Making Hayes in the cup
He's had a frustrating front bench view of late, but striker Paul Hayes talks exclusively to the Valley Review in Saturday's FA Cup match with Carlisle United
And the striker is joined in the only matchday magazine that matters by Chris Powell, Tosan Popo, Bradley Pritchard and Ben Roberts, plus there is all the fall-out from the terrific 2-0 win against Huddersfield Town on Monday night.
Hayes is the cover star, however, and he fronts up to a current predicament that sees him watching on from the sidelines.
There is frustration and realism from the 28-year-old, who remembers playing his own part in a slice of Charlton history and also speaks fondly about some magic moments in the FA Cup.
Fans can relive the record-breaking performance against the Terriers at the start of the week with a full-colour action replay spread, while manager Powell offers his thoughts on a night to remember.
He also welcomes a new challenge in a new competition, as well as addressing the importance of the club's burgeoning Valley Gold scheme.
Goalkeeping coach Ben Roberts offers a standpoint on the season to date regarding the club's custodians, and assesses the development and cohesion of the goalkeepers' union at Sparrows Lane.
Music-wise, it's the turn of Tosan Popo to become DJ ahead of the game, and he selects five very different songs for Addicks FM.
From a quirkily titled wedding song to a guilty pleasure with a bit of a kick, there's enough credibility for him not to declare 'it wasn't me.'
There is all the news of a fine reserve performance at Queens Park Rangers on Tuesday, while the most recent loan action also comes under the microscope, and there is everything fans would want to know about Carlisle and their players. Think you read it all in the league match a few weeks ago? Think again.
There is ticket information aplenty and a stack of statistics that are bang up to date as well as a full colour poster of midfielder Pritchard.
All this, plus plenty more columns and features, make the Carlisle United Valley Review an unmissable read.
The 36-page edition is priced £2. Fans can also take out season subscriptions by calling Paul Ellis, who also deals with back issues, on 020-8333 4000.
