The Addicks look to continue their streak of good results with a trip to Leicester.
A few notes about the game:
Bartlett is going to be out for about 12 weeks.
Cole is going to be in the match-day squad after a long absence.
Parker is suspended and Jensen is hobbled.
Lets get three points!

So, who will be in for Parker?
Will Jensen be able to play? If yes, how long?
Will Curbs then use Euell as an attacking midfielder? He has certainly looked good and played effectively in that role.
Who do we watch for on the Foxes?
Although I must say, I most likely will not get to SEE the game at any time. Fox Sports World is not even listing it as one of its replay games during the week after.
Go Addicks! Three more points in the table!

So, having not seen the penalty, was it a penalty?
From text descriptions, the Addicks were fortunate to escape with a point.
Anyone get to see it?
Tough go with many substitutes for injuries right now.

I am not too sure about the PK. I have not seen it and can make a judgement call. I am more confident though that DiCanio could have taken a dive that Holland taking one. DiCanio is a crafty player who seems to do what is necessary to get the job done. In this case, it was to earn a PK any way possible.
I am grateful for the draw with this decimated line-up.
I think Curbs did the right thing in taking him out before there were any altercations directed at him.

I agree with the assessment of DiCanio. Skillful, crafty, nerves of steel. And that's why Curbs got him.
DiCanio is the kind of player you love when he is on your team and hate when he is on the other.
Curbs is smarter than smart.
I do hope I get to see the play at some point, though that is unlikely.
Back to the Valley to play ever sinking Leeds. Can't take them too lightly, but the Addicks should get the three in that one considering Parket and Jensen will be back.
