We've all done it, haven't we? Imagined that we've won a squillion pounds on the Lottery. And ended up with enough cash (after paying for the necessities, like the mortgage, the second home, the flash car, the yacht, the second flash car and the third home) to buy Charlton Athletic.
But, of course, once you've bought it, you have to get people in to run it. The behind-the-scenes team. So who do you put in the key positions? Here's my team:
Chief Executive: Peter Varney
Director of Football: Alan Curbishley
Manager: Chris Powell
Club Captain: Johnny Jackson
First Team Captain: Chris Solly
What do they have in common? Three things:
1. They've already proved themselves
2. All Londoners
3. Proper Charlton
What's your team?
