God knows who will take penalties if it comes to that

Good work from Gilbey to regain possession as HP come forward again

Utter dog shit performance. Tactics seem to be to do nothing but hoof the ball forward and not much else.

Away performances have been shocking for weeks now.

Players are awful, but tactics have been consistently shit as well. Be very interesting to see how Jacko does next season

Nice from Chuks to Lee, but his shot from the edge of the area is blocked.

They've had 18 shots so far to our 6.

Doesn't surprise me. We are shot shy. Always have been.

What do theses c***s do in training fuck all by the looks of it

Lee loses the ball in the centre circle, but Matthews does good work to win us the throw back.

Does this go straight to pens?

killerandflash

Arter was meant to be the other defensive midfielder, but wasn't up to it and having gone back, we have no backup to Dobson now

88' SUB | Juan Castillo comes on for his Charlton debut, replacing Ben Purrington. #pools 2 #cafc 2

Athletico Charlton

Would be a massive injustice if Hartlepool dont win this.  Bloody woeful performance. Cant pass, cant mark, cant tackle. Pathetic

By the looks of what is put out by the club -  headers & volleys and shuttle runs.

They close us down when we are trying to shoot.

It'll never catch on

HP down our left again, but luckily the shot is scuffed.

Hope so, 30 more minutes of this shite would be torture 

Dazzler21

Come on Juan... Or more of you.

aliwibble

Purrington off, Castillo on.

Redhenry

At last, Castillo for Purrington

aliwibble

We get a throw level with the edge of their area, Matthews to go long?
