We could really do with a cup run to boost morale a bit but a really tough draw given your record against League One teams this season, can see you winning again
We actually have a squad I would ordinarily expect, not hope, to finish in the top 6 but it's Charlton and we've been perennially underperforming for years now. We have the 4th biggest budget in the league and asides from Birmingham, I don't particularly look at another squad in the league and...
I think you've nailed it and it explains why we were able to beat Birmingham but have struggled more against lower sides in the league. I don't particularly think Leaburn is great in that specific role either. We have Kanu, who's out injured at the moment, who is perfect for it. The football has...
We are pretty pants (in general) but especially away from home. Leaburn is back in the side and has a few goals in the cup competitions. Again, our weakness is creativity, we play two pressing midfielders in attacking midfield but neither have any attacking ability if they do win the ball on the...
All we ever have to look forward to these days is a decent away day and Southend is exactly that. They've managed to get their away end ready in time to give us 2000 tickets. Hoping for a decent run but we inevitably crash out to a league one side in round 2
I do think Wrexham will keep securing the funds they need to progress through the leagues although at the championship that will require a pretty steep hike.
Chelsea u21s had a player they signed for £17 million on a 7 year contract playing for them last night. Just goes to show the disparity in money between the levels that they can afford to take such a punt. He was no better than any of our youngsters that were playing on the night
That's the reason I was unsure on the offside. Not sure if it's deliberately played rather than just being blocked off him. Either way it was poor defending in the first place to let the chance arise
The worst thing is we get a shot off after the first handball that looks like it's going in which is stopped by Dobson's raised arm on its way to goal so you could have had your pick of two blatant penalties in the space of 2 seconds.
Apparently their second goal was offside too although I'm...
Yeah not sure Wrexham can say they deserved a win but did think they managed the game really well when they did have the lead, right up until a stupid handball. Haven’t seen it back properly but really think Mannion should have saved their first too. Like you said, apart from Lee smashing the...
A penalty to paper over the cracks. Was definitely a pen was right behind it. We are such a nothing team, Jones really needs to sort out our creativity issues or it’ll be another season of mediocrity. I think Wrexham edged the game but wouldn’t go as far as saying they deserved a win. I know...
I think Mark Goldbridge is just an internet persona made by him. In reality he’s a Forest fan called Brent. Charlton have signed him up to try and attract younger fans to the club, which isn’t the worst thing.
Ok. Given 15 years in the national league and having not played at the valley since the 80s, I thought it'd be quite an attractive game but forgot about the massive game midweek.
We have but I don't think it's from actual Charlton fans. I can't imagine the fans who haven't been to a game for a while and turn out for the big games are any more bothered by Wrexham than they are Birmingham. I'd imagine it's a bunch of tourists and young locals who support other teams...
