I have refrained from discussing Charlton's current predicament because frankly its a nightmare, this whole season has been a nightmare, first Pardew seemed to lose the plot then Parkinson took over, and was given a trial period to see if he was up to the job, so after 8 games and no wins the standard required had been set and so Parkinson was installed as manager! Genius! although to be honest I don't think the Club could afford to pay him off, so he got the job. In the Autumn we had the prospect of a Dubai based investment which looked to be huge financially and would have seen us in the big league, sadly the credit crunch hit that dream with the investors just hours from signing, this seemed to plunge the club as a whole into a deep depression and we now find ourselves marooned at the bottom of the league and heading for relegation to League 1. Sadly we have too many players that are either not up to it or do not have the bottle for the fight, also add in the loss of a 3 good players through injury its not good, Still we have the joys of Bristol Rovers away next season which means a trip to my Aunt and Uncle's for a damn good feed, and with any luck Millwall will fail to go up, all we need now is for Palarse to disappear down the plug hole and everything would be fine.....
