As the hour draws near!!!

edited February 2012 in General Charlton
Big big night tonight..........whenever a big game looms the day seems to drag, always been the same and I suppose it's the same for just about everyone.
Really stoked up for this one and the antisipation is welling up as the hours tick by.
Can smell the fish and chip shop and the burger bars already, the buzz of the crowd and the cries of the programme sellers as I make my way down Floyd Road, for what feels like the millionth time.
Some things never change and I for one would never change it, not for the world.............I'm going home tonight, home to my beloved Valley.

  • lovely, i am excited too. Worked at home so i would not miss it. Looking forward to my bag of chips
  • Cant wait!COYR!
  • We have gone too long without a game - need our fix!
  • Just got back from seeing Roger Waters perform "The Wall"...an awesome evening.....off to bed now for an early morning 6.45 am kick off (makes a change to 2am kickoffs)....happy days.
  • Good post Soundas i love matchdays
  • Its strange.

    Before the two Sheffield games i was stupidly excited / nervous. Today i just don't have that same sense of expectation, even though it is a huge night on paper, against a team i think has the potential to outplay us.
  • Don't worry AFKA I'm sure as the time gets nearer you'll be up for some bunter with the rest of the crowd...

    ...oops I meant banter of course. I'm such a silly old oaf.

    Were did you get that picture of him?

    Was it the first game back at the Valley?

  • How many do you reckon MK will bring tonight? Couple of hundred? They don't have many fans

    We are 15 points ahead of them so it won't be as nervy as the Sheffield games
  • Hi people, enjoy the game tonight I cant make it. That pesky little fella with a bow has deemed it fit to have Valentines day on a match day. Spending it with a new loved one....however I will be thinking of my one true love :) COYR!!!!!

  • Really looking forward to tonight.
    No.2 son is bringing his girlfriend with him, her Dad's a West Ham fan so hopefully a new fan for us.
    if we lose she will get dumped
  • Haven't been nervous all week but I'm starting to feel it a little bit now. I think the fact we haven't played in two weeks and don't have a recent enough performance to go on has thrown everything out of whack. MK will start brightly but I think in the end our quality should shine through. As for the away attendance, I'm going for 15. Just 15 people.
  • I suspect it will do us some good- the team hasn't lost out training wise I undertsand and a few players probably needed a rest. We are a better side than MK Dons according to the table so a full strength, fit and hungry team with that little bit more quality is likely to shine through IMO.
  • Now dressed and ready to go, is it to early to fill my flask?
  • It's funny I was quite relaxed and looking forward to this one without any nerves.
    Now I'm feeling a bit anxious about everything after reading this thread! :-)
    Suddenly Worried of
    Maidstone
  • More nervous about this game than about the Sheffield games.
  • Have faith people.

    The table says that so far we are the best team in the division.
    Chris Powell will drum into the team that complacency is not an option.

    No point being nervous, that will only create an atmosphere at The Valley that is fraught with tension - and make it difficult for the team. Is that what you want?

    Get behind the lads right from the start!

    Been looking forward to this game for some time, up until yesterday was convinced we'd gte a bit of a humbling but in the cold light of day think it will be quite the opposite. Feeling overcome with optimism and it feels dirty

    4-1 Charlton; BWP, Green, Haynes, Jacko

    edit - wrong post but still relevant
  • Really really really nervous about this one. Sitting on the bus today I had butterflies in my stomach... Now that is how nervous I am.
  • I'm so excited about this , i think i've got my Charlton appetite back...

    Those of us that went to their place will know why!

  • You lot better win tonight, I've got you down to win on my accumulator :-)

    I was nervous after that, they gave us the run around first half. Thought they'd be chasing us a lot closer than they are, but some iratic results from them, suggests as many had pointed out great first 11 when all fit but once they pick up injuries or lack of form they'll fall away.

  • I wish I could go but it's not easy from California. And, Soundas, your post definitely created an image. Roll on Oldham, Walsall and Carlisle when I'll be HOME.
  • What are the odds on Alan Smith getting booked?
  • They haven't won in 6, I just don't get this obsession with Franchise as a rival for automatics, beaten at both Sheffield sides and at Stevenage.
  • Lets get The Valley rocking tonight!

    A massive atmosphere and noise will help us massively. We have got to be the 12th man tonight.

    Get the impression they play pretty football at times but are not very effective in getting results, best example being 3 up at Brentford to end up drawing 3-3
  • Good at getting draws at home, but went to Hillsborough and Brammell Lane and got beat, lost at Stevenage. Think you've got it, they play pretty stuff, but don't win games, if they did, they wouldn't be 15 points behind us
  • Missed my fix, even if it is in the form of Player. Going to try and get some sleep then up at 00:45 to listen
