Roddy is the main conduit for Thomas on the football side. On the admin and day today not so sure. So I've been informed.

I don't see what day to day contact Roddy would have with the players, surely they only deal with the coaching staff?

Unless they're slagging him off for signing them!

Probably just the blame game. Fans like myself have focused on Roddy and how he got into this role and how. Easy for the players I guess to blame them as well if of course my source is correct. Especially when a large amount of the fan base are questioning.  For me if Nigel does go and Jackson and Euell take over and we improve massively then I think we will know what was wrong, then I won't be wasting anymore effort asking for the background to Roddy's appointment. If Thomas simply gets another stooge in situ and we carry on with this appalling form then I think the structure and project mission with Roddy can be seriously questioned. And then well. Colarado is a jolly long way away eh? But I would still clear the lot of them out if I was in Thomas shoes and go for Michael Beale or someone of his ilk.

I see a tweet from last night from a fan who said "why leave it so late to bring on Conn Wash think he came on and changed the game"

Alex Gilbey and Connor liked the post!

Gilbey and Washo are old mates from their Newport County days together.

It's because of Washo that Gilbey signed for Charlton.

Surprised they are still mates then.

Morgan: 4.5 - Only really got going late on when Accrington dropped deep and gave him space to play. Looked like he was hiding a bit 1st half and that forced Mac to kick long. Could have easily backed Gunter up for 2nd goal (that's what they did...double up) and was very weak for 3rd goal. 

I have watched that second goal a few times, Morgan did cut off the cutback to Gunter's left so has learned from  Matthews getting caught by that, his bigger error was to not scream for someone to cover his original position because that was exactly where the goal scorer came in.

Don't disagree on the third goal though, he should have come to his man much quicker and possibly taken a tactical booking had he not needlessly been booked first half. Also not sure how a foul was given for his tackle for the first free kick goal... That was a good tackle probably 60:40 in Morgan's favour.  

I was in West Stand upper in line with that tackle- looked nothing wrong from there. Turned to my son and said I bet they score from this. For once........

Pell's second strike was definitely over the line. Did anyone else see Plymouth's comical goal last night?

Sorry, but that game should have been abandoned. The ball just wasn't moving & their 3rd goal came directly from a Bolton player not being able to move the ball in front of him. 

all our games should be abandoned then.

This doesnt mean it as a stone cold fact but I do believe these players arent playing for manager anymore and have lost total faith.

I remember after Stockley scored against Fleetwood, the camera panned to the celebrations on the bench, and Connor Washington could not have looked more miserable sat there.

To be fair he was in Fleetwood...

Something smells fishy ?

Their number 9, Bishop is about 10x the target man Stockley is.

Think the third was in injury time, and after a late monsoon, so a bit pointless to call it off at the end.

I have just joined the site as my grandson is a member of the Academy and should gain his first Wales U15 cap in a couple of weeks.
I have watched  three or four games and, apart ftom from Sheffield Wednesday, it has been crap.
Last night was unforgivable. The players seem devoid of ideas, de-motivated, playing without a plan, lacking energy and mostly letting the shirt down. One guy in particular looked like an out of control sky diver trying to swat a fly.
To me the team lack physicality and endeavour 
Next season it  could be playing Bromley and on current form they would lose.
I am not anti Charlton. I think it is a lovely club which has lost its way.
Sorry but that's how I see it.

Blimey mate that's a hell of a first post. Come on here and tell us what we already know that our team is shite ! Ofcourse it is its bloody Charlton it's what we do 😂

On a serious note welcome and hopefully your grandson enjoys his time with us. By the way when he get to 18 if he does off to another club following the bucks we know who to speak too 🤭🤭🤭

Yet, incredibly, they are still mates.

I'd go with something like this against Sunderland:
                                          Henderson
Matthews                   Lavelle              Famewo                    Purrington
                                             Watson
                               Dobson                   Gilbey
                                             Lee
                              Leko                    Stockley

I wouldn't. 

I'd go flat 4-4-2

We certainly need to ditch the wingers. I think it is what is killing us more than anything else.
