    Aneke the perfect impact sub. A good goal and that's the best he's been around the pitch since he's come back from injury. 


    Although to be fair, Chuks was pushed into playing his first game back after that long layoff, with only 2 days training.


    Yeah I don't think he's looked fit until today

    He had at least one object thrown at him. No defending that.

    Couldn’t make it to the Valley as I went down with Covid yesterday but watched it on Charlton TV. So glad we’ve got that service for those that just can’t make it to the ground.
    Good to finish our home programme with a win. Two excellent headers with assists courtesy of Albie Morgan, who had one of his best games for us.Big shout out to McG for that double save to stop them taking the lead. As we all know, we never go on to win if we go behind.
    Chuks Aneke is a real enigma. He lacks mobility and that seriously reduces his ability to lead the line but he also has tons of skill and uses that to make things happen. And his goal scoring record off the bench is excellent. Whilst we all would like him to be better able to start games and complete 90 minutes, in truth for that reason we should probably accept that impact sub is his rightful role.
    Let’s finish the season with another win away at Ipswich next week and finish in the top half. Then all we can do is hope that Thomas, Martin, Steve and Jacko do the business on transfers and contracts to give us a much stronger team for next season. They got it badly wrong last year. This time there'll really be no excuses if they cock it up again.

    Can't understand Gilbey being on the pitch and JFC not getting a sniff.
       Felt sorry for Kanu getting all of about 40 seconds on the pitch. 
    Don't know what happened to CBT??  
        Thought it was sad that their keeper was getting booed , don't respect that at all.

    We're you the bloke... Reaction says yes or at least a mate of.

    Seems it was allegedly racist abuse.

    JFC not getting a sniff is a mystery to me. Especially seeing as Gilbey is so poor. As for Kanu, where would have been the harm in giving him 15/20 minutes? I found the booing of their keeper and singing 'he's going to cry in a minute' as moronic as the actual act that caused it in the first place. Are those that did it condoning racist abuse?

    We won.

    In Wales people are often nicknamed after their profession ie Jones the post or Ivor the Engine.

    Now we have Morgan the Assist.

    12th place and top half. Pass the smelling salts.

    The Gipsy Moth has Vocation life and death on draught. 6.5 per cent. 
  • Well if you didn't see the game don't be fooled by the 2-0 scoreline. Against a very limited Shrewsbury team, we were outplayed for much of the first half and MacGillivray was my man of the match with an outstanding double save and a few other top draw saves.

    The defence was once again wide open on occasions and the midfield really struggled to gain any control. All personified by Morgan's complete Jekyll and Hyde performance - some awful dead ball kicks before hitting an absolute pearler of a free kick and corner for our 2 goals.

    And one final moan. Why on earth bring young Kanu on with literally about 30 seconds to go. He could have had a run out for at least 5 minutes at the end as we were coasting by that time.

    Over to you Thomas. You must have seen today that this team is no-where near good enough to put in a challenge for promotion next year. I can only hope you decide to do something about it.

    With a name like that I would have though their ‘keeper would be well up for a scuff.


    *if someone has said something racist then it’s definitely not on and should be dealt with severely.

    Someone in the CE Lower accused by their keeper of throwing something at him, ref stopped the game to talk to the officials and stewards checked CCTV etc. and whilst all that was happening their keeper, captain and a couple of other players weren't helping the cause by coming and having words with fans and pointing at a few individuals. Couldn't see if anyone actually got hauled out for it, but once the game finally resumed we scored the second to put it to bed anyway
    The keeper stopped the game by coming out of his goal once the play stopped and had a chat with the ref about what was going on. Doubt he would’ve done that if he had thrown something at the fans in the crowd.

    Now we understand from the post match that he was being racially abused. Person responsible should be banned for life.

    He picked at least one object off the ground in the six yard box and tossed it into the back of his net. This was after he had been allegedly racially abused by our 'fans'.

    All words in english but for a full sentence perhaps a verb and some punctuation?  I think it’s probably more of a comment on what may be perceived as an unnecessary level of aggression, which could be toned down in what is a generally amicable forum.

  • Not sure if it's already been noticed :), but I don't think the Gilbey/ Morgan combo works,

    Sad... How can we ever remove racism from the world if this is the attitude that those who receive it have to take!!

    Be interesting to know what was said if they got the nationality wrong? Marosi is Slovakian

    The midfield is proper crap and needs an overhaul - no wonder they’re being bypassed when they all have shocking first touch. Only positives are that Dobson and Morgan can play a pass occasionally, and Dobson is strong in the tackle with good positional awareness.

    I actually think Dobson, JFC and Fraser would be a very decent trio. But we need another bloke in there with them because Gilbey and Morgan should be getting no more than 10 starts between them next season.

    Would love to know his reasons, as he's always appeared very comfortable here

    It certainly doesnt sound promising if he wants to leave
