“I think we should have won,” explained the caretaker Addicks boss.
“Whatever game we go to, we’ll be looking to win. Am I happy with a point? Not really. We had enough chances to win the game. There was only going to be one team that was going to win it in the second-half and that was going to be us. A point is better than nothing but I’m disappointed to be honest.
“First-half I thought we were sloppy. They were first to everything, won every second ball. We didn’t move the ball quick enough. I thought that we were not the same side first-half. Second-half, we stepped it up again, created a few chances and on another day, we would have won that game.
“Overall, disappointed to be leaving with just a point. It makes Tuesday’s game (at AFC Wimbledon) even more important, to go and win there.”
Am I the only one that thought Charlton were poor? Slocombe made 2 good saves, but they were more for the cameras than anything else, he could have saved them a lot less dramatically, and a goalmouth scramble. I honestly don't remember anyone from their team standing out. If I didn't know what the league table looked like I wouldn't have placed them anywhere other than mid table

If I didn't know what the league table looked like I wouldn't have placed them anywhere other than mid table I think his first half analysis was about right, we were first to the ball most of the time and won the second balls. We lost our impetus a bit when Sercs went off, but that's not surprising. I can see where he is coming from about the second half, we didn't really look a massive threat ourselves and they were looking to attack with Slocombe pulling off a couple of decent saves, but at the same time, strangely, I never actually felt like we were in any real danger or under sustained pressure. I think, fortunately, we caught them on an off day. Kaikai looked decent and turned Clarke inside out on a few occasions, before being subbed off. The scorer Reeves looked neat and tidy, but apart from that nobody really stood out for me on the day for them. It's a strange division this season with Blackburn, Wigan and Shrewsbury head and shoulders above the rest and everyone else a much of muchness. With a few decent signings, hopefully, in the summer, I'm looking forward to what we can produce next season.

They did come close but I never felt like it was sustained pressure. To say Slocombe's saves were for the camera is hash on Slocs. That one curling right in the too corner where he clawed his hand's to it was a great save!

He should be well ashamed. His team were the only ones for yonks that have been second to the ball against us.

Is Lee Bowyer really a manager? I guess he’s had to stop fighting his own players and going out drinking beating up students

They were saves seen up and down the football ladder every week. We would have all been hugely disappointed if Slocombe had been beaten by those shots.

That one curling right in the too corner where he clawed his hand's to it was a great save! I'll concede to that one, that was flying into the top corner, the second one was far more dramatic than it had to be. Slocombe would have been motm had it have not been for that deflection, he was solid and was everything a keeper should be today, commanded the box, strong, decisive. And De Gea said after the United City game that he was inspired by Slocs performance and that was what gave him the courage to tip that shot over from Aguero.

Sercombe makes things happen Clarke, more defensive but works well with sercs and has a shot on him Ellis has shown what he can do, hopefully he maintains his exceptional work rate Bennett has been a godsend so far. And still the best manager in the lower divisions at the helm. Off the pitch is where our problems will lay, income, stadium, budgets, the list goes on. And if we do push on I hope these things don't hold us back.

And if we do push on I hope these things don't hold us back. i still think we’re 4 quality players away from challenging 2 players that would cut it in championship,Bennett and sercombe 2 more consistent midfielders 1 cb alongside broadbent and a good striker,we don’t take our chances and when a decent cross comes over there is nobody in there in the right position Gaffney is turning into a donkey,he was my favourite forward but lost it massively

Can we amend the title of thread please?
Just knock off the last four digits, because that's more in line with what Lee Bowyer is talking out of.
Draw was a fair result, a neutral would be satisfied with that in an entertaining match..

If we want to make that next step we will probably have to add a few quality additions. We have a good young manager and staff around him to improve the current group and with the right additions in the summer, could be in for an exiting 18/19 season. The key to our longer term future is obviously the new stadium, hopefully we will hear some positive news in the near future and we can kick on with it.

Is Lee Bowyer really a manager? I guess he’s had to stop fighting his own players and going out drinking beating up students I’m judging by his time as a player that it’ll go tits up sooner or later as a manager and he won’t be able to turn it around. New manager bounce first few games but after that ? We’ll see. Never struck me as management material but Charlton are a basket case of a club with stupid owners still burning ridiculous amounts of parachute money.

I thought Charlton were decent and with the side we had out (and the subs we had to make) it was a good point for us. Bennett got mom but Reeves was the best player on the pitch.

Didnt think Charlton were as good as I thought they were gonna be. They did have a couple of decent players on the ball namely Reeves. They did put a few balls into the box first half which if they had someone on the end of would’ve punished us. We did live life close to the edge on occasion, I didn’t think people can complain about the scumbag bowyer saying he’s disappointed they didn’t win. Enjoyed the game though.
