It’s been a great and proud performance overall. We lack the real attacking edge to get past a team like United but defensivley excellent and I hope we can now do business in the transfer market for that striker.
We have to use this performance to spring up the table having gone toe to toe with Brighton and now United. There should definitely be some belief but the team has to be backed by the owner (whoever that might be)
We were decent first half and I thought very good second. Nothing to be ashamed about with that performance at all.
Hopefully a nice rest, and then reset for the Barnsley game this weekend. It’s down to Holden as a manager now, but if he can keep the standard and work rate up from the last few weeks, and we can string some wins together - we could start to move up that league one table.
There’s a tiny heartbeat of a club still there Oh to have a takeover with good intentions to cultivate that and grow the club back to facing Man U in the league.
Seeing as Anthony's right foot, which he cant even use, cost more than our football club that's a performance to be proud of. Clare recovered well from a torrid opening. Everyone put in a shift tonight and 2 stoppage time goals skews the scoreline.
"Got the job done comfortably" and "relaxed professional performance by United, completely in control" the first 2 comments by these pundits and so I'm turning that shit off.
To be fair, from their perspective, there weren’t any serious scares. We kept them honest which we can be very proud of because they are light years ahead of us in all sorts of ways, but we didn’t ever look truly like we’d be able to hurt them. I don’t think that necessarily takes anything away from performance to say that, I think we did absolutely as well as could be reasonably expected. Anything more would’ve been fairytale stuff which you can hope for but never expect.
So proud of the lads tonight. Being in it at 80 minutes was the plan but we just didn't have the legs left to have a real go. Not the time to make any criticism just proud of them all. MOM was Ness for me, just outstanding.
In reality I never expected a win but I wanted a gutsy prideful performance and for our club to give everything- the lads did exactly that and then some - United had to get out the big guns to finally snuff us out and that is a statement of how hard our boys worked. Proud❤️
You never know this could give us some momentum going into the last quarter of the season.
Great to be mixing it with the big boys again - it was actually a really "Charlton" performance - fight, grit, just lacking that bit of quality to unlock things
Also - I like the way Holden managed the game. Change in formation seemed a crazy move but it worked. Hopefully a tired bunch of players can pick themselves up for London Road. Not quite OT.

That's all that needs to be said.
Now do that for the rest of the season and get us in the play-offs.

Our support.... simply superb, was more like a home game.

Utd fans were shocking.
Rashford in great form at present. Maguire looked very poor at times...
Even Fraser who I think cost us the second by stopping running on the ball to ask for a foul whilst he was technically still in possession.
That was farcical, but he did so much well second half, it was just mad to lose your head there.
No disgrace getting beaten. Well done lads.
You sure mate?! It took bringing on their cheat code to win, as ours was injured.
The rest of his second half was really good. Hence his rating still being an 8 from me!
We did alright. Sessegnon shouldn't of come off.

I don’t think he was that good, but also not terrible, for either side to be honest.
