    While I agree with you on the need to bring on our own home grown talent, I feel like you’re clutching at straws with this one. Matthews and Oshilaja are bang average players whose right level is probably League 1. I’d be disappointed if either were close to being in our squad

    I think we’d look better with a more mobile striker. Bogle was better than Madine for me but both lack quality.
    Yep, a bit better today and encouraging signs.

    Agree about Madine and Bogle. Madine is a known quantity but Bogle was disappointing today when he came on 🙈

    And we missed Ralls in midfield.

    It was a bit better, but hardly total football.

    I thought all 3 played well today. Matthews career is a big what if for me

    Only if all of the other strikers are injured or suspended!

    He actually did OK today but we need much more from him than that.

    I posted on that other thread in a more positive way the other day after the interview and it wasn’t picked up on, strange that init, just my negative comments jumped on.

    But yeah I enjoyed that game, we played a bit, switched the play side to side, fullbacks got forward, we passed the ball etc, I can accept long throws and occasionally hoofing it when it’s a little more positive like that.

    Generous penalty award and I thought our first was offside, of course we might have had a penalty first-half.

    Still think we were short-handed in mid-field.
    Their first was handball, we should have had a penalty and also possibly a red card for them, but yeah.

    Who mentioned total football? I'm not even talking about the standard of the performance. It was just enjoyable watching a team playing something recognisable as football.

    Surprised he didn’t start his own thread to write that comment.

    Encouraging performance I thought, not going overboard but a positive start.

    I did. You MUST have read it as you mentioned it in YOUR post 🙄

    It was a bit better but not Barcelona. Does that help? 🤷*♂️

    Talking of which, ironically, the moron who abused me at Burnley last season was sitting just in front of me today.

    Still wearing the same Wales track suit top.

    Deeply unpleasant person.

    Just checking with Mike Morris to see if it is OK for me to start a new thread or will I be banned for gross message board misconduct.

    It really is QUITE simple.

    In trying to make a point people often use comparisons, sometimes exaggerated, to make their point.

    (This is really pretty simple grammatical technique and something that you MIGHT have picked up in Primary School)

    Anyway, as you are struggling with this, I am just saying that today was better football but not markedly so.

    So we should be pleased but try to keep this in context.

    😱

    Far more enjoyable to watch today, nice to see us play a bit and definitely looked threatening up front for a change second half.
    Draw fair result but it could’ve gone either way.

    Defence is concerning though, Charlton looked like they were going to score everytime they went forward.

    Although it’s better to see us play with a bit of vigour for a change, we need to remember this was a Charlton team ravaged by injuries as well.

    I think playing a new way with 5 days training isn’t going to see us come out solid defensively, definitely loads to work on I agree but some positives too.

    It wasn’t handball. He played it with his chest.

    I can understand people being positive about some of the football given the dire stuff served up this season by Warnock, but it has to be considered that Charlton were missing nine or ten players and had another carried off.

    The lad who came on for them in midfield during the second half was recalled from a loan spell at Ebbsfleet this week. That puts things in perspective.

    For me, the most refreshing thing was seeing someone other than Warnock on the sidelines. Harris seemed upbeat, which is a start at least. However, I just don’t think this team has anywhere near enough quality to challenge for the play-offs.

    Agree with that. A balanced view of the game. Encouraging signs, but let’s keep some perspective

    Important not to lose away from home in first game and given our poor away form this season. Stoke won today so sets up big game for first home game.

    Noticed Charlton had three of our Academy rejects in their side with their star Welshman International injured? Are we really Capital of Wales? Why sing our National Anthem when the our team and Manager are mainly English?

    I think I need to check what the pub puts in its Coca Cola then. Because it looked like handball the 15 times I saw it.

    First few looks it did look like chest as the angle showed it that way.
