An enjoyable day out at a nice little ground, but we were lucky to get a point today. The start was unbelievably sloppy, even by some of our recent standards. We lost the ball in midfield, Fleetwood drove forward and Long fizzed in a low shot which might have taken a small deflection to beat...

A few things that struck me today: Magennis is a very astute signing. Not only is he a terrific target man and battering ram up front, he also helps us get the best out of Ajose. His flick and spin in behind the defender for our winner perfectly encapsulates that, and although he will...

That was every bit as dispiriting as I feared. The lack of squad depth was made painfully obvious by the fact that our bench was composed entirely of academy products, of whom only Lookman and to a lesser extent Holmes-Dennis have made an impact in the first team. As things stand, we are going...

I'll be at Bury. Despite everything I'm looking forward to it. Will be ground 51 out of 92 for me.

I'm holding back on this one on the off-chance that we're on TV - though we shouldn't be, surely?

Thanks very much - have just booked from Marylebone. I remember a few years back heading for Walsall, only to hear that the game had been called off en route due to a frozen pitch. I went to Villa Park instead that day, as Villa were playing Blackburn in the FA Cup, and I saw a fair few other...

I remember that our team for the final day win against Hartlepool in 2012 was only two players different from the team which had started the season at home to Bournemouth - Hamer had come in for Elliot and Yann had replaced Hayes, both fairly early on in the season. But Roland knew better, of...

Not Rowan Atkinson... it's Richard Curtis and Ben Elton I'm plagiarising :bandit:

I am leaning towards voting Leave. As a student of languages at university I know I'm in a minority amongst my friends, most of whom take it for granted that if you're interested in European languages then you're automatically going to be in favour of the EU. Indeed, some of them hope to work as...

This is such a tough decision because there are various categories that different players fall into: The I'm Not Playing As Well As I Can Category - Gudmundsson The Simply An Appalling Player Category - Sarr The I Only Play Football With One Foot Category - Reza The I Have An OK Game Every...

To be honest, I'm the one far more likely to be shot at dawn for being a quisling. Perhaps I should shoot one of the pigeons next time I'm at The Valley... Great post. So as much as we instinctively want Charlton to win, in the long run defeats are better for us.

Becoming Charlton manager seems to be the Belgian form of jury duty.

I've always considered myself lucky that I didn't go to the Dagenham game in League 1. Everything I read about it from those who were there made me sure that that was the worst performance in this club's history. Now, though, I feel like I was there. However bad we were that day, today was...

We are absolutely appalling. The atmosphere in the away end is poisonous.
