    Would like Rotherham to win their four games in hand  :)
    Don't think they'll win tonight, 0-3 v Watford 
  • Need a change on the left side. Maatsen and Millar costing us goals with poor play. Get Deji playing left back and push Maatsen forward where his mistakes are further away from goal and less likely to be disasterous.
    So replace one shit defender with another shit defender, playing on the wrong side. That'll work. 
    Got any better ideas?


    Play Purrington would be a start.

    For tonight play 3 at the back. 
    Purrington - excellent idea if he was on the bench.

    Three (five) at the back is way too negative for this fanbase in their current mood.
    I know Purrington is not on the bench. I was saying that he should have been selected instead of Maatsen, who is a poor defender.

    3-5-2 does not have to be negative, quite the opposite. Surely you play the system that suits the players that you have and gives you the best chance of winning. Gunter is poor at right back but would be fine in a three with Famewo and Pearce. Replace Maatsen with Watson, who would play at the centre, with Albie on the right of him and JFC to the left. Keep Millar to the wide left and have Shinnie or DJ on the right.
    Replace Stockley with Chuks and away you go. 
    Millar and Shinnie or DJ as wing backs? Remember when Smyth played there...
  • Another near post one cleared, comes back to Gunter, who tries to play to Shinnie, but he can't keep it in.
  • Goodness, stop the near post corner please!
  • Love that from Brownie  re corners !!
  • Corners have been proper cack
  • we really dont have anyone who can take a decent corner
    Shinnie was taking some good corners

    Steve Brown is brilliant talking about corners
  • Stop hitting the first man with the corner Shinnie!

    This has been happening for weeks!!

  • Maatsen apparently handles near the centre circle and Rovers have a free kick.
  • They send the ball forward, good hussling from Albie means their player messes up the cross and it goes out for a goal kick.
  • JFC is Pratley, Watson and Cullen rolled into one
  • Stop getting caught offside Washington!!!
  • 53'

    Offside, Charlton Athletic. Jake Forster-Caskey tries a through ball, but Conor Washington is caught offside.

  • Not sure what Millar brings to the party
  • Happy to take the pisstakes if the following comment doesn’t wear well

    We will win this
  • Rovers on the attack and Shinnie goes down in the corner, claiming a freekick but the ref is unimpressed. It's a bit worrying in our area for a bit but eventually we clear upfield and Washington is JUST offside, else he'd have been well away
  • JFC is by so far the best player on the pitch.

    That type of offside is a bit more acceptable for me as Conor has to gamble... Was a lovely pass from JFC

  • Gunter is now embarrassing. 

    JFC is good.

    Stockley offering nothing.

    Oh for the days of Kinsella dinking in a near post corner for the Brown flick on routine.

    That must make him about 35 stone

    A sending off, a booking and a decent player in one ?
  • Washington would go far with a bit more pace 
    1. 54'

      Post update

      Jayden Stockley (Charlton Athletic) wins a free kick in the attacking half.

    2. 54'

      Post update

      Foul by Alfie Kilgour (Bristol Rovers).

  • Stockley wins us another free kick about 10 yards out to the left. JFC takes but it's headed away for a corner
  • 54' | A flighted set-piece launched into the Rovers area is headed behind by George Williams. From the resulting corner, the hosts give away a free-kick, allowing Rovers to clear. #CAFC 2-2 #BRFC

    An ironclad loan agreement?
  • Shinnie sends it far post, JFC looks to head goalwards, but Famewo's behind him fouling Leahy so Rovers have a free kick.
