It means I will probably never get to meet Ava though, and she looked "fun"10

Excellent time to score. Away fans making noise.
Butland hardly touched the ball that half until it was in the net0 -
So was it an OG or a brilliant volley from Purrington?
Happy with a goal but would like to know who scored it 😂0 -
Not quite sure how we have managed to come off level at half time. Up until the move for the goal we had been absolutely dreadful. Pearce is an accident waiting to happen again.0
-
How we are drawing this game I don’t know.
Great goal and what a ball into the box from Green!
Williams got fouled/pushed and I was initially screaming for a penalty until a brilliant finish from Purrington meant I was screaming for a goal 😂
Must do a lot better second half, but we are now firmly in this game and Bowyer can get a few important bits of information across.
Keep it tight first 15 minutes and we build.3 -
Yeah what a shit manager that Bowyer is.....golfaddick said:
No. And I said before the game that the line up was too defensive. I dont know how managers get coaching badges......perhaps they give them out in party bags.Chunes said:Do we really need three defensive midfielders in the same 11?15 -
Were we this bad before the injuries? I know we gave away a lot of possession, but when we did have the ball we moved it quiet well.
So far this has been some of the poorest football I've seen under Bowyer. Apart from a moment of class from Cullen and Green, it has not been pretty.
However, still in the game and that's all that matters at the moment.0 -
HT: It's a Ben Purrington effort that sees the score level at half-time.0

Good time to score.1

We still need to change the formation, obv
Davis walking a tightrope. Many different options.
I'd like to believe Purrington can put away a flying volley but looks like their guy did instead. Still, what a burst of pace and cross from Green, who looks like an amazing signing2 -

I'll take that, very much against the run of play , but nice goal , reminiscent of his one in the playoff final.1

Hopefully the timing of our goal will demoralise Stoke3

Similar to the one against Blackburn too?Horsfield9 said:I'll take that, very much against the run of play , but nice goal , reminiscent of his one in the playoff final.0 -
Sorry mate, I should’ve thought beforehand! Only because our record just after half time is horrific, I’m hoping it’s different this timeross1 said:

Big cat pounces again. Bless his heart. Let's hope we can nick another goal second half and steal some points

Three goals in Charlton red for Purrington now or is it four?
Must surely be one of our highest scoring Full-Backs since I've been attending? - Certainly in terms of goals to games
Yet he doesnt get beyond the halfway line is many an argument I've seen1 -
I actually thought Cullen had taken the wrong option with his return ball to Green but my god, that man is rapid8

I'm not sure if other teams figured us out, but it definitely felt like we were getting on the ball A LOT more in the first half of the season.FishCostaFortune said:Were we this bad before the injuries? I know we gave away a lot of possession, but when we did have the ball we moved it quiet well.

It's not just the injuries, although that obviously had an big impact on performance as well.

Not Purrington; a spectacular OG.0

Shape was all wrong to start with. Appalling defending for their goal. Passing has been terrible for the most part. Crossing even worse (where did this myth Matthews can cross a ball come from). But one bit of quality (great cross from Green - that’s how it’s done) and we’re bang in the game.
Bowyer needs to find at tactical master stroke at half time. But if it finishes like this I’ll take that all day long.1 -

Garbage 1st half, would have been happy with 1-0. Down there with Wigan and Derby for poor away performances, a collective rubbish team effort.
But we have a lifeline now, Bowyer needs to sort it out, as we can get something now0 -
Grateful if anyone watching can say for definite what formation we are playing.0

Depends how long you've been going. I remember Mark Reid taking four penalties in one match! (one re-take)ForeverAddickted said:Three goals in Charlton red for Purrington now or is it four?
