Not watching but to be ahead and still have May and Aneke to come on is very positive. Great opportunity today and we need to take it and ease some relegation fears
OK so we're better than Bolton (when they don't have Santos).
They are dreadful to be fair. Offered nothing and shaky at the back.
I know it’s silly to think this based on 45 mins of football, but how are we near the bottom of a league that they’re near the top of?
Clearly Bolton are having a bit of an off day so far, but it shows how poor this league is that they were just a point off the automatic spots before today’s match. We should never be where we are in this division, it’s a travesty.
Sorry but Santos - Charles - Baxter being absent cant be the reason for them looking poor that half
Still a long way to go, but equally cant see how three players have them so high up the table - Think Bolton's performance today is slightly credit to how we started, we've unnerved them, not let them settle with the press... and whilst they've looked in "control" (without doing much), its not been enough
The annoying thing is that we could have been showing effort and organisation like this all season. Bolton have been poor and there's a certain amount of luck but seeing this shows how much damage Appleton really did.
Always felt Charlton had been in this game - Bolton dominating the ball but not creating a host of chances. Charlton haven't either but found a way. Still a long way to go.
You have to say, their keeper for both goals .......
He's poor but I reckon its harsh on our players
The first one he probably gathers with ease, but the run and "attempted" header from Ladapo no doubt distracts him... the second, he probably sees extremely late, given the amount of bodies it goes through.
Chalk and cheese performance from the rest of the season. Organised, nasty and together as a group. Convinced Jones is the man to get us back to where we want to be.
Whatever the result of this game, NJ has got them playing in a way that will win games against lesser sides than Bolton. Very encouraging. High energy, no pissing around at the back and very aggressive. Great to see.

Hope they can carry it on in the 2nd half, and don't forget the City-esque subs bench we got.

Tinglicious !
If we end up throwing the game away after getting into this position, it'll decimate what confidence we've been building up.
