Charlton Athletic 2 Blackpool 1
Charlton won a Saturday home game for the first time this season
and completed the double over managerless Blackpool with a 2-1
victory at The Valley.
Addicks boss Chris Powell, whose side are 14th in the
Championship, said: "It’s great for everyone and it’s been a long
time coming.
"I’m pleased for our fans because the majority of them come to
The Valley and want to see their team do well and set up their
week."
Skipper Johnnie Jackson put Charlton in front on 23 minutes and
Scott Wagstaff, pictured, extended the lead in first-half
injury-time after Pool keeper Matt Gilks had parried Yann
Kermorgant’s header.
Former Charlton loanee Nathan Eccleston pulled a goal back at
the death for a Blackpool side who lost manager Michael Appleton to
Blackburn Rovers a day before the game.
