I am HUGELY encouraged by this....

Re: CHARLTON ATHLETIC v CARDIFF CITY. Match thread
Excellent game to be fair. Both sides going for the win.
Important we get something tho for morale.

Re: CHARLTON ATHLETIC v CARDIFF CITY. Match thread
So this is what football is supposed to feel like. I remember this.

Re: CHARLTON ATHLETIC v CARDIFF CITY. Match thread
I just saw a player chest it down and take control of the ball on the deck. SHOCK and AWE!

Re: FT: CHARLTON ATHLETIC 2 - 2 CARDIFF CITY. Match thread
Pretty good - Didn't cringe once watching this - we looked like 'normal' football team for once.

Re: FT: CHARLTON ATHLETIC 2 - 2 CARDIFF CITY. Match thread
Should have won that, but a good game and a decent start for Harris. Plenty to smile about

Absolutely agree.....great to see......good half time.....Gallagher and Mathews not so effective seond half. Bodes well for the future....however your views it was SO much better than Warnock recent games.

Enjoyed that. Entertaining game with some encouraging and some alarming moments.

End to end. A good game to watch. Felt we could have nicked that.

Re: FT: CHARLTON ATHLETIC 2 - 2 CARDIFF CITY. Match thread
Only 23 shots though, 12 short :hehe:
All in All, very encouraging and Harris will be pleased no doubt.
Good point City but more importantly, good performance.
:ayatollah:

Re: FT: CHARLTON 2 - 2 CARDIFF CITY. Match thread
Didn't lose away from home and the players' heads didn't drop after being sucker punched just before the break. Makes you wonder what Harris said at half-time.
Considering how woeful our away form has been this season, I'll take this.

Re: FT: CHARLTON 2 - 2 CARDIFF CITY. Match thread
On my way back from the match, probably the most enjoyable game performance wise in a long time.
I think we’d look better with a more mobile striker. Bogle was better than Madine for me but both lack quality.

Re: FT: CHARLTON 2 - 2 CARDIFF CITY. Match thread
I know it's only one game but that should put to bed any idea that Harris is Warnock 2.0.

Re: FT: CHARLTON 2 - 2 CARDIFF CITY. Match thread
Haven't read the whole thread but wasn't impressed with Mr. Bond.
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.

He made a couple of proactive substitutions as well, instead of waiting until 10 minutes to go.

We usually are when Joe Ralls doesn't play.

Re: FT: CHARLTON 2 - 2 CARDIFF CITY. Match thread
Bennett rightly gets a lot of stick but was crucial in setting up both goals today

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

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.

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.

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.
