Charlton, when I saw them earlier this year, were absolutely nothing special at all and were thoroughly outclassed by a Yeovil side who sit in the Championship relegation zone. I know the Cup is different and no, I'm not saying we're in Charlton's class, but a 5-0 aggregate loss to them in a game and a half really ought to give our boys some hope that we can go there and get at least a point. They're fine, I'm sure, for a dire L2, but we ought to be much closer to them than we are in the league table. This is not a match from which any of us, supporters or staff, should accept a narrow defeat as par for the course. Oxford, as per every side in L2 this year, are at a low ebb in their recent history (if they weren't, they'd be top by miles). We should head there full of cheer, in numbers and hoping for a close game with Torquay at least matching their opponents man for man.
Plus, you know, Andy in a skirt.
