Charlton Athletic 1 Chesterfield 0

On another day when the divison’s top sides showed promotion qualities, Charlton finally awoke from a slumber to win late against the division’s bottom side. It was a welcome win, and much needed, but can’t conceal another dismal negative performance from Slade’s side.

As one of my commenters told me the CARD flag day was a little flat along with the rest of the atmosphere, but hardly surprising when the real crowd, we are reliably informed, was less than 7,000. Some of the pictures of rows and blocks of empty seats is the legacy that Duchatelet and Meire are building for our great club. Truly shameful. 

Ajose did little to suggest he can get 5 goals this season, let alone 20, but it was his replacement Lee Novak, who broke Chesterfield’s hearts scoring late against the team he starred for on loan last season. Slade must feel very relieved, and suddenly as we sit 14th in the table, we can look up and not down, but we are not in the same room as Scunthorpe, Bolton, Bradford and Sheffield United.

    I was there. It was a totally inept performance from an inept team managed by a clueless coach. I salute the die hards who witnessed this debacle and wonder how much longer they will remain loyal to the team. I like so many was hopeful with Slade’s appointment and also of the new signings but unfortunately this has not worked thus far and I fear another relegation battle. The highlight for me was not our goal but a certain Mr Andy Hunt who was interviewed at half time.My how we need 11 Andy Hunts on the field proudly sporting our colours.

    What is an exenophobe ? A fear of your ex girlfriend? Even if your could construct a sentence that made sense and spell a word you clearly don’t understand, i don’t see what connection you have made between the nationality of our owners and the criticism of them? Where in the report does it mention that the problem is because they are from Belgium? Nowhere. I think you might be a bit of a Walloon yourself a2c. Bloody foreigners. (Sarcasm, in case you missed it).

      H – sorry in my morning routine I regularly just sweep a2c’s rubbish in the bin. For others H is responded to another illiterate rant.
