The Addicks now face Bristol Rovers on Tuesday night (7.45pm), with Breacker hinting Joe Anyinsah could be in line for a return after missing the last two games with a groin injury.
"Anyinsah has a chance," said Breacker. "It's not a terrible injury. It's a groin problem but he's had some sort of muscle control issues. He's a very strong lad."
Really hope Anyinsah is back but seems bizarre that he's ruled out for 6 weeks and then back just over a week later. Not that I'm complaining mind. Wouldn't mind Waggy back too!
Maybe the bench tomorrow for Joe which is not the worst thing as his pace and power could certainly be an asset late in the game against tired legs, especially if things are not going our way and/or we are under the cosh ie Notts County home. Unsure if Parky would risk him in the cup with his injury record.
Be good if he was available, but no need to rush him back imo. On Saturday, Akpo looked as fit as he has probably ever done in an Addicks shirt. If Joe isn't 100% I'd start Akpo and move Martin out right (if Waggy is still injured) leaving Reidy and Joe to come on as impact subs.
We really do have some good options up top at the moment (when all fit and firing).
100% with you on that call Exiled. I think our team is better for a bit of forwards bullying/physicality call itt what you like. In the absence of Anyinsah, a fit Sodje can provide the closest to that we have. I know Benson is doing well now but I would like to see Ackpo and Joe play together at some point. I thought between them they were unplayable against Notts County and effectively won us the game afte a disapointing performance before they were introduced. Surely the combo requires some further investigation after that cameo.
Despite possibly not being 100% fully fit, I would still start Anyinsah as he usually gets cramp as the game progresses, so I wouldn't want to risk him getting cramp and CAFC left with no subs, see how the first half goes and if he comes off Sodje looked good against Yeovil so Parky could bring him on.

Too much information. : - )
Parky has explained that. He had been referring to Solly and some journalist got it wrong
I joined in training with the lads today and it feels good, so i should be ok for the match on saturday. Sorry for the late reply
No your a brown noser try to get up old joe boys shorts!!

I thought Akpo played a very good game v Yeovil when he came on - and Yeovil couldn't handle him.
He made the penalty and deserves his chance.
Akpo up front with Benson and Martin working the right flank would be my pick tonight.
It keeps the balance in the team.
