Filed under: Match Reports — Walter at 3:19 pm on Monday, February 2, 2009

Charlton manager Phil Parkinson was shrouded in a wave of congratulatory hugs as his side finally managed to break the shackles and end the worst league run in the club’s history. The fans that came to watch the match also went back satisfied; especially since the team’s performance had taken such a plunge that they in all likelihood may have forgotten the last time the team won. After all, the Charlton Athletic had been in the lurch for a total of 19 matches, making even the most ardent of supporters to go cynical about the team’s prospects. (Read on …)

Wolves does the scoring, while Reading walks away with the win

Filed under: Match Reports — Walter at 2:14 pm on Thursday, January 29, 2009

Reading got a shot in the arm when a suicide goal from Neill Collins in the very first minute sank Wolves’ boat, and put Reading within two points of the leader. The result of the match played at the Madejski Stadium on Tuesday night has really thrown the championship wide open, and with Birmingham also winning their match at home, the final lag of the championship has all the ingredients to make for a great 100 meter dash.

Nottingham Forest addresses its miserable Home Record with a much sought for Win

Filed under: Match Reports — Walter at 2:59 pm on Thursday, January 22, 2009

Nottingham Forest would really savour their win over Plymouth Argyle, as it helped them to address their poor home record. Until now their performance at home was a real concern for Forest as they have been unable to take advantage of home conditions, that too despite winning the last four away matches on the trot. The result is also a good one for Billy Davies as it was his first home match in charge, and he would be pleased that he was able to remove the shackles. (Read on …)

Wolves squander their lead and end up with a Draw

Filed under: Match Reports — Walter at 2:32 pm on Wednesday, January 21, 2009

Wolves it apparently seems are beginning to take their success for granted as they squandered a 2-0 lead and allowed Bristol City to come back from the jaws of defeat to snatch a memorable draw. A victory against Bristol wouldn’t have only given Wolves an important seven point lead over second placed Reading, but would have almost secured them the championship. The result now leaves the door wide open, with all the top three teams, including third placed Birmingham, in with a chance to qualify for the automatic promotion spot. (Read on …)
