WE WANT OUR CHARLTON BACK

The days we went to Charlton and enjoyed it
The times we were happy to travel for a day
When the manager managed without strings
When the players actually turned up to play.
WE WANT OUR CHARLTON BACK!

Kids waving red and white scarves and cheering
The big flag carried over the covered end
"Valley Floyd Road" heard loud and far
Being proud to bring along your boy or girlfriend.
WE WANT OUR CHARLTON BACK!

All those happy premiership moments and years,
Those times of division one and league one glories
Clive Mendonca and Kevin Lisbie hat tricks.
Telling our children all of our Play-Off Stories.
WE WANT OUR CHARLTON BACK!

When we had a board room and chairman
That worked hard and we knew actually cared.
When we had trust for our club no matter what.
When all vital plans and information was shared.
WE WANT OUR CHARLTON BACK!

There were hard times when we were exiled,
But we the addicks fought, came together as one.
The heart and passion, drive and determination
At Charlton Athletic was second to none.
WE WANT OUR CHARLTON BACK!

The Valley Party, The veterans, the legends.
For all the moments we shared with our dad,
For Floyd and Harvey instead of sofas and DJs
It's time to bring back the good and erase the bad.
WE WANT OUR CHARLTON BACK!

Instead of a CEO we have a puppet without brains.
Instead of a manager we've been given a clown,
We are fans we are not merely customers.
These idiots need to leave Charlton, club and town!
WE WANT OUR CHARLTON BACK!

Together we have faced worse and got through
These Belgians are wrong, we want what is right.
Keep protesting, keep campaigning, be heard.
We are Charlton we will win this fight!
WE WILL GET OUR CHARLTON BACK!

    Great stuff - it's even better if you read it in the voice of John Cooper Clarke. :smile:
  • We have always been a losing cup side
    But today the team didn't even show up.
    To think, these idiots sacked Chrissy Powell
    After losing in the quarter finals of the cup.
    WE NEED OUR CHARLTON BACK!
