[Amelia Chaffinch]

Tomorrow evening we head to The Valley, home of the Addicks since 1919; apart from one year in the 20s when they played at the Mount Stadium, Catford and 1985 to 1992 when it was closed due to financial and safety problems. During that period they played at the Crystal Palace and West Ham grounds.

Head to head

Our last match was in the 2015/16 championship season and we won 5-0 at home. The fixture at the Valley earlier that season had been a closer 2-1 win to us.

They are 4 places above us in 17th but only 5 points ahead.

Top Scorers

Macauley Bonne and Conor Gallagher on 6 each.

Jonathan Leko and Kyle Taylor on 5 each.

We, of course, have Karlan Grant on 11, Juninho Bacuna on 5 and Fraizer Campbell on 2.

Form

Charlton's recent results are no better than ours with 5 losses and a draw which came on 23rd November against Cardiff at home.

What the managers are saying

Danny Cowley's press conference today...

Lee Bowyer is remaining quiet from what I can see.

Talking of 42 carat plonkers...

Rodney Charlton Trotter was named after the club.

Club Connections

Crisp Owl played for Charlton on three separate occasions. He managed them from 2011 and was unceremoniously dismissed by their new owners in 2014. He was then taken on by us and steadied our ship. He was let go by us in 2015 so we could start our Wagner Revolution.

He's electric, he came from Charlton Athletic, I don't think he'll regret it   ...

... he's Karlan Grant.

Fame for the wrong reasons

On the 21st December 1957, we were 5-1 up at the Valley. We went on to lose 7-6. That makes us the only team in football league history to get 6 goals away from home and still lose. No ambitions to beat that record, please.

That's your lot... totally forgot I was doing this. If anyone can help with travel tips, etc, I'd be grateful. Thanks.
