Fulham all over us. We haven't had a shot. Early goal killed us. Lots of fouls against us ref not seeing. We looked doomed on that half...and that's the first time I've really thought that. Hope 2nd half is better. Huge following here and they will be kicking this way

Teams just out warming up

A visit to a bigger ground to see a bigger team is always going to be attractive, the fans will make the effort. Us? We only played Forest.

Agreed. We looked like a team that hadn't won in weeks, lacked the confidence to have a go at Cardiff. We should have been buoyant from the Forest game where it seemed we did most things right, including coming back from behind to win the game. Today we were back to hit and hope and mostly play head tennis. I never seen the ball out of play for so much of the game, stop start all game. I guess Cardiff did a job on us, we didn't get to play. Relatively early goal and they shut up shop, didn't bother attacking us and probably scored with their only shots on target(?). I'm disappointed, Cardiff were poor and we couldn't score against them. I wouldn't want any of their players and I can't see them getting promoted on that showing at all. As for our players, they pretty much all had a poor game. They can play much better than this. Yes we missed Korey, Freeman was poor wanting too many touches and inviting players onto him hoping to beat them with a skilful flick which wasn't happening.

Apologies if this has already been mentioned (I haven't read all through this thread) but there's a lot to be said for the saying 'if something appears to be too good to be true then it probably is'.

We missed the first 30 mins and the goal..heard it as we were running from the coach but hopefully we get a result here after the day we've had!

Just in. Heard the goal as we ran from coach

32 mins away says my phone...not allowing for traffic. Gawd knows how we getting home!!!

Just reached Kent!

Coach has just had the Lee J news...its gone into meltdown. People Now want to jump off the coach!!!!

We are moving!!!!

Yet another plan. Someone spoke to a coach driver at the services earlier. He promised to drop his people at Gatwick and come back for us which he has done...fair play. He is nothing to do with City or anything. We have just boarded.not moving yet. This driver obviously not expecting to go to Charlton so trying to look up a route on his phone!!!!

Still waiting. Someone grabbed RAC bloke to have a look. He can't do anything. Apparently you cannot get breakdown cover for coaches, they all have to mechanic themselves. Hopefully returning coach should be here soon, but hearing traffic building near ground

There were 5 full sized Peter Carol coaches and one smaller Peter carol coach...and just one Eastville coach.

That's what the driver told the steward yes. No breakdown. I think they must use their own mechanics. Someone tried to get AA m a n and even the traffic police here at the devices to help and they wouldn't touch it.

Apparently the jump leads wouldn't have taken coach to coach voltage anyway. Still sat here. Unsure if a new coach being sent up now..Maybe only a mechanic so we got this coach back too. Almost no info being given. Very poor. Not stewards fault but feel we are just cut adrift from the club. Lady was thinking about hiring taxis but seems like club won't fund this. Eastville say they have no breakdown cover

Yes Eastville. It had problems before we left Bristol but driver instead of calling it in carried on. Stopped at services now broken down. Apparently coach 2 had dropped at Charlton and on way back to us. Will take hour to get to us and then we will have that hour journey ourselves. Coach driving up from Bristol to get us after the match. Obviously it's all Lee Johnsons fault!!!!

Battery is flat after driver left the lights on. Jump leads fell apart. Eastville coach. All other coaches have left us. One is coming back and taking us. Hour there, hour back and then another hour to take us there. Looking at arriving at 4pm at best. Another coach coming from Bristol to take us home after

Our coach broken down in services! Trying to jump start it with another coach. Bloody hell!!!!! We are an hour away from the ground

How times have changed...This woman is on her way to Charlton!

This is dire. No movement no passion. As bad a first half as I've seen in a long time. The next 45 will have to be a huge improvement as this isn't good enough to sustain Championship football

Going back to Kodjia, before he scored he had missed another excellent chance and it went behind for a goal kick. As the others trotted back to the half way line Kodjia remained for a few moments on his own and seemed to put his hands together and looked to the sky. Whatever he said, and whoever he asked he was rewarded. Either that or the roar of support he got from 5000+ City fans spurred him on.

The Red Army is advancing, approaching Gloucester anyway!
