    Not sure this Charlton team have what it takes to stay up. Deficiencies all over the pitch. Manager who every season goes through a period of wearing blinkers. Unless this week brings in some genuine quality then I think we’ll be back down with the dead men next season. 
    Not going to happen, Clarke & Dykes probably decent signings FOR US, Luke Chambers just unbelievable nonsense from this football club. Sadly we're deep in the shit & I don't see a way out.
    I’m reasonably confident he’ll turn out to be one of our best players by the end of the season and everyone will be hoping he comes back next year.
    I thought he looked alright in fairness. Naturally lacking match fitness but dont think he will take long to get up to scratch.

    You play someone who is not 100% fit in a local derby to get some game time? Does Jones not realize what this game meant to us fans FFS.

    To be fair mate, if you'd said the opposite I'd have fallen off my chair!

    That may well be the case, unfortunately he’s not the answer right now, probably get 60 minutes out of him next week, then 3 games in just over a week, so probably it will be half a dozen games before he gets to 90 minutes.

    My Mate who is a toolbox season ticket holder ( yes i know ) said it was the most one sided derby he had seen in his lifetime and it should have been double the final score if they had took their chances . 
    Smack him  ;)
  • It's all been said, but I came away from the Den yesterday thinking I don't think I can put myself through that again.
    I actually left early, which I never do, straight after the penalty. It was a relief not to be held in and to get away pretty quickly.
    First half we competed without troubling their goal and with them having all the chances.
    Second half. Fcuk me, it will take some time to get over that. What a shambles.
    Up until now I was sure we had enough about us to achieve what we set out to do, avoid relegation.
    Now I am not so sure.
    We won nothing in the air. We won no second balls. We were a disorganised, demoralised rabble who chucked the towel in.
    It felt like a watershed moment.
    Too depressing for words

    that is likely to be to late to help to keep us up.

    Never liked Gary Oldman anyway, overrated Eastenders type, who got lucky somehow, and who the fucks Daniel Day Lewis? Sounds like a 18th century American poet ffs

    Not a fan of knighthoods like me Gribbo ?

    Gary Oldman (New Cross born) may have said he was a Man United fan but was definitely cheering on Millwall yesterday next to his method acting buddy Daniel Day-Lewis who is the son of Cecil Day-Lewis the Anglo Irish UK poet laureate from 1968-72.
    So you were only a couple of hundred years out and CD-L wasn't a yank !

    Daniel Day-Lewis first went down the Den when he wanted to study a certain type of Neanderthal for when he played Bill"the butcher" Cutting in 'gangs of New York' (2002)
    Daniel feels he has found his tribe when he goes down the Den. 

    Not a lot of people know this.
    Both looked like a right couple of tramps yesterday. I presumed they were getting into character for a new production of Waiting for Godot.
