Quite frankly and objectively we deserved to win that gameThat said, although I feel sorry for bow as we've had our fair share of bad luck however the bad performances of late mixed with these poor results are unacceptable and the last 30 minutes was an exercise in seeing how patient I could be before turning off the stream.As I said. Unacceptable.9

How the fuck can people still defend Bowyer15

Watching that was dire. One of our worst league results ever, surely? They’ve got one QUARTER of their total points tally against us as it stands.
Ultimately… I think that’s it for Bows, sadly. The body language was awful; Olly’s tweets were morose; the players appear to be rudderless.
That’s it for this season and I look forward to a renewed push with different coaching personnel in 2021/22.
Bullet points (most made during the game):
- There is NO movement ahead of the ball when we are in possession and in particular when our wingers are in possession
- Defensively we look to soak up pressure and counter against everyone in the league. Burton are bottom and we are trying to do this, to no avail.
- There is no willingness to adapt tactically after oppositions identify what we are doing
- Ben Watson underhits every pass ever
- There is too much space between Stockley and the wingers. This is exacerbated by only playing what appears to be one central midfielder
- We appear to pick eleven players seemingly at random from week to week
- There is no cogent philosophy to our play - not even one as simple as "get it down the wings, down the line and cross in from the byline"
- We started today with two wingbacks and two wingers? What the hell is that?
- The subs were thrown in seemingly at random, and Schwartz looked lost. Well, not even - he did nothing. And I suspect that is because we have made several panicked, disjointed signings, and that’s reflected in the way we play and squad imbalance.

Sack the useless prick, send half the squad with him.
Anyone who still wants him in charge simply doesn't have Charlton's best interests at heart. Loyalties in the wrong place21 -

Curbs, Morts and Minto trying really hard not to stick the boot in15

I'm not buying any game with Bowyer in charge, i've wasted £300 on this shite7

Not only do we lose the ball easily, we make other teams look like world beaters. So disappointed.3

Late to the “bowyer out” party.
But that’s it for me, he’s gotta go, it’s pathetic.1 -

We could play for another hour and still not score the equaliser tonight. Season looking to be over unless a change is made I fear.0

thanks LB, but it's time for you to go now.0

What an absolute sack of shite.
I must have more chance of Amanda Holden sitting on me face than Bowyer has of keeping his job.20 -
On a happier note scum losing 1-05

Said it in the match thread but I think it bears repeating:
It's worth remembering this is a team that has far more quality than we're seeing tonight. We are drastically less than the sum of our parts. And to me that's down to the manager.
You saw in the first 20 what we're capable of. You saw how it ended. This feels like the last days of Robinson. Start well, but even scoring one goal isn't enough. I think tonight will seal Bowyer's fate. Not sure he'll go tonight, but it feels like he isn't the man to take us forward.21 -
Utter utter dire
football has been wank for months now.
I refuse to watch the games now, until bowyer has gone.

I'm not angry, I'm sad. Bowyer will go with credit for the day out at Wembley, and holding things together through some abject times. But he does need to go.
I do think his players have stitched him up though, which is grim.26 -

I was thinking that Purrington was having a decent game and he was hooked about a minute later!13

Bowyer has proved again he hasn't got a clue. Get him out now Thomas ffs. When I saw the line up I was pleased that we were playing 5 in midfield even though 2 of them were Pratley and Watson but to play 5 at the back against Burton is nothing short pathetic. The desperate attempts to change the formation 38 times during the game killed us even more. Bowyer has lost the plot and needs to bloody go now.4

Same old same old week in week out - Bowyer out his depth tactically and has been for over a year1

Another formation change, but another poor performance.
I'm convinced if we played a flat 4-4-2 from the start that would have been a completely different result. No disrespect, but you can see that Burton are a side who lack any quality - but we, once again, looked utterly clueless and like we didn't have any sort of game plan.

Rubbish management and rubbish team performance - all very depressing. We're garbage and getting worse.
Lee deserves the sack - he can't do the job.1 -
In seasons past, The Valley was a fortress.
Now?

Second half was indefensible. Formation and tactics literally appear random.3

Terrible.I think TS and Jed Roddy have a busy couple of months ahead getting a replacement.Put in JJ or Jason in as caretaker and take our time getting the right man .Thomas must wonder what he’s let himself in for !1

Another hour! I said to my son that we'd need until sunrise.welling1986 said:We could play for another hour and still not score the equaliser tonight. Season looking to be over unless a change is made I fear.1
