And so this topsy turvey season continues. It may of course end up going wrong and let's face it the odds are stacked against us. History and previous experience tells us we'll probably miss out on goal difference even if we do get close but it wouldn't be Charlton if it was straight forward or not destined to break your heart !
Frankly it is ridiculous that we are remotely anywhere near a play-off spot let alone be sat in in 5th place. The two teams below us have games in hand but so often it's points on the board that count.
I think that most of us had totally given up after the last two games more as a result of the manner of those defeats as anything else not just the results.
Thankfully Bowyer and the players had other ideas. The manager made 6 changes to the starting eleven and no one could have argued with that.
Clearly it was a much improved and more motivated performance than of late. Can it continue ? Who on earth knows ? We are just as capable of wining all 3 of our remaining games as losing all 3.
Never a dull moment with the Addicks ! Next up Pompey way........anyone care to guess the score on that one !!!
Yeah well it juss gpes to show ow Lee can turn it rahnd when e as to n defeat exenophobia away from our gaff.
ReplyDeleteTo be fair to A2X, the exenophobia is pretty bad down our gaff.
ReplyDeleteI had a pint down the Rose of Denmark last week and could barely hear the barmaid over all the locals banging about how scared they were of exens.
Sven, I assume that a2x is a2c’s algebraic relative! Yeah that “ exenophobia “ is rife dahn our gaff as you say.
DeleteHope is a terrible thing, I'd just resigned myself to the fact Charlton weren't going to make the playoffs. Now I have hope again...
ReplyDeleteAnd the potential for pain. Still, all part of supporting a team like Charlton I guess.
Andy, I’m sure they’ll tease us all the way to the end. It’s written in the stars I’m sure.
DeleteJust leave you with this anecdote about Johnny Jackson. Think it was after Charlton had beaten Peterborough 1-5 in 2010 coming home from the match listening to a Peterborough supporter on a phone in. After berating his team and Fergusson's managerial skills signed off with the statement. That Johnny Jackson ... some player isn't he. See you at Wembley
