    Leaburn looks really sharp, Kelman probably hoping he gets some game time up front with him soon

    Some good performances particularly first half. Second half was a bit of a chore.

    Another league one or two team next round and then a big boy away please.

    It was a decent performance.. pretty comfortable until Stevenage started to bring their first team players on .. and our young players started to look very tired .. but people write of Berry and that’s why he is still so important to this side .. … don’t get the high ball to Kelman and Berry and he showed what he can do with a lovely pass from Berry and Kelman unlucky not to score ..

    Oof Kelman’s body language looks terrible I hope he doesn’t beat himself up he just needs time I think 
    I’m not actually sure he’s a good fit for this team with how we play. Of course he needs to adapt and we play more direct then Orient.

    probably just needs time. Hard game for him when we have several youngsters on the pitch and just trying to see the game out.

    Fuller MOTM for me, Alex Mitchell played well at the back as well.

    Kelman not for me on 2 glimpses 
    I personally wasn’t sold before we bought him. But we need to give him time. Not as though he’s had much to feed off so far 
    If you can't make your own chances (like many of our forwards can), you have to show movement and get into space. My prediction, he won't get ten goals even if he takes our penalties (earned by others). 

    TC got pelters for no end product on Saturday, but Kelman was in the box surrounded by 3 or 4 defenders, basically static.

    Do our recruitment team not look at stats and heat maps?
  • Is the second round draw done regionally ?
    Yes it is, and PL sides who are not in Europe come into the draw, so we could get drawn against the likes of West Ham, Fulham, Brighton, Bournemouth.

    People mocking Wrexham 175 minutes into the season and then Wrexham win. Maybe Charlton supporters should focus on charlton

    This has been a proper ding dong battle hasn't it? The match thread, I mean... 
    I still don't know what a melt is
    You'd probably know it as a 'pillock'

    In the life long tradition of Charlton keepers he fails to save a pen.

  • Love me a good cup shock! 😂

    Would have loved to seen the action today. Great to see some of the youngsters and fringe players starting and delivering, evidently!

    Let's hope Kelman gets off the mark soon. He needs that confidence boost. COYR
