Never felt like this in 10 years, I'm done

In my ten years supporting Charlton, I don't think i've ever felt this low, Not even after the double relegation and missing out on a play-off final, I'm also autistic and I feel a real connection and input when it comes to Charlton, its like my happy-spot and the one thing I really enjoy doing is watching them play,

I understand there are people on here that have been through much more with the club, Before we had The Valley back and all that. And I fully respect that, But i'm talking about my own personal experience with Charlton, Everybody has a story right

Last night was the final kick for me, I'm useually one that stick's and dosn't really join in in with the booing and that, But last night I saw eleven player's that don't even want to play for that puppet, he got his tatics so wrong, Why sit so deep, and only one up front again a team like Norwich?, Every igor flick on was to himself, we was sitting so deep on corners that everytime we cleared the ball, there was no challenge, it just kept coming back, How he didn't change that before halftime was beyond me, The only reason we got back into the game wasn't because '' We almost pulled a sublime comeback as the website puts it'' Norwich fell asleep, and we had more pressure on the front, I don't think Norwich got out of first gear all game.

He should be sacked, And we should put some of the younger players like Maldoon, maybe Church and other players that may half try to compete

i've never felt so bitter in my life, watching charlton falling apart in front of my eyes is painfull it cuts real deep,

I don't actually care about the new pitch, I dont come to Charlton to see that.. I go to watch my side be competitve and at least TRY to play football and for the laugh's and the Atmosfear that football bring's .

Last night was toxic, and something MUST CHANGE

    You can't accuse all eleven pplayers .

    buyens bulot the only players for me didn't put a shift in last night

    The others tried . First half bikey solly Wiggins were poor but we're still trying .

  • We are gonna need a new category for all these.

    Sadly and all joking aside VG I think you are right.

    I thought Bulot did his best to close them down at the back and showed for the throws. I know he didn't have much of an impact but there wasn't much wrong with his effort.

    Just to say i wasn't taking the piss out of Matt, its just seems that repeated threads lead to the same arguments and comments.
  • hang on in there Matt, it won't be like this forever. It can't.

    Easy for a tiny tot like you to say Smudge, but some of us ain't getting any younger you know.
    I want to win all the remaining matches and get into the play offs.

    Bikey trying??? Yeah, he really bust a gut to chase back Jerome for their winner. Watch the replay and you'll see him causally jogging back. Effort my arse...................
  • Matt , your puttting into words pretty much want i'm thinking, and questioning why your even bothering to go because you're not enjoying it any more and theres a million and one other things you could be doing or spending your money on.

    Walking up to the ground i was very positive, even excited , couldn't wait to get inside, i even said to my son how could we give up coming here?

    Once inside it was a completely different story, toxic atmosphere, clueless coach that winds me right up, players that were severely lacking in a mixture of self belief in their own ability to perform, we are a shambles of a club.

    But it will change, things will get better (thats what i keep telling myself) whether i'll still be here to see it is another thing, Roland please wake up and smell the valley pitch , you're killing this club softly.
  • There are many fans who are fans in the true meaning of the word - fanatical. Others have a limit and for many Charlton fans that limit has been reached.

    If you are not a fanatical fan and you look at this logically, why would you continue to go? Everyone has a limited amount of money to spend on entertainment or leisure. There must surely be more entertaining things you could spend the price of entry to a home Charlton match on. Unless that's what floats your boat, why go somewhere where, in all likelihood you will get stressed angry and frustrated for 90 minutes, surrounded by other stressed, angry and frustrated people. Where is the fun in that? Where is the entertainment? Where is the value for money?

    All true, of course, but we are getting to the point where even if it was free it wouldn't be worth the time spent getting there and watching the game.

    That joke saying about if they were playing at the bottom of your garden you'd close the curtains is, frighteningly, realistic with us at the moment.
  • Join the club. I didn't even miss not being there last night. I didn't even check the score until it was over.
    Undecided on whether to go Saturday.
    May go just to experience the toxic atmosphere. I do hope we win but we are ahocking at the moment.
    COYR With or without me being there.

    Network out. Roland out. Guy out.
    Katrien out.

    Well that's progress I suppose.

    A little over a week ago you were "out".

    Katrien. I'm out. Something drastic needs to happen to get me back. Lies and false hope.
  • I cant see how we can win - firstly Brentford are confident and can score goals - If we score first they will come at us and we can't defend. I doubt we will though and if they score first, they will do a better job than Norwich. The only thing that may change the outcome is a change of formation - very attacking with Watt and Vetokele up front - Cousins in the middle with JBG and another - wing backs (Solly and Wiggins) and 3 at the back. But I don't think we will even see Vetokele and Watt starting together.

  • PL54 it's like a marriage.
  • Or a drug. Not that I know. But you've made my mind up for me. I'm giving Saturday a miss. If you want my season ticket you can come a collect it.
  • hang on in there Matt, it won't be like this forever. It can't.

    Now this made me laugh ...
  • I can relate to a lot of this.

    I will never be 'out' in terms of being a Charlton fan. I would always want us to succeed.

    But I never went to the game last night (it was my sons parents evening at school) and I can see it turning in to a bit of a pattern. It simply isnt enjoyable going along to the games. Horrible atmosphere, no team spirit, and relegation is inevitable - even if we somehow escape this year, which seems very unlikely. I am taking my boy on Saturday with his friend from school and his Dad who are in the Brentford end. And I am dreading it - my boy will end up seeing his friends team thrash us and it will turn him off Charlton anyway.

    Why trek all the way up from Surrey in the freezing cold, when I could spend it with my kids at home (especially midweek games when I am bloody knackered after work and the train is a pain in the arse because you cant go between L Bridge and Waterloo East)?

    I simply cant be bothered!

    You need to adopt my pre-game strategy and get very very drunk. It has worked for some 30 years.

    Same here. Although you can get more pissed and get served quicker if you stay in the pub for an extra 90 minutes ;-)
  • I missed Rotherham and Norwich (the latter because it's a school night and I didn't have a babysitter for my son) but he thinks he might want to go on Saturday so I might go and have a look.

    I've not seen us play since Brighton four and a half weeks ago and I'm quite looking forward to see us play again now.

    you'll be pleasantly surprised I reckon. I remember when I was young cheering for an Arsenal goal at Highbury when my dad took me. I'm still here, 25 odd years later :wink:

    Don't play the blushing bride with me pal. You're not fooling anyone.
  • Nice one Micky. ;)

    London Bridge and Waterloo are about 4 minutes apart on the very reliable Jubilee line.
