Best half The Mouth has had, Bauer and Texiera played like they did last year. The goal wasn't the defence's fault, it was entirely down to Rudd
Down to 15th in the league. If Port Vale win their games in hand, we could still be in the sh-t. It is simply scandalous that Charlton are in this league position.
First half rubbish second half I thought we played well missed 3 good chances penned Bradford in their half for long periods ...have to admit I was entertained ...BUT another game for Robinson without a win
I think we will limp over the line, with a few draws and one or two wins. We have a top six budget don't you know.
The atmosphere in the ground now is weird/unique. There's no protest chants, no acceptance of the league position; only a deflated support for the team that gets going if or when the players do. And to be fair they put in the effort last night, which in itself probably speaks volumes given the result. Like Mikey says I was quite entertained during the second half. Still tons of obvious issues on the pitch, namely the back four can't play as a unit and in particular Crofts was terrible. But there were even chants of 'Robinson's Red Army' as we looked for a winner. What else are you going to do if you don't go?
Good post @The Kish I agree about the atmosphere in the Valley - it is almost surreal. Our remainv gaggle of fans are suffering from Stockholm Syndrome, where they have been treated so badly they have actually become grateful to their captor.
I cut my toenails was also thinking of having a look at Leeds Castle's website but a nice dish of pasta put an end to that thought.
I had a couple of beers after work, checked my Cheltenham bets on Betfair (all lost) and had some more football bets last night (all lost as well)
The local open-mike at the Orpington Liberal club with real ale at £3 a pint won the day. There's the rub, a couple of years ago there wouldn't have been any decision to be made- Charlton are at home end of story. I'm not even on a boycott any more, I just take each game as it comes.
pretty boring match overall. bradford should have been leading after the first half. found myself willing us to go behind in the second so i had an excuse to leave. man flu has taken me.
