Brian Cole…where is he?

in General Charlton
It may be that I have missed something but does anyone know what has happened to Brian Cole? Last time I saw him was at Wembley announcing the lineup.

    Ok thanks. If he has left his role, seems odd that there was no announcement from the club.

    Well done Brian Cole 👏🏼 for the last 9 years and the long journeys to the Valley. Welcome back Slim Dave Lockwood 👏🏻

    I am gonna be honest, I miss him already. 

    I think he is one of the best stadium announcers I have ever heard. New guy is good, but big shoes to fill. 

    This is like watching UFC without Bruce Buffer.

    The new guy 🤣🤣 How long have you been supporting Charlton? Big Dave has been on the scene for donkey’s. He was the announcer before Brian Cole and just confuse matters, Brian Cole was the announcer before Big Dave. 
    Since I was 10. I would say I have been consistently going to games since I was 18. 

    I genuinely can't remember another voice I will be honest. Just assumed it was always the same voice but got older 😂 bit of a Mandela effect moment here, my memory must be shit.

    My memory of it was that Dave had a stint before Brian's first one, and that he was the announcer when I started going to games in 2000. Is this correct? Would make this Dave's 3rd proper stint...

    Both are miles better than the rugby league fella we had during some of the prem years. What was that about?
    Safe and happy retirement Brian ♥️

    Brian and BDL are both great match day announcers and we’ve been so lucky to have them at the microphone for so many years. But for those of us of a certain vintage the late great Dick Neve also deserves a mention when the nominations are put forward for the pitchside announcers’ Hall of Fame. 
  • wmcf123wmcf123
    You was before BDL/Big Brian ? John Fuller ? I’ve been going since 93 and I’m sure there was someone before them.

    Let down by the microphone / speaker set up unfortunately. 

    Many can’t hear what’s being said with any great clarity.

    From the AC stand it's ok, Brian Cole tended to put a bit more into it, tho BDL was clearer on Sat than against Watford.
