    We havent had 2 proper goalscoring forwards since we won the league with BWP and Yann
    You should expect a letter from Simon Church and Marvin Sordell complaining about that statement
    They would both miss my letterbox
    Spongefoot's letter wouldn't reach the letterbox.

    That makes the 1-1 draw last week v Sunderland even better now. Great win and great all round team performance. So pleased for Phillips who made some crucial saves in the 1st half. It all shows great character. Jonny Williams was absolute class. The defensive unit was extremely solid with Ben Purrington making a satisfactory debut. Bielik provided great protection. Continued admiration for Morgan. Taylor was Taylor.
    The Mr Picky side of me would criticise Grant for his hat-trick of profligate finishing and Pratley occasionally, ok, very occasionally worrying me but what a goal he scored.
    Shrewsbury for their part were threatening at times but only in the 1st half.
    We began the game with a good early flurry and continued to look comfortable at all times as we progressed with our 1-0 lead. The save by Phillips before the goal with his legs was pivotal. Grant was always a danger to the Shrews in the 1st half. Bielik made his customary block(s). I would describe their moves as mildly worrying.
    Jonny Williams, when you watch him is always looking for that more penetrative pass, something Reeves can learn from. That comes from playing a much higher level of football. Jonny's ball into the box led to Pratley's goal and Charlton's 2nd.
    There were more chances as well as the three Grant missed but really pleased for the lad that he got it out of his system by converting his penalty.
    Shrewsbury were definitely not on their game in this 2nd half. Expected more from them.
    Loving the singing today. Can someone post me all the lyrics to 'we're effing dynamite - I always seem to lose one of the lines.
    Superb away win.

    That’s a proper win.
    Can’t wait to see the player marks and comments.
    Love you Charlton.
    Well done lads.

    Great result today. The teams in front of us will be looking back nervously even though they've got games in hand.

    Play offs are almost certain.
    My Charlton top half bets are even more certain.
    Top two is a decent chance, depending on not too many injuries to key players.

    Charlton in terminal decline ?
    Chizz, you're having a laugh.

    I think we will miss out on automatic but when our midfielders are back we should be a strong outfit in the play offs. If we can get another striker in we will have our strongest squad since the Powell days easily

    Was very pleased to see Phillips start, and even more happy that he had a good game

    Delighted with that win and performance against those welsh inbreds. Both strikers on the scoresheet and a clean sheet with those three points.

    Got sent a video of Naby Sarr easily overpowering their striker and bringing the ball out of the back like Ferdinand is in prime. Struggling to see how Pearce gets back in the team when he’s fully fit.

    Being the highest place side in the league to win is an added bonus. With our injured players starting to come back it’s going to be an exciting end of the season. As long as we keep winning that’s all that matter.

    I think the top 2 places are wide open. Pompey, Luton, Sunderland, us and Barnsley will all be fighting for them. A lot will depend on how the transfer window goes, as all of us want to strengthen, but are also at risk of losing players to the Championship

    We have the equivalent of quality signings coming back from injury. I think the most important thing is not to lose anybody. Taylor is such a big player for us, losing him would be a blow to our chances, but not sure how that issue can be solved through the transfer market. He is the best overall striker in League One by some distance.

    I know it sounds weird but I am more concerned about Sunderland and Barnsley than Pompey and Luton. Simply because I know they are better teams, but it is how you deal with the not so strong teams too and the current top two have done that better than anybody else to date.

    When pearce is back fully fit it could be him and Sarr 1st choice.

    Good news. Where did this rumour start?
    Same place as the Mike Ashley one

    Personally think it's very hard to see past Pompey and Sunderland for the top two. I'm picking ourselves, Barnsley, Luton and Peterborough for the play offs.

    We will do very well to make up the points gap given we have played more games than any of our rivals.

    Hope we don't lose any key players during the transfer window.

    Just got back - some initial thoughts.

    First half very scrappy and Phillips did well to keep them scoreless. Second half we pretty much dominated and could easily have had another 2 or 3.

    Williams, like Taylor, is playing way below his level, he looked classy and in control all of the time. Naby also had a great game.

    Good solid all round performance against, what has to be said, a very poor Shrewsbury side.

    10/10 for the traveling fans who never stopped singing for 90 minutes. The Shrewsbury massive seemed pretty easy to wind up and our support gave them both barrels!!

    A nice relaxing Saturday evening ahead - it feels so good to win away :)

    "He’s going to be a seven every game."

    A special mention to Sarr. I like it how when he passes, it is always a positive pass not just another pass. He weights them so well and has genuine vision. He played a pass to Taylor today which was really top drawer. This was amongst other excellent ones. This does make us a better team and he should not be dropped under any circumstances. You can see other defenders give it to him to play the meaningful ball.

    Was surprised that he got slated on the CAFC Facebook page by a couple of blokes.

    I'm not. Some fans with all due respect have a bias based on the past rather than actually being able to process what is in front of them. I know it is about opinions, but some people were actually saying Morgan was having a better game than Pratley in the first half.

    Neither did Karlan!

    25 league goals and not a single penny spent on transfer fees.

    Bowyer is a genius.

    Went last May, but not today. But very pleased they got revenge for that day when some of the Salop fans lacked class.

    Exciting league this.
