Stoke City at home. What was the score? Won 1-0
I was tied up in meetings all yesterday afternoon but got back to my hotel room to catch the last ten minutes of the game via those nice people on Charlton Life that relay what they are hearing on the radio. It was an excellent result against an long unbeaten and brutish Stoke side that went a long way to prove that we are learning to cope with the more physical opponents in the division.
That was only our second win in ten games, yet we still find ourselves right in the leading pack as teams around us take a tumble. Perhaps more importantly that was our 5th straight good performance and if we can now only put together a run it will get us all rocking.
Credit also to the crowd last night who I understand was in lockstep all the way with the team right until the bitter end. They each deserved that extra lemonade after the game the 15 minutes earlier kick-off allowed them.
Who was at The Valley: Drinking During the Game; One From The Training Ground; Charlton North Downs; Addicks Championship Diary; Kings Hill Addick; All Quiet.
Reports: Sporting Life; Telegraph; The Times; Sportbox; cafc.co.uk; Why Deliah.
What Pards' said: "The fans were brilliant for us tonight and we got a big, big win. Results have gone for us and we're that bit closer."
A bottle of fizzy pop for: Paddy McCarthy. Don't ask me why cos I was in a meeting. ¶ 19:40
