What a result, and in such a high stakes game too. That has to be in my top ten days in 50+ years of supporting Charlton. And it comes just three months after witnessing the Crawley debacle, which was easily in the bottom ten. It's a good moment to take stock. The transformation of this team after Crawley has been nothing short of astonishing! I have no doubt at all, we are heading for play off glory. All hail Nathan Jones for masterminding this unlikely turn of events. The guy is well on the way to becoming a true Charlton legend.
One aspect I'll disagree with, from the Post-Match comments is the subs that people are praising Jones for.
Apart from Gilbert and maybe Docherty, I thought they were the type you make when you're desperate and just go for it - Taking Edwards, and especially Coventry off messed up with our shape a bit, and barely noticed Aneke / Leaburn
Was at the match What can I say. Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees fucking have that.
Thought you left at 90+5? Was that before or after the equaliser?
Saw the equaliser and left feeling happy with a point. Heard a loud noise walking up the road and thought fuck it. Then realised it was us. Happy as fuck.
Unreal. Today wasn't really won on skill, as I don't think they played all that well second half. But the determination is off the charts. And sometimes that's all you need.

I think they have better taller markers on gillesphey and ramsay if leaburn and chuks are not on the pitch
Murder on the Orient Slow train to nowhere... We just toyed with them for 90 minutes then put them out of their misery...second spot is def not impossible now...😊
On the 1st of January we had played 22 games, we had 33 points and were 11th. We were at that point 17 points behind Wycombe, who were first on goal difference. 11 games later we are sixth and 8 points behind Wycombe, who occupy the second automatic spot. What a run.
We won three games over Christmas which included beating Wycombe. Set your benchmark as 20th of December and those stats would be even more striking.
