The club report today that Southampton have sold their 3000 allocation for Saturday's key battle at the Valley. Interest in the fixtures took off after Southampton's win over Bristol City on Saturday. That means we could have a bumper crowd, especially if the feel-good factor has extended to our own fans after our dramatic win at Home Park.
I am looking forward to this game because it's all or bust and we have the added incentive of watching Southampton squirm if we beat them. Sheffield Wednesday are winning 2-1 in the Sheffield derby tonight and Southampton will drop a place closer to the drop if it stays that way. A defeat at the Valley on saturday and they could be in real trouble, potentially third bottom, although they are far from one of the poorest three sides in the division.
We will have to do it without Sam Sodje, who looks like he might have played his last game for us following a toe and ligament injury at Plymouth. Yassin Moutouakil will be eligible despite his sending off in the Reserves on Monday because suspensions from the stiffs take 14 days to come into effect.
Elsewhere, Amdy Faye has been accused of rape, although it's hard to see a case sticking when the "victim" alleges he did it four times on different dates and at different places, one of which was his home. Either way, I sincerely hope we never see him again in a Charlton shirt.
