What's happened to all our other CBs incidentally?
Will Pearce be back before the end of the season? What's happened to Lennon and Johnson. Frankly Johnson would be an improvement over our current defence
As recently as Saturday I posted that I thought Robinson should stay and be given proper support during the summer window but I'm wobbling badly now. I thought he was the answer but it's becoming obvious that the dressing room is far from happy. Once that happens it's hard to pick up points enough. If we can't get three points at Northampton then I'll be calling for a change.
That's a 100% turnaround for me.
Steady on. You'll be saying Corbyn isn't that bad next!
Thank you Roland and Katrien for destroying my club. League One and the regime stay - no thank you. League Two and the regime go - yes please.
We said this when it was a choice between championship and stay and league one and go. How low do we want our club to go? League One must make us an unattractive purchase, let alone League Two.
I can't see him going for a while sadly. All he has done it fail and he seems fine with it.
Was there .. there is a LOT to say about this game but I am just back in the hotel I am fecking freezing even after a nice warm car ride so I'll have a shower and a think and have write
One quickie though, Shrewsbury were a good little outfit and scored some cracking goals, they murdered us on the break ... our defence with two emergency full backs and Konsa in the middle just could not cope .. Holmes was superb .. over and out
Well we're on our way back and I think that might be me done with Charlton all together. Haven't been to the valley for over 3 years but went to most away games. I really can't take this crap anymore.
Wife is due to give birth to a little lad in the next few weeks and always wanted to bring him up as a Charlton fan. Dress him up in everything Charlton and take him along to the games every week. It was going to be our Father son thing to do.
The way it's going there won't be a Charlton to support in a few years and definitely not one like the one i grew up supporting. I might feel better in the morning. Maybe it's the drink.
Surefire way to lose the dressing room if it hasn't already happened.
he's out of order .. they all put in a shift .. just not good enough .. Robinson is not fit to manage a piss up ... you know the rest .. he should just shut the fuck up and fuck off .. please excuse the expletives
Once the manager starts looking to blame players then you know you're close to the end. Easy to say on the night but how the hell does he walk onto the training ground tomorrow and try to gee them up?
We had a excellent left back however Slade thought he was not good enough and shipped him off to Huddersfield. How Muldoon was never given a change by this bloke I will never know. He will come back to the valley with Gillingham and show us what a good player he is.
Well look on the bright side, Holmes will fund £500k of players for league 2.
Appreciate that's a tongue-in-cheek comment.
Just for the avoidance of doubt though, based on what we've shelled out this season with the funds generated by Cousins, Pope, JBG and Lookman, £500k for Holmes will, at best, result in one free transfer signing.
Was working out during the match, but did get to listen, then been in meetings since so haven't seen/heard the full interview and there may be context I'm missing.
If he's said that, that is poor. We've scored three goals tonight and been let down once again by our defending, being caught out on the counter yet again. That is down to coaching, plane and simple.
So let's take a look at who might be "unfit to wear the shirt": GK: Rudd--sounded like he was very good again tonight, probably the best GK in the league RB: Byrne--didn't sound great tonight, there's quality there but it's clear he struggles defensively at RB, not "unfit to wear the shirt" bad though CB: Konsa--one of the few players to come out with any credit all year CB: Tex--been inconsistent this year but has played in the Champions League and has quality, at times sounds like he tries to make up for the mistakes of his midfield and fullbacks and gets caught out LB: Jackson--not a left back. RM: Holmes--hat trick CM: Aribo--perhaps a bit too much too soon, entering his third month in the senior team CM: Crofts--can't play in a midfield two but a decent player LM: Botaka--inconsistent. ST: Novak--seemed tidy today. I'm still not convinced by him, not convinced he does enough in front of goal or that he's fit but again, not "not fit to wear the shirt" bad ST: Magennis--something's not right, perhaps it's lingering injury, perhaps it's falling out with the manager. If Mag, someone who seems to be the nicest, most humble man around has fallen out with the manager, then that's a damning indictment. Still very much fit to wear the shirt.
KAG: Got an assist. Watt: Back to being the Tony Watt he's been for all but 3-4 months of his time with the club. Not really his fault tonight DaSilva: Not his fault.
So I would love to know who is "not fit to wear the shirt."
I'm gonna go watch Donald Trump's joint session speech to cool myself down.
I remember watching a BBC interview with KR post MK, in which he said that, in the end, the players weren't playing for him... six months on and history repeats itself. If they weren't playing for him at MK, why sign JFC and try to go after several more?
And why, after the exhaustive interview with Robinson in Paris, did Roland decide to employ a manager fixated with 4-2-3-1 when we didn't have the players to play that system? Sounds like nobody at the cloob did their homework properly before they appointed him.
Ironic if Ajose's goals turn Swindon's fortunes around and they overtake us: fitting too if Slade's relegated Coventry take three points off us and seal our fate in L2.
Never mind the players, Gobshite isn't fit to wear the badge either - and, as for Meire, well, you couldn't make it up coulv you?
When you've got a load of suits fucking the club over but you're a player just trying to prove yourself week in week out, you need a playing squad that believes that despite what happens at board level, you can prove you're worth simply playing the game. For that to happen you need a manager that can extract that from you, Robinson is not that manager, he's fucking shit. He's me me me and it ain't what this club requires during this shit stain of a period. Just fuck off.
Well we're on our way back and I think that might be me done with Charlton all together. Haven't been to the valley for over 3 years but went to most away games. I really can't take this crap anymore.

Good luck to you and your missus. Sounds like you need to take some time out from CAFC (don't we all). Hopefully, by the time that your lad is old enough to be taken to football we'll be rid of the demented Belgian twat.

FFS we'd be lucky to get a network manager to take on the role at the moment.
There really does seem to be no answer other than Roland selling and a complete overhaul of the Club from top to bottom.
Please don't let Robinson get sacked and throw Jackson into the fray. He'd be going from hero to zero in about 4 games.
Help us OB1 you're our only hope.
That'll help us turn this around.
Will Pearce be back before the end of the season?

Bankrupt man's Brendan Rodgers, which is really saying something
