Great result. I don't really see how anyone could hope for much better than a clean sheet with two goals in each half. Regardless of the opposition of the opposition, that's a good score.
I didn't see much of the match, but what I did it looked like we were playing better football than of late. Let's hope that marks the start of a turnaround.
It's great to be in the 3rd round. Sad to say, but that's a cup run already compared to recent seasons.3 -

I know an intelligent Charlton fan who went to the game and he said that Dixon is not ready for the first team.Crusty54 said:
Dxon scored 4 goals against a weak non league side. League 2 defenders would be more likely to kick him to pieces.MarcusH26 said:Bizarre squad selection again. Why's Hylton involved over Dixon and 2 left backs on the bench....
Is it too late to have them arrested ?
Nah, there will be plenty of people around with the same tale...🙄0 -
Can’t believe the folk on here who want Millwall or Palace in the next round. Surely we need a winnable home draw against a side that will bring a good crowd to the Valley. While we may not get to the final, a cup run makes financial sense and can boost confidence in league games.

Although this must be the hope, there are far too many banana skins still available.

Are you saying both Palace and Millwall are not winnable games? And neither would bring a good crowd to The Valley?EveshamAddick said:Can’t believe the folk on here who want Millwall or Palace in the next round.

🤞Any one from the prem at home will bring some much needed revenue, maybe a return match against Man U would be great for a start👍0

Millwall at home would be great, as long as we have a fully fit squad. We haven't had a proper Derby in ages, no offence to Orient, but a full Valley and play Hylton and Ahadme up front, they may beat us but they'd have the bruises to prove it.0

Until the weekend I'd not have bet against Bromley beating Charlton too to be fair.golfaddick said:Man City. They way they are playing at the moment I'd bet even Bromley could beat them.0 -
That doesn’t seem to be his role playing for Wycombe. All their build up play seems to go through him, judging from their match against Wealdstone.thenewbie said:
Anderson seems to be used in the Bakinson role of just causing pure chaos and disruption. Sometimes that means breaking up the opposition, sometimes it means coming up with something genuinely impressive and sometimes it means a promising move by us breaks down.ken_shabby said:
I've been a critic of Anderson and his continual appearances when he has looked out of his depth, so happy to eat a bit of humble pie today. If he starts creating problems for the opposition with a high press and a couple of killer passes, all to the good. Fingers crossed he kicks on.fenaddick said:Just rewatched our goals, for someone who does nothing Anderson wasn’t half involved for 2/4 of them. Smart pass to REG to stretch play for the first and challenges the keeper forcing the weak punch and then blocks off a defender for the third. I know there are things he can improve on but that often means people look over things he does well
I'm not really sure I agree with the logic but it seems to be an important part of Jones style so I don't see it changing any time soon.0 -

We wouldn’t beat either and Millwall at home would have a negative effect on the crowd if past games are taken into accountLargeAddick said:

Plenty of people stay away, especially older ones/people bringing kids for fear of trouble2 -

Well, at least we now know Nathan Jones will switch it up, as we played completely different to how we played in recent games. It was against lower opposition, but I genuinely expected us to lose and we actually looked like the better team easily.
Walsall would probably beat the current bottom 6-8 or so, was really surprised at little they troubled us.
I was in a crowded area, but it felt like a proper away day, plenty of singing and backing the team, no real air of acceptance like it has been lately.
Too early to say we have turned it around just yet, but a very good start. Amazing what a team can look like when you start the two best midfielders at the club together.2 - Sponsored links:

Was on an all dayer Saturday and told the landlord the TV was broke, it was saying Charlton were winning 4-0!
Delighted for Ahadme, I really don’t rate him but hate seeing players struggling. Would give anything for him to go on a good run and show us he is capable of more than what we’ve seen so far.
Been genuinely excited about being in the 3rd round draw, one of the key elements of being a football fan that we’ve so frequently been starved of in the last decade.7 -
All valid points but Walsall did make 6 changes, the next two games will show where we areBraziliance said:Well, at least we now know Nathan Jones will switch it up, as we played completely different to how we played in recent games.

I don't know much about Walsall, can only look at the table, but we were missing a few key players as well.eaststandmike said:

Trying to be positive for a change 😂5 -
We played well on Saturday and whilst it was a team a divsion below us (at the top we might add) and they had made some changes, it was good to see us play well. Also the Gasman got 2 goals and the first was very well taken. Obviously it has to be taken in context but hopefully this can lead to a kick on now and we play better and win some more games in the league now. After all 2 wins back to back now and I know we were terrible on Tuesday but a wins a win and it can become a habit hopefully0

The Valley would not have a capacity crowd, but of course you'd like to think there would be a very good atmosphere. We could produce more half/half scarves as well.

We're stuck in the shittest league with no exciting matches and have been for years. Must be the only fanbase scared of playing their derbies.

Can’t see anything above about being scared, I said we wouldn’t beat either team and Millwall at home would have a negative effect on the crowd, someone then said the police would move the KO timeCroydon said:
