    I'm actually struggling to give Jones too much grief tonight because for all you can accuse him of having a negative setup and not enough creative players, can you really plan for your keeper putting a ten yard pass out of play or your other players failing to connect with their teammates stood 4 yards away? He'll live and die by what we do in the final third but we've got players unpressured failing to complete the simplest passes possible. Everyone needs getting in the blender.
  • Godden shot off the post, should have buried that one...

    Alfie would have put it away.
    🤦‍♂️

    But I thought we were good in cup games Nath? What’s the excuse now?

    We had Taylor and Coventry in Midfield in other games.

    Tough start for Dixon but let's give him time.
  • Incredible how many different Charlton players have just hit the ball directly out of play or to an opponent under absolutely no pressure already. Are they coaching it?

    Is it possible that Jones the Guff’s cunning plan is so secret he hasn’t told the team?
    It's so secret even Jones doesn't know what it is
    He will work it out at the end, before he gives his after match Interview 😁

    Small runs down the line and gets a good cross in but doesn't find anyone, good break.

    How's Dixon not got on the end of that? It's come a long way
  • It’s actually funny how bad our passing is 🤣
    You wonder how some of them became footballers at times. They must have been capable of passing fifteen yards to a team mate once in order to make the grade.

    Got audio delayed by 20 secs after pics, anyone know the cure?
    Best advice is turn it off and enjoy yourself elsewhere.

    Small down the left puts a good cross in but Leaburn can't get to it.

    Nice play from Edun and Small
  • Good run and cross by Small. Somehow missed by all the players in the box.

    Bit of quality from Small. Leaburn shit his pants.
  • Oh that deserved better... great link up between Edun and Small sees the latter escape down the left, cant find a red shirt in the box with his cross though

    Super cross from Small and 3 forwards can't time their runs correctly!

    Great cross from Small  Leaburn did not seem to want to go for it!

    Good ball in from Small that. Shame Leaburn sauntered in like Gazza in a gun standoff

    Potts lofts it forward to Small but he's offside.

    What's happened to the pitch?
    Too much manure on it all season

    Great long ball up from Potts, pin point to small but he was offside.

    I reckon you're losing interest mate :)

    The only way you can blame NJ for the useless play from our players is that he brought some of them to the club

    Small is playing a bit
  • Decent defending from Orient there. 
  • Potts has done alright so far, would like to see him ahead of Gillesphey
  • Edun and Small working space well down the LH side

    Edun to Godden, wide to Small, nice ball to Edun who cuts back to Berry who seems uncoordinated and puts it wide.

    Better the last couple of minutes from us, still not great but getting into the game more

    Its a game where neither team wants to win

    We are actually starting to press them into a few mistakes now. Let's see if it lasts
