Three-nil, normal (hopeless) service has been resumed... *sob*

Same goes for Boro

I fear that puts Boro in the relegation zone

Charlton have conceded again, final score a useless 4-1 *sobs some more*

Well at least Charlton managed to score a goal

We couldn't even do that - and had someone sent off

BUT - we've escaped the relegation zone for the moment 'cos of Stoke losing

A Charlton goal is a rare thing indeed...

I *think* Chelsea's winner has kept Boro out of the relegation zone for now. Which at least is something for you...

edit : you spotted it before me Babybird2!

Until Spurs win/draw tomorrow anyhow

just for the day, join ChevvyChev in supporting Pompey

Unfortunately I'm a Spurs supporter too!!!

2nd team Reading though - and they're doing quite well!!

Yeh come be a Pompey supporter...officially the loudest supporters in the Premiership
Tomorrow will be interesting...I wonder if the racist Spurs fans will be back? I expect their rather rude comments about Judas won't be mentioned this time though...!

EDIT: Sorry, on re-reading that sounds more aggressive than I intended it!! No offense to all the Spurs fans on here who I'm sure are lovely!! (Every club has a minority of bad fans who bring down the tone sometimes eh?!)

I take it that Babybird2 is a Boro supporter as well? Are there any other Boro fans around? (I'm not reading all 188 pages to find out!).

Am feeling a bit sad because we haven't won for ages (except for the FA cup match against non-league Barrow - which I'm not sure really counts). I'm not particularly hopeful about Portsmouth beating Spurs tomorrow either...

I don't think there are many people who are lol...but... ...we can play really well when we're on form (whether or not that's tomorrow or not remains to be seen!)...it's our consistency that lets us down a lot that and our stupidly rubbish goal difference!!

Charlton are at least consistent - consistently dreadful, awful and useless *sobs even more*

Ah, hello fellow Reading supporter

And into the relegation zone we go.

At least we're top in that

Yep, and at least all of the bottom five are level on points. Don't fancy our chances against Chelsea on Weds though - our goal difference still hasn't recovered from our last match against them.

Please can we win sometime (soon!)... ten games is a long time

Pleased Pompey managed to grab a point to boost us a bit...at least for now!

There was a poll on the Charlton Athletic website last night, to do with which area you thought Charlton needed to strengthen.
The options were : attack, midfield, defence and 'other'.

I put the word 'everything' in the 'other' box...

*sobs some more*

It's ok Barry, Charlton will win lots of games when they're in league one next season

Same goes for Boro... in the Championship

Hope so...



All the uncertainty amongst players like Downing isn't doing Boro any good : once we're the other side of the transfer window, they may well improve.

Downing has been told he's not going anywhere, I reckon if he really starts working at it and gets us to a decent place in the table we'll let him go in the summer if someone (i.e. Spurs) offers enough money for him. I wish he didn't want to go, but I don't blame him, I wish him well

I just wish we could score more goals and concede fewer of them

I have the same feeling about Charlton...

And I wish our players didn't keep getting injured - we lost two of our midfielders in the game against the Mackems.

Hopefully our luck will turn soon and the players will also get it together. The bottom of the league is pretty tight so one win could take us up to around 12-14th and two wins could take us even higher (although, of course, the same goes for everyone else that's down the bottom with us.). Don't think a win is likely tomorrow mind....

It's next week, not tomorrow But we'll still lose

And me about Pompey...our g/d is rediculous!!

It's FA Cup weekend again. And none of my teams are in it

Birmingham could leapfrog Reading today if they beat Blackpool in the game that was postponed a few weeks ago...

Also be keeping an eye on how Wolves do against Middlesbrough as Reading play them in midweek...

Car Expert

ohhhh dearrr, pompey not looking good not happy...what are we doing?!

You're doing much better than we are in the league, so you've still got things to about.

Boro have won today but we still haven't won in the league for ten games. You don't need to be as concerned as us yet.

yeh I know just disappointing, when I've seen how well they can play and then they just bimble about and make stupid mistakes lol, I know every team has that, but just so frustrating lol...ah well, I'm having dinner with the FA Cup next weekend, so I'll get a chance to see it one last time haha
Congrats on your win

Birmingham lost today

*boo hoo*

*sob, sob, sob*

Thanks Flossie - sadly, it looks like I only have one thing to look forward to with Charlton now - relegation.

*waaaaaahhhhhhhh *

Reading win, Leyton Orient win, Charlton win. Happy days!

Car Expert

Can you work your magic and get us a Boro win?

Preferably several wins so that we don't go down.

Yay!

Charlton beat Crystal Palace!

Hmmm , so they did. That will upset my son, who having been born in Mayday Hospital, Croydon still supports Crystal Palace, though we moved north from Selsdon when he was 9.

Leeds beat Sarfend , and Tranmere beat Stockport . Leeds and Tranmere are immediatley below the play off places now

Who on earth would want to spoil a lovely red football shirt by putting blue stripes down it...

Pompey lost AGAIN. now there's a shocker...althugh I suppose we did play a little bit better than the other day, but only a litttle bit! hurumph.

Bit worried about Pompey, they appear (much like Boro) to be in a bit of a tailspin...

Boro have just conceded. Doubt we'll be able to pick up a point today.

Yes me too although we're a game in hand, we're sliding sliding sliding down that table...meh

Normal service has been resumed. Conceded in the 90th minute to lose 2-1.

Pompey lost too not looking good!

We're about to lose again. They might as well put us out of our misery now and relegate us. Not a happy bunny...

2-0

Can you pass the magic trick on to Boro please?

I thought Boro were going to win for most of their match today...

I know, but.... - and this has be the problem all season. If games only lasted 80 minutes then we'd been in the top half.
