At the game......... Grassed up already by @ozaddick top top man
Pretty nothing 1st half apart from important save and catch by Amos.
Second half, weather turned for the worse and we had to batton down the hatches as Bradford smelt blood. Resolute in defence we always had a chance to nick something and so we did 15 mins from time. Solly much berated by many on here of late, surged down the right played a one two and crossed for Fosu to steer goal wards and JFC of all people was there to poke home.
Could we manage the game out though? Oh yes thanks to further interventions by Amos, Konsa, Bauer Sarr and co.
The 100% away run for me continues, I don't normally break a promise @ForeverAddickted this one was for you. Great to meet you @ozaddick enjoy the rest of your stay and make sure we get 3 points against the Dons COYRS 10 -

Special mention to the Charlton fans who , did as I thought , when the ball went in to the fairly empty lower tier near them at the end . They shuffled around pretending to look for it and stalled the game for a little bit but the Bradford keeper was wise to it and jumped in to the stand to get the ball .

Was at the game.
Our back four were absolutely immense. Whatever possessed Naby when he went away to France, hats off to it. Unless KR gets the credit for getting him to play. He would have been my MoM if it wasn't for Big Ben and his heroics.
I thought Holmes was a bit wasteful today, but perhaps he wasn't fully recovered. He didn't seem strong enough trying to get behind their full back and he got more frustrated as the game wore on. Tariqe was a handful particularly 2nd half. He will win plenty a game for us if he stays fit. Josh should've put away at least one of a couple of good chances to kill the game near the end, but he had a good game in the difficult conditions where it was hard to hold up the ball.
This would've been a 0-0 last season ( ). This is definitely a team on the up. 6 -
Now I’m at home and dried out I’d like to add that one thing I did notice, bearing in my mind I don’t see the Addicks as much as most of you, was the fact like we looked like a team, that we had eleven players on the pitch who knew their job and who knew they could count on those around them. I’ve seen Charlton under each manager of the RD era and that togetherness hasn’t always been evident, indeed at times it looked like eleven strangers who had been flung together and told to just ‘do your best’. Whatever Robinson is doing he’s at least getting that bit right.17

I've actually got the original 45 for that...woke up this morning feeling fine,...The31YearMan said:Can anyone confirm the lyrics for the latest Charlton song by Herman Hermits - I'm into something good?

Great performance, the sort of performance you need to have if you are to be successful. Only time will tell.
Not our normal fluid stuff. But defended well against a resolute and strong team who won't get beat often at home and as many have said have scored often this season.
Everyone worked hard and especially last ten put their bodies on the line. Great away support.
Back in Essex albeit still not fully dry.
Ps if anyone has a spare stub from the game and doesn't keep them, I'd happily pay postage for you to send it to me, as I lost mine to the wind and I always like to keep them.0 -
From what I heard on the stream, that was a Bradford song. Have we nicked it?letthegoodtimesroll said:.

@AddickUpNorth It was noticeable that all the players joined in the goal celebration.
@JamesSeed The worse for wear. Me too x4 -
How can you say that? we were totally outclassed by Wigan. 3-0 at home. Haven't seem Shrewsbury but they haven't lost in 15 games so cant be bad ....Leeds_Addick said:Said it earlier in the season and I'll say it again, our first 11 is good enough to win this league.
Couple of injuries could cost us big time but here's hoping our new owners bring in a couple of reinforcements in January.
I do reckon Wigan will win the league but I don't see Shrewsbury staying in the top 2.2 -
I think we were particularly bad that evening and were setup wrong. They knew exactly how to play against us but on a good day for us I think we could match them.redman said:

But, I think they'll win it as our 11 players can't be expected to be 10/10 every single game.2 -

Blimey you used to be pessimistic. What have you been on?oohaahmortimer said:Watched on a stream , although fell asleep at ht and missed the first 20 minutes of second half .
Amos is completely different to the flapping version from early on in the season , outstanding .
Sarr comfortable and much improved but was that him who ducked late on and let them in.
Just a great composed all round team performance.
As stig I think said, a win with the whiff of Roly selling feels better than if the stale old twat is staying put .
Well done to the travelling faithful , enjoy the journey home .

In an airport terminal changing planes, great to get another 3 points and at a promotion rival (Bradford are certainly playoff contenders)
Just a thought, but with Sarr looking so good at LB, why did we use Jacko as LB cover earlier this season? I guess Robinson has been won over by Sarr2 -
Don't care if we don't get anywhere near 100 points, just as long as we get enough points to get us 2nd place after 46 gamesFortune 82nd Minute said:After 14 games, SCP's title winning team of 11/12 had W9, D4 and L1. Points 31.
KR's team currently stands at W8, D 3, L3. Points 27.
So only 4 points behind the team that eventually broke the 100 barrier. Which at this stage of the season is really neither here nor there.
Mind you, SCP's team won its next 5 games. No pressure then, Karl!6 - Sponsored links:

A mixture of time difference and a heavy night in Colombia meant I woke up way after the match had finished, but what a win to wake up to! Fantastic result. Cannot wait to see the boys play live in a couple of weeks. Have to say fair play to robbo, he has received a lot of criticism since he started, a fair bit of it deserved but he's really won me round. Well done to you Karl, seems like you COULD be on to something special! COYR1

KR has turned this team around. When he joined the whole squad was a shambles, uneven squad, weak players and no organisation. He's got a good settled squad now, he's developed a system that all the players are buying into, and he seems to be well liked by the footballing community.I can't see us catching Wigan as they looked very good against us, but I can easily see Shrewsbury imploding and falling down the league. Automatic promotion is a definite possibility. Roland will sell the club at the peak of his stewardship, he probably thinks he'll get more money that way, he could've let the club totally fail, and invested no money before selling like Orient.5

Just want to say how much I loved Nabby's first half last man slide tackle where it looked like he dispossessed their winger with his bum.
Literally putting his arse on the line.4 -
I can't work out how to post pics on here but I have just seen on Twitter that the Bradford programme featured PC Palmer as our legend. Absolute class.19

Robinson last off the pitch?se9addick said:Good win, could easily have been a draw but for a great defensive performance. I've been a critic but Amos was really solid towards the end.

And Shrewsbury beat Wigan! The way they're going, we certainly can't afford a defeat at Shrewsbury in a few weeks. Gap is already 10 points, so we definitely don't want it getting any bigger.redman said:

And also one of those nano-second moments of thinking when the ball hit the back of the net the next picture is going to be showing the linesman with his flag up for offside.Phew.Weegie Addick said:@AddickUpNorth It was noticeable that all the players joined in the goal celebration.

Also it seemed the whole team went to congratulate Amos after his double saves.
i couldnt give the player playing on right wing first half and left wing second half any marks coz the cameraman didnt show them.0 -
Great to hear all the positivity, especially from those who went. Let's hope we can keep going and coincide with completion of a takeover deal. It would be fantastic to get promoted under new owners the same season they arrive. The feel-good factor could be a huge boost with a thousand or two thousand returning fans. We need to ensure we beat some of the weaker sides when their turn comes...0
