Josh goes down, and is clearly in agony. While he's on the floor the North immediately chime up with a massive chance of Tony Watt-Watt-Watt, sorry but to me that was awkward, it's the sort of thing crowds sing when someone unpopular is on the pitch, that the crowd want replaced, not the best player for us this season.iamdan said:I was in the North Ups, pretty sure there was a 3/4 min period we sang about Josh Mag, and even when he reappeared with his protective boot on - he got a song.
As for TW, he's a crowd favourite, just encouraging him - next time we should stay silent.
Once Watt comes on, then yes of course the big welcome is great.

I never said he had delivered.masicat said:
He hasn't delivered. His reputation is based on scoring a goal against Barcelona for Celtic. The man is thick. One of life's privileged few with everything but a brain. Couldn't lace big Josh's boots.ricky_otto said:
Our chances of winning that game went out the window when the referee decided he wasn't going to let us score a goal.East_Stand_Loopy said:I was embarrassed to be a Charlton fan yesterday...
To sing about TW as soon as Josh went down, was utterly disrespectful. I mean, he's had such a sh*t season for us, hasn't he?
I make no bones about this, our chances of winning that game pretty much went out of the window when he went down.
I am nearly 60, with bad knees, and I think I could beat TW in a race to catch a bus. But probably not to the bar.
I don't think TW could out run his nose...
He is a "professional athlete". I can't argue with "professional", because he is paid, but calling him "athlete" is abusing the term.
And, then I see on the player score thread that some have marked him with a higher score than Crofts...
Watt certainly divides opinion, whilst I'm not totally convinced by him, he's the sort of player than can change a game within the blink of an eye. The sort of player than get me fans out of their seat. If he delivers or not remains to be seen - there is something about him,but he needs to get his head right.
What I meant was, he is capable of a moment of magic. As soon as he came on, he produced a bit of skill that took there defender out of the game. His performances against Huddersfield and Forest when he first arrived were superb.
He shows it in very small doses. He probably never will be the sort of player that he should be. He needs to find a permanent home and get his head down. Should that be with us? - probably not.

Scouse rhyming slang? I'd say for 'bath' but not sure they've got them up thereJamesSeed said:

He has done more for Charlton this season than TW has in his 3 at the club...0 -
I think the real question is whether big Josh took offense - I'm sure he didn't. Teh crowd sang his name and he knows what we all think of him. It isn't for others to take offence for him.17

Someone tell him what the current year is!ForeverAddickted said:
Eh were are we getting 22 years ago?
1996 - 2016 = 20 years
If were still in the same Division next season we'll play the first game prior to December if we win that then we've won a game in 2017 keeping it at 20-years, if we dont THEN it goes to 21-years!!1 -
Watt must produce and quickly, he must be aware of that. I'm sure his failure at Hearts will have come as a shock to him. If we can get him fit and if he continues to show the effort he displayed yesterday, we'd have a great player on our hands. This is a frustrating team ATM. So much talent and potential, but it's just not gelling. Konsa and Aribo are a season short of being our best midfield paring since Parker/Jensen, they are that good, or rather they will be. The time they have on the ball, their touch, is sublime at times. They lack consistency and experience, hardly surprising!
Get some luck with injuries and a few consecutive wins and we could storm into the playoffs. But it could just as easily go the other way, and probably will.2 -
Better atmosphere with more fans.
We weren't terrible against Millwall, for once
Rudd good
Defence solid enough. Solly stepped up. Page looked OK. Chicken did well. Centre backs dominated their forwards despite a few swing and miss gaffes and us getting away with a few free headers for them.
Aribo and Konsa Ok. Crofts' experience showed- and we needed it.
Not too sure about Da Silva. Byrne faded.
Gutted about big Josh. Hope he is OK. Watt was never gonna be able to give it enough, given his fitness levels.
Ref shocking from start (retaken kick off) to finish (tex Red)
----
Am a bit sceptical about Bauer's injury at the final whistle. Transfer target?
Seeing one CB getting sent off and the other r d carded plus main striker stretchered off does. Or bode well for what comes next.
There are some good ingredients available, but the cake is far from baked.
Can we pull it all together by the end of the season?0 -
Must give a shout to Konsa and Aribo for their performance yesterday - many youngsters might have wilted against the high tempo aggressive approach favoured by Millwall (and they play any other way?) but they didn't and really demonstrated their backbone.9

