    not many stranger things have happened

    3 wins would certainly perk up a few observers but this threadbare squad would still need to sustain 1.67 points per match from then to the final game - something to which it hasn't come close in far too long - to be in with any chance of 6th place.
    Plus there is the ever present instability emanating from Roly HQ - what repercussions await us from the March 4th deposition?
    Will Roly throw his toys out of his bathchair yet again?

    Definitely no.

    When Robinson took over we were 11th and 2 points below the play offs (and 1 point behind Millwall).

    We are now 13th and 8 points off of the play offs (and 8 points behind Millwall)

    Not that the play offs should be seen as any sort of achievement in this division.
  • Yes we can BUT don't think we will ............BUT is the hope that kills you.

    45 points to play for, 8 points off play offs when put like that it doesnt sound too bad but would mean us winning 10/11 out of the 15 and hoping the teams above us slip up, just cant see it happening ill remain to think that its a possibility all the time its possible but a real poor showing currently sitting 13th in league 1 just another failure by Katrien, to add to her collection.

    Not a failure, It's a learning experience to be instantly forgotten.
  • Never say never, but I wouldn't put much on it.

    Been saying all season and been having bets through the season to finish top 6.
    Keep thinking we will go on a run, but the thing is we can't even get back to back wins.
    Even with the players we've got I think we could of Easy had another 4 points on the board

    The thing is argument sake we get playoffs we would get rolled 236638-2 over the 2 legs so a pretty pointless exercise

    We should aim for a further 34 points from our remaining 16 games. It doesn't guarantee the playoffs but it would've got us in in all of the last six seasons.


    34 points is

    11 wins, 1 draw, 4 losses
    10 wins, 4 draws, 2 losses
    9 wins, 7 draws

    34 points from 15 games is

    11 wins, 1 draw, 3 losses
    10 wins, 4 draws, 1 loss
    33 points from 14 games is

    11 wins, 3 losses
    10 wins, 3 draws, 1 loss
    33 points from 13 games is

    11 wins, 2 losses
    10 wins, 3 draws


    8 points from 13 games (50 from 46) is

    8 draws, 5 losses

    If we can just start scoring goals and not conceding any I think we can do it fairly comfortably. 10 wins on the spin is not unreasonable.
  • More chance of a relegation fight than play offs.

    Unfortunately, more likely by the week.
  • More chance of Kiera knightly asking me to father her child.

    We will reach the playoffs. To get us out of League Two. Always improving our rankings.

    Well at least we can stop worrying about whether we can make the playoffs.
    Can we close this thread, and start a relegation one instead please?
  • Of course we can, if we buck our ideas up...

    Sadly, it's most likely in the Fourth Division (in old money) next season.

    What frigging planet are you on? Were you there tonight? Quite clear that most of the players have thrown in the towel and realise - quite correctly - that we may have a more realistic target, avoiding relegation!!!
    Also, I don't give a toss what the 'official' attendance figures given by the club were, if there were more than 6,000 there tonight I would be surprised.
    This is indeed the lowest I have ever felt since first following this club way back in 1967. I genuinely fear that the incompetents who run Charlton will soon be overseeing a fall into the third tier - and it could take years, if ever, to reclaim at least a place in the Championship.
    It amazes me when I hear so-called Charlton fans defending the regime - unbelievable!!!

  • I genuinely feel we can get relegated - we're hopeless and in disarray.
  • No!

    Yes or is it no, no,yes, perhaps maybe.

    Yes, it has to be or not yes but no.!

    had a glance over previous seasons the last 4 league 1 seasons to be precise.

    2015/16
    playoffs 74 - 85 points
    relegation 34-46 points

    2014/15
    playoffs 69-89 points
    relegation 40-50 points

    2013/14
    playoffs 74-86 points
    relegation 42-47 points

    2012/13
    playoffs 74-79
    relegation 32-48 points

    from that i get;

    52 points will keep us safe ( need another 10 )
    playoffs would need 74 ( need 32 points out of a possible 42 )

    10 wins,2 draws and 2 losses.

    playoffs aint gonna happen.

    Never were tbh.
  • Agree - think the constant misfiring with draws instead of wins meant we were pretty much out of it about a month ago.
