    Adkins has never settled on an 11. Never settled on a way to play when Stockley is in the side. Played Gunter left back for most of the season. Talking is brilliant.

    Ormiston Addick gave his opinion and forecast that it would be awful. He was laughed out of town.
    Five months later we can see that he was right.
    I don't see why people are having a go at him now. 
    Personally I say 'well done' to the bloke.
    Where was all the noise when we lost 1 out of ten in our run in? 

    I'll hold my hands up and say I got it wrong about Adkins, but giving it the 'I told you so' over Charlton's failure, to other Charlton fans, is just muggy.

    I also think there's much more to it. Can't all just be Adkins 
     Very well put.

    Who could he have played at left back?

    Playing one up front every game has to be Adkins fault.  I think that's very negative, especially when playing teams like Accrington Stanley at home, when their away form is shite.

    Playing Albie Morgan as a holding midfielder tonight was a sackable offence by itself

    After watching Gunter play there most of the season, I would of taken anyone else. Talking is brilliant.

    Tbh I'd feel more like sacking Morgan. He can't play AM and he can't play CM. He can't play

    We have to put pressure on Thomas to make changes if Adkins isn’t sacked tomorrow. We can’t allow this to carry on, our league position is now very dangerous.

    Can the trust do something?

    Agree. The whole structure seems to be failing. Adkins is the fall guy, as managers always are, but if the core set-up of the club is rotten it really doesn't matter who you bring in.  You have to wonder who is advising Sandgaard because he seems to be one of the few left who doesn't see the whole edifice falling down around him

    Doubt very much that TS would take his Mrs in to the room while he sacks someone, so are they just having a bit of an informal chat about ways to improve? Hope not

    But we don't play 1 up front, we play one center forward, when Lee, or Washington, has played the "10" we have basically played 4 up front.  That's hardly negative.

    Yourself.
    Is he also trying to blame Jacko and Euell for not being supportive enough?
    'The people you're surrounded with'?
    If he means the fans, who travel in numbers to Wycombe, and Fleetwood, and Lincoln, who try hope against hope to back the team and any scant things that happen that are good, if Adkins is blaming the fans he is ridiculous.
    Nigel, revisit the word 'yourself', what have you found out, and what change flows from that?

    “Confidence is a big thing in football and in life. You’ve got to keep doing the right things, be strong and keep good habits. We’ve got to do that as a team. It’s a simple game – put it in one end and keep it out the other. We’ve not been keeping it out of our net sufficiently enough and therefore results have gone against us.“

    According to my mate who was a sponsors guest tonight and was on the next table, Sandgaard got his ear bent very quickly after picking up a sausage roll post match so beat a hasty retreat. Presumably just looking for a bit of respite in the boardroom.

    If NA isn't gone by midday tomorrow, he's gonna be here for the Sunderland game, which would be Duchatelet levels of appalling.

    Duchatelet would have sacked Adkins three times by now. 
    and his three replacements.

     Think you're jumping the gun a bit there Seth.
    I don't think it's the fans. Can't be Sandgaard. He's thousands of miles away the majority of time.
    No ,this is either the players or close staff

    That’s it for me until Adkins is gone, won’t attend another match.

    As I have said before Adkins should resign if he had any dignity or Sandman should sack him if he has any balls.

    The same old shit week in week out, if it doesn’t change soon we will be relegated, pure and simple.

    Probably would have rehired him too in that time.

    Duchatelet would have got rid of him games ago. But I get your point.

    I doubt the commercial director and his missus will be adding any input into sacking Adkins, so what else could they be chatting about?

    "So, Wayne, How about a Sandgaard music festival every close season - wank fest"
    Who are Wayne and Raelyn ?
    TS's better half and commercial director Wayne Mumford.

    Chose to play video games instead of watching that. 

    Good decision based on everything I've read.

    33 games to go.
