Really enjoyed that
Conceded a typical sloppy goal like we have all season. The difference this time being we had a nice 3 goal cushion so didn't let them back into the game, which we would have done under Robinson.
Keep it going boys!2 -
That replacement ref was shocking.
Aribo was quality, Ajose great, Reeves tasty and the CB’s immense.
Well done again the boys. That steam train is gathering speed.

Great result and after a slow start got into the game...when are we going to learn to cheat more often, dive elbow and roll over like the opposition do. Special praise for the two refs who seemed to be in tandem to be the worst we have seen this season after busby's performance against Plymouth, didn't think that was possible.5

Never in doubt nice and patient at first when it wasn’t quite clicking , didn’t panic the fans didn’t groan and moan about miss placed passes then a brilliant goal from Zyro proper strikers finish
From there I honestly had no doubt we would win , the quality players took over and the finishing from Aribo was beautiful
3 nil job was done silly goal to have conceded but still wasn’t worried
This is a different Charlton we are on a run that will see us promoted I am certain of that
Shame Robbo didn’t go five or six games earlier as it would have made it interesting15 -
Don’t underestimate how crucial a role Ajose played today. He was drawing their defenders all over the place. Then tracking back and getting into defence - surprised he lasted past an hour. I really hope he gets a goal soon cos he deserves it; he’s playing confidently enough.
Fantastic win as Rotherham weren’t that bad. What a difference a couple of weeks make. Can win play offs on this form but need to avoid injuries - hope Tariqe’s is just a knock. We did well without him and Reeves looks a different player now. Looking forward with the rose tinteds off now.30 -

More than happy to take a big slice of humble pie over this because I originally disagreed with the sentiment. Just shows how desperately inept Robinson was (is) and how utterly demotivating and morale sapping it must have been to work for such a chancer.Laddick01 said:Said it since the start of the season, in terms of quality we have as much as any of the top 3, and the depth.
Playoffs should’ve been the minimum with these players and it certainly looks like that’s how it’s going to go.6 -
Further to Mr Bowyers promotion, am I allowed to suggest we may be embracing, what I believe to be called, the Sasa Ilic effect....4

We've got a tough run in but we can make the play offs. It would be great if a few of the stay aways helped us by boosting the numbers.3

After a shaky start we start to show our superior footballing ability, especially in the 2nd half. Amos was exceptional today in claiming dangerous crosses. Feel very sorry for Dijksteel as he was better in the last 2 games than Konsa was today imo15

The boys have turned into men and the men have turned into a team that enjoy playing football. I now believe we are at last watching professional football. Onwards and upwards!6

Absolutely quality.
Love the way Bowyer doesn't milk it at the end of the game. Claps the fans and down the tunnel - he looks a man on a mission. None of that Robbo bollocks. Love it.40 -
Who cares about Robinson. He's gone, never to be remembered. Bowyer has let the hand-brake off - cmon you reds. !AddicksAddict said:

Pearce MOTM today... Absolutely quality!! - Bossed Smith, was sensible enough to get away from what could have been handbags, lead the line brilliantly and pushed players forward
Rotherham have signs of a good side, Zyro barely got near any headers and could be troublesome in the Play-Offs
Referees were shocking today, how could they find a foul against us after initially giving a penalty for handball - Said early on that any Yellow Cards would be given to Charlton players today, and that was exactly the case... How the hell Rotherham got away without any bookings themselves was just a joke!!28 -
It's a measure of how far we've come in the past couple of weeks that my heart sank when I heard they'd scored. A couple of weeks ago I'd have hardly cared. A mix of Bowyer working wonders with the first team and the hope that we'll soon be rid of Two Shats has made me feel Charlton again.Ross said:Conceded a goal.
Bowyer out.7 -

Bowyer was a winner as a player and it looks like he's taking that attitude into management. A friend of mine was saying KR bogged the players down with stats and information before games, maybe restricting them.
We look dangerous everytime we go forward and we are gathering real momentum. Good job Lee!8 -
That shoulder control from Aribo is unearthly12
-
The midfield looks so good at the moment - hasn’t looked this dominant in years
Pearce is a colossus alongside Bauer - they work so well together
JDS looked like he’d never been away
Reeves is starting to show what he’s about. Covers lots of ground and plays like a terrier. Not lacking in skill and a good eye for a pass and a goal. Could turn out to be a fine acquisition
Aribo though - that 3rd was superb. Difficult ball to control, it bounced up again but still he smashed it in off the bar with a defender in attendance. Great stuff and fair play to him. Really becoming a big part of this team.
Loved it today. Good goals, pretty dominant and the defence looked good. Despite conceding I didn’t feel we were going to concede more.
Only low point for me was Mavididi who looked like he didn’t want to sprint. Hopefully he was told to ease himself into it rather than go balls-to-the-wall from the getgo.10 -
The way Aribo controls first with his shoulder, then his head, then his foot, then shoot - immense goal.14

You should have seen the ref at Sutton v Bromley, think yourselves lucky... Another great result for the Addicks, Lee Bowyer, who would have thought it eh?robroy said:That replacement ref was shocking.

PWR.
Gotta keep this quick because of work. Had to pause the game to take a 7:30am work call.
Our worst performance under Bowyer. Rotherham came and pressed us and were physical, two things we've struggled against this year. Won 3-1.
Jay DaSilva really is something special.
JFC was absolute mustard in that holding role yet again. Always felt his aerial ability was underrated and how many headers did he win? It was his toe poke that kept it alive in the build up to the third. And his set piece delivery is ace.
Remember when we waited all summer to get Ben Reeves, and then that seemed a silly decision? It doesn't seem silly now, it seems wise. He was everywhere once again today. It was him winning the foul that lead to the second, and him winning the ball on the edge of his own box for the third.
Zyro was absolutely in the wars today, as was Ajose. They both work so hard. And it was because of that work that they pounced on a mistake, and that Zyro provided a moment of class. Mention for Ajose who I believe had two assists and once again worked incredibly hard and created space for others.
Joe Aribo. When he gets going he really is something special. His ability to find space in the box is so important. I thought he was having an alright game to that point, too ponderous on the ball at times and caught out position. But he has that ability to make something special happen. And the second, woof.
Lastly, a great performance from Amos. Came out and claimed everything.
Hope Fosu is alright and it's not too bad. Ditto Page. But, for once, we have the squad depth to provide cover. Kaiaki worked really hard today and was good at times.
Back in the playoffs spots. Our goal now should be to never let them go again.21 -
That's more like it!. What a goal by Aribo. Pearce is a warrior. Reeves looks a different player. Robinson you Scouse gobshite twat,we'd be up there with Blackburn and Wigan if it wasn't for you.1
