Under pressure and out of form Charlton headed in to Tuesday’s clash with table topping Cardiff needing points from somewhere, something that seemed impossible following the trouncing they suffered at the hands of Middlesbrough three days previous. Sitting 21st in the table has made alarm bells ring for some Charlton fans that seem to at any [...]

The excitement this week has been building for the first South London derby of the season, as Charlton host rivals Crystal Palace on Friday night. This will be the first meeting for three years since Matt Spring scored the winner for Charlton in a 1-0 win at the end of January 2009. A season Charlton fans [...]

It has been a rather quiet summer over in SE7, as the League One champions prepare for their first season back in the Championship. The Addicks have made two relatively low keys signings as firstly former youth trainee Lawrie Wilson was resigned from Stevenage. Wilson came through the youth ranks at Charlton but never made the [...]

Charlton powered their way to the League One title this season, with an amazing 101 points. So it makes you wonder do they really need to upset this team rhythm by bringing in more new faces over the summer? Well with 25 summer signings last summer I certainly don’t feel Chrissy Powell needs to reach the [...]

Charlton head into Saturday’s game with Hartlepool United looking to equal the most tallied points in a single season in League One, matching the 101 point record currently held by Fulham. Frustrated that they will not set their unique record after throwing away a two goal lead last weekend in the dying moments against Preston North [...]

Charlton head to Deepdale this Saturday knowing one more win will see them reach the one hundred points total, a feat that achieved by any club at any level is simply amazing. They visit Preston on the back of clinching the title in front of their home fans last week with a 2-1 win over struggling [...]

Back in the summer, Charlton boss Chris Powell set down a huge statement of intent for the coming season by signing 21 new faces. This large recruitment drive made some people question his ambition with many feeling that it may take some time for the team to gel. A rather average pre-season cemented this overall opinion. [...]

It’s been a hectic few weeks for the Addicks as since my last blog Charlton have picked up 9 massive points without conceding a goal and now sit on the verge of promotion. Four points mathematically promotes us but a slip up from Sheffield Wednesday this Saturday with Charlton winning takes us up at Carlisle. However [...]

Charlton’s title bid took another blow last Saturday, as Huddersfield became the latest side to take all three points against the Addicks. In a very controversial and closely fought tie, it was a Jordan Rhodes penalty early on, that saw Grayson’s men take the vital points and Charlton looking for something to blame.  Now they must [...]

Well a week ago I stated this was a make or break week for Charlton, and Seven days later I sit here rather happy. Charlton have picked up 4 crucial points after following a 1-1 draw with Scunthorpe up with a comprehensive 3-0 victory over Yeovil Town as they head in to a crunch top of [...]

A week is a long time in football, and who would have thought after Kermogant’s 90 th minute winner against Bournemouth, we would have followed that up with two home defeats on the bounce. As I sit here, Chris Powell’s Charlton are still stuck on 78 points and will be wondering how they have not added to [...]

Charlton head in to Saturday’s game against 6 th placed Notts County, following a frustrating result on Tuesday where they suffered their first home defeat of the season. Only their first defeat of 2012,  in a game that Charlton dominated for long periods ,but they were undone by a moment of class by Anthony Wordsworth and [...]

Runaway League 1 leaders Charlton Athletic travel to Dean Court on Saturday, looking to maintain their unbeaten run in 2012, the only side within the football league with this status intact. Following crushing wins over Stevenage and Chesterfield in the past 3 days respectively, they currently lie 13 points ahead of 2 nd placed Sheffield United [...]
