Addicks prepare Valley

Congratulations to the many Addicks who have been working hard today to try and ensure that Sunday's match against Southampton can go ahead. This shows Charlton at its best. One of them reported:

We spent two hours clearing some snow and mainly ice from the steps and walkway behind the East Stand at Lansdowne Mews - a daunting task to start with, but helped by the arrival of rock-salt around mid-day.

Paddy was optimistic: the pitch was covered at South Stand end, and snow was being cleared from remainder of pitch by tractor - council have even agreed to grit surrounding roads Sunday morning if necessary. -4 forecast for Saturday night, but +2for Sunday morning, so fingers crossed!

Thanks to CAFC for laying on pie/chips/beans lunch!!
