Middlesboro v Charlton - Post Match Views

The reality check is that its the first defeat for a while.

However, I think there are a number of serious debates to be had over the next few days. Hope everyone can make the effort.to articulate their various views in an adult way.

As always, look forward to hearing from those there

  • Doncaster away is now the most important game in our season now!
  • edited January 2014
    I wasn't there but its plainly obvious we need to get a striker in asap. Although I didn't expect us to win I read somewhere on here that it was our 7th 1-0 defeat of the season.

    RD on the off chance you are reading this PLEASE send us your best man from SL now and prove to us that Charlton are your jewell in the crown.

  • Everyone beneath us wins, and Palarse do too. Horrible day....

    well then, just hope that CP is either replaced by then or has a lobotomy because if he sets the team up v Donny like he did today then there will be only 1 result..........

  • Depressed
  • Sounded like the majority of our games this season. We lack that extra bit of quality in the final third. 10 days till the Donny game if Roland has any cash left now the times to use it.
  • It's a defining moment in our season for me. Proved yet again that we are not a soft touch but we are undeniably toothless and I doubt it's just a striker that we desperately need. I have no doubt that CP's job is very much on the line over the next few weeks so I hope those two or three players we need come in and help Chris turn it around. Very worried of Shooters Hill.
  • It's not really the end of the world.

    We never expected a win, the team sounded like they gave it a go. Lacked quality in the final third for a change.

    The two new lads sounded like they did ok. Thuram should have done better for the goal but made a number of top saves. Harriott sounded hungry again, maybe sitting in the stands watching Stewart has given him the kick up the arse he needed.

    Not much has changed really. We need a striker and a better rm.

    Deal with the problem roland!
  • CP did what he could with what he had.

  • Fearing the worst to be honest.

    No goals again. Very little threat again. Unless we unearth a cheap Gem to play upfront and score some goals the end result is inevitable.

    Just don't see RD splashing any money on perm signings.

    Games have followed the hoofball, no goals pattern too many times thia season.

    Only positive sounds like Thuram recovered from the error for the goal.

    Doubt RD will be getting any positive feedback at the moment and suspect CP is on borrowed time.
  • As I said on the match thread,on paper, when we lose, its nearly always by the odd goal. Its seems like opposing teams,after getting the early goal,just shut up shop,almost in expectance that we wont score. Defence and midfield are more than adequate for lower half championship but we all know where we are badly lacking. Sounds like we gave it a bit of a go and came up short again. Be interested to hear from those that were there how how the two new signings did. COYR.
  • took till the 91st min to have a decent effort on goal. tells you everything you need to know
  • We are in a seriously difficult position now. Outside the bottom 3 only on goal difference & with a continuing total lack of goals in the side. Unless something major changes very quickly I can see us being relegated this season. I know that Roland inherited a disastrous mess from the previous owners, but something has to be done now.
  • How many more 1-0 losses or 0-0 draws before people realise we're in trouble?

    Desperately need some backing in this window. Few injuries and we wouldn't stand a chance currently.
  • Lost one nil away to a team in good form, played with ten men for the end of the game, seemed to be on top for last 20 minutes.

    Bolton and Birmingham about to be dragged into the battle at the bottom.

    We have a reasonable goal difference compared to others, and rarely lose by more than one.

    We are not going down.

    I generally try to maintain a positive attitude; see the glass as half full. Football clubs go through good and bad patches. Try not to get too excited when things go right and not get too depressed when things go wrong.

    I have to admit now that I am worried. I can't quite put my finger on what the crux of it is but I have a bad feeling.

    I have nothing against our new owner. I appreciate him coming in and buying the club. There just seems a real air of despondency. The pitch, the lack of depth of the squad and a manager who I admire and respect greatly appearing to be more and more subdued.

    Today's game and the manner of the defeat plus the fact the it is our seventh one nil loss of the season has given me a sense of foreboding.

    Can anyone out there fill my glass a little?

    Positives: still out of bottom three with a game in hand, sounded like thuram played well after his mistake and we maybe could have nicked a point.

    Negatives: Wiggins loss will be a big blow, striking problems aren't about to miraculously disappear.

    At the risk of stating the bleeding obvious, we need to add to the squad quickly.

    Didn't realistically expect anything from this one but we need to start winning our home games.

  • Just got in. All I know is the starting line up and the result. I see we have signed Koc and maybe Goochi to follow. I just have a feeling, and I don't want this to happen, that Roland wants his own man in ASAP and the performance Tuesday and the result today, performance being irrelevant in this context, that CP is a dead man walking. He seems to be foisting Standard loanees onto us, although that may have been a plus today with both Ben's missing, and next in will be his own man. Seems to be the European way in that someone gets the players and some lucky bugger gets to manage them. I just think he wants his own man. Whether long term that will be the right decision who know but I do think with some reasonable backing that CP could be that man. I hope he is given the chance to prove it but somehow I think not.
  • We had nine efforts on goal, three corners to their one and they fouled us more tan we did then...however we had a sending off!
    To find out 'everything we need to know' I will wait for somebody who was there.
  • Need a decent forward in badly.
    If RD doesn't trust Powell with any money, sack him and bring someone who he does trust.

    We need a forward badly and I don't know what the problem is and why we haven't got one in.
    10days to the next league game. Got time to find one. But something needs doing because time in the transfer window is running out.
  • Wiggins will be a huge loss for 3 matches. I hope 1 or even 2 will be FA Cup matches.

    SCP will have his work cut out to keep us out of the bottom 3 given our lack of ability to score goals.

    On the face of it losing 1-0 at Boro is not the end of the world but we cannot win at home (inability to score again) so away draws and better are crucial for us if we are to survive.

    Chickens are coming home to roost I fear!
  • Disastrous days of results that will test those on a diet to the max !
    Doesn't sound the worse performance in the world but powder puff up front and lack of creativity is gonna be our downfall unless there is quality fresh blood brought in


    1 win in 10 games is the real worry and we're gonna need a proper signing/ loan or two to make the difference between safety and relegation

    55% 13th-21st ......... 45% Relegation hell
  • As said, just got in. Why did we finish with only 10?
  • As said, just got in. Why did we finish with only 10?

    Wiggins sent off
  • Can't say i really expected anything today but the depressing thing is that all the other results went against us and once again we can't score. Some big games upcoming and obviously we have to solve the goalscoring problem or league 1 beckons. Lets hope rd gets his cheque out but i can't help wondering if he will want to bring in his own man and show cp the door
  • Well, it seems the 'Powell Out' brigade are rubbing their hands together
