Amazing what happens when you press high and don’t sit back .
Must continue playing like we did today , much better performance overall
Limited a team who are 4th to very minimal chances and made them look bang average
Thing is he slags of most of the team most of the time yet accuses others of being worse than cant back it up.Just got in from the game and read through the whole thread - this one takes top prize in the "can't praise certain players whatever they do" category. You praise the "nice patient play from Kelly", but just can't bring yourself to acknowledge the part played by Chaplin - the run into space, the turn and the cross.
I do think you've broken your record for slagging off individual players today though - Burge, Mason, Shipley, Hiwula and Chaplin....you must be feeling awful that we won today?

Thing is we are never going to be world beaters, we have players who will make mistakes but today I think we played well.
Believe Charlton had one shot in the first half where Burge made the save to the left side of his goal.
Second half they tried harder bar the goal never really looked that threatening, played the ball mostly in their own half.
First time in a while I wasn't biting my nails worried about an equalizer, just couldn't see them doing it bar a mistake from us.
Luton or Pompey were the best I’ve seen this season. controlled and professional. Charlton were talented but a bit chaotic.Based on the game at the Valley I thought they were the best team I'd seen this season, I thought the way they set up showed us a lot of respect which sugessts that maybe we haven't been as poor as we all think.

Agreed, 1st time in a long time i haven't finished with fingers, took off shoes and socks and started on those nails too..Thing is he slags of most of the team most of the time yet accuses others of being worse than cant back it up.

You support the right team then.Chaotic! I like that!
Play like that I still think we can make the play offs. Might depend on whether Thomas can play for us again.If Luton carry on as at present, I think they may squeeze Sunderland out of the automatics. Can you imagine the meltdown from the Mackems if they don't go up. Consolidation for us this year. PUSB !

Hilarious!! You mention those 3 challenges but not the most obvious red which was the one on Chaplin late in the 2nd half!Ref was utter shite today. They should have had three reds 1. for the tackle on Hiwula on the edge of the box, 2. for the rugby tackle on Clarke-Harris and 3. for the challenge on Sterling. Their goal was also dubious as well. Overall a very poor showing by the officials.
It’s the intent that should lead to the card. I thought that the ref did pretty wellWill watch the replay of the Chaplin one. It didn't look like he touched him at the time without slow motion but haven't seen it back.

Until the Luton and Shrewsbury games, l was very optimistic of ba play off place. Those performances were so poor and flat winning the amount of games needed seemed beyond us. The way we played yesterday against a good third division team has reignited my belief! We need another good run now to get back up there. Harder to do without Thomas and Jones.Love your optimism. Mind you Stranger things have happened. Hope your right though...
I thought the same, the Walsall game was a bit of a freak result and Luton similar to last seasons Accrington home game. As for Shrewsbury we never looked like anything but a 0-0 draw, so a win Boxing Day no matter how it was achieved was essential. I thought we just about deserved it. For tomorrow we have to replace Thomas so if everyone else is fit I’d be tempted to push Sterling further forward and bring Grimmer In maintains our pace on the right. He could bring Brown back and keep Mason wide left and Shipley more central but for me that’s too many changes for one absentee. Not seen enough of Alassini to comment if he’s ready to step into Thomas’s shoes or not.Until the Luton and Shrewsbury games, l was very optimistic of ba play off place.

We will win , keep the faith. Perfect game to start a 3 game winning Xmas/new year run.
Very scrappy game, tight as usual at thericoh, we finally manage to score from a one vs one vs keeper.
We were 17th/18th last time we played them.
14000, 1 nil cov.
