Im not a Jones defender or apologist.
Not discussing any other things, games or events.
But today we played well, desperately unlucky not to get a point out of it let alone get beat 3-1.
Again im not going to comment on Jones average record so far but to attack him for today, youd have to be a bit of a numpty.

We played well but still lost
Usually we play wank and lose
Bottom line is the same
3 wins in 23 games under Jones: relegation material

There’s something not right though. It’s like we are cursed, but I think there is still a mentality and confidence issue. Better than last week, but we are going to need to learn how to win and win ugly to start with.

It's a results game. That might be a harsh fact, so be it.
Playing well, and still getting turned over 3-1 to a side like Charlton? Read into it what you will.

We were absolutely wank in both boxes. I couldn’t give a fuck if we played some decent stuff in the middle.
We’re soft as shit at the back, gifting teams piss easy goals while Hogan and Gregory can’t score from 6 yards down the other end.

Is this what we have become?
We have played well but conceded 3 away at Charlton. We showed minor improvement as an attacking unit, but woeful defensively.
Simply not good enough.

We played well in the first-half. The second-half was absolute dog shit.

You're right but he simply can't escape his own record which is fucking abysmal.
He's got 3 games for me. Absolute fucking toss.

The workrate and movement first-half was the best its been for a while, this was however eventually overshadowed by poor defending and largely woeful finishing.

We’ve conceded 5 goals against QPR and Charlton. It’s not good enough. Jones has had 23 games and a transfer window/preseason and he still doesn’t know his best team.

Agreed, we played far better than we have for a while and there was some ‘bite’ about us, but Jebus, we are cursed, what a shocking result from a good performance.

Can't help but think some of you didn't actually watch the game?
We played well in both halves, were unlucky not to win never mind draw. On another day we would have scored 4.
I think we are clearly making a few basic errors at the back and Butland is obviously costing us right now, but play like that most weeks and we will do fine this season.

We played okay. I'd upgrade it from recent games to "about the minimum you expect".
The way they're on about it on Rad Stoke you'd think it was AC Milan against Barcelona in 1994

...... & still lost, which may well be more worrying than the more usual fare, of playing shit & losing.
No points from fixtures against 2 of what will be the, shall we say lesser quality sides in the league.

Better than last week, but we are going to need to learn how to win and win ugly to start with. we have completely lost that ability ever since we became Stokelona !! Remember that crap ? That was the beginning of the end and we are still in the same doenward spiral |

'Play like that' as in, let other teams score at will? We've let in 5 against two sides that will likely be in the bottom 6-7 of the table. I hope your logic bears scrutiny when we play anyone good. |

This team will do well but I think butland and Allen need dropping Obviously a different opinion but Woods and Allen worked well imo Once Gregory went off we were weaker Hopefully Etebo will return next game Carabo cup next week so lets see who is selected for this one Lots of changes ? ot sure it helps |

If you watched that and thought Charlton deserved to 3-1 you are full on fucking mental. |
