So fifteen league games gone and a third of the way through the league season. 4 wins and a draw in their last 5 games have put Charlton up to 4th with 30 points. Keep up this 2 point average then Charlton will finish in the top two and they will be playing Championship football next season. I don’t see Shrewsbury staying where they are, and I do see the likes of Bradford and Blackburn pushing along with Wigan for an automatic spot.

Hopefully they can get to January with Magennis unscathed and find replacements for Novak and Watt which they never replaced back in August. Luck and fortune is on Charlton’s side in that regard and long that may continue along with other key players staying injury free. The injury to Pearce has not been such a blow with the likes of Konsa and Sarr doing fine jobs.

Robinson needs promotion this season. Regardless who will be our owners come next May, they will expect in my opinion Championship football. So far the results speak for themselves. Keep it up.
