Match Day Thread Cambridge vs Charlton (Carabao Cup)

1-0

On SSN they say we're looking poor...

 

2-0 good grief

 

This is really bad, the team and bench clearly shows we're not interested in this

 

Disrespectful of the travelling faithful.

 

I'm very disappointed.

If Jones wasn't interested in this he could have just said so.
Even if that meant taking a fine for bringing the competition into disrepute (or whatever).

I agree - he should have more respect for Charlton fans.
And I was just beginning to move past my scepticism about him.

 

Having said all that, I see we've got a goal back 2-1 HT

 

2-1. Fullah. Outstanding prospect.

 

With the exception of our goal we’ve been dreadful.

We are two divisions above them and we still bang it long constantly

 

Fingers crossed we can turn it around.
To go out against Cambridge will be embarrassing.

 

3-1

I feel for our travelling supporters.
Still time, but it's looking like a humiliation right now

 

That bench was a statement

 

Well that was a loaf of old **** - 3-1 flattered us.

Special mentions to the following:
Jones - what a ****e team he put out and what a ridiculous bench . Long ball merchant is ok when we play superior/equal teams but when playing two divisions below you???? Come on that’s not good enough

Anderson - can’t trap a bag of cement. Example of which led to his first booking

Mitchel - woeful . If he’s the best option other than Lloyd Jones for the dominant centre back position then get the cheque book out quick. Worst player on the pitch and he had serious competition

Rankin-Costello - I wanted to jump on the pitch and take the corners instead of him because they were ridiculously bad

Kelman - ffs. I assume a refund is not possible. QPR have their revenge for the Bonne deal

knibbs - in getting the feeling he feels he’s better than he is. We also need a better song for him than the lame one we have at present

 

Only player to come out with any credit was Fullah

 

That was a waste of an opportunity to get one of the big guns in the next round and make some dough. I'm deeply annoyed with this.

The first team should not need a rest after just three league matches.

Just rubbish.

 

Agreed or at the very least put them on the subs bench

 

I know we’re out the cup but I’d rather that than risk first choice players being injured by lower league henchmen- priority is staying up this season and that’ll depend on keeping our best players fit

 

I just think a nice cup run would have been good for morale moving forward. Put out a strong side, score a few, get a win and move on to the league game this Saturday with spirits high.

We will know this evening who we could have been playing in the next round. I hope Cambridge get a trip to Anfield or the Etihad.
