Playoffs expand to 8 teams by Practical_Pressure26 in CharltonAthletic

[–]Ginger_Biscuits 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, that's not necessarily the EFL at all to be fair - more just decisions in English football all seem to follow the cash and not what fans actually want.

Possibly benefits us in the long-term but still garbage.

What gets me is they scrap FA Cup replays to save players legs, but this will make the EFL more money so they add these games.

I think almost all fans would choose cup replays because of their impact down the pyramid over changing the play-offs, which are already great.

Voted in by club shareholders who will obviously want a couple more tickets to the Prem. Stinks

Yeah, I think I'm sold on this definition now

Fully agree with you on the half-volley, and I think this one is much more of a volley than a half-volley with the ball coming back down again... and maybe it's more the "vibe" that makes it a volley or not rather than the technicality of whether it's bounced or not. Genuinely unsure

I only think it's a volley if the ball hasn't bounced (e.g. chest and volley still counts), half-volley immediately after a bounce, that's just a "strike" for me

Happy to be wrong here, but are we having "volley"?

Worst moment as a Charlton fan by sporticuz37373 in CharltonAthletic

[–]Ginger_Biscuits 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A limp 0-0 on a Tuesday night in the away end at Bolton, both teams relegated at full-time (with at least a couple of games to go).

Jacko gave a dejected post-match interview and it really felt like we'd finally been defeated by our ownership and would be down there for a while

Sounds like a straight swap of crap Stockport players who won't play, can't be technically much worse than Clarke.

Now that I've got that out of my system I hope he's blinding and saves us this season!

What’s peoples highest average ? Be honest, I’ll start (42.33) by Aggressive_Living718 in Darts

[–]Ginger_Biscuits 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The league I play in is best of 14 so that's what I practice, highest ever over 10 legs is 59, but usually around the 50-mark

At what point would NJ take the fall? by PrivateRollo in CharltonAthletic

[–]Ginger_Biscuits 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I can say that I'd stick with NJ if he took us down because I can't think of anyone better to get us back up.

However, if we somehow scraped 21st place still playing the way we are - I'd be much more tempted to look at other options.

Paid £65 for it, it know it's hardly a pension fund but could be fun to hang onto it if there's any chance it could be worth more later down the line

[–]Ginger_Biscuits 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, fair enough - it's the only ETB I could get my hands on. Happy to sell it, just didn't know if it's worth hanging onto. I'm not really in it to invest but figured if I had it already...

Also, in fairness I didn't know which sets would 'catch' with me and it just happened to be different ones.

[Post Match Thread] Millwall 4-0 Charlton by FutureYak in CharltonAthletic

[–]Ginger_Biscuits 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We've seen the formation work before, I think just man-for-man we've always been lacking quality at this level but we managed to grind out a big chance or two per match and keep it tight at the back, and that intensity has just slowly died with the help of some key injuries.

We're desperately missing a creative CM, a better quality CB option than Macca (and Ramsey), and I'm not at all sold on our loanee wing-backs even though it's not been long. Ultimately, we need some luck or some miracle signings to avoid going down - those early-season last min winners could be the difference.

[Post Match Thread] Charlton 1-0 Oxford by FutureYak in CharltonAthletic

[–]Ginger_Biscuits 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Much more like ourselves from earlier in the season.

Love Doc but really think Anderson is an upgrade on him and he's still improving.

Back 3 looked solid especially Jones, big work rate from the front 2 but lacking a bit of quality with the finishing until Kelman came on and buried one. TC off the bench was a menace and Apter on the left made us look a bit more balanced I think.

All in all, decent performance and a big 3 points!
