    End the season now 

    Okay this is weird... when I checked the table at HT, it showed us already with 42 points. On BBC and Sky. Do they update the table DURING matches based on the scores? They never do that in sports here. I kept looking at the table and thinking... the match is not over, how are we in 19th?

    It's an 'As it Stands' table. Updated in real time.

    Yes @NapaAddick. During the match they show the "As it stands" table reflecting the play taking place.
    Well that is incredibly stressful! 😂

    Top result, good performance. The players wanted that, didn't they.

    Woof, I feel dreadful now. Haven’t agonised over every single minute like that in a long time. My heart still won’t stop going. We won’t play anyone as bad as Hull again but it sounds like we played quite well. Built some decent chances and defended solidly, which is exactly the kind is performance that keeps you up. Hopefully as the season goes on we’ll come up against teams who aren’t that bothered and we can take 3 points off them. 

    8 points from 8 games now would see us at 50 points. In a normal season that would probably be enough, but we’ll probably want 2 or 3 more than that. Hopefully QPR aren’t bothered anymore and we can get another 3 next match and jumpstart our run in. Just hope the Barnsley result hasn’t stung them

    Hull were terrible. Deserved win but wish we wouldn't concede possession so easily towards the end of games.

    Shame Luton and Barnsley picked up points.. hopefully Huddersfield, Hull and Middlesbrough won't pick up any more!
    Just looked at Hull's fixture list - horrible.

    What with Barnsley sparking into life and Luton grabbing a late late equaliser to build their belief, Hull could soon find themselves cemented into the bottom 3.

    Charlton ...... one game at a time. If we pick up regular points we'll be safe.
    It's in our own hands.

    Massive result for your lot today. Another win and a draw, or even two or three draws and I reckon you’re safe. Bar Barnsley, all the teams below you are dire and won’t pick up much between now and the end of the season. 
    Not a massive fan of Bowyer, but if he keeps you up this season, after all he’s had to endure off the pitch, then fair play to him. Huge achievement. It’ll make a good book one day. 
    Look forward to locking horns on the 3rd of July. Although there probably won’t be much riding on it, just bragging rights (and the charity bets I had with a few on here). 
    Here’s just praying that lot in claret and blue join us down here next season.
     All the best lads 

    Looking forward to it ... and you just know we will win because we can’t be there. 
    Crazy talk. Let’s not get too hasty.

    Add to today’s performance, green , Lapslie & JFC and we have a solid Team there! 

    Was a shame Aneke came on and only managed a flash of excitement other than being a little slow , but hopefully he’ll improve!
    morgan was pinging balls and doing the cute passes needed to unlock the defence - think he may be very influential.

    who will be this years Poyet!?

    Chris Kamara called it the "perfect away performance"

    Many fans doubted Bowyer's team selection but it worked.

    Huge, huge win for the points and for the confidence.

    One down, eight to go.

    Bowyer masterclass... 

    if that second goal had gone in from that champagne football of a move their heads would have dropped... instead they huffed and puffed but no real danger.... 

    Beat or draw against QPR and we will start to believe... Hemed needs a goal now... Mcgready looked great... 

    Overall really decent 
  • Refresh...wait 2 secs...refresh...2 seconds...refresh...and repeat for 75 minutes.

    I'd forgotten how stressful it can be following a game! Unbelievable result though.

    Stress levels have shot right down as soon as the final whilst went. I maybe surprisingly young compared to what many thought on here, but my heart isn’t, so something like today is no good for me.

    So relieved now.

    Tactically spot on. Very solid defensively, Morgan was a joy and a surprise, what a young player he is. We certainly created the better of the chances and now the table looks so much better. We have to follow this up with a win next Saturday, but wow, massive well done to everyone involved.

    That one was for you, Seb.

    Either that or stripy nigels get dragged down somehow. I wouldn't say 2 wins would be enough I reckon 51 points total so 9 points from a possible 24 in our remaining games should see us home and hosed.

    Well, for your sake, let's hope it doesn't.  :smile:

    Tempting as it is to echo the "Lyle who?" comments, if he had been up front today that could have been a two or three nil win and the goal difference would look much healthier.

    But as the saying goes, it is what it is, Bowyer can only play the cards he's got not the ones he wishes for and in that context played a blinder. Even more importantly all the off the pitch nonsense doesn't seem to have caused much in the way of distraction or demotivation as the Charlton squad certainly looked like having more belief and passion than a very pedestrian looking Hull.

    Well how good was that!! We could, and should, have won by more, we created some excellent chances. Can only remember Dillion making 2 saves of note, 1 in each half. Every player 'stepped up' and I cant fault anyone of them!! There seems a new 'unity' among them and If we can build on this, then I believe we will stay up....next week is another huge game.....3 more points and another 'together' performance will be on the menu I believe!!

    Convinced we were going to concede in injury time, injury time.

    That was a major team performance. Hemed looked as good as he ever has for us.

    Proper Captain in Pearce ( you watching Solly, you pansy).

    Also Lyle who? 

    Teams better without them both on that performance.

    What can you say other than massive win. Will instill confidence which in a relegation battle is priceless. Worry about where enough goals are coming from.

    Absolutely MASSIVE! 6-0 and 3-0 drubbing in the friendlies? As most people have said, didn't mean a thing.

    Almost forgot what it felt like to get excited over a win! Enjoy your weekend everyone!

    So sorry to hear about your mum @NapaAddick. An awful situation but huge virtual hugs coming your way, I'm sure, from all the Addicks family.
    Indeed, thoughts with you @NapaAddick

    Hemed, Morgan, Cullen, Matthews all very good. Only slight disappointments Bonne and Oshilaja. 
    I thought Deji had a great game.
