I hope Fraser’s fit, we really missed him at Bristol Rovers. He would’ve looked right at home staring and static as they got their winner23

My fears have come to roost, lets face it his days should be numbered, even if we appointed JP or even Andy Scott as interim surely could not be worse. Appleton ie complete failure (sorry if this upsets some of you but my honest opinion).
Andy Scott as interim , you are of course having a laugh.
Now if you said Sack Andy Scott 👍0 -

Our owners have a management team in place to avoid "piss poor managerial appointments" The issue is our management team on the football side is incompetent. I don't believe Andy Scott is qualified for the position. Scott was sacked from his last managerial position after getting Aldershot relegated and in his last Director of Football role at Notts Forest he lasted 11 months before getting sacked.East Kent Addick said:Giving this a swerve despite having a season ticket - I can't see anything other than a defeat and if he fails to get any reaction from the players then I can't see how Appleton can stay in post and for the 3rd season running whatever budget we have for transfers will be reduced by having to pay off yet another piss poor managerial appointment - clearly the new owners have observed and learnt nothing from the previous regimes track record with selecting then having to fire the manager. Not that I want Appleton to stay he's completely useless and I wouldn't trust him with a transfer window - he clearly has no tactical nous and no motivational skills
You're only as good as your weakest link and Andy Scott is the weakest link. The ownership will find this out the hard way having to cough compensation package to Appleton and no doubt the next manager that Scott thinks "excels on the grass"
I'm sure Andy Scott is a decent guy to have a pint with. However, as we approach the 3rd transfer window he's overseeing to say I'm less than confident would be an understatement.
Des Buckingham was also interviewed for the Charlton Manager role, but Michael Appleton was the stand out candidate (according to Scott) let's see how that assessment holds up by 5pm tomorrow afternoon.7 -
Ha, my Oxford mate moaning they have 6 wingers out. I told him Kirk was available.4

Just as well they don’t play with wingers then. 😁bolloxbolder said:Ha, my Oxford mate moaning they have 6 wingers out. I told him Kirk was available.1 -
Oxford United fans are really making out like they're going to struggle tomorrow. If we can't beat them with a new manager and with an injury crisis, it would be quite alarming1

They owe us a good performance & a good win
So Come On You Reds
Let's do this

Well season over, midtable dross to look fwd to, yet again. We are a midtable team and the pressure for once is not on us at all as Oxford would expect all 3 pts. We have been bad but surely we cannot lose 3 in a row? Home advantage, 1-1.0

We can! And we will! Oxford to shade a scrappy affair, 0-1.BansteadAddick said:Well season over, midtable dross to look fwd to, yet again.

We will know a lot about this squad if we don’t see a big reaction tomorrow! If it’s a repeat of the past few games they have no pride0

Bottlers will be bottlers, don't matter what year it is!
Crappy New Year.1 -
Look for the players who don’t give a toss tomorrow. It should be lack of skill and nous that loses us the game …nothing else1

The “team” is not good enough, knackered and drained of confidence and hardly any options to shake it up. Can see there being a few goals, but not for us unfortunately. 1-4. Sad times. Really hope I’m proved wrong.0

i've never been more certain of a loss. never bet against my own team til today0

Bit of a 'bogey side' Oxford. However, the mighty Addicks will put them to the sword tomorrow 3-1!1
-
Had a choice between going or clearing out my loft. Chose the latter. A terrible low for someone who has been going since 1979 but I just cannot face it.0

As Jim Davidson once quoted Charlton nil
Cannot see anything other than a comfortable win for a well organised Oxford team.0 -
Even if we do manage to beat Oxford, it will only be papering over the cracks0
-
Paid the reduced ticket price of £20 & sitting in the AC Stand. Anyone know if the free beer target has been hit yet?
I am trying to look on the positive side & even the worst manager can come up trumps once in a while.
I'm going for a narrow 2-1 win.1 -
Can only see a dismal start to the new year, afternoon cold stroll for Oxford. 0-3.0
-
Can’t see anything beyond another loss, TBH. I’m sticking my life savings on an Oxford win. Can’t see where the goals are coming from. Can’t see us keeping a clean sheet.1
-
Put £10 on ox win and another on a draw... Never win when I gamble so 🤞1
-
Despite how awful we are, I just can’t see us losing 3 on the spin right now. Against his old team at home with the players knowing the reaction they’ll get if they put in another bad performance, I think we’ll get a result today.
Score draw.2 -
I think we’ll start the new year the way we ended the last one. 0 - 2.0
-
A draw at 3.56 is worth a punt I'd say.
A loss is always worth a punt...2.8.0 -
This comment worries me....even more so with Alfie only being 50/50 to play! This is from MA in yesterdays pre-match interview-:
"We’re still putting ourselves in a position where we are really competitive and putting ourselves in a position where we can win most weeks and we need to do that against Oxford and start converting these draws at home into wins.”
The bits that concern me I've placed in 'Bold', I do want him to succeed, but comments like this seem so far wide of the mark at this moment in time. Apologies for being negative on the first day of a brand New Year!
