Charlton Athletic 1 Gillingham 2

New low..

it’s relegation form. 3 points from 24. 8 games without a win and dumped out of the FA Cup. Today and the next three games were a brilliant opportunity to thrust us back into promotion picture. Yet, now we sit 4 points off the play-off’s, 17 from automatic and 19 points adrift of the top. We have the worst goal difference in the top half of the table, but a game in hand. Against second placed unshakable Shrewsbury.

If the first half at Southend was atrocious, no words exist for today’s first 45. Only Robinson knows why he left Aribo and KAG on the bench. How rubbish is Reeves? No leaders on the pitch. A hapless back four, and when will we learn to not bring back players not fully fit. JFC and Best injured today. Reeves pointless and Magennis lost.

2nd half a change to 4-4-2, Aribo on and impressing. Holmes and Marshall more influential. Overall much better but too bloody late. Wasteful, chasing a game already lost. Robinson I feel is lucky RD has lost interest otherwise he’d be gone, but he’s not interviewing well for the next owners. Is he a man that can arrest a slide?

Apparently a new loan striker signing within a day or so. We will see.

A new low. Gillingham doing the double over us. The decline under Duchatelet has no ocean floor does it?
