Lockwood up front again by the looks of it... hmm

Nice to see us start so aggressively

It worked but why was Whitehouse behind her line then?

Playing quite well from the little i've seen so far.

Not only is that our best 45 minutes so far it was entertaining too!

Good half. This is a very WSL2 game. Do it again, get a point on the board

We’re doing better than we did against them both games last season though (minus the early Bradley goal) which is a positive

So unlucky not to score from the second phase of that corner, ball just went through Skeels’
legs 

fenaddick

So frustrating to concede like that, especially after the wasted counter from us

LenGlover

Bloody annoying! Come on Charlton get an equaliser 

Garrymanilow

Well that is frustrating

A very frustrating afternoon. We played well and actually created some decent opportunities. Lockwood had her best game I can remember but wasting that counter attack was the turning point, especially with Birmingham scoring straight after. Taking EvE off was a mistake as we lost any semblence of control in the midfield, Flannery tried her best but was partnered by a striker that Hills is determined to convert into a midfielder a la Joelinton. N'Dow having to come off was concerning.

A word to for the ref, determined to give every possible decision to the home side, including ignroing one of their players controlling the ball with their hand.

The most frustrating thing was that we could easily have got a point or three today and instead we're now six points below those above us

If we can’t get a point v them, who can we get one against?

Think we are going to see an all time lowest points total ever, but how low is the question.

Surely not nil points?

No idea how many games you’ve watched Damo so you may disagree but our performances are definitely improving and I can see a result coming. Chelsea is a write off but Palace after that kicks off a run of three winnable games with West Ham and Villa to follow. Even Spurs after that are beatable. We obviously won’t win all of those but I think we could get between 3 and 7 points there.  Get a striker in/if Boama is fit and good in January then we could pick up more points regularly. The problem at the moment is we have no one capable of playing up front while being a goal threat.

Any chance of score?
