Two up, three off, don’t win, dodgy ref. Yep typical Charlton!

Bristol Rovers 2 Charlton Athletic 2
As someone said on Twitter: “So if you’re sat in London it’s all Powell’s fault, if you were at the game, you’re proud of the team and feel robbed. I trust those in Bristol.”

Well I’m even further away and was as frustrated as the next Addick as I scurried around pushing kids out of the way to get my hands on as many creme eggs as possible at the Easter egg hunt I was at, whilst periodically checking my phone for match updates. Yes, we threw away 3 points but not only did it sound as if we played pretty decent and scored two goals, we also battled to take something away from the game and fought for the shirt. And then I’ll reserve my wrath for the referee until I see the highlights. But it does sound like he was a twat.

Saints alive

Southampton 2 Charlton Athletic 0
Despite the lift we all got on Saturday, and also the wholly unexpected news today that 6,253 season tickets have been sold for next season, tonight’s result was no surprise to me. Saints wanted, needed these 3 points and following their sixth win in seven I expect them to join Brighton in filling the top two spots.

We disappointingly conceded early, did appear to get back into it after almost being over-run in the first half hour. Then we created a few chances in the 2nd but a second goal by Lee Barnard just before the hour ended the game as a contest.

Reid all about it

MK Dons 1 Charlton Athletic 2
Forgive me but I don’t get to watch my team much. So when I get the opportunity to see them live, not least witness them win in the final minutes, I can get a bit over-excited.

When Waggy ran into the arms of joyous Addicks after getting the winner last night I couldn’t have cared less if it was the paint pot, the tea pot or the piss pot trophy. A win is a win and it is worth celebrating…. and I did last night by the way but that is another story.
