I am heartbroken!

What has happened to my beloved Charlton? 4 years ago, we were a mid-table premier League team, now we need a miracle if we are not to be condemned to League 1. Administration is on the horizon, and things are not going well at all. Our manager -Phil Parkinson- sits down for 90 minutes each game, and the only person on the bench rthat is enthusiastic and spurring on the players, is Mark Kinsella -Asisstant Manager-. When your assisstant manager is the only one up and about on the bench, you have to worry. So I ask, why was Parkinson hired in the first place? Lets look back shall we? Alan Pardew's final 8 games in charge took just 3 points, and all of those came from draws [2-2,1-1 and 1-1], then when he sacked due to lack of form, Phil Parkinson was appointed caretaker manager. The 8 games he had in temporary charge, won us another 3 points, with 3 draws, and 5 losses, then on 2nd January 2009, he was appointed full-time manager. How can it be that the same form gets one manager sacked, is then deemed good enough to reward another? We then went 19 games without a win, before finally beating close rivals Palace 1-0 at home. 2 wins and 2 draws in 6 games, gave us the hope of a great escape, but losing 2-1 at home to Doncaster Rovers, leaves us 9 points adrift at the bottom, and 12 from safety with only 11 games to go. It is killing me to see Charlton down where they are, and nothing upsets me more than the thought of us going bust, which is a big possibility shouold we go into administration.
