  • What’s the point of that far post corner if, on the rare occasion there is someone there, the player with a free header just lobs it gently onto the roof of the net? 
  • Pearce out

    Our defending has been shite for 3 seasons now at least and despite working on it on the training ground week in week out, nothing's changed. Is that coaching or players?
    20 odd players,  10 odd coaches, it's a mystery.
    Don’t think the players are good enough. What is our first choice defence? 
    A few not playing tonight. Most posters on here would have Hector & Jones in the team. And Thomas. Add in the new lad & its a different back 4 from tonight.
  • Whoever interviews Pearce, I hope they ask why can't we defend?

    Amazing the amount of people who care about this joke of a competition when we're losing!!

    Shouldnt even be on the Calendar.
    It has been for 4 seasons now. Only one way of it not being on the calendar 
    Actually it's 2 ways!

    Uh-oh, Crawley on the break but Deji makes an important interception. Campbell crosses towards Tedic, but he can't get a decent contact on the header.

    Neat pass from Kirk to Dobson, who forces a save.

    Fuck sake Kirk... Dobson was supposed to score that!!
    Kirk's first real contribution, in the 93rd minute
  • Pearce out 
    Pearce off

    SAVE AGAIN! Another fine stop from the Fulham loanee down to his left. He was at full-stretch. 4-3

    People should cut the u21 players out there tonight a lot of slack. I said after watching their game against Wigan that none of them were ready to go any where near the first team.
    The senior players out there should be the ones to blame.

    Now Crawley are bit all at sea and we have a corner.
  • Hahahahahaha what a miss

    The best measure of where we are as a club at the moment is that in shitting myself over what STEVENAGE might do to us.

    FT Crawley Town 4-3 Charlton #cafc
  • WTF... Isted!!!!

    Should be 5-3 but player is offside and puts it wide... Isted on the other hand was more interested in stopping their Goalkeeper from playing it out, than getting back

    So we have Luton's cast off keeper, they have Fulham's up and coming keeper.

    Crawley miss a stunning open goal.

    FT 4-3.

    WHoever plays the defending is a shambles. New man in charge has a big job on his hands.

    Got exactly what we deserved nothing 
  • FT: Crawley Town 4-3 Charlton Athletic

    For those who care about this competition, they'll be relieved to know we have two more games at least before we know if we advance or not...

    You're welcome ;)
  • Conceding 4 goals against league 2 opposition. Unforgivable.

    Isted comes forward for the corner, the keeper claims, Crawley have a break but forget there needs to be 2 of our men behind the ball so the lino flags for offside, and then they shoot just wide anyway.
    And that's the final score 4-3

    That performance would be laughable if it wasn't so worrying.

    Yeah, it's a shit competition and all that, but we just can't defend. Poor poor poor.
  • Kids aside, woeful once again! 
    Clearly we have goals in us, just can’t defend for toffee
