    Fucking ridiculous conceding late again 😡😡. Holden must be under real pressure now.

    Describing our summer transfer window? 
    It’s all poor, but tactically wrong again! All at sea, wrong selection, wrong formation, it is clueless. And yes the recruit isn’t great Sherlock.

      Substitution

      Substitution, Oxford United. Gatlin O'Donkor replaces Mark Harris.

     Conceding late once is unlucky. Twice in two games is poor defence. Three in three and the coach has questions to answer

    The team selection may have been the key moment.

    The churn of yet another manager
    I wish I could find a way to stop supporting us

    If he isn’t any good , why keep him ? 
    Probably not the time but if you think he’s been given the tools to play the way he wants then you’re misguided. And the players he has been given are mostly injured.
    Chop, change and not having the squad sorted early in pre season is the same problem every summer for the last few years.

    It’s the people above Holden who need to be held accountable.
    Bringing in yet another manager isn’t the answer.
    Totally fatigued already and not into Sept yet.


  • That was an embarrassing long throw from May, please lets never see that tactic again

    He tries a "long" throw which doesnt beat the first man, who is left under so much "pressure" he's able to chest it down, and then knee the ball to a team mate, all whilst browsing the Oxford University Press

    He has to throw the ball upwards to go over the first defender  :)

    At least we aren't in the bottom 4.

    Big 6-pointer next week.

    Putting your poacher on long throws (which aren't even long) sums up how fucking clueless Dean Holden is imo

    Every player looks lost, after this game I’m not so sure Holden has a grip of the team or style of play.
    What exactly is our "style" of play?

    If Holden’s not punching holes in the wall after this shit show then he’s lifeless muppet.

    Terrible long ball to May by Dobson.

    Such poor clock management here at the end too. Ball's barely been in play for 3 mins 
  • Its only taken 4 games to ruin Asimwe & Anderson. Against Orient on Aug 5th they looked mustard.  

    Well done Holden.
    You are correct Golfie, although  Holden has few options due to lack of  signings, especially in Asiimwe's case.
    Part of blame lies with owner's/ senior management imo.

    Why are we committing so many players forward at set pieces. You need two players on the half way line. Same mistakes over and over again.

    I can't remember the last time I've seen a Charlton side so open on the counter. It was the same vs Rovers at home and at times Port Vale too.

    Tactically something is seriously wrong and I don't think Holden could really complain if he got the boot tonight. Horrible.

    At this point, it might be a valid tactic to just give us set pieces. Because you’re more likely to score from them than we are.
