Fink Tank offers hope

Today's Fink Tank in The Times offers injury hit Charlton a ray of hope against Pompey at Fratton Park today. Despite the sidelining of Darren Bent, Luke Young and Andy Reid, the chances of a home win are put at only 44 per cent with an almost 1 in 3 (29 per cent) chance of an away win and a 27 per cent chance of a draw.
We are also reminded that our win there fifteen months ago put us 2nd in the Premiership.
