You lot have this really weird need to be reassured that we do think of this as a big game...like a needy bird.

Have to agree on the tribal aspect of football, im not a violant person never have been and doubt i ever will be but you sometimes have to defend yourself, if we lose that spirit in football then it will be a lesser sport for it, IMO.
I like the Red and White army song and the RD as they have made a difference. If the flares get so hot you need to throw it, it must be capable of causing injury. My guess is someone will be banned very soon. Or someone will lump them for chucking it near them. Don't shout me down, I'm just a bloke sitting in H block who knows his history.
So how long you been going DRF. The club is in my blood, and after years of stick from millwall boys it's actually nice to see charlton stand up to them. That's all I'm saying. Now pull that thorn out my side and go and sit in the west with your bovril
Bit confused as to where Charlton stood up to anyone?

So two games v big London clubs before they were forced to live parts of the stands empty and the final game of the season when they went up from Division 3.

Personally I am not into the mini Danny Dyer stuff and found some of the events that went on at the end embarrassing.Let's do this the Charlton way and not be dragged down to Millwall's level.
But what I also felt was that we outsang the famous 'Wall' and to use Kenny Jackett's phrase did not allow Millwall to bring the crowd into play because we generated a good atmosphere.Indeed it could be argued that it was SCP who could bring the crowd into play because our resilience both on and off the pitch was impressive.

Not sure about anything that harmed outside the stadium but almost to a man our supporters stood up to the (in)famous atmosphere at the Den and bossed it noise wise.
I'm sure Millwall will today begin re-writing history.
We're the red and white army song - don't like it, too palace - our fans giving it large yesterday - loved it - all those giving it all the moral crap on here - go and watch rugby or something - charlton has always had a complete cross section of fans - middle class, working class, trainspotter types, proper hard cases - w've always had an 'element', a 'firm', and although i'm not into it personally, if our lot turn there's over i'm all for it. Not politically correct maybe but football is tribal and that is just an extension of it - it's the greatest game in the world and its all part and parcel - return game in march? bring it on - gang of pie and mash eating, lacoste wearing posers.
Proberly the best comment/ post I've read re all this millsmall malarky
...and this 'firm' element supports Charlton Athletic Football Club by insulting and confronting opposing fans?
It does seem those that are condoning the actions of others throwing objects on Saturday do have poor spelling and grammar. I wonder if there is some sort of link between the two?
just see the video of the lad stamping on the seat and throwing it on the pitch. so easy to see his face and is only a matter of time before he is arrested.
was going to post on here but will probably get moaned at.

Agreed with atmosphere wise, was poor from us, sometimes these sell outs don't work for us at all. I was even more surprised because at least inside you were making noise & being a bit feisty, which normally brings the response from us, but it was pretty damp on our side.

Apart from inside the ground I don't think they insulted or confronted anyone outside, either before or after. I personally thought it was good to see an away following bring a bit more life to the ground. A few things were a bit muggy, but unlike most people, 1 idiot ripping a chair out doesn't mean I think you're all rampaging scum.

There are probably some youtube videos showing what happened outside. Kids these days are so naive.

Perhaps they're used to having secretaries proof read for them? :-)

Agree, although there was quite a few Charlton in New X calling it on with very police.
Both before my time but having coined the name "spanners" in Voice of the Valley" it was an obvious next step to describe the place half full of Spanners as the "toolbox". All there on record.
I know you kids weren't going then so no shame in you not knowing that

Fair play to those 300 Oldham fans.
I was in the away end that game, home fans invaded the pitch horses came on and everything. Always the victims....
So two games v big London clubs before they were forced to live parts of the stands empty and the final game of the season when they went up from Division 3.
Then us who they don't care about : - )

It takes some finding as the list is so long but it's there in 1994.
