Leuth said:The Kingstonian stuff was Not Good too. Throw in the fact they regard themselves as the final bastion of moral goodness in football and you have a pretty dislikeable package
But, I'm not forgetting the fact that in their righteous quest to "return" to Plough Lane - where the club have never previously played - they didn't give a shit about trampling all over 90 years of greyhound racing history on the site.
Nah, as the wise man said above, "fuck em".1 -

F*** them and franchise FC3 -
Nasty little club, wish them the worst.1

Feel gutted that it's gone pear shaped with results for JJ at Wimbledon. I genuinely thought he could make a success of the job.
I don't do twitter etc because I didn't want some knobhead/fanny face with nothing better to do, to find some jokey/bad taste remarks I had made ten years ago to boomerang back when I'm famous and it ruins my reputation as a great football coach, Poet, Philosopher, Dad, Husband, Son, Brother, cousin and friend; as well as being very modest and humble !
Johnnie Jackson's banter was with his wife, Chris Solly and his wife, plus friend Sue Gallop and a few others by the looks of it.
In the sliding door world, Fraser would've turned up fit and sharp and Chuks Aneke would've stayed fit and scored his goal every 100 minutes ratio and we may of nicked the sixth spot instead of hitting our ceiling in mid table.
In the real world of hard knocks we fizzled out as we weren't good enough under the leadership of the Sandgaard's.
JJ didn't fail at Cafc as he took the team from 22th to 13th. Same thing this season with Holden taking the team from bottom 4 to mid table.
To be or not to be successful that is a 46 game Question 🤔3 -
I don't get this whole we should play the tweets off as banter thing
And i think if it was anyone other than JJ a Charlton legend people would be making more of it then they are(if it was Bonne who tweeted for example)
The women in the kitchen one ok I can see that as maybe 10 years ago being banter they should really have been kept offline.
However the rape one isn't funny now wasn't funny then and will never be funny, that is the one that sticks with me, he wasn't an 18 year old making a stupid comment either he was old enough at the time to know better, but as I say it seems to be oh he is a Charlton legend and a nice bloke so it's ok.
I'm sorry that doesn't wash with me, it was a terrible attempt at humour and makes light of real victims of rape IMO0 -

Can anyone tell me what this banner said? I can't recall.0

I can't get past the fact that they have a trophy cabinet with the FA Cup in it......a trophy won by a totally different club 15 years before they were even formed.

The first Wimbledon were a true fairy tale, way more than the likes of Wrexham and various billionaire clubs who make it to the PL.
The re-make for me is a fairy tale for the fans as well. Sure they probably live in the past/have a chip on their shoulder more than they should but it is hardly a surprise is it. We would be the same in their shoes. Look how important The Valley is to most of us more than most teams fans and the history/reason behind that.
I hope they turn it around and get back to L1. I hope JJ managed it but it looks unlikely sadly.

So when/if Charlton Athletic go out of Business and start again like the Phoenix from the ashes we lose our few hard earned Trophies ?
"We are Charlton, we like no one"
I thought MK Dons were the bad guys but apparently not.

Sounds like they're giving him another go next season. Or perhaps lip service until the end of the season1 -

Wimbledon fan I know doesn’t seem to be too sad with Jacko and says it’s expected with the players they’ve lost. Expects him to be there next season.2

That sounds like a genuine vote of confidence.
One massive issue they have, is that they crumble under pressure, something which hasn't changed from last season. You need your senior players to step up with strong leadership, but Chris Gunter as we know, only cares about Wales.0 -
Could come back as a number 2 for Deano next season?1

That's not healthy.3 -
They’ve stood by him. Fair play. Hopefully that will give him a bit more freedom from the pressure. I would imagine the pressure of the bad run is in absolutely every thought he has. Big summer for him0

I wonder how many Charlton players he'll come in for.

Then a new club were formed & joined the EFL pyramid. Its not that hard to comprehend. Just look at the history books.
But enough about that.1 -

Could see DJ staying there and maybe Lavelle goes there? Wouldn't mind loaning them Deji or Henry (if he stays) for 6 months.0 -

Chris_from_Sidcup said:I-SAW-POUSO-PLAY said:Honestly people on here bashing him. Yes he’s struggling but where’s the support? He doesn’t deserve some of these comments.
After failing with us and now not being far off taking Wimbledon into non-league i don't exactly think the managerial offers will be flooding in. He's clearly more suited to being a coach/assistant manager and at best i think he might end up managing an academy team.
According to Wimbledon they have the 17th largest playing budget in league 2 and have had 57% player availability compared to the league average of 86%. Yes he’s not done well this season but it does sound like it’s been in very tough circumstances. Before the transfer window and injuries derailed them he was doing well. There’ll be no excuses next season so that will be a clearer judge of how good he is as a manager after doing a good job for us and a poor job this season

Wimbledon massively need leadership on the pitch. I don't know whether Orient would want to keep him now they're promoted, but even at 38 someone like Darren Pratley is what Wimbledon desperately need, someone whose head won't drop and who will galvanize the youngsters around him4
