"Whatever happens in their F A Cup tie tomorrow, Charlton will not be cut any further adrift at the foot of the Championship table. The pressure to get three points will be off and Phil Parkinson will hope to capitalise on the relegation free mood. The caretaker boss has now been confirmed as the new man in charge, despite his dismal record since replacing Alan Pardew. The Who once sang 'Meet the new boss, the same as the old boss'. Well, for Addicts fans, it's proved all too true.
VERDICT:VALLEY OF DEPAIR"

    Fair, except perhaps for the verdict.

    Got a feeling that fate - being such a perverse kind of lady - could deliver us a win tomorrow when we'd much rather have had three points from any one of the last 16 games.

    Seems to be a buzz that Dickson will play. Love to see him get a brace of goals and a few other non-regulars to shine, which would put some real and very welcome pressure on for places in the starting line-up v Forest.

    Any paper that employs Matthew Norman or David Mellor is not worth wiping your arse on. Any paper that employs both these ignorant non sporting idiots is not worth wiping your dogs arse on.

    The Standard's always had no time for us - we're from the wrong side of the Thames. I'd imagine its staff probably just read some shit on Tribalfootball and make it up from there. Wouldn't wipe my arse with it.

    Mike - have to agree, it is a rag of the highest order - just about passable for wrapping up the Fish & Chips.

    Evening Standarse and fair in the same sentence? Not without the phrase "Don't know the meaning of the word" in there somewhere...

    Sarf London Depress has ALWAYS been a Spanner rag first and foremost. As for the sub-Standard, a despicable paper by so many standards.

    Admit I used to glance through the sports pages but haven't touched it since 'Chris Who?''

    Or the metro, supposedly a London paper and the sport section is always about Newcastle or other exciting northern teams,I know we should expect such things but it is a bit hard to stomach when we have a midweek match and the next day they talk about Blackburn bloody Rovers and we are lucky to have our score printed.
    I wouldn't put the sub- standard in the cats litter tray, the South London Spanner is more of a comic than the Beano.
