SSN: Charlton gave the ball away,  Rudy Gestede raced down the wing and crossed it in and no Charlton players there, easy goal

Central defenders went missing like last week. Why tf can’t we sort out our defence?

Croydon

Are we playing one up front at home, against the lowest scorers in the league?

Fucking constant backwards passing undies us again. Why everyone is so keen to pass to Pearce I have no idea. 

This.

This.

This.

Passing backwards deep in our own half. NO!

Braziliance

Purrington completely at fault for that. We were looking decent as well, putting ourselves about and showing intent. Wake up Charlton

Negative bollocks that undoes is again. We are absolutely woeful and I’m quickly losing patience with Bowyer. Pull your fucking fingers out.

Don't worry, ESI will come to our rescue.

Hull in freefall next week could define if we get relegated or not.

Lose today and to Hull and we are down

Beat Hull next week and we will survive

Sheff Wed all over again, they cannot score until meeting us, one goal, will probably be enough

Exiled_Addick

We had warnings in the first 3 minutes. This back line can not be trusted to look after the ball and maintain possession when pressed. We have to stop giving it to them, passes have to be forwards. Confidence is clearly shot to bits though. No one in midfield wants to take risks, but the irony is by ‘playing it safe’ we keep giving away horrible soft goals.

When the players come back well climb the league! Hmm. Which players?

Bowyer can only pick the fit players in his squad .

We had a good spell there before we gifted it to them. Definitely got a goal in us.

How many times as that happened this season. That's down to Bowyer for me. He has to realise the back line are not good enough to pass it out from the back. 

Teams find it so easy to press us and force us into a mistake. 

RedRyan

Why. Why do we keep passing to the oppo?! Sick of seeing us get the assist for teams down there with us!!!

That goal isn't on Bowyer, that is completely Purrington being shite, having a rubbish game so far, just lost a one horse race to a free ball

23' The Addicks build down the right with Pratley laying off to Green. He pulls it back across the box, it goes behind everyone before Purrington meets it with a tame effort. #cafc 0 #boro 1

This is effing abysmal they are all over us.

Notice how Boro haven't decided to now go and sit deep for 70 minutes

Our midfield is awful, again.
