My only connection to Charlton now is a morbid fascination to see just how bad it can get.

I think that's Latrien's new mission statement

Out of the relegation zone on goal difference only

Let's enjoy that while it lasts!!

Utter dogshit

I'm not losing the will to live but I'm certainly losing the will to care and think about Charlton (let alone spend time and money on them ). It's just horrible. ..no quality or "entertainment" in any meaningful sense. Stayaways are missing nothing


Slade is not helping matters but I doubt he instructed Jackson to miss that pen (or miss the entire match, which in a way he did). Not does weak management excuse Lookman's terrible corners. Simply awful

Slade told us we needed a reaction. We got a portion of bad aids. Up there with the worst 90 mins I ever seen from a Charlton side.

There is no spirit, there is no fight and there is no discernible game plan (other than hoofing it foward aimlessly).

Slade is clueless.

The central midfield is possibly the worst I have seen in my 38 years supporting them.

I'm seriously worried. Make no mistake there is a real possibility that we are in for a relegation battle.

If this keeps up I reckon Slade has 5-6 games before he gets the boot. He is msking the words "horror show" his own.

Maybe ..... the situation has become unworkable behind the scenes, the players are dispirited and Slade feels his banging his head against the wall.

Perhaps this is Slade's way of saying he wants out - but gets paid up his contract?


Perhaps I'm talking b*ll*cks. But once again, something smells really rotten in the state of Denmark.

If not back in january then, I would give it a double dose now..
enough is enough

First match I've been to this season - feel really sad now. The worst thing is that I'm also going to a match at the end of the month.

There was no organisation, the players don't seem to want to play together at all. Lookman's first touch is impressive, but his corners are dreadful.

Holmes is NOWHERE NEAR as good as he thinks he is. He has, at times, tremendous vision, and spotted some runs fantastically in the first half. But he's useless at taking people on and attempted it SO MANY times. It worked once, when we got the penalty. The rest of the match, he just squandered possession needlessly.

The club is poisonous at board level and that has permeated down to the squad and on to the pitch.

Slade is inept and 1 dimensional, most of our players who are good enough probably don't want to be here (and I don't blame them).

No doubt Katrien and co smirked their way through another fixture and are now tucking into a nice drink and snack.

Meanwhile we're left wondering how much further we can fall and the answer is a fair way yet.

And even then you know Katrien will still have her smirk, Keohane will be checking his CCTV and Roland will keep lumping debt on us.

Bastards.

I'd refrained from launching into any sort of scathing attack on the regime so far this season. Not because my feelings have changed towards them, but I just wanted to try (however foolishly), to just forget about that side of our club and focus on supporting the team again, and for want of a better term here, just imagine it wasn't an issue.

However red panda has summed it up perfectly here. The poison that exists from the c**** HQ over in Belgium, to all the no marks he employs as his 1.5% underlings are once again taking centre stage. I was prepared to give the team and Russell time. However after the Oxford game, I said these last 2 home games would show us whether or not we have the man for the job, in the current culture our club exists in. We don't.

Today summed up our club perfectly. A struggle and display of utter shite on the pitch, mirroring those that own it. So many issues of concern out there it would take me another month to write this.

The worst thing about this dire record of 2 wins from 11 games, is that once again, I walk away thinking we've beaten by yet another average looking team. I can't honestly say of the 11 games, wow the opposition we were really good. That's embarrassing. That's also a shocking reflection on Slade and the team. That we've only mustered 2 wins against those 11 teams means we are a very sorry excuse of a team and a club.

All I can ask now is that as many of you as possible come out in force for Coventry and we give the best account of the protests so far. I will be very vocal and very willing to get behind that west stand prior to the game and join in with 'just sell the club'

We need our club back.

And the boys in blue scored such a lovely goal in the sunshine.

That thing called momentum, yeah we have plenty of it for league 2. Rochdale were no brazil yet played to their strengths whereas we did not know where our arse was from its elbow. The football is slowly getting worse and the arse is fallen out of this club. The last ten minutes were like an episode of supermarket sweep but instead of getting the champagne, cake and chocolate we end up with a trolley full of rotten cabbage.

Didn't go so can't comment on the quality of football. It just strikes me that we're in such a downward spiral, I can't see us pulling out. Bottom half mediocrity 50% Relegation 50%
