Can’t even convert a penalty, the whole scenario. So predictable. When you sell or move on the huge volume of players WH have, without adequate replacements.
This is what happens, defence nieve, like a colander in WH have failed to get in the people required, the bench is ludicrous, nobody to bring on.
I said WH won’t get promoted, with what they have, totally overestimating themselves, and underestimating everyone else.
Massive possession stats so what? It’s totally clear lots of clubs will surrender the ball, and sit in.
I’ve seen nothing to change my mind, WH have a week left to get in players, they are already well behind the lead.
Only one thing in their favour 44 games to go!

I couldn't agree more, Joyful. And, I couldn't have been more wrong on this particular match. A stroll in the park it wasn't. Charlton's tactics were far superior. They set out to hit us on the rebound, and, boy, did it work. It's clear that our manager hasn't got a clue, and his players are not playing for him.
Sadly, his removal should have happened in May. Even if he went tomorrow, it's too late. We need an urgent change in management, and several new players, otherwise it's a repeat of last season. I can't see us going down, but forget promotion.

It was like watching the Chuckle Brothers play. To me, to you. No movement or pace. Solomon and Bowen seemed to be trying, from where I stand, but it is difficult to see exactly what's happening, especially the first half! I think I've overdone my optimism the last few days. Reality bites!

Even I'm struggling to be positive about that load of Pony!

They should get rid of Nuno now. They have bought too late in the window, and are throwing them straight into the team. Ridiculous tactics.
I am just glad I do not pay to watch that rubbish anymore!!

Whilst I have been banging on all week about the manager and his park the bus tactics, on the face of it today it was a poor performance by the players, and the manager wasn't as culpable. But, as TL says, it is obvious the players are not playing for him.
He definitely doesn't inspire anybody, and there is a good chance that he is the reason why we seem to have a mass exodus of our players. I would also want to know what the new coach is doing on the training pitch, as he seems a definite downgrade on the popular Paco.
