How many teams are going to whip the ball behind the back four and score...that is bloody basic stuff...we have no strikers and no-one with the ability up front to create anything for our no goal scoring striker..when are some of you going to wake up to the fact that we are simply not good enough....add to that I am on the train home to even bigger disillusioned pompey fans ..they think they have cracked the nut beaten us...0

No surprise. Same old Charlton. Always guaranteed to let us down on the big occasions!
Found the whole performance tedious beyond belief. Repetitive shite that wasn't working but still we persevered with it. Utter crap4 -
Plenty of effort and desire to get something from the game. But we still have pieces from the jigsaw missing in depth.1

We lacked creativity, Portsmouth did us tactically I felt as you pointed out our 4-2-3-1 is too predictable

We just don’t look like scoring. Goals have dried up from the midfielders and Magennis looks in dire need of a rest.
Solly awful, Konsa and Sarr doesn’t work.
Feel sorry for Aribo, has had no football at all and has been chucked back in - Kashi’s are very big boots to fill - he isn’t the same sort of player.
Bored with Forster-Caskey going missing.
Holmes and Marshall not doing it at the moment.
Manager is so rigid in his tactics and he needs to mix it up from time to time.
Real issue is the owner will do nothing to address the paper thin areas of the squad.
TBH without 2-3 decent signings in January I think the play offs will be beyond us.
Worst moment of the day? Meire on the pitch at half time. Given that she has openly stated she is not interested in our history, why would she want to be part of any 25th anniversary celebration?29 -
I agree, but the proviso for this is that you have to be near the goal to shoot, which unfortuantely we have a problem with at this current moment in time.Justin20474 said:Pointer for the players, if you shoot you might score, if you don’t shoot you WONT FUCKING SCORE!!.

Aribo looked out of his depth? Have a wipe.Rob said:Watched it on the stream.
Not good from us. No one really played well. I thought Aribo looked out of his depth. Marshall and Holmes kept running into dead ends. We never really tested their keeper until the Magennis header at the end. Too much tippy tappy, sideways stuff and no cutting edge. Oh for a creative attacking central midfielder. Why it took Robinson so long to bring Reeves on is beyond me. What could he do in 5 minutes!
I thought Pompey looked far more threatening than us when they went forward.
Our attacking threat and scoring seems to have dried up. We probably missed Kashi today but in all honesty the problems weren't at the back but it was our attacking threat that was solely missing today. I didn't think Magennis had a good game. He's ok in the air but that's about it as far as I can see.
Our flair just seems to have gone. I think teams may have sussed us out now and Robinson doesn't seem to have the answers to change things.
Holmes was by far the worst player on that pitch today, bringing best unsettled them so should have been done earlier.
Best couldn't have done much else with that header and it was game saving save.8 -

Never seen Solly get skinned repeatedly like he did today, Holmes has gone all Tony Watt on us, Magennis has decided his season finished when he didn't qualify for the world cup and Karl is too stubborn to change system when it's going wrong, playoffs looking less likely as the weeks go by.
On the plus side I thought Aribo did well along with Sarr and Konsa.7 -

Don’t bet on that about Godden.ForeverAddickted said:
Godden wont be signed... another season at this level with another go next season IF we have new ownersShootersHillGuru said:Not a prayer of top two. I suppose any place 3rd - 6th will do but that’s looking no better than 50/50. Window coming up but Matt Godden is not going to make the difference.
Got a stinking cold and sat there frozen and miserable.

Hats off to the Pompy fans throwing glass bottles and coins across the platform when there were only about 12 Charlton fans left on the Kent bound platform. Glass bottle smashed about a foot away from a disabled man and coins only just missed some kids.
Classy.
Also well done to the old bill for just letting it carry on whilst concentrating 15 police officers on the 3 Charlton fans between 16-50 on the Kent bound platform. Definitely was important to film them rather than those throwing stuff.
Fucking shambles.3 -
What happened with Meire on the pitch... was she booed?0

Sounds like we've really missed Fosu.2

Yes. But then swiftly sent back to being irrelevant as the former players were introduced on the pitch.sammy391 said:What happened with Meire on the pitch... was she booed?

At the Valley today giving out those wonderful rosettes organised by CARD.
All gone by 2.15.
Then I was offered a free ticket for the game, nearly succumbed, but didn't thank goodness.
Just sell the club and fuck off Roland, you sad old tosser.16 -
Holmes needs to be dropped imo. According to previous games he has been poor and today proved it. The ball he played across should have been drilled with the hope it hits someone at least! Thought Aribo was one of the better players, composed on the ball and strong in the tackle, Sarr does try to do to much but when no one else is offering anything at 1-0 down, go for it lad!
I like Robinson but the subs were to late. Pompey were shit and will lose more games than they win playing like that, just we had no killer instinct.4 -

Plenty of early possession that ultimately produced zip. Can,t blame individuals but a few of the better opportunities created were screwed up with heavily over hit final ball ( Holmes no 1culprit). Thought Sarr was one of the few who can take his pay with head held high. The short period Best was on the pitch he showed more attacking flair than the rest did in 90 minutes. He should have come on earlier and we should have gone 442.
Top two long gone, and in a few weeks play offs may well be the same. Not winning is becoming a habit.1 -

Great day to be a Charlton fan....
If you collect rosettes.
Other than that what a poor performance.
We started well enough and we're camped in their half but without creating chances but they came back into it and after they scored they deservedly got the win.
We just had so little spark or imagination. Sides know that if they press us high up the pitch and double up on the wingers were lost.
Good to see a bigger crowd but little to entice them back.
Just sell the club9 -
1 point from the last 3 games
5 points from the last 5 with 4 of them at home
It’s cause for concern in a pub league but our decent start gives us some breathing space which could evaporate by the time Blackburn turn us over .

We could have played for another hour and still would not have scored. It was so cold that my snot froze. That's all I've got.8

Lacklustre, too many of them having an off day, can only give Clarke credit, we’ve been way below average last 3-4 games.2
