That's what I thought at the time . Their second goal was a foul on Keeley . The officiating for our last three games has been appalling

Thought the officiating was good today to be honest.

For the most part the referee was on our side. The Charlton fans were fuming at him. As Richie said they're just not good enough but with PGMOL and the FA protecting them there's no incentive to improve.

I want to know why Perkins was in the starting XI. And why he came out for the second half. Utterly useless at the best of times, let alone in a crunch game against a physical team.

I thought the same, but I think that Abdoullai was rested today with Tuesday in mind, but will return At Rotherham

To be fair, Dave might be a nice guy, but his questions are usually a random statement without anything to add, then he asks about the injuries for the same players each week.

Easy to pick on Wellens being chippy as he's more direct and abrasive than any manager I can think of at the Os but he's not done anything wrong here. It's not a question, what's he meant to say in response? "And?" So simple to frame that differently, which is Dave's job, at the end of the day.

He was but he's still too easily knocked off the ball . Maybe he should do some weight training and bulk up a bit .

Does he really need to add "what do you think?"

The interview is to hear RWs thoughts, we all probably had the hump at full time but dont take it out on Dave

Yup he'd irritate me too if I'd just got out the back of a tough game and doesn't manage to phrase a simple question correctly. Richie is a smart manager so ask him questions that actually give us an insight into his decisions and tactics.

Oh and while we're at it can we drop the "and the fans?" nonsense at the end? He's not going to say "no they were useless why did they bother coming" is he so just skip it entirely and ask something of value in that time

Agreed, but he couldn’t be much worse than he was in the first half

Having watched to highlights, I can't see a foul for either of Charlton's goals. Their 24 stood his ground and Keeley tried to run through him.

I can`t stand the Charlton manager. He would never had a career if it wasn`t for Bananarama.

Love Dave Victor, but he’s got to do better there. He approaches that question with more conviction and we come away with at least a point.

Was Richie doing an Impersonation of Steve Evans with the excuses?

He’s understandably pissed off after that performance and result.

I’d imagine he’s also pissed off with his team selection and the way we set up.
