We moved on rapidly during this period, as all our stars aligned. So sad that our stars burnt out just as quickly.
What a brilliant pic. Give or take that was my view for a couple of seasons from 1992. The grass looked wonderfully, implausibly green in those early weeks. I loved being home and also having the best pitch too. ❤️
I had almost the same view from 92 onwards for a few years. Got to love that portakabin!
Apols for this opportunistic post. Will be dragging my soon to be 67 year old frame around London for the fifth (and undoubtedly slowest) time tomorrow, this time raising funds on behalf of Alzheimer's Research UK. We donated this photo to the nuseum several years ago and it shows my mum (centre) and her sister Brenda (right) at Wembley in 1947. Sadly we lost both to dementia. The orher lady was their friend Eileen. Her stepfather was South African, and I believe some of the CAFC South African contingent used to sometimes go round to their house in Bexleyheath for South African fare. I remember her mentioning Normsn Neilson by name. Should you like to make a donation to ARUK, please go to https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/keithpullenlondon2024
Never knew him but used to see the kid with the ski hat at most games back then.
Still goes I think (JS?).
Kid to the left of him in blue coat with white zip has lived in America for 20 odd years. Kid to the right of him in green coat has never ever been a Charlton fan and I assume just come along with his mate!

Just to say, managed to drag myself around in 5hrs 39mins
6secs (age 66), around the length of a football match slower than I achieved
last time, in 2019, but a lot of water has passed under the bridge since
then. And between us, lead by the inspirational Sue Strachan, Sue's
Crew has raised over £70,000 to date on behalf of Alzheimer's Research

Or is my mind playing tricks?
