Slade Must Go!
Comments
-
His post-match snide comments suggest he's cracking. Saturday seems to have got to him and it's just got worse tonight. Russell, if you can't stand the heat the get out. It's not going to get easier under this regime.0

To quote Barry the Baptist "He's a f***ing liability".
But alternatives there are not - and it's not actually Slade that needs replacing.1 -
Pains me to agree with big Ben but he's right ya know0

We could have Guardiola, Ancelotti or Simeone and we'd still be crap. Everything about the club is poisonous. It is the fault of Duchatelet and Meire not the manager. We need to focussing on getting them out, not the manager. You could get rid of Slade and replace him with anyone and we'd still struggle. Real change needs to happen at the top, not more tinkering with the middle man.6

Just heard his post match interview.
That is shocking.
You're not in a strong enough position to start attacking the hard core fans.
Win 10 games on the trot and you can say what you like.
Get barely more than a point a game in the 3rd tier and you are on thin ice.
Yes, you didn't miss the chances or give away the pen but neither did the fans.
Right now the fact that Meire has gambled so much on you being a success is just about keeping you in a job. Don't push your luck.25 -
His post match comments tonight on top of his lack of understanding as to the main reasons behind the protests on Saturday confirms for me that like the owners he is at the wrong club. Don't get to comfy in that manager's chair Brussel.2

I've seen a lot of Charlton managers and they all seem to make the most ridiculous decisions at times:
Andy Nelson refused to start Colin Powell at one stage.
Curbs for some time preferred Carl Tyler over Stevie Brown
CP refused to use his subs even though it was obvious to everyone that the opposition were getting on top and would inevitably score, and they normally did.
Riga refused to play Harriot until it was too late.
They all do crazy things in the eyes of fans. The difference with Slade is that Charlton fans were at the end of their tether before he even arrived and he is doing little to win them over. I cannot understand why he would open himself to such criticism by substituting our 3 best players, madness!1 -
I think if this was an isolated occurence you could make excuses for him. Holmes close to a sending off, Magennis with a head injury. The problem is, we see this negative approach too often so you can't give the plonker the benefit of the doubt can you? He still had the option of bringing on Ajose for Holmes. Sometimes putting an extra defender on and mixing things up unsettles the defence who have got into a rhythm. Surely Slade knows this.0

Sorry to Red chaser but even Chris Powell was guilty of retreating at 1-0 and conceding late goals. Twice he did it against the giant Zigic, at home and away against Birmingham( conceding in the last minutes) the important thing was not to invite tall strikers to get into your box and the defenders keep a high line.
I feel like i have just slagged off the late Queen mother !
Remember what Slade did in the last 20 minutes against Wimbledon when they put the two big lads on, and in most of the other 12 matches we have played in the League.
I have always concurred with Roy Walker.

Powell had different qualities, but this criticism is valid. Slade is worse though!1

When we were in League 1 before the "fallen giants" of Leeds, Southampton, Norwich and the two Sheffields' were there for some of our 3 seasons in the third tier.MuttleyCAFC said:Powell had different qualities, but this criticism is valid. Slade is worse though!
Now we have the Power houses of Bury, Fleetwood and Wimbledon.
If we kept being pro active and played an attacking game for 90 odd minutes(Think Eddie howe's teams) then the 1-1's may become a win and a lost.
Say 3-1 and 1-3 (other results are available) total 3 points
sitting back when ahead with scores of 1-1 and 1-1 = 2 points
I rest my case.

Why are you sorry mate?

Slade made a double sub very late on not like for like and both at the same time! What was wrong with one sub a minute or so after the other so as to take momentum out of Vales late flurry? These changes must have unsettled the players and it was poorly managed and so unnecessary IMHO.
Yes we should have been out of sight but Slade should not have screwed up either!1 -
I have not heard his comments after Saturdays game but did he really say that the protests were about team performance?0
-
If last years relegation was avoidable this year's would be catastrophic.
It's virtually impossible to be close to relegation with the squad we have.
It is purely Slade's lack of tactics and team/subs selection why we're not at least 10 points better off.
He's a negative manager who plays in a very old fashioned way. We need a young manager without fear who can bring the best out of our players. I know some aren't brilliant but they're mostly good enough for league 1.
Not only is he not very good but his attitude is awful. What has he achieved in the game? Nothing.0 -
The fact that Chris did the same thing as Slade on occasions is the relevant point. ( 1 goal up and being on top, then takes off attacker and puts on defender and we still concede because we sit too deep)RedChaser said:

Chris Powell was a good man manager which have been covered on 1000's of CL threads.
I know you are a tad sensitive to any criticism of CP so i got my apologize in early.

Powell's "mistakes" that you've mentioned came when we were a new team just promoted in the Championship.soapboxsam said:Sorry to Red chaser but even Chris Powell was guilty of retreating at 1-0 and conceding late goals.

Can't see the point of sacking Slade.
Very disappointing in his defensive setups and defensive subs and lack of ability to make a good substitution.
However, I still think we should give him a whole season.
He needs to pack in with the complaints though and grow a pair.

Anyone who says Slade shouldn't go is actually arguing with the man himself, he made a big ("I'm here") statement in the summer about top 6 the minimum and we are a long way short of that.
He's already made comments about promotion next year and one of his comments last night was port vale are 5 wins and 1 draw at home, they are 6th in the league so therefore by his own definition they are a side we should be beating - not taking off our three attacking options against.
His only saving grace is that it's not the end of the season and his top 6 failure isn't confirmed.
The sad state of our club is merely that he's not the main problem!

If you hire a manager with 22 years experience, who has never been Promoted or relegated, that indicates that you are looking for a Manager to
keep the status quo. ( mid table League 1, that will do nicely)0 -
And he's making a damned good fist of it thus far, poor old Chris Powell had an excuse, he was still wet behind the ears relatively speakingsoapboxsam said:If you hire a manager with 22 years experience, who has never been Promoted or relegated, that indicates that you are looking for a Manager to

Slade is the sort who won't try to be positive because it might make it look like he is listening to us.0

I think you'll find there will be quite a few unemployed managers that will.Hovi's Biscuit said:No credible manager will work for these twats

They'd love that. Nice cheap option, fans love him so less grief for them.MuttleyCAFC said:And JJ is surely worth a try!
No thank you. Any manager is doomed under these idiots, I'd rather not see Jacko become the next scapegoat.3
