    3-0? I feel oddly uncomfortable
    It's unholy and unnatural GM, i agree.

    Reading are in free-fall because of their ownership. 

    A shame to see and they'll likely be in League Two next season.

    It’s very hard for me, but I must feel I need to eat some humble pie regarding MA. He’s turned us around into a scoring machine since his arrival at the club 
    I'm actually a bit smug. Wasn't exactly pro Appleton (and certainly didn't expect THIS kind of form) but did think some of the criticism was overboard... which it was.

    I should nip to the loo quickly...🙄

    Michael Appleton about to become the first Addicks manager since Johnnie Jackson to go six unbeaten in the league at the start of his tenure. Doesn't feel that long ago but he's the third manager in that time.

    That's a substitution I wasn't expecting to see.

    Same. Although I still think there's work to be done. I think some of his success has been having some very good players come in/get fit. But I felt like he was a big upgrade on Holden and I feel vindicated by that.
  • CBT poor so far today
    Aged well…

    Charlton corner, taken by Fraser ...

    Headed out as far as TC who lined up another shot ...

    Only for it to be blocked 10 yards out by Thomas!

    Told you he should have started.

    Make me manager & we'll storm this division. 
    As long a we don't play on a Sunday .....
    I tip my hat to you sir…

    That's a shame, corner comes out to TC and his volley hits Thomas when it might have been going in. TC then beats a man well to get into the area and his cross is put behind.
  • Why don't they start with Nathan and TC...

    Maybe its just a bit of luck for him at the moment, but his Game Management, and use of subs appears to be outstanding

    Would love to see Savage get crunched.

    Asiimwe coming on at 60 minutes and he looks a world beater because he's so much strong and quicker than the opposition. Lovely turn there. Campbell has been a fantastic spark since coming on.

    Jones meets the corner but his header is going wide before it is nodded on by the offside Thomas

    If you average 2 points a game you'll go up or get very close to it at least

    Been thinking the 80th minute has been going on for ages and just realised the big screen is stuck on 79:51.

    Does anyone know if Savage has a relative who played for Man United?

    I know it's a hack joke but someone had to make it.

    Torture for Reading as the big screen clock is stuck at 79:51.

    We'll be allowed to carry on until we get half dozen.
