    Not too bad down here by the Solent, thanks.

    Not much happening on the pitch, mind...

    Great move from Charlton leads to a chance in the box for Jackson, but he misses the ball completely with his right foot.

    Then....


    GOAL CHARLTON!!!!!

    Tucudean brings down a ball really well from Buyens and buries it past the keeper.

    1-0 :)

    Bikey, Wiggins, Jackson, Buyens, Cousins and Vetokele have started every game this season. Ben Haim has missed only one game (and Moussa has been available off the bench in 11 games). That's a pretty consistent core of 7 players. Worryingly though, the other four places in the team have seen 14 players come and go, although you could exclude Church, Harriotts and Fox, who have only appeared as subs.

    Of course, we'd all like to see consistent selection but it has to be said that you can't do anything about injuries. In my opinion, if a player has an injury of any kind, he shouldn't be brought back until he's fully fit. Don't take risks. If that means using lesser players to plug the gaps then so be it. It's up to them to come up to the mark. Show some dicker.

    It may also mean that Charlton have to play out some matches with an attitude of "Don't lose" rather than "play to win". It's not the approach I prefer, but one point is better than none.

    As for the question of when we will next win a match, well, I can see where Eddie is coming from. Looking down the fixture list that's a not unreasonable conclusion to come to. And who knows, Blackpool might be in a run of form by December...!!! That'd be just our luck.

    But, one game at a time, eh..? The team will be what it will be and we have to get behind that.

    We've beaten Bolton in games we had no right to win in the past. It's a funny old game.

    Dervite has a free header from a Spearing cross, but he can only put it wide.

    1 minute added time.

    Spearing lines up a right-footed shot which Henderson was able to deal with.

    Oh, well if we're going to be silly about this.......

    Peeters gets up off the bench to wild applause from the Covered End and from the technical area he directs the slick, well oiled machine that is Charlton Athletic as they run the Bolton defence ragged.

    A red tide sweeps forward with shots raining in on the hapless Trotters goalkeeper. Tucudean has another header cleared off the line from a corner and a thunderous drive by Buyens, from thirty yards, crashes back off the post.

    The half time whistle can't come soon enough for the beleaguered Bolton defence and as the Addicks leave the field for the interval, to thunderous roars from the home fans, it must surely be only a matter of how many goals Charlton will score in the second half.



    Well.... you started it.....

    I'm just reporting it as I hear it from the Charlton Live commentators. I certainly don't see myself as a propagandist in the same vein as the Charlton twitter account, for example, although I understand that by relying on Peter Finch and Terry Smith I'm going to get their biased take on what's happening.

    Jackson slides it into the bottom corner after good work from Moussa and Tucudean.

    Just noticed something odd. If you click on "Player / Live Matches" you get a choice of home or away commentaries and a volume control. But if click on the "Matchday Live" link on the OS you only get the home commentary and no volume control.

    Goal Bolton.

    Moxey strikes after Bikey couldn't get enough on his clearance. Henderson had no chance.

    2-1

    Wiggins clears off the line from a Bolton corner with Henderson not looking comfortable.
