Diarra had the armband today and really led by example. A great player to have in the squad.
Defo. He is a top top player and leader
I think the best thing is that, every single player, wherever they are French or not, look up to him for what he's achieved in his career. It's good to have that sort of role model with this extremely young but talented team

Great to see someone like that, still with the hunger and desire. I guess he wants to add a promotion to his list of achivements!
Jacko stands alone in his own Jackosphere of the great Jacko legend that he is. There is only one Jacko and I for one accept no imitations, love the player.
I have it on good authority that his birth certificate says 'Colin John Jackson' but he never liked his first name, and demanded to be called Johnnie as soon as he could talk.
He's in a good position to overtake Don Welsh. It's possibly that he could overtake Monty Wilkinson as well in that list, but that might be a challenge too far.
The club's stats regarding Jacko's overall goals are correct in the handbook up to the 2014/15 issue (p32), when he had 44 in total (although the same table incorrectly says he scored four the previous season, when in fact it was five).
Since the start of 14/15 he has scored five times: two last season (v Norwich and Bolton) and three this term (v Fulham, Sheff Wed and today v Brum). Taking him to 49.
Incidentally, did you know that when Jacko has scored (49 times), Charlton have lost on just three occasions (v Swindon in Jan 2011, v Sheff Wed in Jan 13, and v Leeds in Nov 13). Amazing given his impressive scoring record and and the poor runs we have been on at times in the last five years.

No Dennis Edwards? I'm sure he scored more than 50 goals. The late Johnny Summers too.
Maybe they both managed it in less than 200 games.

And I've been going since the days of Andy Peake in ill fitting shorts at Selhurst Park.
The only one of seventeen, never to have played as a forward.
But before we get carried away, sorry to say its only 49 goals
10/11 14 goals (13 league, 1 FA Cup)
11/12 13 goals (12 league, 1 FA Cup)
12/13 12 goals (12 league)
13/14 5 goals (5 league)
14/15 2 goals (2 league0
15/16 3 goals (3 League)
Confusion over a goal scored at Luton in a cup replay where Jackson took a free kick but it deflected in off Racon and was credited to Racon.
So still needs one more for the big 50.

It's the goal at Luton in the FA Cup replay that causes all the problems.
And since the sad demise of Colin Cameron, I wouldn't believe any of the club's stats.

Come in number 4 your time is up.
