How can we trust him with the task of building a team to challenge next season?
We have no choice, he is worse than Parkinson, he doesn't know what to do.
Powell must be sacked and a good quality, experienced manager brought in.
I know all you silly "Sir Chris Powell" mob will try to slaughter me but I really don't care about any of you, Powell is making our club a joke and he must be sacked before relegation becomes a real possibilty.

Agreed, Powell out!
I suspect The lure of managing his old club clouded his judgement and tempted him to run before he could walk.
We, the club, have a decision to make - stick with him, support him and hope he comes good OR replace with an experienced manager.... but remember, an experienced manager is not the only ingredient to get a result on the pitch. As they say, you cannot polish a turd. You can try, I guess, but things get sticky, smelly and you end up regretting it.
Chris Powell is a top guy, loved by us all - but is he the person to take us back to where we belong. If not, is it his fault?
Think we will end up around 17th.
I want a refund, £25 what a joke! I actually had more fun at welling united.
Personally I thought sacking Parky was a mistake and then bringing in a nice rookie manager was a big, big gamble - the fact that he's our hero shouldn't have weighed as much as it seemed to.
This is a truly dreadful, atrocious run of results - oh for the heady days of being an inconsistent 5th.
There should be some very embarrassed people on this site who slagged Parkinson off constantly and called for his head even during last season.
Hmmmm. Not turning out so great under a new bloke is it?
Did Parkinson ever lose 6 out of 7 matches in L1? Did we ever go 7 without a win under him? Thought not.
That's not going to happen, So we have to keep backing him, even though we dont like what we are seeing/hearing
Because a is not working!
100% spot on
Powell may well end up a success at Charlton, but not this season. Has been unlucky with injuries etc but has had no impact on the organisation of the defence, which as a defender you would have thought would be his first priority!!!
Looks like we'll be spending more seasons this decade in the 3rd Division than we did in the 70s!!!
4 and a half years of suffering & no end in sight!
I definitely agree that Parky was no where near as bad as some made out and did some good things for this football club but that doesn't necessarily mean he was the right man for the job.
Warnock is a proper manager but he is not in our league, Parkinson was a better bet than Powell though, at least Parkinson had a few years under his belt in this league and knew the score.

Parky had clearly lost the ability to generate a performance out of the team - bear in mind that his last three matches saw a capitulation against Swindon who were a goal down and away from home, and two draws against teams who had a player sent off. Prior to that we experienced a series of joyless performances where teams that had been set up to play with the ball to their feet were forced to chase long balls and aimless tactics. And I doubt that Parky is laughing at our plight, he doesn't seem that kind of bloke.
Let's not start re-writing history.
Powell is two months into his first managerial job and we have to persevere with him. The team/squad is going to have to undergo major surgery at the end of the season, other than Solly/Jenkinson the entire defence is going to have to be changed and we need that elusive central midfielder.
Let's see how ambitious our new owners are.
