    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?
    What would make me happier is the teams performance not being shit. I think you're confusing spin with reality 
    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.
    OK. I think saying "shit" on a football forum occasionally is OK, but sorry to offend.

    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 
    100%. They are non-league. Just win the game. Surely we're all tired of making excuses. 
    Fuck me this is frustrating to deal with.

    I am not happy. I didn’t realise the only way I was allowed to express it on here was the same way you lot do.

    NJ gone by Jan….FFS playing Hylton 
    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.
    But looking at the starting team you can hardly say we took it for granted.

    Its just that the team is shit, the goalie is shit and the manager is shit. :-)

    Should be good enough against this lot surely, also no other option, Miles needed subbing...

    When you are frustrated with how our team plays, each of us deal with it differently. Some are calm and some go round kicking furniture. We are all different

    Lord you've done it now!

  • Just going to say that, on TG4in Ireland, they are showing Women's AFL, and there are more positives about Charlton there.

    Sadly because it's one of the players.

    Can understand the antipathy towards V 1000 but what other fit strikers have we got not already involved?

    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.
    BBC already knew it was going to be crap

    Can everybody just calm down. We are on the verge of getting knocked out of the FA Cup to a non league team. Gives us time to focus our attention on finishing 14th in the league. 
  • We need to be more front footed

    The owners must be wondering by now if NJ was the right choice.

    I'm thinking as much about  sub decisions.
