Charlton will investigate a video that claims to show a couple having sex on the pitch

A video has been doing the rounds on social media this week claiming to show a couple having sex in the middle of Charlton Athletic's pitch.

The authenticity of the video is very much in doubt, however the Addicks have now told the Press Association that they will be looking into the matter.

According to the PA:

A Charlton spokesperson told Press Association Sport the club knew nothing of the incident, adding: “There will be a club investigation.”

It is unclear who the couple are or when the video was taken, but Vine user Showboat Vines posted the clip online.

The video was given the following description:

Someone broke into The Valley (home of Charlton) and did this in the centre circle! #SextraTime

If that video is real, then the randy couple may be looking at some serious legal action.

If true, Charlton could also soon find themselves being called the 'Sex Addicts' by rival fans.

Charlton are 16th in the Championship and host Huddersfield Town at The Valley on Saturday.
