  • Honestly don’t understand why so many people care about a cup we have zero chance of winning, are we so desperate to be pumped 6-0 by Arsenal in the third round? We’re playing the u21’s to see how they shape up against a League One side.

    I can’t believe our fans in the ground are mockingly chanting “we’ve got the ball… we’ve lost the ball” etc to a bunch of academy boys trying their best.
    You carry on not understanding Elliot, the rest of us will carry on wanting our team to win every game. 
    I also want the team to win? Just won’t wet the bed over the second round of the Carabao Cup.
    I wont wet the bed over it but would rather we werent dicked by a not particularly good League 2 side with that millwall reject in charge
    So you’d prefer we played our first team players to get one over Neil Harris?

    Where did he say that? 
  • Looking forward to Saturday so everyone can get back to supporting Charlton Kaminski Ramsay Jones Bell Edwards Coventry Docherty Carey Leaburn Campbell Athletic

    How is that not a foul on the edge of the box

    That really isnt what I'm saying is it.
    Sounds a bit like you are 

    if not apologies

    Fit enough for the bench though

  • Hopefully after this a few of the U21s can go and get National League loans and play regularly. Likes of Josh Laq,Enslin,Mbick and Mwamba could do with going and getting the experience under their belts. 
  • When you see that useless Kaikai causing our defence problems you know we are hopeless tonight.
  • Crap evening all around but won’t matter if we get three points on Saturday.

    And some people wanted TC dropped for one of the players on the pitch tonight.

    Now you are just talking shite .

  • Nice interplay between Enslin and Fullah but Enslin's cross is collected by the keeper
  • There is only one major issue with tonight-our reserves look crap. We only beat Stevenage in the last round, who were playing their reserves for most of the game, by bringing on first teamers. It does not augur well for when injuries/suspensions hit. Let us hope it was just a bad day at the office.
  • 8 mins added time.
  • 8 minutes to turn this around or for Cambridge to get their fourth 
  • Interested to hear NJ post match after this 
  • Enslin always looks to take on his man but needs to improve his end product and decision making, it will come in time

    Might be one of a few reasons as to why Jones did what he did tonight. Especially with the Transfer Window about to close. Refuse to accept that there isn't a bigger picture going on here, and its not just a case of "Not giving a shit about the League Cup"

    Go to bed mate,you're obviously a bit tired and looking for a row🙄

    That was much better
  • Enslin deserved an assist there

  • Ooh, Mwamba right to Enslin, nice cross, but cleared.

    Eh? 
  • 8 minutes added...c'mon ref ffs
  • Enslin fouled and Cambridge get a free kick
  • Who at the club thinks Mitchell is a CB? He's not built for it. Surely DM would be more his position. 
  • Need to be more serious about cup games, appreciate other's need game time but momentum and a winning mentality is vital.
  • Enslin gets thrown to the floor. Ref gives free kick to Cambridge
  • Ref gives a free kick against Enslin presumably for handball after he got fouled. Lino get grief from our fans again.
  • Crap evening all around but won’t matter if we get three points on Saturday.

    And some people wanted TC dropped for one of the players on the pitch tonight.
    Campbell gets to play with Leaburn, Carey, Docherty, Edwards, etc. 

    Not really a like-for-like is it. 
  • Apart from a few bits from Fullah and Insulin no other player has offered anything.
    At the end of the day Charlton, for whatever reason, didn’t put out a team that could win this game. Couldn’t win against Cambridge for first time in 32 years.
