Park View Road El Scorchio

The Addicks play their annual pre-match friendly against Welling United tomorrow, kick-off 12.30 at Park View Road. 

It's traditionally a long hot day and tomorrow promises to be no different with temperatures touching 30C. Shorts and sunglasses will be the order of the day.

I am looking forward to seeing Welling's new line-up and how Charlton compete. Fully expecting Lee Bowyer to field a different eleven in each half as he seeks to get players match fit and used to playing together. At least it cuts down on all the substitution time which ruins the flow of the game.

The early kick-off reduces the pre-match drinking time but non-League regulations mean civilised supping on the terraces during the game, so use both bars on both sides of the ground as you burn in the July sunshine.

The World Cup may be finishing on Sunday but at least we still have the longest football club takeover in history to continue arguing over.
