Whyte admitted there was some disappointment they had not made the most of their chances late on to win the game.
He said: “The first half wasn’t so good, but we just needed a spark. The boys came out in the second half and they were brilliant.

“Charlton are a massive club and they were probably the favourites, but we dug deep, got a point and probably should have won it.”
