Charlton Life Scapegoat

LenGlover · February 2013

We have to have one it seems.

I reckon it's Waggy at the moment.

Praise is grudging at best and don't people love to point out his perceived shortcomings!

This is a man who works harder than most to make the best of the ability he has, plays anywhere the manager asks him to without complaint and has arguably the most professional attitude to his fitness at the Club.

John Robinson was similar in that he took a season or two to establish himself at Championship level and he ended up doing ok in the end!

Give the bloke a chance! He has the potential to grow with the Club. If he fails it won't be for the lack of trying.

Totally agree. Okay, it wasn't working for him on saturday (not as though he was the only one) and he still never stopped trying. Credit to the lad for his effort at least. We must remember he's playing out of position and imo, has played well since coming back into the team. Still would like to see the club get a natural left sided player in the summer, but until then I'd rather have Waggy with one leg than that useless non-league Kerkar out there..................

Also don't forget that he is a forward being asked to play in the most negative style I have ever witnessed from a Charlton team.

CP has failed in regularly playing someone who is truly awful - CP out

jblockmatt · February 2013

waggys still the best option we have. lets hope satarday we can play a bit more like a home team should do.

Don't worry Len, just wait 'til next week and it'll be another players turn to be scapegoat.

Blimey, normally everything is MY fault !

Dervite, Hamer, Yann... we have plenty of scapegoats.

I wouldnt say dervite is a scapegoat. He was just complete chuff on Saturday

Likewise. Grumbling has ruined our season.
