  • Our first corner of the evening coming up...
  • This is a Stevenage side that have won their first two games as well. 

    Basically, League One is proper poor and I'm glad we're out of it. 
    It is a much changed side though, Stevenage made 7 changes from their team on Saturday.

    But it's also a measure of our strength in depth now. The lineup we have out tonight would do pretty well in league one.
  • Good half 
  • HT 2-0 nice and comfortable stuff from us...
  • HT: Charlton 2-0 Stevenage

    We might never concede another goal, ever again... let alone lose!!
    Is the Battleship around tonight FA, or moored ready for Saturday...
  • This kid 😍
    He’s going to be such a good player.

    I was looking at it tonight and wondering how close to a first team squad this would have been if the unthinkable happened and we lost at Wembley...

  • Don’t want to burst the bubble, and put the mokkers on it, but this is way to comfortable at the moment!

    Good to see the subs, lead by Docherty, all congratulating Fullah at half-time. 
  • Is Dixon about?

    This commentator is a dickhead.
    He sounds like the moose from talksport (it’s not him though) 
  • So comfortable it's almost boring at this point. Second half the same please with no injuries. 
  • Leaburn showing a bit of emotion after a possible elbow from Freestone...
    He's certainly easy to wind up at times I've found.

    Probably one of his biggest weaknesses
    Saw that that last season, he should just laugh it off, he has scored his goal, why get wound up by player trying to get you carded. `It's going to happen Miles.
  • Anyone else watching on Sky Sports+ getting constant 1/2 second freezes? It’s driving me mental.

    As for the game, our reserves are better than the Stevenage reserves. No big surprise.

    Might be harsh, but I just don’t see anything in Rylah that explains why he keeps getting these sorts of chances. Would rather have seen Enslin.

    He is at our game tonight
  • Anderson playing really well from a deeper position, less energy and more composure than usual. Rankin-costello really growing into game with some lovely passing. Rylah great going forward, not so great defensively. Leaburn and tanto up top making a great partnership.
  • We look like a team keeping a side in the league below at arm's length while giving some youngsters a chance to shine. You sense we could properly go through the gears if we wanted to. This never happens, I don't recognise it and I feel uncomfortable
    Call me selfish but I'd love to see us do that over the last 15-20 mins. 
  • Decent work out 1st half.  Solid in defence,  busy midfield and dangerous up front.  Rylah growing in confidence and Fullah excellent.  Tanto is a bit of an enigma with some great touches but a few poor choices too. Knibbs is everywhere and looking terrific. 

    I'd pull Knibbs and Leaburn to give Kanu and Kelman good run out.  Also be interesting if Enslin and Laq feature as wing back options. 

    COYA 
  • Nothing to complain about that half. Shows what a decent squad does in terms of competition as the players out there tonight are trying to stake a claim 

    Echo what has already been said Fullah one hell of a prospect! I hope he doesn’t go out on loan he will learn loads being around this group and I’m sure he will get first team minutes 
  • Also if Tanto doesn’t start ahead of TC at the weekend NJ really is mental lol

    I have no problem with him but I thought he said the Mitchell Brothers half way through the 1st half !
    I was only joking when I said yesterday that Phil and Grant might both play 😀

    2-0 HT and great to see Charlton with a different XI to Saturday and the whole team up for it. Harvey looking like he needs the minutes and he may get another 15 or could be replaced at HT.

    Fullah does look a talent and I have been impressed with Karoy so far and his passing is looking much sharper.
