Watford 3 Charlton Athletic 4

A fantastic result yesterday that epitomised the team spirit under Chris Powell. It’s always nice to win on New Year’s Day as it sets an encouraging tone and hopefully a result of this eminence can see us go on a little run like we did after Cardiff.

We had just equalised to make it 3-3 with Twitter in confusion to who had scored when I was told “for the last time” to turn my phone off as we sat on the runway at Gatwick yesterday, so for this Addick I punched the air in delight around 7 hours after the rest of you.

Our Hulse

As expected Rob Hulse joined the Addicks today on a 3-month loan, and goes straight into Chris Powell’s squad for tomorrow. The 32-year old has slowly rolled down the pecking order at QPR and didn’t make Mark Hughes’ Premier League squad.

On the minus side Hulse hasn’t played much football these last couple of seasons and although he has a Championship winners medal, he was really a bit part player in Warnock’s team, and only scored twice. On the plus point, he fits the mold of a Powell signing in that he has something to prove if he is looking for a move to end his career on a high. Also, other than at QPR, Hulse has enjoyed a lot of success at this level and has moved around for a number of sizeable fees.
