One goal will not be enough tonight, they are still in it...just, we need a second and then more in second half, this is the sort of game to up our GD

Charlton corner, long ball from Kilkenny, finds JRS out wide on the right yet defender gets a toe on the ball

Fraser to take, it goes far post but the ref gives them a free kick.

Aneke fouls his man as the ball comes into the box

Derby behind at home to Lincoln. 

But no worries as they have gained 16 points this season from a losing position. 

Doubt we've got more than 1 or 2.

Play stopped for possible head injury to an FG player near the centre circle

Apart from our goal - non league football, in a non league ground !!!

Drop ball goes back to their keeper.

CBT breaks into the area, scuffs a shot wide

We pick up the ball, CBT comes down the left and shoots wide when he might have been better off cutting back to JRS

Great run down the left from CBT, chose the shot with JRS in the box resulting in a goal kick

JRS on a mazy run more centrally but the ball is cut out.

Started well, playing some really nice stuff. Games gone back to league one slog. They can’t handle JRS tho.

ForeverAddickted

Majority of our good work been coming via. Clare and Rak-Sakyi this evening so far

CBT is quiet possibly the most frustrating player to watch ever! He’s soooo good, but then he gets into the box, and more often than not it feels like he makes the wrong decision.

HT: Forest Green Rovers 0-1 Charlton Athletic

Clare does well to get back after initially looking like he had the ball put through his legs.

HT 0-1

half time FGR not doing the CHA, CHA, CHA….

FGR Comms: "Not a good half at all, given Charlton far too much respect"

eastterrace6168

HT 0-1, good first half with a single goal from CBT, but they are not out of it, and we are still guilty of dithering at times, take the score, but we need at least one more second half...

Bailey

So in true fashion, Aneke hasn't had a kick, in the games previous, Bonne hasn't had a kick and for how many games before that Stockley didn't get a kick. The only player who has had any success in that position is Leaburn. 

RonnieMoore

Ht 0-1 …. Dominated 35 mins of that game .. should really be two or even three up Raki missing a sitter and CBT hitting side netting late on .. Aneke like Bonne and Stockley before him struggling through lack of service don’t think he touched the ball in the first half ???

We been in very good positions but final ball / cross again lacking Kilkenny Dobson CBT … all quality

FishCostaFortune

The issue here, as it has been throughout our whole season, will be if we can keep a clean sheet. 

FGR don't look great at all, yet they can still move the ball quickly on the turn over.

Good opening 20 from us, got the ball forward quickly and used both wings very well. Scored a well worked goal and deserve the lead. 

FGR came in to a bit as the half went on and we dropped back a bit, would say we go at half time in quite even. Start the second half the same as the first and grab another and we'll be good for the 3 points.
