#bhafc have quality in their ranks now, but also resolve. Don't know when they are beaten.

2-2 full time. Point gained in extra time rather than two dropped.

Yep, but prior to kick off, if you'd offered me a 2-2 draw I wouldn't have taken it....

I haven't checked this but is our leading scorer a defender?

 

[Kosmonaut]

Nice one Hyypia encouraging everyone up for that final corner and it payed off!

 

[Superphil]

We just couldn't have lost on Tonys day

 

[seagullsovergrimsby]

Gap widens to 6 between us and Forest.

Wow! Couldn't be there today. When was the last time we had a central defender score out only two goals in a game? My memory is failing me.

Fu** sake what a chance they had 5 shots totally 2 scores!! Horrible numbers..... posession 66-34

The Jestermen pick up their first point of the season at St James's Park

Something like 41 games to go right?

Decent result in the end. Charlton are clearly a pretty good side this season, and although we perhaps should have won with the % of possession we had I still think we are a work in progress.

It might be a cliché but with so many new faces it will take a bit of time for them all to get to know each other and used to Sammi's set up. I think with our approach this season it does appear we will concede a few more goals, but I do think we have more attacking options, although being completely greedy I would still like a big centre forward on our books.

More positives though than minuses.

 

[Superphil]

Just trying to think how many game last season were as entertaining

 

[Seagull58]

I hope Dunk got MoM

 

[Del Fenner]

Well played Brighton!

 

[portslade seagull]

That makes Dunky the top scorer

JFC should be dropped in the next match. Think he's the weakest link.

Forest always like to rack up the points early on and then blow it in April We'll catch them up

 

[shaunslats]

I hope Dunk got MoM

think Tex got it

 

[peterward]

1 point. That'll do.

1 is better than 0, but on balance of play/possession, feels like 2 points lost

with Bolton and now charlton, 3 shots on target, 3 goals, against our many shots and dominating of possession, need to sort that out asap, cant keep gifting goals as away teams will park the bus.

The international break comes at a good time for us, gives us a chance to bed in the new players even though some will be away. Time for Hyypia to earn his corn, to put his stamp on the team.
