Grimes ;-)

Self proclaimed set piece specialist
Didn't he score like two set piece goals in 9 years at the club?

Think we’re actually in a more positive position than this time last year. We’ve finished in the same spot in the table but we’ve got less work to do on the squad and have multiple saleable assets that can help us keep PSR at bay.

Players like Parker, Woodward and hopefully Lissah can all contribute and be part of the squad next season which hopefully saves us a bit of cash too. We need to focus any cash we get on the CB area as well as wingers. Get those right and we’ll look much better next season.

Here's a comment from a Charlton fans forum:

"Swansea finish in 11th, only 8 places above us. But the way they play football means there is an actual chasm between the 2 teams. This team needs some serious reinforcements to get anywhere near the level of Swansea."

That was a free kick that any player would be proud of.
Right in the top corner off the post
There isn't a keeper alive who would have saved that

Happy Days! What a second half performance from the boys and take a bow Idah, Franco, Woodward and Walta!

Great meet up with some of the forum members after the game too.

Haven’t read this thread yet but Fulton changed the tempo of the game when he came on, looking to get the ball forward much quicker. Da iawn butt.

“Only 8 places above us” acting like that isn’t a significant gap

Indeed Fulton was excellent in that second half, he broke the line so many times and got us on the front foot.

He was calm on the ball too, took his time with layoffs even when he was under pressure. Can press and win the ball back. Undoubtedly still useful to us.

Fulton was excellent when he came on. Definitely looked a more positive side when he was introduced. I like Stamenic but sometimes feel like he’s an extra defender when he starts.

Probably Jay's best performance of the season. Stamenic was a little too static in the first half. Noticeable difference 2nd half.
