    We signed David Nish for more than that in the days when it cost 60p to stand on the Popside and £1.20 to sit down

    Not the greatest view, sat down on the Popside. 😉

    I think the club should be looking at lower leagues and taking a relatively low stakes gambles. Hopefully the new head of recruitment will earn his corn.

    Put in a poor performance against a good side at this level who are on a good run and you get punished, that’s what’s happened today.
    It doesn’t mean the season is over, it doesn’t mean we can’t make the play offs, it doesn’t suddenly mean none of these players are fit to wear the shirt. Only a few short weeks ago we were flying and in great form, every chance we can go on another run as much as there is we can go on a bad run. 
    As it stands we are still in the play off positions, we’re 4 points clear of 7th with a better goal difference and 6 points clear of 8th with a game in hand on Shrewsbury. We’ve got 2 games in hand in Bolton, win them and we leapfrog them. The season doesn’t finish today, learn from it and move onto the next one ? 

    Quite right. We were pretty good as recently as last week.

    Interesting game. Until the second went in there was always the outside chance they might nick one against the run of play. Charlton have some good, strong quick and tricky players (17 was a handful) they aren’t afraid of hard knife edge challenges. Some were desperate and ragged. A physical side but they did try and play football. Just don’t think they are a bonded unit like us. 
     

    We earned that win - could have had more, some lovely breaks and passing only to stumble with the final touch / bobble / pass / shot 

    Thought the team played well and for each other. Love White, calm and controlled with some classy passes. Kept things ticking brilliantly. Got clobbered by their aggressive tackling - NML, Barks, Dobs all got hammered heavily too. Maybe legal but at times pretty ugly. Cash deserved his MOTM for a great performance against a bruiser (that was an old fashioned CF/CB personal war) and his goal. Even when he gets “done” his tenacity in recovery is exceptional. McG was a real line leader, Knight is our turbo overboost, never gave them a minute. 
     

    Barks looked really peed off when subbed, first time I’ve seen a bad reaction in this squad .. what was that about I wonder? Still, the South Stand gave him a great salute so hope he’s back on side so to speak. 

    I think barks was frustrated rather than angry. He has just missed a chance and on another day could have been walking off with a couple of goals under his belt.

    I thought his first half performance was crucial in creating an enhanced level of tempo after Tuesday. He was excellent.
