    Sacking by committee. Can’t we just have one man make the decision?

    I don't think the issue is Roddy as a person per say, it just seems to be the whole set up. TS has effectively appointed himself as the CEO despite having experience of running a club and seemingly leaning on Roddy for too much. We need someone like curbs as director of football if you are going to have this current set up

    To be fair to Adkins, he did ok with another manager's team. What went wrong in the summer and how much of that was down to him I don't know but he is now toxic and only damaging us by staying. But I still want to know who was responsible for the summer. Somebody or somebodies were. For Roddy to have the influence he seems to have, he seems to have a very secretive role. I would like to know exactly what that role is. If he has nothing to do with this, we need to know.

    Ormiston Addick gave his opinion and forecast that it would be awful. He was laughed out of town.
    Five months later we can see that he was right.
    I don't see why people are having a go at him now. 
    Personally I say 'well done' to the bloke.
    Because his original post was littered with factual errors.  The same way your brother doesn't get kudos for predicting doom and gloom when he has done it every day for the last 40 odd years. He is going to be right sometimes.

    All this gratitude that Sandgaard saved us is wearing very thin now. I've been very patient waiting a month for NA"s sacking. Now have to seriously question what the owner is thinking

    If you’re gonna get sacked you usually don’t know you’re gonna get sacked.  So I wouldn’t take Adkins saying “it’s all positive with TS” too seriously.

    please go, his taking our once proud club to new realms of embarrassment, don't even like his fake over positive personality, hardly even acknowledges the fans. TS has blood on his hands for not sacking him a month ago

    Has he finally found out he and the people he is surrounded by are useless?

    In loving memory of the 57 twats that gave me a LOL when I pointed out what a shit appointment Adkins was back in March.


    Bravo. Well worth it just for the I told you so

    Utterly baffling if NA survives for the Sunderland game....

    Think everyone has had hunches that turn out to be right every now and then 

    But maybe it's him calling fellow supporters Twats, for not being in total agreement with his initial rant, that's gonna trigger people.

    Jimmy, I think it’s the unnecessary gloating and the timing of it mate. We’re all hurting at the moment and all now know the situation.

    Where was all the noise when we lost 1 out of ten in our run in? 

    I'll hold my hands up and say I got it wrong about Adkins, but giving it the 'I told you so' over Charlton's failure, to other Charlton fans, is just muggy.

    I also think there's much more to it. Can't all just be Adkins

    I doubt his missus and the commercial director will be adding any input into sacking Adkins, so what else could they be chatting about?

    Doesn’t mean he won’t get sacked, suspect it’ll be done in the morning

    He's got to go. 

    But our club will continue to fail until we have a structure in place with people that know what they're doing. 

    Our problems started with the recruitment and went downhill from there.

    Contract extension announced in the morning. Looking forward to play offs in league 2.

    I know people call it the dreaded vote of confidence, but when you’re so vocal about getting to the prem and into Europe, then take the same approach when it goes to shit. I’ve never seen our fan base (apart from the RD clowns) have such a significant one way verdict on a manager like this one.

    our lowest ever position, where’s the communication?

    I had a feeling in the summer things were not right but I can't hand on heart say I thought they would be this bad. It was enough to persuade me not to get a season ticket as at my age I am fed up with the collective mis management of my club since the sacking of Powell. And the sanctimonious comments from people within the club who should be embarrassed we are in League One. I would still have got one a few years ago. I am not going to watch us at the Valley, which is a decent drive with predictable traffic problems and come home and kick the dog or take it out on my family. I watch the stream which I can turn off.

    If and when Adkins goes, I hope he names and shames the bastards on the playing staff who are fucking it up the worst. It's them I hate the most (whoever they are) (I have some ideas)

    Might help if he actually acted like a captain and leader to be honest. 
    I never liked captains in the forward positions.
    100%, forward players should be nowhere near the captains armband.

    Stockley yelling that is a positive for me, at least he sounds like he gives a shit.

    Who are Wayne and Raelyn ?
    Raelyn is Thomas’ missus and Wayne would be Wayne Mumford, commercial director
