Saturday was my boys 'debut'. Here are various things he said:
We want Roland out because Roland is pooh - pre game, maybe we can get that chant going ?
Are the balloons for Rolands birthday? @ kickoff
I think Charlton need to practice more - 10 minutes in
Can we sit over there (Jimmy Seed Stand) as they are having fun.
Why is no one singing here (East Stand)
DADDY !!!! You said a naughty word.
Do we have to watch another half?
Can you put my photo on the balloons next time it is my birthday?
Can I go again some day ? (the poor fool)

I'm sure I didnt have this level ability when I was five years old thats for sure
My son said - do you do this every St Georges Day ?
Was I wrong to feel a small amount of parental pride?
They may as well get used to it.
I wonder if they expect all football matches to be like that!
My daughter who is now 28 accompanied me to matches for many years as a kid, until she discovered boys, going out and getting pissed etc, is now a parent herself. Trouble is she has already penciled me in to introduce her daughter to Charlton. I just do not have it in me to put an impressionable young uncorrupted mind through such torture. But in respect to my forbearers little Ella will have to go through the pain. On the up side starting her in Division Three will means things will only be looking up... er, hold on!
It was an obscenity bellowed in the direction of Djimi Traore when I was lost in the moment.
Maybe a word with your good lady is in order.
