    Yeah I get we like Olaofe because he's a bit bigger and tronger than TC but honestly they're a similar calibre and TC is more creative imo. Neither seem great at holding up, crossing or shooting.

    Ball forward headed on but their keeper gets to it before Tanto can (and I think he might've been off anyway)

    Stoke counter but Anderson is trackingback well to clear.

    Have our players got wheels for boots or something. They don't seem to be able to stop or change direction.

    Ramsay hauled to the floor to the left of our box so we have a free kick.

    Honestly, Anderson has done a fair bit tonight. He's only been on 10 mins.

    This has been a turgid game of football. Awful.

    Stoke down our left, Macca heads the cross clear, they come back again, and Knibbs gets done for a pull back so they have a free kick.

  • Who was in charge of our summer recruitment?  Based on reports..

    Apter         £2.5M
    Olaofe       £1M
    JRC.           £750K
    Knibbs.      £2M
    Kelman.     £3.5M
    Kaminski.  £1M
    Total          £10.75M

    Free transfers
    Burke, Bell, Carey, Hernandez, Bree (loan).

    The free's are, so far, way better and more important than the ones we spent money on.  That is a big worry, the hit rate needs to be miles better.

    Not for the first time, Knibbs blowing out of his arse after 15mins on the pitch.

    We’ve seen the difference in keepers tonight and we’ve barely had a shot

    We have a free kick just inside our half, ball launched forward, their keeper collides with Jones and goes down injured.

    Looking at the positives, both tonight and Saturday our defence in the second half has been impregnable

    Valley Floyd Road ringing out loud and clear, just before the final whistle.
  • Well done travelling Addicks singing to the bitter end

    I assume they checked JRC’s passport to make sure it’s the same fella they thought they were signing from Blackburn? He runs like he’s got bricks in his boots

    Considering who's been playing ahead of him, he can feel a bit hard done by. Knibbs has hardly pulled up trees in midfield 
  • FT 3-0, roll on Coventry Saturday...🤦‍♂️
  • Always a pleasure to enjoy your company on here tonight people... Only enjoyable thing about my day today!!

    From memory it is what was reported at the time for each one. May be wrong, my memory is not what it was
