I said before the game that he should be dropped for the final two games as more and more games seem to have passed him by recently. Very happy to say I was quite wrong.
He played like a true captain from the kick off. His presence and attitude in those first minutes gave me confidence we were going to do it, and without him I think we might have messed it up.

Completely agree.
For a couple of years I have felt games have passed him by but last night he was excellent. I even said to my brother in law that it was the type of game he would score in. A true captain's performance last night.
Half a yard slow in his legs, but a yard quicker with his footballing brain. Timed that run for the 2nd goal to perfection last night. Best captain since Kinsella.

Not as good a player obviously, but a better captain than Kinsella, as he's much more vocal. Kinsella led by example, but wasn't the sort to gee things up on the pitch
His effort and attitude and committment to the cause cover up for his tiring legs
How lucky did he get for last nights goal , i thought he had a swipe and got lucky with how the ball fell ,although he reacted to finish it off brilliantly , good luck for him and us for once !
And, along with Wiggins, Cousins, Harriott and Solly, he has signed for the long term. We have the basis for an exciting season 2014-15. These last two years we haven't had nearly enough home wins - Jackson and the fans certainly add something to the mix when it matters.

Controversial - not sure I agree with that to be honest but maybe a debate for another time

But the thing is, he'd arrived there to get that swipe in.

Agreed, how many of our other players would have the instinct to make that lung busting run into the box from deep
Lost count of the amount of times this man has got us out of trouble. The fact that we have a player who has been here for four years and wants to end his career at the club says a lot. There aren't many players out there we are going to get who will love Charlton that much.
This man simply HAS to be Player of The Year for me.

Sorry, but he's definitely not player of the year. Player of the match, even player of the month, but far too often he hasn't managed to be as decisive and influential as he was last night, games have passed him by. I love the bloke, I want him to see out his playing days here and step up as management material, but that performance was the exception not the rule this season.

Not possible because a load of knobs have voted for an ex player

Looked as fit as anyone else on the pitch and always gives that extra 10% as skipper
If we are gonna have a team of youngsters who better for them to see grafting and leading by example next to them.
Top man JJ

Love Jacko to bits, proper Captain.
Up there as one of the most important signings in recent years, for me. Top bloke and always gives everything.

Jacko and cafc are now both synomonous with each other
He didn't hesitate he didn't question he signed and said thank you
And then he repays you
Johnnie Jackson is a mans man a real man
Thank u JJ
Hope he can keep playing next season.
