Was he the first sub?Bedsaddick said:19 -
Looks and sounds as if Chrissy Powell was on top form!
Today shows just how far we are away from 'proper charlton' we really are, despite being constantly told we had it back during the summer!
Recon a few players today would still manage to get into our first XI!!
Seeing today's pictures and the 'feel good factor' that radiates from the players and those there (versus the almost manufactured and laboured 'feel good' of the first team and Robinson) really has me excited and looking forward to days when this naff regime is out of sight!4 -
And I'd give your right as well :-)nth london addick said:

I've given that a like, but it does not remotely begin to convey how much I like that picture and the caption.Bedsaddick said:12 -

Was impressed with Webster's commitment today, some proper tackles . At least if he injured someone he could give them physio afterwards!
I met Simon Webster briefly in the White Swan after the Upbeats charity walk last season. Top man, was a towering strength in our central defence in the 1990s; remember that magnificent performance against West Ham at Upton Park? He is physio for the Charlton women's team, and also heads at team of physios at a City gym near Cannon Street station. Based on his own unfortunate history of double leg-breaks (twice), he has devised revolutionary regimes that reduce recovery times.

What I loved about today was how there were various players on the pitch from different great sides of the past that hadn't necessarily played together before but still embraced the occasion of celebrating what Charlton is about.
Kinsella and Jackson in the same side!6 -
Doesn't matter how slow they are covering the pitch, they can still get their hand up to vainly appeal for off-side in double quick time.AFKABartram said:3 -

Spent most of the night and early morning at the big fire in Snodland and by the time we left I was worried I was going to stand my lift up. Anyway he didn't get cross as he also works for the fire service and luckily we made it in time for the game.
Had a cracking time and enjoyed seeing some old heroes grace The Valley once more.8 -
Wonderful day. Such a blast from the past. Huge credit to KP and all past players who turned up.
SuperClive apparently arrived just in time - after night shift and a delayed train - for the half time shootout. He then had to leave swiftly as he is on shift tomorrow morning at the Nissan factory. #footballers #changedtimes19 -
That is class from young Kim, as were the two goals in the snow from even younger Kim.Henry Irving said:Manager of Saif Sporting Club who flew from Bangladesh just to play.

What a great day. I have to say what a great bunch our ex players are. We ( The Museum ) representing the fans presented all the players with a copy of the Centenary book and they were really appreciative. They all played in an era where they still have to work for a living and still have a strong bond for the club. We managed to obtain some superb signed pictures which will be available to supporters in the near future. Shame a few more supporters didn't attend , you missed a treat2

absolutely gutted not being able to attend.
Old Div 1 and Prem years got me addicted to Charlie so would've been great to see the boys.6 -
Wow fucking hell *charlton37

Was great to be at the Valley again with my sons to watch real Charlton players without giving any money to Duchatelet. Seeing the Paul Walsh cameo brought back so many memories.
Reinforced my view that the only way forward is new owners and that to go and support their team of misfits and sick notes, after so many years of these greats, only extends the time before that will happen.5 -
Sterling job there @cfgs - I live on that road (the other end thankfully) but can't have been a nice night.

Hard to think he played less than 100 games for us, seemed so many more.Weegie Addick said:Wonderful day. Such a blast from the past. Huge credit to KP and all past players who turned up.

Just heard that on Charltonlive, back to the car factory where he was before being a footballer, he was quite a big gambler I believe, would never have earned enough to retire I guess but still surprising to hear, in the premier he must have been on 5k a week surely?0 -

Really good day.
Kish has put on a bit of weight in the last few years but, my christ, he still covered a huge amount of ground today. Has the stamina, speed and touch of a much younger bloke.11
