Hi @paulbaconsarnie the bloke who was named turncoat Tom was a old mate of mine his name was Tommy reed and he lived at the bottom of Eltham hill not far from the Yorkshire grey.why he started to support millwall is still a mystery to me, haven’t seen tom for at least 40 years.I believe he’ll be 70 this month.

That’s him. He worked with my other half for a few years on the post and left around five years ago. A very young 70 and kept his hand in on building sites for a while but not sure if he’s still doing that. See him only a couple of weeks ago in the old Chequers.
Tom ‘the head’ as Captain used to call him. Davo55 I used to play in the same Sunday side as Tom. He told me he went over to Millwall as it was more fun at away games. How’s Johnny.

Johnny is @Davo53 who posted the comment Steve. He's doing ok for an old git. Comes on here now and then to share his wisdom with us

Paraphrasing here … TR once told me, probably about 40 years ago, that he was fed up going away with Charlton where there’d only be 20 or 30 going toe to toe with the opposing fans. Whereas when he started going away with Millwall, there’d be 200 or 300. As Acab said, more fun for him
Read on a previous thread about the away game at Watford I think it was 79-80 season we lost 2-1 and then 'bumped' into Arsenal at Euston (waiting for Spurs we assumed who were at Coventry that day) anyone recall that occasion?
Remember coming back (possibly from Watford but earlier maybe early/mid 70s ) & running into tottenham, there were a few scuffles until they realised we were Charlton & not man city who they'd been playing that day. At the time there was a bit of a tie in between us, a lot came to a testimonial game (could have been for Brian Kinsey) when we played Chelsea. Chelsea got battered that night. I think a few of the Spurs lot were from Lewisham & knew some Charlton & so came to some of our games.

Few spurs got a dig at the great Harry in Woolwich last week before the Aberdeen game, for those that don’t know they have a hooligan link, allegedly big bad brave Dante melted afterwards

Someone told me about it last week, somebody else showed me a video yesterday and gave me more details, allegedly a mobile was called later and Dante declined to meet

Not the way the law works now. Probably best not airing this on social media.
Superdulvertonred asked about big Kev Croydon. He sadly died back in the eighties. Mog, Gary will be in the Lib Sat with me, Big Brother. I still travel home and away with quite a few mentioned on here already e.g.. Dicky Lukes, Steve and Mick Rogers from Orpington , Welchy, Bradley, Dave Greenhill, Big Kev Hopkins, Andy Wallace, Aubrey,
NO mention yet of Jimmy Jarrett. Big turnout at his funeral a few years back. And more recently THE CAPTAIN. Billy Martin Still goes.Hasnt missed a home game of any sort since Dec 69. Does anyone remember Bomber. He was a steward during prem days. Back in the 60s and 70s I used to go to many away games with Kelvin Cook, Turncoat Tom the Head who became a spanner, Chrissie Barber, Graham Ellis. The last time I saw Keithy Giles was at Derby years ago, he was a steward there.

If it's the same person, then that is my old man!
The Kelvin Cook that ACAB is referring to was a fireman. So if your dad was a fireman then that's him.

No Kelvin Pettyfer was a fireman. Kelvin Cook was a spark. Retired to Portugal.

We started travelling to many away games from 1975 and remember Jimmy Jarett and all that mob. .We always travelled by train with them . . we were younger 15/16 year-old's . . We travelled with Paul Aplin, Steve ( Dartford ) and little Ray amongst others. .Dennis was always on the train bless him. . we still travel and will be at Peterborough on Saturday . . COYA
