  • So do I need to move Harriot and Fox off my "Crap" list and move them to "Great"? FFS I'm going to have to stop trying to keep up.
  • Great fun on the stream - they have just shown our goal from every different camera...

    Very good half, Cousins and Coquelin look great. Feel with all the pressing though they will score at some point with the talent they have so I think we need another.

    exactly how I see it. Johan needs to get into the game. Wilson looked uncomfortable on his left foot when in good positions. But generally very impressive.

    Surprised Chris Solly got the armband ahead of Ben haik. Says great things about Chris, but Bob seems to have the hump with Tal, you feel.

    Wilson really was ball watching when that chance came his way, really should be 2-0 up.

    There was an excellent cross field pass from Gudmundsson to Cousins in build up to goal. A really sweet strike from Harriotts. Looks better and more dangerous in a more central position. Charlton supporters enjoyed the goal with great celebrations in the away end.

    Solly gets the armband every time JJ is subbed. No conspiracy against TBH
  • Comfortable performance in the first half. If only Wilson had a left foot it would have been 2-0. Fox has been outstanding. Need to keep that level going in the second half now.
  • Solly has always taken the armband when JJ has been subbed - think it goes back to beginning of the season.
  • Last time out at home Forest came from behind to win 2-1 against Norwich I think, I have a feeling that this is going to be a very very tough second half ...

    Would like to see Johan make a real statement in the second half.
  • Just watching the goal on a loop on the stream, great pass by JoBerg, incredible first touch on the run with his weaker foot by Cousins, and then another piece of decisive play from Harriott. He gets a slice of luck with deflection but the team earns that with the quality of the build up.

    Nice work from Harriott in the build up to the Igor/Wilson chance too. Think he's really growing into this more central role and become a bit of a focal point for our attacks, let's hope he can keep up once other teams are aware that's his role now. Really fancied him to score today, wish I'd put some money on it now.

    Worried that Forest will improve in the second half though, a second goal early in the half would be ideal to try and quash the rebellion.

    For the last 5 mins of the half, we seemed to be sitting back, allowing them to come at us. I just hope we don't continue that into the second half, as this lot are definately for the taking.......
  • We need to take a two goal lead for only the second time this season or risk another draw. Go for it lads.

    One thing I would do is try to get Cousins back on the left.

    Yes, we do need the 2nd. Don't sit back until we get that. An early goal in the 2nd half would be perfect.

    Easy second half for us.

    Not in our DNA to just sit back, giving up lots of possession trying to defend a lead.
  • Lots of people calling Pope a youth product. He's not, we got him from Bury Town. Sorry to be pedantic but it's like calling Jermaine Defoe a West Ham youth product.

    We have form for sitting on a lead and inviting pressure. Fear more of the same and squeaky bum time again.

    Good first half, well deserved lead. Thought Solly was outstanding; commentator kept raving about Antonio, but he ended up having to switch sides. Super 270 spin from Harriott after the goal. Good performance all round, just a little worried that Wilson's not quite up to speed, but everyone else is playing well.
