City today faced the team bottom of the Championship and with the worst record of conceding goals in the Championship.
2points dropped and play-offs even further away.
FOR ME THIS IS JUST NOT GOOD ENOUGH

City went in to this game looking for their 3rd away win on the trott and were facing a Charlton side on a terrible run which has seen them now plunge to the bottom of the Championship, surely nothing less than 3pts today for the Bluebirds.
City started brightly with attacking football, with Charlton having to defend and try and hit us on counter attacks.
Our best chance was in the 32nd minute when Ralls hit the post.
For the rest of the first half we huffed and puffed.
Half-time Charlton 0 City 0
Fabio had been taken off at half-time and replaced by Peltier.
City came out and took the game to Charlton and attacked and attacked with Pilkington creating a few good chances.
