If he is not sacked tonight then the owners want us to go down 

Fortune 82nd Minute

Surely that prick Appleton isn't going to be interviewed on charlton tv?

Who are we going to get in? Nobody wants the job, nobody wants to work with the clowns in charge. Look at all those managers who turned us down, I’m sure there were many more we didn’t hear about who said thanks but no thanks. For those who said they wanted to give Methven the benefit of the doubt, how’s it going? Are you convinced he’s an amateurish chancer yet or do you need more time?

The whole team staying out after Appleton walked down the tunnel is a message. They don't want him here either 

As crap as Appleton is , most of them can bugger off too 

Harsh. A class won’t learn with a shit teacher. 

I don’t think professional footballers need to be taught how to mark .  He’s rubbish , he has to go .  

Players will perform to a a higher standard under a good manager. Otherwise we wouldn’t need managers.

Has Louis Watson shagged Appleton's missus? How the fuck is Fiorini getting on ahead of him.

Ladapo (who has been a massive disappointment so far) was dead on his feet from 65mins. Why no Kanu?

Not picking Louie Watson has been a massive factor in Appleton’s downfall (amongst many to be fair).

I’m convinced that the interim/new manager will make a material improvement simply by picking him in the XI.

Yeah Fiorini is definitely not it yet. Can he get minutes with the U's?

Appleton said he's one of the most talented players he's worked with...... Erm!

Taxi for Mr Appleton pleeeeeease.

4 points off relegation with Reading having a game in hand AND have to play us in a couple of weeks. 

It could get very messy very quickly.

no chance he’ll be out for post-match interview…….that goose is burnt to a cinder!

Fans deserve better from owners, directors, management, and players. It is gutting how we struggle year on year these days and not get better. 

The Red Robin

I didn’t think we were in any real danger of relegation before tonight (naive I know). I do now.

Please, please go Appleton. You are without any doubt the worst manager we have ever had.
Scott must go. He has no clue about players.
We are still signing injured    no marks.
Methven tell the owners we are all doomed and to give it up. That's you last job. You can go as well. Calling America  its time for you to all go. Sell it or wind it up. We need to start again.  Possibly in non league and at a small stadium.  It is getting ridiculous playing at the valley in front of a handful of disheartened diehards.
Reset  get realistic and rise again.

I said to my brother during the game that life is really hard for a lot of people these days. People are choosing to spend their money and/or limited free time supporting this team, they deserve so much more than they are getting from pretty much everyone involved in the playing side of the club right now.

Unsurprisingly sickening.
When do season tickets go on sale?
