CRYSTAL Palace head to The Valley on Friday for the first south east London derby of 2012/13 and the Eagles will be aiming to win in a regular league fixture in SE7 for the first time since before man set foot on the moon.

RICARDO Fuller scored his first Charlton goal in more than a decade as an Addicks reserve side defeated Chelsea 3-2 in a friendly last Friday.

Danny Green and Michael Smith were also on target, while Fuller netted after his penalty was tipped onto the post.

It was his first goal for Charlton since he scored for the reserves during a trial in 1999/2000.

Also in the Charlton line-up were new keeper David Button and midfielder Dale Stephens, the latter featuring for the first time since a potential move to Aston Villa broke down at the end of last month.

SEASON tickets for Charlton’s 2012/13 Championship campaign remain available from £290, with over 60s and U21s from £200 and U18s £99.

STRIKER Leon Clarke scored within five minutes of coming on to make his debut for League One side Scunthorpe United on Saturday as the Iron drew 1-1 with Sheffield United.

The forward joined Scunthorpe on loan for three months on the morning of the game after a deal was completed the previous day.

Charlton can recall Clarke after 28 days if required.

A GOAL from Gemma Shepherd wasn’t enough as the Charlton women’s team lost 2-1 away to Aston Villa on Sunday in their first league match without departed technical director Paul Mortimer.

The ex-Addicks winger last week announced he was stepping down after five years at the helm.

Reserve manager Bill Long has taken caretaker charge, with skipper Kim Dixson taking on coaching duties.

The Addicks entertain Leeds United at Thamesmead Town’s Bayliss Avenue on Sunday (2pm).
