    A bit ponderous when we drive forward allowing Cheltenham to get some last ditch tackles in. Did like that first time ball forward from Chalobah though. Simple but intelligent pass

    Been a horrific 10 mins from CC in the middle.

    We’re not imposing our purpleness on them yet.

    Goes straight to penalties after 90 minutes if game ends up a draw.
    Could be good practice for the playoff final.

    Kenneth Williams rating: not worth the effort.

    Well I for one am glad that I now know the entire managerial history of Cheltenham

    Looking quite organised, confident and up-for it.

    Charlton on the other hand.....

    Is he giving us a bit of a ‘Char-el-lton’?

    To be fair he’s done his homework. You can’t knock it.

    Carey currently doing a very good job of being wherever the ball isn't. Fortunately TC basically chased him down to give him the ball there

    Everytime the commentator says Nurse, I think he is having an episode.

    We need to sign a player called Nurse, because so far it has made me laugh every time he has said it.

    Jesus, this commentator is Grandpa Simpson levels of meandering pointless story

    Good run and ball from Campbell, but ball just ahead of Godden in the box

    Couple of good bursts through the middle from Carey, just holds onto the ball for a split second too long

    Thanks FA.   Was buffering too much during the first 10-15, and was about to give up, but seems to have settled down.     Fingers crossed.

    Or he’s just read a Zack Polanski tweet

    Surprised that wasn't a foul on Coventry on the edge of their area

    Chalobah is some player, just hope he can stay fit.
