Under the microscope
The games are coming thick and fast at the business end of the season, and three strikers, two goalkeepers and a defender are at the sharp end of the Valley Review for Tuesday night's visit of Colchester United.

Nicky Forster, Tamer Tuna and youngster Tosan Popo are all in the firing line, while left-back Garry Borrowdale reflects on his short spell at the club and keepers past and present, Rob Elliot and Nicky Johns, also feature prominently.
Phil Parkinson offers his thoughts on facing his former club after coming up against his former boss at the weekend, there is a full-colour poster of Darren Randolph, not to mention all the fall-out from Saturday's defeat against Southampton - plus a comprehensive guide to the League One run-in.
Experienced striker Forster kicks things off in the main player feature and takes a look back at his first few weeks at the club.
The 36-year-old assesses his role on and off the pitch to date, discusses the ever-changing promotion picture and how hanging up his boots is not something he is currently contemplating.
He also talks about how he unwinds by jumping on a bike, and another player enjoying a different sport recently is keeper Elliot.
Charlton's number one met Kent and England wicketkeeper Geraint Jones for some multi-sport training last week, and talks about his love for the country's favourite summer sport.
Borrowdale, meanwhile, could well be playing the last match of his loan spell from Queens Park Rangers against Colchester, and chats about his current uncertainty as he pens his Dressing Room Diary.
He also addresses the lack of goals in his career and what new teammate Forster brings to the team before tackling five quick questions.
On the subject of questions, striker Tuna takes the 100 to One challenge, discussing rugby, Roger Federer and regrets, as well as reliving the moment he arrived on the scene for the club.
Parkinson looks back at a perfect Easter period, and talks of the disappointment of not picking up at least a point against the Saints, before looking forward to hosting a club he once led out of this very division.
On the subject of Colchester, there is a detailed look at the men from Essex, including a presidential link between both managers, and the ever-popular kids' page invites fans of all ages to test out their knowledge of the loan market.
Fans can plot Charlton's potential route to promotion via a detailed look at the run-in of the key clubs in contention at the top of the table, with a handy fixture guide to boot, and there is all the latest from the boardroom courtesy of chief executive Steve Waggott.
Supporters can read why the likes of N-Dubz, Ant and Dec and Joe Calzaghe may be descending on The Valley at the end of the season.
A second keeper, Nicky Johns, will be in attendance at The Valley on the night, and he talks about a charity collection taking place which is close to his heart.
The three-time player of the year reflects on his time at Charlton and a memorable performance against Chelsea in the return of Yesterday's Hero.
There is all the action from Charlton's last three games in a hat-trick of full-colour action replay spreads, while readers can get inside the mind of the club's young scholars courtesy of their efforts at media training.
Development coach Damian Matthew reflects further on the decisions to offer five youngsters professional deals and gives hope to those at the end of the road at Charlton, while promising striker Popo discusses his first season 'in the building' and his relaxed attitude.
One fan relives his long trip a recent trip from the west Wales valleys, and there is a full colour poster of Irish goalkeeper Randolph. All this, plus the usual columns and features, make the Colchester Valley Review an unmissable read.
The 60-page edition is priced £3 and will be available to purchase around the stadium or in the Valley Superstore as usual, and will also be sold by mobile sellers and in the west-stand kiosks.
Fans can also take out season subscriptions via the official Charlton website - click here or call Paul Ellis, who also deals with back issues, on 020-8333 4000.

And if that's not enough, fans can tuck in to player profiles, statistics and seasonal records courtesy of the official club handbook, which remains on sale.
The bible of all things Charlton doubled up with the opening programme of the season when Wycombe Wanderers came to SE7 on August 8th, and the whopping 116 offering is £5. Read more about the handbook here.
