Team full of Sodje's, we want a team full of Sodje's
Yeovil Town 1 Charlton Athletic 1An absolutely tremendous 2nd half performance from Charlton this afternoon in what returning Addicks are describing as the worst weather ever at a game.... even worse than Swindon in '98. The 1,500 or so who stood behind the goal on an open terrace deserved a medal, but at least they will wake tomorrow with some fantastic memories to no doubt go with a sniffle or two.
I have to applaud Parky for bravely changing it at half-time as we switched to 4-3-2 although from the commentary it was more like 2-5-2 as we camped in their half with Youga and Basey pushing forward as we did everything but score again in the 2nd half.
It sounded like Sam Sodje had to go and will get a one game suspension, but when John Obika put Yeovil in front just before half-time I feared the worse but Parkinson did a great job at the break, acted positively, sent them out 2nd half and we showed why we are second in the table.
I look forward to seeing Akpo Sodje's goal, from the commentary he sounded a right bloody handful and witnesses say that his disallowed goal was very dubious too. So a proud performance that derserved three points. Well done to both players and supporters.
