    At least we’re level on points with League One Champions Ipswich Town!
    I made a wish that we would finish just above Ipswich. I now regret it.

    Sounds like Inniss will be fine for Saturday

    Sounds like it was always the plan for him to do 45mins the way Adkins is talking
    What sort of plan is that?
    I bet tomorrow we learn he’s out for 4-months….

    Think it was a harsh result think we deserved something from it .. you got a much better performance tonight if Stockley made it 2-1 it’s a diff second half ……. MOM Clare …

    We leak Goals 
    we need at least 4 more new players including a proper striker.
    disappointing result after the first 20 minutes.
    We seem to get  arsehole Refs as much as we get injuries.

    What a surprise the same people from last year are back moaning again. No it wasn’t great, give it time.

    My frustration comes from how pedestrian the team looks with such a small amount of recruitment. 

    But the midfield is all completely different. Matthews and Gunter have always been bad. 

    Glad to see people blaming the players this time and not the manager.
    That's because things are no better.  So why is moaning a surprise?

    Sandgaard raised expectations.  He has failed to deliver.

    I have the right to moan.  But I'll soon shut up ... and apologise ... if he puts it right.
    I was only messing. As you can see even I couldn’t help myself from moaning

    It makes sense. He has played less than 90 minutes pre-season. He has to get up to speed as the season progresses.

    Not sure why we’re worried. I mean, look at Blackpool last season, started shit and stormed the play offs. Just got to have a bit of faith............
    Just hope they looked shit on the pitch and werent just out played - As we didnt exactly blow them away in October when we won 1-0 there

    I know you liked my post FA but I was taking the piss. At this moment in time we have a snowballs chance in hell of storming the play offs, we’re going to be ‘enjoying’ possibly the worst season I’ve witnessed in the thirty four years I’ve supported the club. Unless we bring in at least five quality players before the window shuts we’ll be condemned to flirting with relegation, not planning a promotion party.

    Not sure about goalie maybe Henderson needs to be signed 
    He'll do for me at left back...

    If we can't bring them in in three months, I can't see how we can do it in two weeks, but we shall see.

    As things stand by large the worst squad we have had in a long time, if not ever, TS has a lot to answer for in the coming weeks, no more metal guitar shit

    Thanks Gary Nelson:
    If you say we should play two up front even try 4-4-2.

    Thanks Matt Holland for saying we should play a forward closer to Stockley.

    When I said it before our first game of the season and every game since it has no kudos.

    4 games played, all with the same outcome that we just simply do not create enough chances.  On Saturday we would never have got an equalizer and tonight was no different

    I have never ever seen a manager of this club stick so much to a formation during games when it is so clear we would end up with a a defeat as the last 3 games have been played out.  Either he thinks this formation is the future and its going to click or he is trying to prove a point he needs more/better players to those above him.  Either way its awful to watch

    Stayed back deliberately at the end to see what reaction the manager and players got when they came across to what was left of the supporters there.  Booing and a chant of not fit to wear the short was the response they got back from some.

    I hated that 2nd half. Once again, so fucking one dimensional.

    Made even worse by the start which shows the players are capable. But then zero resilience, zero fight, zero composure, zero game plan and zero adaptation.

    We are fucking shit.
    Capable until the opposition adjust to the way we’re playing and then we’ve got nothing.

    I’m sorry to keep bringing Bowyer up but the narrative was he was dragging everyone down, but time has shown he spoke a lot of truth. We might now have a manager who thinks everything is rainbows, lollipops, and unicorns but we’re still a piss poor team in a piss poor league.

    With a few exceptions, the players are collectively not good enough.

    Glad they said that because I turned it off and said it myself. We hoof it up to Stockley anyway so might as well give him a bit of help.

    ‘Gunter gets pressured onto his left and slows down the phase of play either coming on his right or kicking it out’….10 days later, still happening. Fuck me, I know these people have done their badges and have experience but it’s so frustrating.

    Is this the worst league one Charlton team weve ever had?

  • It's the tactics that really concern me.

    Our fans going "oooooooo" every time MacGillivray gets the ball and then jeering when it's lumped up to Stockley really sums up how obvious every move we made was. 

    Those at the game tonight will know exactly what I mean when I say things are turning very sour, very quickly.

    Weren’t we in for Eisa and Parrott when Bowyer was manager ? 

    Wonder what Technical Directing Roddy is doing ?

    Just my opinion but I feel sorry for Adkins. Can hardly expect him to work miracles with the mediocrity he’s been given to work with. I can’t think of any manager that could do better with a substandard first eleven and bench made up of raw kids.

    Leaving the ground on his todd about 5 minutes after the end of the game 
  • Out of interest, am I the only one that thinks the new keeper is rubbish?

    4 4 2 sounds good. But we’ve only had the players to do that since Kirk joined

    We can’t just play lump it up to stockley all season . 

    With the wingers we have we need pace and someone who can finish with their feet
