    This is actually one of the worst 20 minutes I have seen us play under Holden.

    And I’m not shocked. We are basically playing the youth team and a someone who is not a WB at the back.

    So we’ve been in desperate need of a left back so we sign one stick him in midfield and play our winger who can’t defend at wing back?
    Edun can play left back or centre mid
    But CBT can’t defend. And other midfielders are available.

    Almost a 2nd there. Defence looking VERY shakey

    Once again we are in the all black strip, in another game when the Red/White strip would be good, can't get this sticking to that format, we are RED/WHITE Addicks...c'mon..
    Laundry lady on summer hols.

    Last week's red kit still needs washing.

    FACT!

    Nailed on.
    We should always wear red unless there is a clash, end of.
    Funninly enough, I do agree with you, Large

    Should be two. Charlton all over the place at the back again, Oxford with men over in the area. Think it was Goodrham who fired over the bar from about 12 yards. 18'

    Is it silly to start talking about the possibility of relegation?

    Ness looks nothing like he was last season. All over the place as are most of them.

    We are not in the game at all. 
    Could be a cricket score.

    God we need an experienced CH. We look so weak, they are tearing us spart

    Seem to play it forever between keeper and back two then lose it first pass into midfield. Dross.

    Then play him left back & our left winger on the left wing.

    Hardly rocket science.

    Every kid out there is getting bullied off the ball currently.

    Oxford keep getting chances. Charlton players look confused about how they're meant to be playing. This is bleak. 
    No watching but you’re a sensible head SD. This worries me if that’s what you’re seeing

    This is so painful to watch.

    Oxford basically have the way we want to play down to a science after a summer and five league games under Manning.

    Over to you Holden…

    Unless there a dramatic turnaround, it's more likelihood than possibility.

    I will be melting down properly by half-time at this rate.

    Why is Hector on the bench, fuckin odd.  The average age out there we clearly need some direction and leadership.

    We are being outclassed.

    And sadly neither either Kirk or Jaiyesimi are on the bench to improve things.

    Need to get karoy off before half time

    …...looks like Holden is losing the fans.

    Shocking, but I am not surprised by this.

    Oxford’s goal was really poor from our midfield.

    May didn’t want the long ball granted, but you can’t have all three midfielders rushing on to the point where a clearing header takes our entire midfield out of the game.

    One of three (Dobson was furthest back) has to hold their position to cut out that attack before they get anywhere near our penalty area.

    Fuck me I don’t actually think I can watch this anymore.

    Its just Oxford tearing us apart with quick incisive football, then I plodding forwards and then playing a long ball to Kanu.

      Delay over. They are ready to continue

    We just don't seem to have a plan of any sort, acres of space on the left for them, we are so out of it as it stands
  • Options
    Hector has been poor this season but surely you need to get as much experience out there as possible right now? They’re all losing their heads
