    From the Addicks press site

    Here’s the publishing programme with links to the books we’re working on at the moment.

    One Day at Wembley
    The 1998 play off final was a defining day in the history of Charlton. Here are the stories of that day from the fans who were there.

    Legends of the Valley (Spring 2009)
    Who has been your favourite Charlton player and why?

    Best.Match.Ever (Autumn 2009)
    Some matches are simply unforgettable - Addick fans share their best ever match memories.

    Valley Floyd Road (Winter 2009)
    How we lost our ground, how we got it back and the stories of those who help make it possible.

    My Only Desire (Spring 2010)
    Why do you follow Charlton? A snapshot of the glorious mixture of reasons why we venture to SE7 every other week.

    Voices of the Valley (Autumn 2010)
    The best fan writing about Charlton from the last 20 years

    Sounds like a lot of cut and paste from fans comments books. Not sure that I like so much of the same format but as I collect Charlton books I'll be getting all of them and at £5.99 not expensive.

    Also Rick was meant to be re-doing Battle for the Valley and we already have Welling to Wembley (over written although it was) in the same format.

    I'd hope to see some of the Fifth Column into the last book anyway!!

    But is it a high enough standard for the book?

    Oi you! Too high a bloody standard I reckon. Should be a book on it's own. F***** genius that was. :- )

    Harsh about GBH, but sadly true
  • GoodbyeHorseGoodbyeHorse
    Best of GBH..?

    A minor pamphlet I fear.

    As for "overblown", I should be so lucky!

    Ackworth's letters would be an entire volume on it's own surely?
  • A-R-T-H-U-RA-R-T-H-U-R
    Whatever happened to our Ackworth?
    Surely worth reviving it GBH, just to get him out of the woodwork.
    Though I remain convinced it was your own alter ego.
  • AFKABartramAFKABartram
    Ackworth is aalive and well.

    Out of interest, who used to pen the lone gunman column ?

    He still posts on the fans view site on the OS.

    I always associate JA more with Voice of the Valley than GBH to be honest.

    Still have the old GHBs and VOTV in the loft.
  • GoodbyeHorseGoodbyeHorse
    totally agree with you Henry, he was more VotV than GBH, and to be honest, the Herculean task of editing and trying to make sense of his letters is more suited to someone with a more capacious brain than mine now it's all full of runs and points.
  • BDLBDL
    How about putting some of the pictures and articles up on the website? C'mon KP.
