Setting sights on Saints

It's probably footage no Charlton fan will be wanting to see again in a hurry (although ITV may be replaying it for years), but highlights from the Addicks' FA Cup exit at the hands of Northwich Victoria is now available on CAFC Player, along with an interview with manager Phil Parkinson looking ahead to Wednesday night's cup tie against Southampton.

Manager Phil Parkinson is looking ahead to Wednesday night's cup tie against Southampton

More than five minutes of action from the Victoria Stadium clash with the non-League side can currently be viewed on the club's video website - although Football Association rules stipulate it is only available until midnight on Friday.

Also newly uploaded to CAFC Player are Parkinson's thoughts on the southern quarter-final against the Saints in midweek.

Subscriptions to the video website - which was updated at the start of the current campaign and now boasts improved audio and widescreen video, and can also be accessed by Mac users - cost just £34.99 per year or £3.99 per month.

That's less than 10p per day, and the website also has an enhanced live match centre, with up-to-the minute feeds and match stats from all divisions, giving fans the perfect matchday destination.

Ahead of the trip to St Mary's, Parkinson - speaking before Sunday's fixture against Northwich - argues that the incentive to play at Wembley should be enough for managers to choose their strongest teams to win matches, and criticises the rules in the Johnstone's Paint Trophy that tie managers' hands when it comes to selection matters.

The Valley boss also praises the performance of the club's U18s following the FA Youth Cup first-round win against Gillingham.

Coming soon on CAFC Player will be footage from the 3-0 youth cup victory for the Addicks against the Gills.

The club's video website offers highlights of every single match, live audio commentaries and exclusive behind-the-scenes interviews and features. In addition to the match commentaries, a live matchday centre provides fans with text updates and a league table that updates as the goals go in across the country.

Along with the technical enhancements, there is an improved account management facility, with the Player service developed by an ex-BBC usability expert who was involved in the creation of the BBC iPlayer.
