A lot of fantastic, reasoned points have been made recently in relation to the current situation.
It is clear that we have to ensure the club know exactly how we, the supporters, feel.
Due to sheer volumes, a lot of what has been posted will sadly not be seen by those who matter. I will sticky this thread in the knowledge it will be noticed.
Please review what you have posted previously, and try in no more than a paragraph or two to point your point forward articulately. Any childish abuse will be deleted. If you can't think of anything to say, simply add your name if you wish to.
thank you

The last time I put my name to anything I felt more passionate about than this, I voted for "The Valley Party"
I want my Charlton back.

Being new to this place, I wanna point out that I'm not someone who's been wanting Pardew out for ages. But after a steady steady slide, 3 soft goals yesterday really turned my opinion.
If i have finally turned, then there really can't be many left who haven't.
But this season has to be rescued while it still can be. Christ, it sounds ridiculous but with a run the play offs are still very much in play.
But what we have at the moment is a team sinking at an alarming rate. It has nothing, it is a shell of a team. It has no heart, no backbone, no creativity and no goals. Its as much relegation material as Derby was in the Prem last year.
It is his team, he has put this together, and he still has not a clue on how to set it out correctly to win games in this division.
We simply cannot sit back and let it happen.
Enough is enough, Pards out, but good luck elsewhere. Sometimes things just don't work out!
I don't think everything has totally been his fault but that, in the end, isn't what counts. If the ship has a problem with it’s rudder and the helmsman isn't strong enough to steer it away from the rocks, its time to replace him with somebody who can.
He hasnt uncrossed his arms from the touchline all season and doesnt have a plan let alone plan B.
Midfielders on the wrong wings, supposed English u21 players (Did he ever watch Cranie play before he agreed to play him every minute of every game no matter how dog awful he plays?) persisting with Youga, constant pumping the ball up field with no other clue, not having the balls to blame himself and realise his team selection is shit but finding any other excuse.
He will drag this club down before we know it. Les and Dowie (Although I would have sacked ID for the shit he bought, not results) were not given nowhere near as long as this Palace mug.
He won 5 Premier games out of 18 (which could also be relegation form) and has been given us two seasons of a laidback attitude and inept perfomances
I was excited by his appointment but it has since been downhill virtually all the way. He built the team and it has become utterly dysfunctional. It is getting worse and it is clear he doesn't know what has gone wrong,let alone how to fix it.
We could still make the play-offs but we need to go on a run and that's clearly not going to happen under the current regime: it's now almost a year since we managed to get six points from two consecutive games. The rare step forward is inevitably followed immediately by two steps backwards.
Relegation looms and anyone who has seen the last few games would say that even if we were not currently in the bottom three : it is a fact not based on our position in the table but on what we have seen going on out on the pitch.
He can't get the best out of the players in terms of their undeniable footballing skills and he can't seem to inspire them to play with the passion we have always associated with CAFC.
Something is rotten to the core and to keep him simply because we can't afford to get rid of him would be the worst reason of all not to bite the bullet.
He's lost 95 per cent of the fans. And it would appear from the way we are playing that he's lost the dressing room.
Change now, sooner rather than later while there is still time to rescue the season.
I'd be really disappointed to see our club slowly disintegrating on the pitch but I am in shock at how quickly it seems to be happening.
Far too many excuses, always has something to say about key players missing, or referees, or a bit of luck.
There's enough talent here for mid table.
Varney scored around 8 goals last season, and only started around half our games, he looks like he'll struggle to score half that at the moment.
This has happened off the top off my head a minimum of 8 times in the past 15 months

Pards has had nearly two years now and the club and fans have been very patient.
He came with a good CV and I put my trust in him.
I don't think he knows what to do next or where things are going wrong.
I think he's lost the dressing room, certainly the fans and quite probably a good % of those on The Board.
Ramos arrived at Spurs with a good CV but he was never going to turn it round at Spurs. Their board realised that just in time.
Fall on your sword Mr Pardew.
Pardew was unable to turn around the mess left behind by Dowie/Reed when he was appointed in December 2006 - give the new guy a fighting chance to sort out this under-performing squad & assess what can/cannot be done in the January transfer window.
No more dithering - time to act!!
If he dont walk by Wednesday SACK HIM.
Sorry Pards, but its time to go.
