    Feels wrong to post the match thread after @ThePenguin s successful run, but here we go. After a good 4-1 win in midweek against a handy Exeter, we're home again against Blackpool, who sit a point above us. A return home for Albie Morgan (I never had the issue's with him that other fans did but I've seen few tears shed about his departure) and Blackpool have Jordan Rhodes on loan, who is knoking them in regularly.
    Gonna be a tough one!

    Let's hope he doesn't take terrible revenge. If we lose we know who to blame<doh>.
    Albie has been dropped recently, the Blackpool fans have the same reservations abahrt him as we did, his inconsistency, final ball.
    Another win and the fans will be firmly behind Mickey Apples (for now anyway), although tbf he has lots of options that weren't available to Dean Holden.

    Quite right. Chuks was woeful on Tuesday but can be effective off the bench after 70 minutes.

    A half of few chances according to the basic stats.
    Charlton edging all those stats except the one that matters - the scoreline.

    It ain't over 'till it's over...

    Horrible first half. Lots of possession little else.

    Could have happened - we looked as if we were going to get a third. Just a bit of composure and we score. 2-2 was probably fair but we looked good again going forward.

    I went outside gor a couple of minutes and missed both goals, but that was a great recovery.

    Happy with the draw after the turgid first half and the way we gifted them their second goal. T. Campbell and Asiimwe made a huge difference and we looked much more balanced when they came on. So many chances to get 3 points late on.

    Well done boys, we'd have folded previously.

    I'm daring to think the unthinkable- Chuks might actually be fit and stay fit.
    <sorry> if I've jinxed him.

    Nice thought but cannot see it happening.

    Chuks remaining fit for longer than 20 minutes is a bonus.

    Can he stay fit long enough to regain his best form? I understand he's not been very good so far this season...

    He was terrific on Saturday, and has been very good whenever he's come on as a sub. Not so good when he started, but for me he was OK all things considered. Look at the way he laid on Alfie's goal.
