  • Excellent summary Garrymanilow.

    If you want to catch a moment in time when things were looking grim check out Charlton live after the Crawley defeat. Plenty of people in the chat calling for Jones head and one comment stuck out to me in particular: "I've been following charlton. for many years, 60 years the football Jones playing is the worst I've seen... he needs to go now."

    Also the table makes for interesting reading after that game, never imagined we could be sitting here in 5th a couple months later!


    Look at Leyton Orients position back then too!!

    Five out of the top six same as now albeit in a different order. We’ve replaced Reading and have made up eight points. 

    Puts the idea of us somehow making up another nine points and climbing into top two into context - pretty impossible. 
    But also all credit to the turnaround. 
  • Yes, you can rapidly catch teams that average 1.3 points per game, if you’re averaging 2.

    But if the top 2 or 3 are also averaging 2 points per game, then we’ll have to win most games and rely on them starting to lose.

    I had serious doubts about Jones. I was keep him, sack him then keep him again but the keep hims were not with great enthusiasm. I felt he tampered with the team too much but now we see things from a different perspective, one of strong performances, I can see he was probably looking for something in a legitimate way you can look for something. By trial and error.

    We felt a lot of the players were not good enough, but they have shown that they are. He said they were and said we would get better and they have and he was right. Even if we do not make it this season, I will just go with the plan and think the best way to do it next season is to stick with Jones. But, we could do it this season. Why not now?
