Last updated on .From the section Football
Charlton have called off Tuesday's Carling Cup tie against Reading on police advice.
The decision was taken because of safety fears following a period of rioting in London.
Addicks chief executive Stephen Kavanagh told the club website: "Clearly the most important factor is people's safety.
"The police have told us they believe the match should be postponed on safety grounds and we have taken that advice."
