't.

That being said, Charlton stood up well and gradually started to match Cambridge physically, which kept us in front...just. Nobody had a shocker but some were a bit below the recent high levels. The good thing was that we actually finished the game strongly and were helped with a decent enough showing from Souare and an excellent/composed effort from DJ. 

This was a good win against a very useful opponent. It could easily have been very different but our commitment got us through.

Seems that Sandgaard has randomly shown up at the Oak

Hahaha ffs what a guy ! I love the bloke but he is proper Scandie Mental. Wish I had a £ for how many times someone tells him to give KJ the job whilst he is in there 😂😂😂

Just throwing it out there, but people would be going mental at Albie Morgan for the last two Rob Lee's sons performances.

Not saying he's bad, just he needs a rest and a convincing competitor in that role. 

Come on back soon JFC.

Oh come on mate, let it go 😂

Ignoring the latter half of my post I see.

The difference being the Lee has actually performed very well in more than 1 game this season. 

Quite correct that he has been consistently good whereas Morgan has struggled to find any kind of form and his progression since Bow went has evidently stunted and actually regressed. 

Doesn't change the fact that Lee has looked tired last few games and really could do with a decent competitor.

Albie is exactly where he should be, on the bench at best, hoping that someone takes him on a loan.

 I think the best place he could be is out on loan.

Well you have your reasoning then, exactly why Lee shouldn't be getting pelters is because he has shown what he can do but is likely tired from the minutes he has played. Morgan on the other hand used up all his available excuses a long time ago.

I'm saying Lee needs a decent competitor. I do not think Albie is that guy and have not suggested recently that he is.

We have been a million times better with Lee in the side and it's definitely time we gave Albie a loan out. Vennings has probably overtaken him by playing consistent men's football.
