    Bit unfair Josh. Jay DaSilva has been absolutely magnificent this season.

    His only weakness is he's not great at defending.
    Seen DaSilva put in some phenomenal defending at left back and for someone who lacks height certainly makes up for it in other aspects. I would say his positioning sometimes leaves a bit to be desired as he always looking to get down the wing and apart from that he has been one of our best players.
    Too often out of position for me - don't think he really suits our style of football. He undoubtedly has talent but he's possibly suited to playing for a more technically gifted side or perhaps to developing a midfield role.

    He does seen to have been targeted in a number of games but this is possibly due to the lack of cover he's given.
    I think all our full backs have suffered this season (and last under KR) with the lack of cover for the full backs with the 4-2-3-1 system. Theoretically cover should come from 2 of the attacking "3" but that's not their natural game, and then it's down to the midfield "2" to come over and help

    Can anyone explain to me the two dismal performance against Wimbledon and Scunthorpe in the light of the other Lee Bowyer results and performances ?

    It’s baffling.

    It's not baffling It's Charlton
    Charlton Athletic Football Club.

    Fine purveyors of inexplicable disappointment since 1905.

    Nice to see the Charlton boss in a shirt and tie not a bloody shell suit

    He's not a Scouser, you know.

    The height of Ezri's boot, it's just as well that Pearce wasn't facing him as that would have been really painful!

    I think it is personnel related

    Defence conceding goals, answer Page back

    Not creating, Fosu back

    These have been the main differences I feel in the odd nature of Bowyers tenure so far

    But we stuck 3 in against Rotherham and conceded only one with neither playing?

    Apparently Harry Kane got a touch on the keepers sliced clearance and is claiming an assist... I don't find these funny, i find it funny they wind up others...

    The average age of the away supporters was about 85. Some of them in shot were at the front because that's as far as they could get on sticks and crutches - so give them a break.

    Sounds like they may have already had one, get well soon.

    The ball to drop? I mean fancy trying to win a one on one with a front man who has been known to hold the ball up under pressure from L1 Neanderthal CBs. Should've done one on his Bromleys and retreated towards his own goal asap.

    Pearce expertly wasting time or was it a new goal celebration? Joey Barton to celebrate his first goal as manager by roundhousing the scorer.

    He got kicked in the bum by Konsa. Accidentally, I think.

    “We’re delighted and I think that we thoroughly deserved the win. The way we stuck together and fought, and every single challenge we went in for we went in to win.

    “Our togetherness was great. I know what we can do in possession and I will never doubt how good we are on the ball. I know we can make something out of nothing with the individuals we have. What I have always said since I took over is that I demand that work-rate, togetherness and fight.

    “If we didn’t fight tonight, Shrewsbury would have run over the top of us like they did at The Valley.

    “That’s what I’ve drummed into the players; if you don’t fight then you won’t win games. We had a lot of young players out there tonight and, for me, they became men. They stood up and no-one has done this to Shrewsbury here. Shrewsbury aren’t pushing for the top two for nothing, so I am delighted.

    “I can’t pick a man of the match. That’s the seventh game I’ve been in charge and the fourth time I can’t pick a man of the match. The players are obviously doing something right.

    “We have shown that we can fight and we’ll have to do that at times. The players that came in – Marshy and Josh made their first starts under me – their work rate was outstanding.

    “They couldn’t have given me anymore and Josh was rewarded at the end with his goal. I wanted Marshy to come in and work his socks off. That’s exactly what he did and he was outstanding.

    “Portsmouth is a completely different game. It’s a completely different game, and completely different atmosphere but we will be there ready and fighting, for sure.”

    That’s the seventh game I’ve been in charge and the fourth time I can’t pick a man of the match.

    And in the other three matches no-one deserved man of the match as they were scheissenhausen.

    You wasn't at the Scunthorpe game or you would have realized that Amos was superb and stopped the score being 0-4 !

    You are correct the other players stunk the place out.

    Caretaker boss Lee Bowyer has praised the attitude of Mark Marshall and Josh Magennis.

    I am sorry it really is not baffling. We are not schizophrenic. We are very inconsistent for a reason. In large part we put out a team of children. Take a look at the Millwall squad. They have their youngsters but they have to earn their place competing with senior professionals not walk into the side because there is no one else.

    Djiksteel, Page, Fosu, Mavididi, Konsa, Kaikai, Dasilva, Ahearne Grant before this campaign have a barely a full season of starting appearances - BETWEEN THEM.

    In recent games we have played Ajose and Zyros Sat - Tues - Sat Tues etc having barely played all season - they have not got the legs. Magennis has been run into the ground all season. He reminds me of a character from "They shoot horses, don't they".

    In a physical league to match physicality you have to run your b*****ks off. We have not had the physicality and depth of squad to deliver that game in game out. I doubt we have even now. If we manage to get over the play off line it is going to require a monumental physical effort to rise to the challenge of the play offs.

    You cannot simply manufacture match sharpness and consistency in a matter of a few weeks.

    In such circumstances we will be consistently inconsistent.

    I have no idea which team will turn up at Portsmouth or whether we will have the legs to even last a play off campaign - if we get over line.

    It is what drives me to distraction - for the cost of a few extra older head and bodies - promotion, in spite of all the nonsense, was an opportunity to be seized. The problem is when you only spend 1.5%
    of your time on the club you own, you are too busy to bother with even the fundamentals of the business.

    Can there have ever be a greater days insanity in the playing history of the club than the "brain fart day" of August 31, 2017? To leave yourself with one recognised striker on the last day of the window with literally no other options was the definition of stupidity.

    Seldom can so much money been frittered away over so many seasons in the search for mediocrity.

    That Bowyer and Jackson have lifted spirits again flatters to deceive. I applaud their and the players efforts and hope they can continue to rise to the challenge for a few more games.

    If we get to Wembley will there have ever been a more barren club executive representation in the history of the game?
    you
    For now we live onto Saturday - "May the odds be ever in our favour".

    Bollox!

    We have the best academy in the EFL & fourth best in the FAPL... and you would prefer to spend other people's money on older professionals. And yet you would be the first to complain about debt at the club.

    Is CAFC barren or has it travelled back to basics?

    No parasitic CEO talking nonsense and disrupting the message to the fans.

    We are certainly not mediocre for we are challenging. If you wish to celebrate failure that is your effing call but the bigger picture suggests that you are simply attempting to leverage your negative views and your negativity AGAINST our club. Why not take stock of the team, reality and the bookies odds and simply recognise the two things going on right now: We have chances and there is a possible takeover.

    As for money frittered away, you are having a laugh! Our club has been losing £5-10M per annum for some ten years now and we are fortunate that somebody is willing to underwrite those losses. You write at great length about trivial failures and yet fail to recognise that there is still a path to Wembley and a great day out. The traditional model which you clearly subscribe to will bankrupt our club. In other words your vision is bankrupt!
