We started comfortably at Lincoln, whose home form has not been good. But when Lee went off injured, we fell to pieces. Kirk moving into a central position with CBT coming on did not work in the slightest. We limped into halftime, lucky to be level. Why wasn’t the formation changed earlier?
In the second half, we came out with Leko centrally and Kirk back out on the wing. We were only marginally better. Lincoln put on the pressure, which resulted in an own goal from Stockley. Lavelle equalised soon after, putting the ball in from close range after a corner scramble. We couldn’t build on that.
The performance, overall was calamitous.
After the international break, and with a couple of wins under our belt, we expected that we’d take advantage of the opportunity. We didn’t. We didn’t look prepared once Lee went off. We’ve taken a step back again. Massively disappointing.

I fear the worse.
Fucking amazing song.
What a time to be alive.
we’ll do well to have half that next season if we stay up
i hope none of these players are with us in 2 years
cos they’re fucking lame and punchless
Complete and utter guff
the manager has to go because he isn’t getting a tune out of these clowns
shameful Times for our club
beyond pathetic
Dreadful team performance.
Back to square one. Without Elliott Lee our confidence drained visibly and we reverted to our usual hoofball. We barely strung 2 or 3 passes together for the rest of the game. Thoroughly outplayed by a weakened Lincoln side. Gutted we couldn’t hold on for a point but in all honesty we got what we served - a 2-1 thrashing.
I don’t easily give up on players but Charlie Kirk is taking the piss. Ineffective out wide, he got the chance to play in the number 10 role and was even worse there. Towards the end of the game, with a chance to spring a counter attack but passed the ball meekly to a Lincoln midfielder.
Will we have a new manager by Tuesday? I very much doubt Sandgaard will pull the trigger but if Adkins can’t build momentum from the results at Fleetwood and in the Pizza trophy, and can’t organise and motivate our team better for a winnable match today you have to wonder what’s wrong.
He cannot possibly be happy with the situation, whatever has caused it.
For his own well-being, I think Adkins and Charlton need to part company.
we haven’t played for 10 days, yet look so unfit.
DO NOT ARGUE CHAPS!
If I could sack them all including Adkins and the coaching staff I would.
Absolutely zero connection to anyone Charlton over the last two years.
The players are proven good enough for this level. The manager isnt bringing that out. Hes got to go.
Get a new manager and allow him to bring his own coaches in
If Adkins was a dog, any owner would have to book that dreaded appointment with the vet now.
It's inhumane.
We only had seven players on the pitch with any passing interest in the result of the game.
