    We're the best defensive team in the league don't you know.

    The only positive thing I can say after freezing my old bones watching this shite is that spongefoot would easily get in to this team, if he is bored in retirement.

    Total and utter crap. A shambolic mess. We look terrified every time they attack, constantly give the ball away in midfield and the front two might as well have stayed in the dressing room.

    It's the same crap week after week. We start with some bluster, the opposition get on top and we get deeper and deeper and become more and more ineffective.

    What is the message from Jones? Players don't know whether to hit the ball long or play through the midfield.

    So many awful individual performances. Campbell is hopeless at wing back, Taylor has done nothing but fall over or give the ball away, has Godden touched the ball?

    Make no mistake if we keep turning up and putting in these sorts of performances we are going to be in a proper relegation battle. Would anyone trust these players to fight their way out of that sort of scrap?

    I am surprised the crowd haven't voiced their dissatisfaction more. They would have been well within their rights to give them pelters at HT. If we go a goal down it's going to get nasty.

    The only good thing about Charlton these days is the upbeats.

    Reckon we should just start going to their games instead
  • Genuinely not sure what people expected today?

    so many comments about how shit we are. Were you expecting us to suddenly be passing it round like prime Barcelona? 

    This is a poor team in a terrible run. The fact it’s attritional crap really shouldn’t be a shock? 
    Leave ‘em alone - it’s their two hour window for the week to have a proper good moan! 
    Are you actually watching this?

    We are so poor it is embarrassing.  

    Clueless, inept and hopeless scarcely begin to describe us.

    The only reason we’re not hearing a crescendo of boos coming through the stream is that there is hardly anybody there……

    I've been watching Charlton long enough to know we're not world-beaters and we're high unlikely to go on 12-match winning runs more than once per Halley's Comet cycle.

    However, as a bare minimum I do expect the players to give a shit, look like they're giving a shit (instead of taking a dump on my Saturday afternoons) and be led by a manager with a coherent, sensible and workable plan.

    Right now I see none of that. That's why I'm having a good moan.

    I’m glad that there’s few of us that can be satisfied at being outplayed by the titans of Crawley, Leyton Orient and Mansfield in the space of 7 days 
    Where did I say I was satisfied?

    I, and others, are shocked by the strong reactions on here given that it’s not the first time recently that this has happened. It’s like people fell into a coma in 2005 and only just woke up.

    We’ve been this bad for years.

    I think he’s suggesting we leave those of us that are moaning alone, not the team. 😁

    To be fair we have been passing it round quite a bit. But it's all along the back row and it's not because we're patiently waiting for the right moment to spring. It's because we a completely devoid of skill, ideas and courage.
  • I can't remember us winning one header. No one challenging in the opposition half to win the ball in the air.  Anderson missed a real opportunity to open the scoring and put us on the front foot. 

    We look like we have no idea how to play together and Mansfield are passing the ball around like we are not there.

    Another dreadfully poor performance with no clear stratagy visible. We will be lucky to get anything from this game.

    Another amazingly ineffective performance from Matty Godden

    Like watching the same first half over and over again.

    Grind out a clean sheet. Offer nothing on the ball. Pump it long.

    This reminds me of the fag end of Pardew's reign and the god awful dozen or so games at the start of Parkinson's.

    Well I can’t argue with your last point, seems the majority of the fans in the ground feel the same seeing how they’ve got away with murder at half time

  • My question is does anybody think that Jones has lost the dressing room and that's why they are struggling.

    The dressing room, the fans, the board and his mind.

    Leaburn keeps the ball on the pitch, hauled down, but no penalty given 
  • Hmm.

    Leaburn dragged down in box and held down by Deji.

    Ref waves play on.

    He's been a shadow of the player he was last season, but he's been out of the squad, so he turned into Roberto Carlos
