It's not good form to humiliate the neighbours. Just as well then, as a strongish Charlton side won 1-0 at Welling last night. No doubt the soggy pitch and lashing rain didn't help the quality of the game, although it didn't deter 2000 hardy souls from turning out to see it.
Good to see a clean sheet. This is just as important in these games as the goals. According to the website, Mark Hudson gave a leadership performance at the back and took the armband from Matt Holland when he went off in the second half. If I'm reading the line-up correctly, Sam Long played at right-back and Semedo paired at centre-half with Hudson. Youga got the left berth.
Midfield saw Sinclair with Holland supported by Lloyd Sam right and Rashid Yussef left. Varney partnered Fleetwood and it was Rashid-Fleetwood-Varney combo that got the only goal after 25 minutes.
In the spirit of these games, we used six substitutes with Racon, Fortune, Wagstaff, Shelvey, Thomas and Dickson all getting run-outs.
This result should keep the natives quiet, if not happy, and we have up-and-coming Ebbsfleet United on Saturday in a game that should see a stronger line-up and one gradually closer to what SAP intends putting out against Swansea on 9th August.
