Nathan Jones TO DO LIST:
1. Keep us in League One this season.
2. Establish a clear style of play that is a) successful and b) good to watch.
3. Get the defence and defensive midfielders working together cohesively.
4. Get more creativity in the attacking third.
5. Ensure that the gaps and imbalances in the squad are addressed in the summer.
6. Get Dobbo to sign a new contract.
7. Build a team that will at least get into the League One play offs next season.
Great, only alteration I would make is promoting No 6 to No 2...✅1 -

Lewis Coaches said:Wellred said:Lewis Coaches said:peterreeves said:March looks rough with the away games but if Nathan can't get us to beat 3 of the bottom 4 clubs then we deserve to get relegated.
My concern is more will he stay with us if he can't perform a miracle and we get relegated? Plus and more importantly will the main money men in the States decide to bail out as well?
Because we're Charlton this could be a distinct possibility.
I really hope it doesn't get to that situation but this season as many lifers have said has been coming for over 10 years at least.Think this is going to be harder than he thinks,is he the right person for job? We will find out soon enough.
Just needs the right man in charge to give the right direction & just having him in charge will boost the confidence in the players no end
Wonder what Andy Scott’s position is now.
As for the rest of the SMT you are earning money from Charlton , do your work or leave.4 -

reports saying jones wants to bring it hart and cohen (I think I've got the names right), interesting to see if Fleming stays, or jones only gets one of his team. Or maybe we will have a team of four2 -

Not enthused by this appointment as NJ has had two poor appointments more recently than Luton but pleased that the club have made a higher level appointment. I'm even less enthused by the actions of our SMT who by delaying the termination of Appleton have put us in danger of relegation that even the messiah that is Jones might not avoid.
However I will give him and his team my full support and hope that my unenthusiastic post is wrong.

We needed someone to come in whose going to tear the whole mess down and start building from scratch and on paper that's exactly what we've got.
Now let's see what happens on the pitch.0 -

That's the man for us, no more vanilla, v-neck jumper wearing apologists for their own shortcomings.
We will be 'living in interesting times' for sure, but I can't wait...

LargeAddick said:JamesSeed said:Sue Gallop speaking very highly of NJ on Charlton Live. 👍She knows him quite well, and has seen him at work at Charlton, and knows what the young players he worked with thought of him. So yes, I’d say her opinion is possibly more valid than someone who doesn’t know him.21

Which tells me he's more than capable, he just ran before he could get up to a light jogging speed, again.
Hopefully he doesn't make the same mistake three times with us8 -
People will scoff no doubt but NJ has a decent set of players to work with. Can it be improved? Very much so! But these players shouldn't be where they are "on paper" so if he can get a tune out of them then great.
Personally think it is a fantastic appointment and really bold. Hope it works out but no guarantees, those players need to put a shift in as we need a result next week!15 -

Really hope Nathan brings back some optimism, stability and works the squad correctly. We are spending a lot more than most squads in our division. My take is that for whatever reason, Dean was shafted with a lack of quality in key areas of the pitch at the start of the season, Appleton was never going to work despite some improvements, we should now have more in the tank if organised and hard working enough. Good luck Nathan!0

Better appointment than the last few - Good luck NJ.
I will support the club and hope they [and we] give him time.

We have to just hope he can replicate it at Charlton, I think some Luton fan put it quite well that I saw earlier ;

I wish supporters would not get carried away with new manager signing just because he has Charlton history.
Yes he did well with Luton but other wise not been a great success. Proof of the pudding and all that remember. I will make my judgement a month of or two from now.10 -
