Charlton to be relegated?

[rcgills]

What do people think of the chances of Charlton going down this season? They've made a habit in recent seasons of making a decent start before tailing off towards the end of the season - well this year that tailing off seems to have started very early. 5 straight defeats for them now, although in spite of that they're still 9 points clear of the relegation zone. Biggest doubt for me is the fact that despite being bad, they may not be among the 3 worst teams in the league. Sunderland are as good as down, surely, so two places left to fight for. At the moment, Portsmouth aren't looking too good, but have to wait and see what effect Redknapp (presuming it'll be him) has on them. Birmingham are struggling, but still expect to see them come good at some point. Any views on Charlton at 10/1?

sportingodds have them priced up at 12/1 to finish in the bottom three.
Sunderland are 1/100 so it looks like theyve gone and taken one of the places.

Seems strange that they are 12,s and Wigan are only 9/1.

Bet365 have got Sunderland at 1/250. I don't think they rate their chances of survival
