Half time muted boo’s from the home support. That’s an encouraging 45 from Charlton. Good possession and we’ve created a couple of good chances. Chef Wendy not doing any pressing. Carry on as we are and we’re in with a shout. Only disappointment… Jayden Stockley. It’s not happening for him at the mo
Not a bad half, but Stockley looks completely out of sorts. Also frustrating that Kirk isn’t attacking the far post when we have the ball out wide right. He would have had an easy tap in.
I’d bring Payne on for Fraser, and Leaburn for Kirk.
Could and should have been a lot better, we need to be more composed in the final third, missed chances and on another day could be 2 up, still,sure Ben will put ‘em straight, still confident we’ll win ..😎
Very odd people posting scores from divisions irrelevant to this club. Quite pointless.
As for football talk on football forum, sure, start a thread titled Random scores nobody cares about or if you do care you probably have an app, a radio, a TV, internet to specifically follow them….
For me personally I like to watch the football highlights in the evening and would prefer not knowing any of them, but hey ho.
It's been a decent half from the controversial correspondent.
A few predictable comments, and these have incurred the wrath of one or two, but some nice, if seemingly irrelevant, score updates from elsewhere designed to prove a general point or two.
Will he be able to keep it up in the second half as the heat takes its toll? I think so. He has had a good pre-season, and some of the long-term injuries are behind him. The odd pain in the neck, but that's about all.
Looking at the bigger picture ... is he showing signs in these early matches that he is capable of going on a long and successful run?
Well, it's difficult to say. There are many unknown factors, so only a fool would commit at this early stage.
Playing well but should be winning. How refreshing to see us pass the ball well. Goals will come from this team, we’re not reliant on one player to create. Need to keep it up and start taking our chances.
All that half was lacking was one of the wingers or midfielders anticipating one of those far post crosses or CBT having a bit more composure once he’d round the keeper.
It won’t always be perfect but it’s been a while since we’ve had a playing identity. I’m enjoying watching us play to a system. We seem to be decent at it too. Just need to find that last 5% which is where all the goals will come from.
I was thinking the same. Even when we are being pressed there seems to be an out ball option. No question Weds will be better in the 2nd half. Think Payne will be on for Fraser after an hour if things stay the same.
On top for most of the half, our press for the first 25 minutes or so was fantastic, got the crowd against the home side, but just couldn’t take any of the chances we made. Lots to be positive about.
Can we keep it up second half is the big question.

Let's just say ... we remain optimistic.
He’s past it. Other forums have signed much better moaners.
Decent first half.. would have been good to score as we're in danger of being the Derby of this equation.
Would like to see CBT and Kirk switch sides as their left back has pretty much got CBT matched for pace whereas he'd rinse their right back and Kirk would provide their left back with a more cerebral challenge.

In the days when highlights are available well before MOTD I find it strange that we are not allowed to comment on PL matches.
Its hardly the 1970's with Terry finding out by mistake how England got on.....
Ffs @golfaddick it's been the unwritten rule on here since I qas doing the match thread. People asked politely not to put PL scores or scorers on the match threads....and now you find that to moan about! Bloody hell!

him & even spoke to Steve Gallen about him - who seemed not to know about him.
A lad on loan from a Premier League side who seems to know where the net is. But we dont need a striker it seems. We have the free scoring Stockley.
