Brighton’s large and vociferous following were delighted with their team’s performance whilst the Addicks faithful were left rueing the night’s events.
The visitors adapted much better to the heavy pitch and went ahead after Charlton spurned a glorious opportunity to open the scoring. The ball was switched to Calderon to convert from the edge of the box after 35 minutes.
Bennett sealed the win twelve minutes from time with Akpo Sodje’s consolation coming with virtually the last kick.
Burton’s early departure will be a worry for Phil Parkinson as well.
With Norwich and Leeds pulling further clear and Swindon, Huddersfield and Millwall closing the gap, it was a disappointing and damaging night for Charlton.

Frankly as much as I want to be positive…I find it hard to take that we should lose this match….are our lads really up for this….if not get rid of the slackers and get some fire in their bellies…are you lads as passionate about Charlton as I am …come on Parky get it sorted this is not good enough
Back to the usual Charlton of late then, Saturday’s win was soon forgotten and counted for little really.
I’m left disappointed once again. Every club has a blip in the season we’ve just got to hope that we get over our major one, and fast!!!!
Is this a case of a blip or are we in danger of totally losing out even a play off place does not look secure on our present form
How we do in the next match or two will tell us the answer to that.
