Morecambe find themselves in the relegation zone largely because of their very poor away form. Step up the ever-charitable CAFC. Charlton started flat and found themselves 1-0 down after an errant touch by Aaron Henry provided a chance for Morecambe’s Stockton, whose thirty yard, perfectly-placed strike blew past Ashley Maynard-Brewer into the top left corner. But by halftime, Charlton found a bit more tempo that resulted in an equaliser courtesy of Jes Rak-Sakyi from a Jack Payne cross.
The second half found Charlton with a bit of wind under their sails. The problem was, we conceded twice more to put the contest beyond us. A few personnel changes and a goal from sub Scott Fraser brought us closer, but Morecambe stood resolute.
Poor afternoon of football.

Henry very poor, Charlton very poor!10

Saddest bunch of wankers we've ever had playing for us. Whole club is pathetic from top to bottom. I've got my Cheltenham ticket already but I'll be skipping Port Vale next week. Couldn't stomach any sort of lap of honour from this lot, hope they think better of it and fuck it off. Total shower the lot of them.

In some ways worse than last week's debacle. Awful performance and should not be surprised really after the season we supporters have had to endure.4

That was essentially a showcase of our entire season all in one game.

Useless cnuts!

What a joke this squad are. Mentally weak, rarely fully committed and lacking leaders (as Curbs called out at half time). The Summer cull has to be be heavy. There are lots of players we cannot afford to start with in August.16

I thought Stockton looked good

Johnny Robinson, Stevie Brown, Clive Mendonca, Keith Jones, Mark Kinsella. These were the players I grew up watching in my first season at Charlton.
This current lot are not fit to lace their boots. Embarrassing performance yet again. For shame.9 - Sponsored links:

It was a pile of shite. Got to have a long hard think about whether I'm going to bother going to the last home game of the season next week....currently the answer is No.
Couldn't go today due to other circumstances, so despite buying a ST, I think I've not gone to more than I've attended and it's purely down to the crap football served up most of the season.
Am I buying a ST next season....not unless there is a takeover and ambition shown buy any new owner. If TS is still in charge....then I'm done as far as spending my money onbthe club is concerned! Will we win the last 2 games....no based on what I heard today.5 -
That was rubbish. Morecombe were also rubbish but still scored 3 which tells you how bad things are1
-
Didn’t see the game so hard for me to pass judgement but losing at home to relegation threatened MORCAMBE doesn’t sound good.2
-
Was at the game. Won't be renewing for next year. Predicted a loss anyway. This steady decline is too painful to watch anymore.4
-
Kanu, Fraser and Campbell all looked good when they came on, perhaps it was a mistake to leave them out.Our midfield was completely wrong today, slow, one paced and passing to the oppo more than our players.

Miles was particularly poor. To coin a phrase has his head been turned? Then again everyone was poor. The Henry experiment sadly didn’t work and as FishCostaFortune said a showcase of our entire season in one match.1
-
That was so bad.
No pace, no character, no ability to pass through midfield.
We deserved nothing from the game and that ref made damn sure we got nothing.
That's me finished for this season cos I'm on holiday next week.1 -
It doesn't matter who they bring on as subs as they have usually been crap the week before, hence not starting.billysboots said:Kanu, Fraser and Campbell all looked good when they came on, perhaps it was a mistake to leave them out.Our midfield was completely wrong today, slow, one paced and passing to the oppo more than our players.

The Henry selection was puzzling.

That’s was a new low for me, really poor performance against a relegation team who looked more committed, organised and skillfull all over the pitch. Very few players would be here next year for me but I can’t see there being the funds or expertise to make that happen. More of the same next year I fear. Clare only player I thought put in a shift, Fraser did ok when he came on.3

Very glad I gave that a miss by all accounts0

I don't think so. Holden wants to look at him to see if he is worth keeping.SELR_addicks said:The Henry selection was puzzling.10 -
Dale Stephens speaks very well and would make an excellent TV pundit!4

If he's clearly a step below everyone else, why would he need to play in a game for that to be evident?2 -
He should know the answer to this by now if he didn't know it after ten minutes todayMuttleyCAFC said:

It’s difficult because people have been calling out for weeks since we were safe and had nothing to play for ‘to give the youth a chance’ so in some respect I guess there’s no issue we tried him out.SELR_addicks said:The Henry selection was puzzling.
The issue for me is we seemed to completely change tactically to accommodate that, and for large parts of the game we looked clueless for it.

Disappointing, but while we weren't great going forward, we still scored twice, enough to get something out of the game without the defensive howlers.
Henry wasn't good, but it was right to give him a start. And others weren't much better, Dobson had a poor first half, Hector was all over the place while AMB didn't cover himself in glory with the goals either. Miles struggled too, showing his inexperience, so basically our entire spine was weak.4 -
Knew we were going to lose the minute I heard the stat about how long since they have won. We must be close to some kind of record of allowing teams with awful streaks to break the hoodoo?3

Met my mate in Blackheath and we both decided we had no interest in the game so just stayed in Blackheath having lunch and chatting. Good decision it seems. We decided not to renew next season and just wait and see where the club is at and pick and choose our games next season. Got a feeling quite a few will be doing the same thing.18

Absolutely not. Training can give a false impression as the intensity can't compete with a match.SELR_addicks said:
