Think its a sign of what a prick Karl is, especially when O'Neill doesnt seem to have an issue with Jamie Ward withdrawing and then playing last Tuesday
i.e. Those 60mins Ward played against Stevenage could easily have come for Northern Ireland
Is KR trying to engineer himself the sack again?? (or is that it is just him all over. Those comments alone are going to have a massiv negative impact on the team (although I would have thought the dressing room must be already low at the moment). I don't understand why they have not fired him already.
I don't especially like him, and his lack of tactics will be his undoing at this level, but I don't think he is a candidate for abuse from us.
My view is that he was probably "the best available" manager at the time - given that we had lost out on Wilder due to RD etc. Yes, he was an apologist for the regime (his employer) and had limited resources during his time with us - but I think he wanted to succeed (and be loved) at CAFC. I won't be booing him.
As for Ricky Holmes - he was a top fella for us and I wish him the best.

The limited resources were certainly an issue but he knew that when he took the job. I don't think the majority of Charton fans are having a go about that though. We were far more concerned about his utter lack of tactical ability and stubborn insistence on a one-size-fits-all formation - which he has taken with him to Oxford (with predictable results).
He wouldn’t have signed a single player of that 11, and only worked with 4 of them, 2 playing regularly, the other two very in and out. But for sure he would still make it all about himself.
What a clown, absolutely everything O'Neill says is spot on.
I especially like the bit where he says about Robinson trying to claim he's somehow turned him into an international player in 5 games........despite him already being an international when he signed. Moron.
I believe Robinson thinks quite hard before he speaks. He fancies himself as lower a league Pep tactically and a lower league Mourinho when dealing with the media.
He’s no where near as smart as he thinks he is though, and people are increasingly seeing through the bullshit. As Mourinho is finding out, you can get away with it when you’re winning - better to keep your gob shut when you’re losing.
Still, he's got his excuse ready if they lose today.
Relegation 6-pointer against Plymouth. Surely his time will be up if he loses that, although hopefully they'll let him do his post-match excusathon first.
Why do people keep harping on about Robinson he is long gone. Move on to something else!!
Leave us alone. We're having a truly joyous time on this thread watching the defeats rack up, the list of excuses lengthen, his waistline expand and his P45 move ever closer.
Looking at the table now, Sadly I think the top 5 will be there at the end of the season but don't know in which position. The rest are fighting for 6th spot.

34 games to go for us, time to give up on finishing higher than 6th.

The man is an imbecile, nothing less.

MK Dons (2016/17 to 23/10/2016) - W6 D6 L7
Charlton - W 27 D22 L26
Oxford - W7 D5 L15
Total win percentage in that period = 33%
