    Best result of the season - brilliant defensive performance.

    That will hopefully keep us in the division 

    I have one complaint about TC, who should have done much better when he came on to help the defence.

    I was screaming at the TV for that last few minutes

    NJ needs to have a word with him, but that aside, I am happy.
    I would bet TC was told to just hold his position but agree we could have seen a bit more urgency from him on the counter. We’re desperate for a bit of pace upfront sometimes. I’m sure Kelman looked a lot quicker at Orient.

    Need the whole table - we're only 10 points off the play-offs and this was the second of a run of eleven consecutive 1-0 wins.

    Gough has some feature in the game, played like a seasoned pro.
    Has every time he's been given an opportunity to be fair.

    She's no looker, prone to letting you down, but you always have hope she will work out... That's my Charlton.

    I bloody love seeing us above QPR and breathing down the necks of Preston after all the piss taking they did over the summer.

    After Saturday we could be above both of them!

    0-1 seems about fair. 
    It takes Charlton 7 touches in the box to score. If we had tried like Middlesbrough, we would have scored 12!

    Gaining an utterly brilliant away win and potentially helping Millwall grab an automatic promotion spot at the same tine.

    "TC could've done more to help the defence". Look at his heat map, spent more time back defending than he did even near the halfway line ffs

    And breathe … The most beautiful backs to the wall performance you will ever see from a Charlton team, From front to back, every one of them a hero. The biggest hero of them all. Will Mannion. Mate, I hope you keep your place in goal for the rest of the season. You deserve it with the MOTM performance. A 9 point gap between us and 3rd from bottom. Another couple of wins and that’ll do it. Well done, Jonesy. Tottenham away Ole Ole. UP THE ADDICKS

    Heroes one and all. Watching on Sky Middlesbrough who were positively willing Boro to win I never felt any real nerves, our defence were majestic. Coady a hero. Well done lads. Dare we now dream about that second season in The Championship??

    A Curbs-esque masterclass of a smash and grab away win against a team of superior players. What an effort from every single player. Honestly, I think Chambers should have walked but nice to get the better side of a decision for a change. We defended superbly as a team and apart from Mannion's late rush of blood, he played a big part.

    Docherty covered a hell of a lot of ground. Coady superb defensively as well as grabbing the winner. Gough looks a player. Gillesphey defended well, despite a few mistakes and I'll forgive his poor passing. Clarke was very good and put in a shift. Chambers put in a disciplined, intelligent performance. He gave the ball away on occasion but made some excellent incisive passes.

    Leaburn and Kelman put in a shift, though Kelman probably should have scored. Not mathematically safe but surely we will pick up the few points we need to now. Looking forward to an away day at Oxford!

    Hats off to Doc as well. Not been his biggest fan (at this level) but recently he has been class/instrumental. Gives his all.

    Mad. Nobody knows anything. So pleased for the people who went. Nine points off relegation, 10 off the playoffs, what a luxury if we can finish in midtable anonymity.

    Feared the worst when I saw the team. Boro are a very sharp passing team and if you try to beat them they get behind you but they couldn't because of how we played.

    Really all I hope for is total effort. Wow, it was like Rourkes drift at times absolutely proud of them tonight.

    Dominant performance.
    Well we dominated our area.
    Masterclass by Nathan. Perfect away performance with tactics and subs spot on.
    Jones avoid a yellow as well.

    If Jones gets us anywhere near top half he deserves a statue outside the West Stand.
