Plymouth are a good side that are well organised and know what they are doing. Honest and hard working and very good support. Respect to their fans.
To me they lack any real flair, although I thought their number 10 was a good player. Overall I think they are punching above their weight. I will be very disappointed if we finish below them.
Not sure they were prepared for the post-KR tactical switch. If they watched the video of us v Fleetwood they would have expected to simply turn up and swamp our slow tippy tappy sideways style of play. After all it what most of us expected to happen if we were honest.
Good job Bowyer had the tactical nous having seen Plymouth to negate their strengths but it is the basic role of any half decent coach.
I do hope we haven't cost the Plymouth fans a lot of money in lost bets given our initial responses to this thread. And a special word for James Seed who pushed the wrong button on his app and mistakenly bet on us to win!
I thought their fans were scummy. Booed twice when our team was read out (at 2.30pm & again at the start) - who does that ?? I understand booing an ex-player or even the jokey "who ?" when an oncoming sub is announced, but booing all 11 opposition players ???? wtf ??? Really glad we won.

Scummy for booing the oppo team , you obviously never been at a Charlton v millwall fixture in the wrong place , Surely you’ve been to games where you’ve booed the opposition team , I mean it’s hardly offensive and deserving of being called scum , weird

They seemed friendly enough to me - the worst chant they could manage was 'your ground's too big for you' and at the moment at least, we couldn't do them under the trade description act for that one.

They are a proper football club, with proper fans. Old style.
@Pafc you gonna come back and give us your view of the game
Fans on here lied to him, said Plymouth could look forward to an easy 3 points, suckered 3,000 of their fans to buy a ticket because they thought they were going to see their team win and you expect him to come back on here ?

Lied, this time last week I didn't think we'd win another game this season.
I wouldn't say we lied, we did believe what we were saying at the time . It is one of the strange things about football how a managerial change can have such an impact. I think the news that the takeover is close helped make everybody a bit more positive too!
Went to their place for the away game. Nice bunch, good ground.
Hope we get them in the playoffs though!
Been supporting Charlton since 1976 & have been to plenty of games thanks, home & away. (probably done the 92 but teams drop in & out of the leagues). Can't ever remember EVERY player being booed as their name has been read out - and I've been to the Den (New & Old) as well as The Gills, Leeds (was at St Andrews in 1988) Palace & Wimbledon (again, new & old).
Am hearing our new owners will be in place before Saturday. Guardiola will be in as boss, with Song and Nazri in on free transfers. Free tickets for all home supporters meaning a full house and away fans will be subjected to full rectal examinations before entry.
All pubs in London only selling non alcoholic drinks and playing Sound of Music on a loop in their Dukeboxes due to some new European regulation.
If I was you I would save yourself the journey.
Love it when my predictions come true and this time I got it pretty much bang on.
A few of their wannabes in dodgy aquascutum & Burberry were trying their best to get a reaction after the game, corner of floyd by the chip shop, just got laughed at and told to jog on.

Ok, maybe not "scummy" but certainly wtf ???
If it was a Derby or there was some history between us i could understand but i thought it a bit odd.

Plymouth like any club have a few helms and when you bring 3k there’s gonna be more than if they’d taken 300 . Obviously they’re on a great run but those numbers are beyond impressive when you consider how far they have travelled (most from London of course ) we don’t always get them numbers (when available) for London fixtures ! FairPlay proper away numbers, we can but dream
I’d posted a full analysis of the game but it seems to have got lost! I’ll do it again once I’m slightly less hungover. Long story short you were good value for 3 points!
Always said that they can be a massive Club. They have the largest catchment area of any team in the Country and can always turn out in numbers. Much like the D&C Rugby side.
Went to an FA Cup 5th round tie to see them play Arsenal at Highbury in the '80s. Got through the turnstiles and couldn't get any further there were so many of them in the ground. Listened to the game rather than watched any of it.
The twat that launched something (looked much larger than a coin) 30 yards from the corner of the stand at Fosu near the end certainly didn’t come in peace.

Anyone else see that?
Didn't see that but a little bunch came along the Woolwich road to the bus stop at the bottom of Charlton lane. A 61 year old me and the 15 year olds of the Mottingham posse dealt with it.

Did you go to much football in the 70's and 80's?
Hello little legs getting ready for your comeback
See you at Wimbledon then, being as Bristol is too far for you.
