Addicks skipper blasts Tilson

The Shrimpers were reduced to 10 men when Jean Francois Christophe was sent off for clashing with Bailey in the 25th minute and went on to lose 2-1.Tilson branded Bailey's reaction to the incident "embarrassing", but the midfielder said: "I find his comments quite laughable."He told the Mirror: "I was punched by one of the Southend players. To call me a cheat from 25 yards away at full-time and in all interviews after the game is a total disgrace."It was clearly stated that Tilson gave instructions to his team to wind me up and get me sent off. Cheating is not a word that I have ever been associated with."I still have many friends at Southend and just believe that Tilson was disappointed with the result, so someone had to take the flack."
