    Get out of jail fee card could be coming here.

    This has to be a water shed moment (pardon the pun) otherwise we're in big big trouble this season. I don't know if it's tactics, team selection, the players' attitude or a simple lack of quality but Powelly and the board need to figure out how this is going to be fixed and sharpish.

    No excuses for me. We deserve nothing judging by the first half hour. Someone at Charlton needs to stand up and sort this out!

    CP needs to speak to the board and ask if he can get anyone in...the squad at the moment are nowhere near good enough with the exception of 2 or 3

    It's decidedly worse in our half for some reason, creating more confusion in our back line than there already was.

    No matter what the state of the pitch was, that game was an embarrassment.

    Doubt the ref will tell Doncaster at 3-0 up the game is cancelled so we'll probably be back out...

    Our penalty area and Wiggins side is terrible. The ball will not roll at all

    About safety though really, players and his own.. stuff will get filthy if we're getting hammered and rain keeps pouring

    I have a feeling he may have already sent a few disapprovals their way.Just a hunch mind ;-)

    The problem for Powell is that it is a squad that he put together.

    Its not due to the lack of players mate. Those players out there are more than good enough to be beating doncaster.

    Would really love to know what they get up to during the week in training.

    sadly I think CP has been 'stuffed' by our current owners....he has shipped out 4 players I believe and got Gower and Woods in...both on frees....the board surely can see we need some more bodies and time is running out....this is going to potentially be a long hard season
