Crowd 7
Ref 4
Charlton 6

Smith 6 not a great deal to do. Don't think it was a goal.

J. Clarke 5 steady before injury.
Lockyer 4 poor first half display.
Broadbent 6 solid debut his day was made a lot easier with the sending off.
Brown 3 shocking delivery must of wasted 7 or 8 crosses.

Sercombe 7 MOTM tidy and mobile a few long range efforts.
Lines 5 show pony performance we needed more. Corners were poor.
O. Clarke 5 not dominant enough

Bodin 4 very poor game no great moments.
Harrison 4 poor performance we needed more. No service.
Sinclair 6 had his hands full, stuck to his task.

Subs: Nichols 6 no service worked hard.
Broom 5 looked bright
Gaffney 5 no service worked hard.

Crowd 7 mugged at Charlton again
Ref 3 incompetent along with the Lino!
Charlton 6 fair play ground it out good game management to get win with 10 men. They were helped massively by our inability to produce in the final third.

Smith 6 solid
Clarke J 5 hardly had a chance to get his shirt sweaty
Brown 3 had plenty of opportunities to deliver a decent cross, didn't manage it.
Lockyer 4 some good passes to the bloke in row K of the East stand
Broadbent 6 MOTM showed up well in difficult debut
Sinclair 5 switched roles after 15 minutes, industrious but ultimately ineffective in both of them.
Clarke O 5 laboured
Lines 5 not at the races
Sercombe 6 steady debut, couple of hopeful unconvincing pops at goal
Bodin 3 invisible
Harrison 4 never a threat

Nichols 3 invisible no.2 .. swear we put his number up after 15 mins noticed he was playing about an hour into the game.
Broom 5.5 offered slightly more than Browner had from the left.
Gaffney 5 effort but no cutting edge.

Crowd 7 ...2174 Gasheads turned up, shame their team did not.
Ref 3 got a decision right after six minutes, realised he'd sent a home player off and stopped giving decisions our way from then on. Luckily our lads did not show enough passion or aggression for him to get the opportunity to even up the numbers.
Charlton 6 wasn't their fault we were rubbish and they had to compensate for being down to ten men.

Disappointingly ineffective start to the campaign.
Still convinced I saw a nil nil draw...but at least the linesman should never have to buy a drink in SE7 for a few years!

Crowd
- 4 great numbers and good start but some of the abuse some individuals  aim at our team is watering me off

Sean,

I can honestly put this down to a small clique who started this off and it's the reason that I removed myself from every rovers related Facebook page, apart from tote end old boys
I dread to think what our fan base will be like when our generation is no longer able to go. It angers me and I've been very close to honestly hurting one guy.
When you hear and see comments saying they wish a career ending injury on one of our players then it's more than abuse, it's sick.
In my area it's Ellis who gets it and I blocked ALL of them.
Personally, I may have my own thoughts but I will NEVER boo or abuse one of our own players, NEVER EVER. Christ, I never even have Riordan any stick.
We are not what we once were mate and the sad truth is we no longer hold the moral high ground when talking of the Reds. There is now no difference at all and, if anything, things are getting better down the road
