HT and still only on the 4th page ...3

Our midfield manages to lack combative ability and creativity at the same time.We aren't good enough to open up sides, nor can we match them in a physical battle.
Without a strength to play to, we won't do much better than 7th-12th in this league.2 -
Dull. Two poor teams.1
-
Too many players playing like they are too secure in their shirt. Hard for Appleton because injuries and poor players mean he lacks options but to make no changes after Saturday’s poor showing sends the wrong message.3
-
I think Leyton have won every header from one of our long balls so far. I could be wrong.Kanu really struggling out on the right today, although not his natural position, so maybe not so much of a surprise.0
-
Can assume that because of injuries our players have been told not to tackle, not to head, not to block. If not they are just too timid and gutless. Shite game between two poor, poor League One teams.4

Sounds like they’ve been asked not to play aswell…Athletico Charlton said:Can assume that because of injuries our players have been told not to tackle, not to head, not to block. If not they are just too timid and gutless. Shite game between two poor, poor League One teams.2 -
After Saturday, decided today was the time for a nice family dinner and not worry about Charlton.
Just flicked thru the thread so seems that was a good move. But would be interested if someone could tell me are we playing Kanu out right and May up front as a loan striker?

A pretty dreadful game of hoof ball. Our ‘plan’ seems to be to go long ball but a general failure to win any headers and second balls renders it hopelessly ineffective. The only real threat is the occasional burst from CBT down the left but our inability to pass the ball is limiting the number of times we can get him one on one.
Practically nothing is coming from our lightweight midfield, with Campbell being physically dominated by Pratters.We don’t have many options to change things up but Appleton needs to do something at half time to improve on a pretty dismal 45 minutes against another poor opponent.1 -
Try May through the middle with Kanu
It's NOT working0 -

I swear these world beaters did a lap of the pitch last time they beat the mighty Orient….5

46 mins: Orient dangerous chance from a corner. Ball dropped in 6 yards box and hacked away. Free kick given for a foul.1
-
It's like we are stuck in second gear with no-one having a good game, similar to Saturday. We could do worse than bringing on Aslimwe and Anderson who might spark our right side attacks. The only plus point is that the O's are actually worse than us but will probably score at some point.1
-
50 mins. Another Orient chance from a long thrown in. Misses everyone and AMB collects. Defending from set pieces is a concern. Zero composure when put under pressure0
-
FFS, do something Appleton. Change shape, shuffle the front 4 around, make a sub. Try something because this is not working at all.3
-
Looking good so far at Deepdale.1
-
FFS Fraser. We had a break on there and he just hangs onto the ball until Orient can everyone back behind the ball again. The tempo to our play is pathetic. So slow to do anything.4
-
Good back tracking by Kanu1
-
53 mins. Lack of communication led to Orient thrown in. Pin ball in the box for a while before Charlton clear via CBT who’s hacked down on half way line. Orient player booked. Charlton FK in Orient half.
FK leads to nothing.1 -
He does it time and time again. We have a counter or overload and he takes 17 touches and slows the game down.Exiled_Addick said:FFS Fraser.

That’s about 6 times now the ball has been allowed to bounce in our box. Dreadful defending but getting away with it so far.1
-
How many times are we going to let the ball bounce in our area?
Even Sunday league players know you can't let the ball bounce ffs.2 -
Great free kick that one1
-
57 mins. Kanu crosses misses everyone. 4 Charlton players in the box. Orient break and have a corner.End to end chances.0
-
Chinn scores for Dartford at Welling.2
-
Fraser's not been great, but that was an incredibly important defensive header, they were scoring but for that2
-
58 mins. Corner cleared1
-
There is more shite on this pitch than there is in the grounds of Battersea dogs home…2
-
Ref hit by missile at The Den0
-
Kanu is so bad out wide1
