    Eaves drops to the floor looking for a pen but waved off

    We break and win a corner.
    Clever

    I recall someone saying that TC’s best position when he was in the youth sides was LW, and I seem to recall his goal in the Tinpot Cup was from cutting in from the left and smashing it past the keeper? Needs to be played there only

    Gentle reminder for everyone that around this time last year we went 2-0 up in a December match with a Campbell scoring the second. We went on to draw 2-2 with 2 last minute goals so try to remain calm. On the plus side, both those goals were scored by Ahadme so as long as we keep him on the bench we should be ok
    So 0-4 with an Ahadme brace?
    Given his current league goals to league own goals ratio I'm not currently willing to test that
  • Amazing the difference a couple of pacey wingers makes. Who'd a thought. 
    Think its our pacey start to the game that has helped too - We're usually so sluggish starting games, that we allow the opposition to get comfortable.

    Northampton are just shell shocked at the moment
  • We're taking the piss here midfield playing triangles 
    Drug test them all right now, something's not right 😂

  • What a shite Northampton free kick that was, after their early effort that almost caused a few problems - We now have a corner as a result

    Just tuned in and there’s a group of players that I’ve not seen before impersonating a Charlton team. Where did we sign them from?

    Corr that turn of pace from Mitchell to get back there was brilliant

    TC looks very dangerous every time he gets the ball
  • You Reds

    Northampton GK has a phantom injury so we’ll have a drinks break
  • Blimey, we look half decent! 

    Amazing what you can do when you play it on the floor and sling a few crosses in!

    6th April; 2-1 win over Barnsley in the League

    We have done it vs Southend and Walsall in the FA Cup this season though, and against Cambridge in the newly sponsored "Who Gives a Fuck" Trophy.

    Physio - "whats the injury?"

    GK  - "erm, my pride and confidence?"

    I'll have a little bet he's fine!

    This is getting really stupid.

    Great start by us. Second goal was brilliant. Northampton easily the worst team I've seen us play. Can't even make a 3 yard pass 

    My 3-0 bet is on

    Maybe NJ reads the threads on here and decided to try passing the ball through the lines

    End of the first quarter. Drinks break. Show some adverts. Go TEEEEAAAMMMMM!!!!
  • Need to start having the Goalkeeper go off if he's injured, and a player goes in goal until the ball next goes out of play.

    Coventry gives a away a freekick in a dangerous position.

  • I've heard that Northampton's coaching staff are frantically looking through their tactic book, to find out what to do when you go a goal down against Charlton... Apparently its just this
