"The guy is an average / poor manager.
A few indisputable facts about Powell's management:
1. He played Pritchard on the right this season, having released Wagstaff & ignored Green and Harriott.
2. He signed Sordell.
3. His team cannot thread a pass, create a passing movement, or string a passage of play together. Tell me when ? I have missed two games this season.
4. As soon as we go behind, we resort to hoof ball. Today - Dervite hitting 80 yard passes straight through to Gerkan in the Town goal !
5. Players are going backwards under Powell's coaching. Are Wiggins, Morrison, Hamer or Stephens better footballers ?
6. Milking the crowd, manipulating the media for his own purposes. The lap dog on the tannoy must have announced six times today that Powell is attending the Back to the Valley dinner tomorrow. So what ??? Coach our team.
7. A bland excuse monger. Never hits the nail on the head post match. Never comes out and says we are crap. It's always the ref or the best performance from the other side in 20 years. Deluded. Shades of Pardew.
8. Surrounded by Yes Men who bring nothing to the table, Damien Matthew aside.
just started to feel today that a touch of the Pardew's have settled in and maybe another very average manager is rather cynically taking this Club for a ride."
S**t for brains springs to mind.

50% of their threads are about how much they want Powell out. The other 50% are slagging off Charlton Life.
Very insecure.
Oh and Obika isnt any better than sordell and Powell nearly turned him into a hero!
He makes some good points - instead of having a go, answer his points with your own
I'm not going to go through each point individually, but even just looking at the first two points you can see that he's talking crap.
1) Harriot plays on the left and is there any evidence that Green or Wagstaff are better than Pritchard? This ultimately comes down to budget and if he had any money to spend I'm sure he would have been able to bring someone half decent in.
2) Took a gamble on Sordell, i'm sure like most fans you were pleased when he first arrived, hasn't worked out so he will probably return in January. For a club with no budget he certainly seemed to be a decent addition in the summer.
I guess when things go right players are overpraised and when things don't go right they are slagged off big time , you need a middle ground , and at least be objective with your critiscism , its hardly like we had a bunch of world beaters on the bench , today was an off day , we hope for better.

I've never been able to understand the vitriol aimed at Chris Powell on that site. Maybe I'm missing something.
No need to apologise, just think now's not the time for another ITV v CL spat is all.
as grown men that's not the things that men do
Who would want this job now? Will they actually care about Charlton Athletic like Powell does? Is there any money to get this saviour? Come on dudes quit moaning get behind what we have available, a mid to bottom Champ side, but with players who do give a shit (unlike Pardews barstard side) and can go out and bag good results against sides who have more resources than us.
Just ask Henry .
