If I had a £1 for every time someone has suggested that the OS being down means a signing has been made I'd be able to buy Martin Christensen's car : - )
Last time I saw Nicky Johns he was managing a team of 12-13 year olds. Very organised they were,too - thrashed our lot and scored double figures. If only we could afford to give Parky an assistant!
Just looked up Nicky Johns subsequent progress and found this from Chicago Addick, posted on his website in November :
"I heard on the grapevine and since had it confirmed that ex-Addick Nicky Johns lost his 26-year old son, Stephen, to cancer this week. Awful and terrible news and I am sure all Addicks' hearts go out to this brilliant ex-keeper and his family.
His football career ended at Maidstone United under Keith Peacock and although Nicky is a qualified UEFA 'A' standard coach, he was in a terrible car accident about 4 or 5 years ago and has been unable to physically coach. He was assistant manager at Erith Town, but recently worked for Crystal Palace's community scheme.''
Very sad to hear all of that - a fine keeper and a lovely man...

Yeah, do you remember as soon as it was down we expected, Van Bommel, Robert Green, Kezman, Morientes, etc.
This is back to Charlton as I knew it.
