    Coventry was around the same spot as their goalscorer was. 

    Once again no composure.

    Nice passing from Mitchell, Coventry and Gillesphey, but Coventry's shot from distance is pretty far over the bar.

    Why can't we shoot from distance? Not a single one of them are close.

    "Charlton running out of time"
  • Birmingham score from 20-yards.

    CharltonLife: "Why dont we ever try and shoot like that"

    Charlton shoot miles over on three occasions in the second half alone from similar situations

    CharltonLife: "Ah"

    Awful touch by Ramsey. 
  • It went from not very good at the beginning to absolute toot by the end. 

    Playing ten men and it's still backpass after backpass

    This has been a dire 2nd half from us

    This is another game where the 'where are the goals coming from' is asked. Zero composure once we're around the box.

    You act like scoring from distance is so easy, and such a regular thing?

    Brum come down our left via May, we block, passes to Chuks, he sends it over to Ramsay, but a heavy touch loses the ball.

    Ramsay has had a bit of a shocker since coming on.

    We try to get the ball to Edun in the box but he gets muscled off the ball, and it's out for a goal kick.

    Coventry has seen how the forwards have gone and quite rightly had a pop

    Probably been our best player this evening.

    Docherty flashes the ball across the 6 yard box but it goes all the way out for a throw

    Heavily rotated Birmingham beat heavily rotated Charlton by single goal thanks to a 25 yard effort from a 19 year old right back playing out of position that wouldn’t be able to do it again if you gave him 100 attempts.

    Yeah I’m over this one already. Not sure others are going to be though.

    Mitchel pumps it forward, Chuks chests down, and the boards up with 4 mins.

    In 2 games we've had 3 shots on target. At Wigan there was Jones's goal & Campbells shot. Tonight we had Campbell's penalty.

    Stick Jones up front, he's our best finisher.

    Ramsay goes down the right, gets it to Docherty in the 6 yard box, and he flashes it across goal.

    I realise that our idea of a cup run is a replay, but going out tonight will leave us to concentrate on the league.
    We have bigger fish to fry.

    I mean its different teams that do it against us, rather than the same team time and time again though... As we've shown from the opportunities we have from distance, its easy to create the chance, not easy to take it.

    Do we really want pen's...

    We look crap, we can't cross, we can't pass and we can't shoot.
    Only positive for me is Zach Mitchell, i think we have a very capable player and one for the future.

    Just catching up with this thread.
    That shirt is never a 12, she's fooling nobody
    Look closely and it reads 72.

    I think I have the answer to our current malaise.  We have 1 shot on target per game, 2 shots on target in 2 games in aggregate, and 1 goal.  So we score with every other shot on target.  Ergo, we should try to shoot more whilst simultaneously hitting the target with said shot, which would result in more goals at a ratio of 1 for every 2.  Go tell Jones the Gaff.
