Exeter City 0 Charlton Athletic 1
Exeter had come of the back of three clean sheets so today was always going to be tight but we came through another test in Devon today to go 9 points clear.
Danny Green’s goal sounded fortunate and I can assure you (I haven’t looked) the Sheffield forums will be proclaiming that we are the luckiest side alive. A bit like Birmingham City I guess.
We were the main game on BBC Radio London with ex-Chelsea striker Colin Lee as co-commentator. They concluded that we were worth the 3 points and as we have seen numerous times on the road this season, from the 2nd half restart we showed vitality and initiative and Green’s goal was a quick result of Powell’s team talk.
In between the goal and Kermie missing a good chance from a BWP cross, Hamer had another case of the flaps but from where me and the little ‘un were sitting with one eye on her lego and another on my FA Cup accumulator (poxy Millwall let me down) we eased to victory and another precious 3 points.
Our first win at St James Park, Exeter for 83 years and to help celebrate rumour has it, that Johnnie Jackson bought the drinks for some fans on the train on the way home. I have a man crush, there is no doubt!
Addick Bloggers at St James Park: Doctor Kish;
Powell-ometer: Great to see Dale Stephens get on and I have an inkling Powell may start him on Tuesday night.
Elsewhere: Huddersfield drew at Tranmere, Jordan Rhodes scoring his 28th goal of the season. Hartlepool thrashed Carlisle 4-0, Preston came a cropper at Yeovil and Rochdale won their first game under ex-Accrington boss John Coleman. Charm merchant Gary Alexander scored a hat trick for Brentford as they beat bottom club Wycombe 5-2.
Living abroad, how do I listen to matches on the radio? Is there an iPad app or subscription through website? You’re advice much appreciated 😉
Matthew – BBC Radio London will always cover the games and occasionally such as yesterday they have live commentary. The Tunein Radio app allows you to listen to all UK radio. I recommend it.
Then here is CAFC Player, a subscription service you can buy through the official website.

This is a vastly improved service. It can be a bit temperamental and is not run by the club, but you can watch highlights, interviews and listen to live commentary of every game.
Good luck.
I use this: http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/console/bbc_london for when the Charlton games are featured
Thanks
