ADDICKS manager Johnnie Jackson was disappointed with his side’s 4-0 League One loss at Ipswich on the final day, saying that it was a “timely reminder” of where they “are as a group”.
Addicks’ debut-making goalkeeper Nathan Harness had to pick the ball out of the net following two strikes from leading scorer Wes Burns and one each from Tyreeq Bakinson and a typical poacher’s goal from James Norwood.
Jackson, whose side ended the campaign 13th, said: “It was a timely reminder as to where we are as a group. The table doesn’t lie and we have a lot of catching up to do.
“It’s a really busy summer for the football club, it needs a rebuild and we need to recruit the right ones in the right areas and come back fighting next season.
“We have got a good core who will be coming back to us and if we have the right types in the right areas I’ve got no doubt that next season we can be at the other end of the league where we want to be.
“It’s the last game of the season and a lot of the lads on the football pitch are uncertain about their futures.
“A lot of our lads lost their edge today but it (the result) was disappointing.
“We have not ended up where we wanted to end up but there will be lots of lessons learnt. The season has gone but we have to dust ourselves down and be better next season.”
