Leicester City 3 Charlton Athletic 0

Not a wholly unsurprising defeat to the best team in the division yesterday. Not since Newcastle United in 09/10 has a team dominated this division like the Foxes have this season. 3 points from 6 from the champions elect has been a more than good return.

As for us, it was an insipid display after a tough week, but an early goal and one straight after half-time after we ended the first 45 stronger gave Leicester the catalyst for another routine win.

Leicester hadn’t beaten us in 11 games, which after the past week had given Addicks hope of what would’ve been a real turn up of the form book, especially without certain Frenchman who made it a habit to haunt his nemesis. He was busy denting a relegation rivals’ goal difference yesterday.

Enough of former players, we need to get behind of those still representing the club and Powell and his team need to forget yesterday and begin a new week on the training ground. Staying up is still a tough ask, and our frailties remain, but weeks like the last one will return.

All thoughts will turn to the FA Cup now, and rightly so, as Addicks in their thousands travel up to Sheffield next Sunday.
