    Oh for goodness sake, I left it till 5 o'clock for safety and turned over to BBC1 just to hear Charlotte Richardson say that we'd gone into extra time. Those of you listening to the commentary you have my sympathies
    I couldn't listen to the commentary with Brownie's verbal diarrhea 

    Agree. Scotty’s much better on Bristol v WSM

    There is NO justification for conceding 3 against non league opposition.

    We shouldn't be allowing them 18 shots.

    You can't make excuses for this ineptitude!
    Apparently not only can you, but you should.
    I’m astounded that saying they’ve scored a penalty and two big deflections is counted as making excuses.

    Maybe we should all be taking turns saying the team is shit, the goalie is shit, the manager is shit and forget trying to talk about anything with any nuance. Would that make people happier?
  • We’ll win pens they’re a pub side …

















    and Southend are even worse

    Where has Dan Potts gone?
    injured
  • Are we allowed to make any more subs?
    For that question, I really wish we were playing in Barrow in Furness, just because I'm like that.

    Faced 14, saved 0.
    So you're saying he's a good chance to stop one?

    Yes I think so, because we've gone into ET

    What would make me happier is the teams performance not being shit. I think you're confusing spin with reality

    Compared to Will ‘Sliced Bread’ Mannion who has also faced 15 but saved 1 of them.


    A some people still want question why Mannion is number 1 The stats don’t lie…..

    Don't think you can criticize a keeper for not saving pens.

    We'll give it a go though ...
  • I was surprised this game isn't being televised. With our recent record this was never going to be a comfortable win for the L1 side.

    This is where not having replays is better for the non league sides.

    I'd expect to win at home in a replay. And not just bevause we would be at home. Look at Cray Paper Mills last year. We beat then second time around at their place. Usually giant killers only get one chance. The bigger club is more prepared second time around & the smaller club have had their "day out" in the first game.

    Weirdly I hope he isn't. We need to give him the opportunity to turn it round. But for now I'm not a fan of his.

    When the side is not performing, it's entirely valid they take criticism. Blind optimism is a pointless exercise, it feels like an incredible level of optimism to look at a game in which we're drawing with a side outside of the football league and say we're just unlucky and have performed well, when we clearly haven't

    Part of a reasonably long, but not entirely illustrious, Charlton tradition of taking early rounds of the Cup for granted, with inevitable egg on faces consequences, even if we sneak through.

    Any form of positivity seems like blind optimism when you're a pessimist

    You and me both. You think I’m happy with what’s going on?

    Forgive me for trying to add to discussions rather than just using this place as somewhere I can throw around expletives when the team disappoints us all.

    100%. They are non-league. Just win the game. Surely we're all tired of making excuses.

    In frequently disappointing us, don't you think a certain level of criticism is justified?
