It had to be Portsmouth didn’t it7

I knew I had missed one. That is a truly horrendous record. Probably still order my Northampton tickets now.2

Leading indicator… if we win away in December we have a 67% chance of getting promoted 👀
Because that’s definitely how stats work9 -
Ajose was still part of that squad in 2018/19... Wouldnt have ever thought that one0

Shocking.0

So why are we, as a club, so bad in December? Awful mental health month as it is and it doesn’t help when your football team is rubbish for the duration of it either!0

It’s usually the time of year an injury crisis has exposed our lack of depth and there are a lot of games so it makes it even worseCallumcafc said:So why are we, as a club, so bad in December?

The same applies to other clubs though. We've been competing against the likes of Exeter and Lincoln, not Arsenal and City.NabySarr said:

after Stoptober and Movember the players fully embrace 'Can't remember, December' and get on it for a month.Callumcafc said:So why are we, as a club, so bad in December? Awful mental health month as it is and it doesn’t help when your football team is rubbish for the duration of it either!0 -

It's not just December though is it.

As a club we need to lead the way in backing a winter break in English football11

which is why we have been floundering around in this division for years. poor recruitment, poor management and poor owners.killerandflash said:

On top of the obvious above we also have a habit of signing players who are either injury prone or soon to become injury prone when they become "charltonised"
Just look at someones bright idea to give Aneke a 3 and a half year contract?! a handful of a player when fit but rarely is fit and who i presume is injured right now.0 -
I think the problem is that 2011 win was so good it cursed the month for us from then on. I think we were 1-0 then 2-1 down, won in the last minute with Danny Green's first goal for the club and Wednesday conceded two 90th minute goals against Walsall to lose 2-1. Over the course of a few seconds we went from ending the day with a 3 point lead at the top to a 7 point one. It's like the last minute win at Wembley; Charlton joy must draw from somewhere else and one big day out costs us for years down the line. It's just science.Callumcafc said:Pompey 1-2 Charlton, 11/12/2018

Cal, you aren't being very positive in this thread. I don't like it one bit 😢3
-
Ha. Funny thing is I don’t really think I’m that positive - people get the wrong impression because I try to widen perspectives after a bad result, rather than jump on the dog-pile with everyone else.O-Randy-Hunt said:Cal, you aren't being very positive in this thread. I don't like it one bit 😢2 -
By December out best players are invariably crossing their fingers for a January transfer and trying desperately not to get injured.Callumcafc said:So why are we, as a club, so bad in December?

The 76 goals against stat, is bad enough, let alone a 15% win rate.Chris_from_Sidcup said:

Just out of interest, have we sacked a manager in every December or January in the the last 10 years? ( I know Bowyer was the exception).0 -

I just looked up what he's doing now. Seems to have retired in 2021 when he was 30 and went into coachingForeverAddickted said:Ajose was still part of that squad in 2018/19... Wouldnt have ever thought that one0
