Then lose our next 4-5 games,
Will then be in real trouble and by point with the mentality in the squad it could be too late.
Really hope the board have that meeting today, see sense and sack him now.
He has lost the support well and truly, even if we win on Tuesday he has still lost the support. maybe 1% still want MA as our manager.
I cant stand a manager who has no passion for this club and stands on the touch like with his hands in his pockets looking clueless and out of ideas.3 -
I really hope the way T watson and Edun have performed recently shows the SMT they have to get replaced ASAPbring Asiimwe back in for now and get a replacement first choice lb/lwb in before window shuts !!!3

you can see he trys and gets stuck in at times just dont think he is good enough for times like this when we are in a relegation scrap and especially for where we want to be and pushing to get out of this league1 -

What was opinion on the midfield three of Coventry, Dobson & Bakinson? Which of these was the more attacking of the partnership?

You have to read between the lines of what they do say. For ages they've identified lack of leadership/ability to organise, especially in defence. Brownie has been loudly asking why we seem to fold so easily but was doing so earlier too when Holden was in charge. The nearest they've come to in terms of Appleton team selection is the failure to utilise Louie Watson better, otherwise they tend to highlight- quite rightly given both have done the job- of coherent team selection when half the most important players are injured or unable to do the full 90.
However one interesting thing came from Curbs and I think it was pre-match. He picked up on Appleton's massively ill-advised comment about the club needing to move on from the past (or whatever his words were, but were understood to refer to Curbs and the opportunity to take advice from him). Curbs was typically diplomatic in his response, but it was clear that Appleton actively doesn't want to engage with them. Holden apparently did.
Curbs did point out that there is hardly any time to organise a new plan before the next match and that the atmosphere will be difficult. He was just stating a fact.13 -

I was a bit concerned that Dobbo looked a bit "neutered" out on the right and that Coventry while a very good player may not offer the defensive protection that Dobbo does.1 -

First half they were excellent
Second half I really don't know what happened, whether Burton changed tactics to deal with them, or they just thought "Fuck that bald idiot" as they were barely involved0 -

For me, there need to be some changes and quickly if we are to get results. Firstly Tennai Watson has to go, can't defend when he's a full back, can't cross when he's a wing back, Maynard Brewer is the next one, any ball that moves in or around the six yard box, he retreats to the goal line, in the hope that because he's a good shot stopper he will have a better chance. Jones, has played well this season, up to the point he was out with an injury, he hasn't played well since returning, is he still not 100% ? Thomas, he looks better in the three man defensive unit but his positional sense is awful. That's four, we've brought in two, REG and Gillesphey need to start and with Hector out, a centre half is the next one who should be bought in the window.0

I never went or got to see the game so I am only going on the result & what I have read on here
I said before it will take a few training sessions & a couple of games to bed in the new players & getting them playing the way Appleton wants
But if the results & style of play doesn't improve soon Appleton has to & will go
Personally I don't think his good enough he hasn't got the best out of the players we already have bringing in all these players & not being able to get the best out of them is just a waste of money
Hopefully he will prove me wrong2 -

If he's not good enough to salvage the season, the last thing we need to do is allow him the opportunity to keep on keeping on.
Giving his replacement, who I really hope would be a significantly better coach/manager, the earliest opportunity to get the team playing their way is the best way of staying up...
*This statement works however you read it, as neither Appleton nor I are up to it, indeed, we may only have the vaguest notions of what it may be, and it would really waste everyone's time if we stand back allowing continued fumbling and bumbling in the elusive search for progress towards it....1 -
It's all making me feel soo tired.4

On the right today we showed far less threat.We should play Asiimwee if we are going with wing backs.1 -
Non-Addicks in the pub couldn't believe we didn't win. Burton are the worst team we have played all season, utterly clueless all over the park (keeper excepted). Yet we lost? They even managed to miss a sitter.2

First time this season I have a slight worry we could end up in the 4th tier.
I had naively convinced myself before the match yesterday that we would see a new Charlton then what we have seen for large parts of this season.2 -
oohaahmortimer said:Too much crab /safety first football with us , no one wants to gamble, Louie Watson is a front foot positive footballer, yes he may not be in the best of form but looks to make things happen .
With CBT gone we have limited ability to make something out of nothing , Rak Sakyi saved us from this shitstorm last season .
We may just need a new manager bounce to get us to safety .
More comfort chocolate , more poo, no sleep ffs
i can highly recommend Marks & Spencer’s chocolate covered custard creams , not for the faint hearted , super expensive 6 for £2.50 ffs can be sickly if you’re not hardcore but it’s a king of biscuits and worth a gamble , enjoy .0 -

Having invested a few quid in fresh players, I am sure the owners will give Appleton a couple of games to see how they respond to him.
Thing is though, he is seemingly so devoid of passion, even perhaps of interest, not to mention the inability to coach and organise a defence that I think that would be a mistake, he should be sacked today to give a new man at least a few hours with what must be a pretty demoralised squad, to engender some confidence and organisation2
