To be fair mate there was an Andy Keogh who played Football too, so its not like you invented a name like what I've shouted out in the past as a player lol!1StevieG said:
Sorry I keep calling him Andy for some reason. Everyone around me must have thought who’s this Andy fella you’re abusing? And let’s just enjoy the irony of bringing him on to shore up the defence. He’s 92 ffs. Thanks Ipswich! 😂ForeverAddickted said:
Richard Keogh - Dont worry, he's got the permanent look of someone used to being shocked by a scoreline1StevieG said:Andy Keogh. What a melt. That is all
for someone in their advanced years you’d expect them not to run to mummy or the 4th official when you get a bit of chirp off the home fans.0 -
Left after Dobbo's tunnel jump. The Tractor Boys were in better voice before the game than after which is making the journey home much better. You don't often get tunnel jumps after a draw.2

Fucking hell. 2-3. Gutted. I'm off.
What?7 -
I remember Stockley’s scuffed shot in the first few minutes when they gave the ball away and an overlap fromFishCostaFortune said:
I don’t feel like we were woeful first half at all.cabbles said:Ridiculous game. We were woeful in the first half, absolutely woeful, which reinforces that we just don’t have enough quality in this team as a whole. Great character to keep going after being 2 goals down on separate occasions. Aneke and CBT were so much more impactful than Stockley and Kirk, but neither can be relied on for consistent fitness or consistency.You have to say Ipswich will be kicking themselves letting us back in the game in the manner they did. They should’ve been out of site.It’s impossible to make any sense of today. Just a crazy game and enjoy the entertainment.
We we’re competitive for the first 30 minutes and then okay up until O’Connell went off at 43 minutes.
And then, and I think understandably considering our back line and how well Ipswich move the ball we looked like an accident waiting to happen.
Sessegnon with a low ball into the box that got claimed by their goalie. We very much continued how we left off on Tues. complete credit for the 2 fight backs, but I think we looked inept with the way we set up with Stockley in the first half.He’s got 1 goal in open play all season. It’s a real problem and we can’t hide from it. Kirk was absent.5 -

The problem is we need JRS and CBT on the putch to get behind teams and Aneke helps too. Without them we are too easy to stop.0

Too many ifs and whens. We all know we don't have the squadRedmidland said:
Kirk played well as a 10 recently. If, and I know it's hardly likely, I'd play Chucks with Kirk, CBT out wide and JRS on the other side. Keep Stockley on the bench with Miles (when fit).Ronnietheghost said:When will he learn and stop playing Kirk and stockley? Ffs
Then bring Miles on for Chucks when he runs out of steam.0 -
I feel for him Oggy. He’s in a real rut. He gets very poor service a lot of the time. When a ball is winnable in the air there’s often no one nearby to flick it to. On the deck his touch can be terrible, but when he does get it under control he actually turns and sprays the ball quite nicely. He’s actually trying to set the tone by moving the ball quickly and directly in the way that would help him. The trouble is we often then slow down again and any space that might have opened for him is gone.Oggy Red said:
Totally agree with you about Stockley.Exiled_Addick said:I think what that second half showed is how much we just need to simplify things in the final third. Aneke obviously makes a huge difference but you can’t tell me Stockley, however poor his form has been, wouldn’t be more of a threat with a few more balls into the box like we put in second half. We have to find that way to transition from patient build up to being quicker and more direct once we’re within 40 yards of goal.
Whenever we've had a gameplan that's exploited his strengths, he's consistantly scored goals for us.
We don't do that anymore, and he's floundering bereft of confidence, because of it.That being said, I think there is something more at play. I think that injury last season has affected him. He was never fast, but he looks particularly slow across the ground now, and he doesn’t win as much in the air as he used to.
If we realistically can, I’d move him on in January and sign a replacement and a covering player. That is unlikely though. In the meantime, he’s the best we’ve got that can start games until Leaburn is fit. I don’t think anyone thinks he’s having a good season but he’s what we have so we need to try and tweak things to get what we can out of him. The constant digging out of him individually gets very tiresome. It’s not his fault the club didn’t do enough in the transfer window.28 -
Absolutely delighted to have been proved completely wrong, but I am willing to throw the towel in early at extra time in future matches, if it means we'll score twice before the final whistle...
Must admit, felt like an eejit driving through some torrential rain and listening to Sports Report (really miss the classified results).1 -

And I think we get the refs we deserve at this level but nobody deserved that incompetent official.4

2nd half was. At least, the bit I saw was. 1st half was a non-event.AFKABartram said:0 -
To all those people who left the game early today ......
..... don't worry, I'm not going to point the finger. I know if I'd been there I would've been heading for the exit at 2-3, let alone 2-4, and would probably have been down the station by the time we equalised.
But whenever I've left early in the past I've always told myself as I've gone that if we end up winning/drawing then that's fine and I can live with it - and in fact if me leaving early means we DO make a comeback then it will have been worth it, taking one for the team.
It's probably flawed logic, but it always makes me feel better!8 -
Big shout out to the team today by not quitting and also every Charlton supporter that was still there at the end.
6 -
By the way, who else was up at Portman Road that time we drew 4-4 there? I'm sure the scoring went the same way then too ...... 0-2 down, back to 2-2, 2-4 down and then 4-4 right at the death. I'm sure we got a late penalty - Tommy Caton?
Or have I imagined all that?8 -
We weren't woeful. We were holding them well until Egbo went off and then we lost our attack ing impetus with Morgan and Kirk on the wings.cabbles said:Ridiculous game.

Fraser and Dobson were running the midfield well but we had no out ball. Then we lost O'Connell our best central defender.
Fortunately the ref wiund up the team and the crowd to a special performance over the 99 minutes.6 -

You're no more than a glory boy. Go support your grandfathers team.
Nah, I take a lot of fucking stick & dont usually bite. But this time some people have even been questioning whether I wanted us to win.2 -
I get what you're saying, but is it a big deal if a manager has to sit in the stands? Perhaps if he gets a them against us atmosphere going and inspires a fightback it might not be such a bad thing.killerandflash said:The referee was terrible, but Garner has to cope better.
It's not as if this was the first time he's got into trouble this way4 -
Can’t not agree with much of that. Though I don’t think our lack of bite in the final third meant we were woeful overall, especially when we matched and negated Ipswich for much of that half, and in general were good across the rest of the pitch.cabbles said:

In an ideal world with who we have fit I would want Aneke to start and Kirk to play off him. Aneke has this knack of bringing players into the game and also offers more movement which I think would aid Kirk. But sadly this is what we have at the moment.
Id play Stockley in these cup games and try and get some confidence back into him. Because I think in a two up top he can still provide something for us.1 -
When was the last time we scored a last minute/stoppage time goal that counted for something? Obviously we got one at Accrington but conceded immediately after.
Was it Cullen away at West Brom?2 -

shades of Mendoca's Wembley .. 4 goals after the 90 was up .. great fighting spirit and when a team shows that, they can be forgiven anything .. I'll say again. our squad is not as flimsy or light on players as many keep saying .. terrific game1

Think Garner has a fine coming after that interview!!0
-
I was listening on Charlton TV…..when their fourth went in I turned off in disgust……what a twat.
I should know better.🫤2 -
Well, that was fun.
Still shows the difference Aneke & CBT make. Aneke is so good at holding the ball up, backing into players & bringing others into the game. Something Stockley just can't do and then there is his power when running with it. He made the first goal & without that we would have gone on to lose by 4 or 5.
We really do need to drop Stockley & start Aneke. I don't believe he cant play 70 mins from the start.4 -
Yeah, ha ha ha ......but I'd only just started reading the thread from the beginning when I saw your post - and immediately responded.Baldybonce said:

Was at that, comeback never seemed on the cards! Was the 4-4 at home to Norwich also 0-2, 2-2, 2-4, 4-4?Off_it said:By the way, who else was up at Portman Road that time we drew 4-4 there?

I watched the match until the final whistle. Unbelievable Jeff! But i didn’t watch the post match stuff on Charlton tv as I wanted to catch the last of the evening on the beach with a drink! Bloody shortening of day light.1
