Lloyd Jones in a row with a teammate
It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Charlton Athletic this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

The academy exists for exactly this morning. David Shaw has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Will Mannion is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.
