Chris Powell is not the only Charlton manager who is struggling to get results at the moment. After carrying all before them last season, the Under-21s are finding results harder to come by this time around.

Nathan Jones had a superb season at the helm but left in the summer to become assistant manager at Brighton, a club he represented as a player.

Jason Euell stepped up to replace Jones but has found him a tough act to follow. On Tuesday, Euell’s team suffered a 1-0 defeat in a friendly at Colchester.

Fans who have children, and like to follow the club on the road, can take advantage of a promotion that Birmingham are doing.

The Blues are offering a buy one, get one free deal on Under-18 and Under-13 tickets for their match with the Addicks at St Andrews on 31 October.

The offer is extended to Charlton fans but anyone under the age of 15 must be accompanied by an adult to gain admission.

The full pricing structure for Addicks fans is as follows:

Adults £25

OAPs and Students £15

Under-18s £10

Under-13s £5

Tickets are now on general sale from The Valley Commercial Centre.