Very disappointed with Tex throwing a football at Morison.
Should have been something heavier.11 -
I did have to laugh at how KR's pre match press conference was shown with sub-titles on the screen before the game.5
-
I think Morison showed his true colours in that incident.
He fouls Texeira, moans at him and then Tex throws the ball at him.
Morison then goes to the ref and when the red card is produced he twice waves Tex off. He then offers his hand to for Tex to shake.
I'm all for battles on the pitch and two players going at each other for 90 minutes but to act in that way at the end of a game shows a real lack of class.23 -
There's is a third option, (c) Slade.ricky_otto said:
I'd be a bit concerned if he put a team out to lose.cafcnick1992 said:Very unfair summary. Robinson put out a side to win. Two injuries is plain bad luck.

and Johnson is fit. Lennon any day.Clem_Snide said:

We may be stuck with a choice between Lennon & Johnson - oh, dear!Redrobo said:If Tex and BFG can't play next week, then Johnson and Konsa it is. Not the best team to be playing with a new defence, but that's football.
Lennon could start at LB as well if Page sidelined. Robbo has not had the best of luck so far.2 -

Poor refereeing, unfortunate with injuries and had a perfectly good goal disallowed. However, didn't do anything like enough to win and Millwall always looked more likely to get the three points.
"Our sole aim is to be fighting for promotion next season and or top priority is to put together a squad that can help Charlton Athletic get back into the Championship." Quote Katrien Meire, 19 April 2016.
We haven't looked like promotion challengers all season. Our starting eleven yesterday featured 6 players with less than half a season of professional football under their belts, significantly less than that in several cases. I love seeing players graduate from the academy, but graduating and just being chucked because you don't have any other players are two very different things. This is not even close to a promotion-challenging squad, and the business we've done so far in the transfer window suggests that there isn't actually any real appetite to push for promotion this season.
Two wins in 9 for Robinson. I don't like him, but ultimately he's just joined the long list of predecessors who have demonstrated that the face in the dugout is irrelevant if the resources available are insufficient.
Very impressed with Konsa yesterday. I look forward to watching his continued development over the next 5 months, prior to his summer transfer to Burnley/QPR/Reading (delete as appropriate).
Thoroughly depressed. Belgians out.23 -
It's like the way they shot Gandalf and Frodo on the cart at the start of The Fellowship of the Ring, with Frodo a long way back so he looked small. Only there's no special effects here, he really is hobbit sized.jams said:Having not been there yesterday no ones exaggerating about da silva being small...

I presume Texiera sorry, and RJ won't apologise for something that he is not sorry about.Henry Irving said:Thought we did OK and no doubt the players were up for it.
Thought spanners had the better chances although it seems we had a good goal disallowed.
Scum looked like a settled team who knew where to find a colleague but not brilliant. Tex and Bauer had a tough afternoon and their strikers got in behind a few times. Rudd is a good sweeper keeper.
No surprise that we looked disjointed with three debuts, Josh injured and Watt playing a role he's not suited for. Aribo and Konsa had a game to learn from.
Tex was stupid but he's apologised. Take note Roger Johnson.
Ref was all over the place. I thought the foul on Rudd was worth a red. He kicked out when the ball was in the keepers hand.
Another game without beating them but we didn't lose.
We still look a long way off a top six side but Watt, Holmes and Rudd back is positive. Losing Magennis is a blow. I like Novak and Umerah but not sure either brings the same to the side.
Like Desilva, not as impressed with Byrne but way too early to judge.0 -
No Charlton player within a yard of their keeper. That's hard to take.Charlton_Stu said:2 -

Kin hell, CAFC official what is the point of posting yet more footage of a no goal??? Move on - they ain't gonna change the result. This strikes of desperation to get the fans on side. The bottom line line is the result was 0-0 and still is a day later 0-0. Tomorrow we will have manager moaning again.... I'd be more concerned at players getting sent off after being royally wound up and unfit players thrown into the game too soon # too easy.4
