    Wasn't expecting that. My Bolton-supporting mate might not fancy a drink tonight after all.

    Our best 3 points this season. We seem to do well against the better sides this season which is really confusing considering some of the dismal performances we've turned out against sides in the bottom half.

    Well I never. Just goes to show, could this be the start or have I just started on the beer too early??

    I predicted it on the preview thread : - )

    But one down with ten men and you still win away from home is outstanding.

    Sounds like JFC might be the missing ingredient in midfield.

    Just hope we can hang on near the top six while the players all get fit and we can kick on.

    Top six in minimum of where we should be. Still doable after today but how many false dawns have we had this season?

    Incredible resilience to hang on for that long. Bauer more than made up for his mistake.

    Great result. We've had some good results since the Millwall defeat in December despite having injuries and players coming and going.

    Lets hope it continues.

    2-1 Charlton, Byrne to pull out a man of the match display, scoring one and setting up the other.

    Bristol Rovers beat Swindon at home.
    Fleetwood and Southend play out a draw.
    Oldham draw at home with Bradford.
    Peterborough lose at home to MK Dons.
    Walsall draw away at Bury.

    Finish the day 6 points off the play-offs with a game in hand over most teams above us.

    Optimistic? Of course! But it can happen.

    Excuse me @AFKABartram I believe I done alright with the predictions today (minus the Oldham result as IA pointed out) ;)

    Fantastic result and 10x better considering we played almost the full match with 10 men, away from home at 3rd in the league.

    If that doesn't breed confidence, nothing will. Another week of training, another week of fitness and intensive work, and maybe, just maybe we bring in one more player to improve us, and why can't we push for play-offs?

    Well done to all today and safe trip back to the travelling fans.

    The Bolton commentators said there was something or another just after Bolton scored.
    Stewards moving into our fans.

    Just need to go on a run now for the rest of February.

    Winning our game in hand would stick us 8th with only 3 points from play-offs if other results went our way.

    You say that, but that's our first win against a top 7 team this season.
  • Best win of the season so far. Well done!
  • Pub league , the play offs are possible

    Ten men we only had ten men

    Good to see the thousands travelling up there ,with the free travel, roaring the boys on to victory .

    Look forward to hearing from those there .

    0% Top two ......... 25% 3rd-6th ......... 60% 7th-12th ......... 15% 13th-20th ......0% relegation
  • Sounds like a superb performance under the circumstances, but fear that play-off talk may be premature. We need a few new signings and that win will hardly persuade Duchatalet to loosen the purse strings. Still, to come away from Bolton with three points after going down to ten men is excellent. Need to back it up with a solid win against Fleetwood or we're back to square one. COYR.

    We've beaten a few playoffy sides who've subsequently fallen away (in horror)

    Was watching sky sports at 3.15pm they reported the sending off and the equaliser simultaniously.I then turned off the tv for 20 mins and saw half time score at 2-1.Decided no go for a nap and woke to a 2-1 win ,Brilliant.
    I then went through the match thread entry by entry and got really tense towards the end of the match before remembering I knew the score.Much as I try to pretend ,with all the shit[from the owners] that I dont get affected I do still care and love it when we win even though it is only the third division,

    Equally however I believe the only one of the top 6 we've lost to is Rochdale. It shows we definitely have the potential to be a top 6 side, we just need to start turning draws into wins.

    Glad for an unexpected Charlton victory. Always pleased when Charlton win. Especially good as Charlton supporters needed a lift after another mediocre looking transfer window & Duchatelet not showing signs of selling up. Well done to the players for the 3 points.

    Superb result & with 10 men. My flabber is truly gasted. Well chuffed, a defeat today would have nearly finished our season, but now we're still in with a shout.

    Not sure what happened there. Fighting amongst our own? No excuse for the heavy handed stewards though. Morons.
