[Albion] Charlton Athletic vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

[Mackenzie]

Good run out for the lads, crap result.

hey ho

 

[Gabbafella]

Second half was classic us. Overplay it, create nothing. And those pens were pathetic, almost as pathetic as Pervis diving in their box, should've been booked.

 

[stss30]

Putting him on 5th pen was a stupid decision. He has his good moments, but give him any responsibility and he'll bottle it. Just knew he was going to fluff his lines again.

Exactly, I'm not Solly bashing as think he was one of our best players tonight in open play and other senior players cocked up their pens, but when we had the lead and a 5th penalty to win it, the last player I'd want taking it is Solly March - I'd rather Steele had a go

 

[portslade seagull]

Didn't want to win it anyway

 

[indy3050]

Solly can’t score for shit, why put him on pens? Massive opportunity missed.

 

[London Irish]

really don't understand why we'd put the worst finisher in the team up for the crucial penalty

Yes incredible - one of those where a poll of fans would have made a better decision than our coaches

 

[Swansman]

Continuing our tradition of not giving a single shit about this competition then. Year after year it happens.

Nothing implied it wasn't taken seriously... just not good enough.

 

[zefarelly]

Hilariously predictable.

Solly March, f***ing useless on a stage. Everyone else was shit too . . . From a communication point of view, more rust than a Lancia-Datsun hybrid with positive earth battery!

hopefully the gash is out the way while it doesn't matter. . . Maybe it was deliberate ( I doubt it)

nothing to learn from this, we knew it already

 

[Washie]

People knocking March, he was one of our best players in the 90. Gross however offered nothing

 

[Pavilionaire]

I can't believe someone let Solly take the 5th and decisve penalty. It has to be one of the worst shootout penalties I've ever seen in my life. He simply cannot score, simply shocking.

 

[A1X]

I see the March bashers are out in force, when arguably Gross and Trossard as first team players with proper goal scoring records were more disappointing.

 

[JamesAndTheGiantHead]

 

[BRIGHT ON Q]

Would have done nothing. We created f*** all tonight

They might have got their head on one of the 11 corners maybe

 

[jakarta]

I shall be sporting and say well done Charlton.

Of course when you face a team that actually gives a f*** you will get pasted.

 

[hart's shirt]

According to NASA, Solly March's penalty has just docked with Ulloa's outside the International Space Station.

 

[peterward]

Those players turned up expecting an easy win. f***ing disgusting

Done again by not be able to break down a parked bus. We're OK against teams that have a go, but have no answers for the low block at all.

 

[tigertim68]

This. Too many Solly bashers.

Who actually thought solly would score , the guy just does not know where the back of the net is

 

[Icy Gull]

It was obvious we didn't want to win when March stepped up to take a penalty. I knew it was going over. ( nothing against March personally)

I called Trossard’s miss too, he looked so off his game when he came on

 

[Washie]

They might have got their head on one of the 11 corners maybe

Doubt it, the corners were shocking

 

[Baldseagull]

We all love a bit of Giant killing, well done Charlton.
