[shrubbery]

The players are a fucking disgrace pretty much to a man. They need to stand up and be counted but they don’t seem to have the balls. Embarrassing.

 

[Champagneblade]

The crowd have let the players off easy this season.

Blamed the manager.

Not now.

73 shots
13 on target
1 league goal

How shameful is that from the players?

Yes, some are headers but in the main don’t be lazy and get your head over the ball.

Jesus Christ, only 17% of shots at the goal actually reach the goal and only 1.3% go in.

Absolutely disgraceful.

30,165 there as well. Never fail to bottle the big occasions do they?

 

[Dave]

Oh I'm sorry everyone. But that was just as fucking bad as under selles. Pathetic defending for the goal. Absolutely embarrassing. None of the "big" players stood up except Tanganga and he can't lead a one man defense. (He was also at fault for the header on the goal). Absolutely woeful.

 

[Belvedere Blade]

Another awful performance a specially up front. Utd look very weak final third. Gap opening at bottom of table.

Still not a Wilder fan then.

[Nedski]

Embarrassing. All the ridiculous hype and attention bringing wilder back for 1 shot on target. All the buzz and excitement ruined in the first game.

Wilder's boys - Burrows, Peck and Campbell - were fucking shit. Another goal down our left. Robbo finally bombed out for being shite yet Burrows plays every minute of every game.

I hope the players feel embarrassed and humiliated but theyll all be out on the piss tonight continuing to not give a shit.

 

[Danetheblade]

Still not a Wilder fan then.

Mk1 Wilder definitely. Good meme though. Think it hit's the views of most fans wanting him back.

 

[Bobby b]

Well, we weren't exactly robbed was we?, we really didn't come close to scoring, there wasn't a cohesive attack, and the defence looked shaky on every counter attack. Godfrey doesn't look capable at full back,

 

[The Crab]

We are actually going to get relegated.

Pigs singing mind the gap. I would in their position too.

What a shitshow.

Not so much lions run by donkeys. More dipsticks run by plonkers.

I don’t think there’s any manager can get a tune out of these. And COH can fuck off into room 101 with Mike McDonald and Paul Woolhouse

 

[The Crab]

Wilder bolted down the tunnel as well

He’s good at that

 

[Kev Gee]

I think we're going down aren't we?

Agree with all this except the Wilder hype bit. Really poor start, nothing of note to give us a bit of hope. CW is going to be very busy to achieve anything with this lot.

 

[TheSecondComing]

Nowt to do wi Charlton that

 

[The Crab]

Can we sack Wilder after just one game?

Pep couldn’t get a tune out of these

I wouldn’t dare show my face.

But they’ll be on Eccy Road giving it the big ‘un

 

[RobboBlade]

Players with no right to be starting next game:
Burrows
Godfrey
Peck
Ohare

Could do with binning off more but this is a good start

 

[luffenhamblade]

Mk1 Wilder definitely. Good meme though. Think it hit's the views of most fans wanting him back.

Yeah if they thought he was some sort of wizard. Most of us just knew Selles was done and Wilder best option available. Definitely no wizard after today’s shiteshow!

 

[Champagneblade]

Fucking twats.

Seriously.

As bad as it has been, we could have been 9 points off second if these players had an ounce of professionalism.

It was all set up, every single result went our way. Yet we couldn’t have an ounce of composure at all could we? Again, 1 shot on target out of 13.

Absolute disgrace.

I’d be getting them in doing shooting practice on Sunday until they couldn’t walk.

 

[jt64]

Ah, he's not lost the knack of serving up piss poor football decided by the one goal, it's like he never left

 

[Pittsburg Blade]

Firstly, got to say Charlton played well. Very solid and organized in defence.
The got hard runners in midfield and all their players look composed.
Did all the necessary blocks and niggly fouls to slow the game well.

For us it looks like a calamitous mistake to lose Anel, Vini and Moore.
I don’t think we won one single header all game at either end of the pitch. Something that Anel and Kiefer did all the time.
We had nobody to hold the ball in attack.
Very much lacking speed on the break which allowed Charlton to get back and cram the defence every time.

Looking more and more like a relegation dogfight this one and I’m not sure we got what it takes.
Absolutely do not seem capable of creating or taking our chances.

Still… good news about Inverness.

 

[Chilttheblade]

It’s not a question of balls , they don’t have the ability to. Who signed them? It’s that person that needs to go

Great win for Inverness there

 

[The Crab]

Yeah if they thought he was some sort of wizard. Most of us just knew Selles was done and Wilder best option available. Definitely no wizard after today’s shiteshow!

You are probably right, but here’s an alternative theory.

We spoke to others, they saw the set up and said “fuck that”

Wilder was never going to say no to be fair to him

 

[Addison]

Nothing has changed apart from resurrecting the same old problems. Peck Hamer and COH in midfield doesn't work. Peck slows play down and gave them 2 good opportunities. He usually does each game. Hamer strolled around again COH ran down blind alleys. Burrows defensively gets worse with each game. Where is the bite and pace in the middle. Its all so slow very much like towards the end of last season with no one leading them on the pitch. Mee needs to be installed as Captain and the manager seriously needs to consider a formation change because we are heading down playing like that. Need to go 3 at the back now.

We just hoofed it forward at times to Moore. Problem was he is no longer playing for us.

Well done to the players they have achieved the new record of the Club for the first time in its history losing its first 6 games. The manager seems averse to having a decent LCB. Why was Tanganga who played so well on the right deployed on the left. It is these bewildering decisions that led to criticism of CW last time. 30,000 at home and they put in a performance like that. Too many players allowed to be in their comfort zones. Need to be in tomorrow and out running in the rain for a few hours so that they can feel like the poor sods who've spent their hard earned money watching that this afternoon.

 

[Ginger Gnome]

About the only time Charlton looked worried was when players ran at them, but that only happened three or four times all game.

 

[Danetheblade]

Yeah if they thought he was some sort of wizard. Most of us just knew Selles was done and Wilder best option available. Definitely no wizard after today’s shiteshow!

We’ll agree to disagree bud, it’s been done to death. Didn’t watch today, just checked in from time to time on shoutbox and checked stats. Dire straights this season me thinks!

 

[skegblade]

He'll proberbly look to come off after the hour mark

Wilder bolted down the tunnel as well

Makes a change hes noted for having a go at opponents
He's prob gone for a peroni

Agreed
