Milton Keynes 1 Charlton Athletic 1
I can only comment from what I listened to on the streaming Radio Kent commentary last night. As suspected, Milton Keynes set themselves up to make it difficult for us to play our natural game, and from the sounds of it we were second best throughout the first half, with MK Dons going in 1-0 up at half time (all be it through the aid of a spot kick).
However, once again, the 'patient approach' that Sir Chris keeps mentioning paid dividends. (Coupled with I would guess a good half time team talk).
With Green coming on for Wagstaff in the 67th minute and Kermorgant for Hayes a few minutes later, listening, it seemed Charlton were over the course of the half getting more and more back into the match and creating problems for Milton Keynes in their final third. In fact it was only four minutes after the introduction of Kermorant that we found the net with Green delivering the cross that gave the Frenchman his first goal for the Addicks.
All in all a good nights work against one of the better teams in the division.
I always feel that as you enter October you begin to get a better picture of how the table is going to pan out come the end of the season. I'm sure most other Charlton supporters would agree that to be going into October top of the table AND unbeaten is both fantastic and something that was not anticipated.
Just the little matter of Bramell Lane to negotiate next.
