After the game last night I was so proud of Robbie Elliot. Hes the same age as me, I play in goal and I could just imagine what it must have been like to be out there looking up at that North Stand.
The kid is still young goalkeeping wise but he put in a brave performance last night, talks well with the defence and hes heart is in it. I think its time for a song!
Also, is it just me but does anyone think we should employ Chrissy Powell to run out the tunnel at the end of the game. I was waiting for it last night!!

That boy genuinely bleeds Charlton.
If he doesn't then he is in the wrong job. He should be in Hollywood because is a marvellous actor!0 -
I'm sure I heard that he is a boyhood Charlton Fan and is also a local lad!
Could be wrong though!
;o)0 -
Born & raised in Greenwich I believe.
Basey is a Sidcup boy too.0 -
yep that's what I heard as well.
N.B also liked Kinsella's clenched fist salute to the north after the game, just like the old days...0 -
What about the Man U song for G Neville
Robbie Elliot is a red
Is a red, is a red
Robbie Elliot is a red
He hates Millwall/Palace (delete as applicable)0 -

Kin, Kin, Kinsella!0 -
He grew up supporting Charlton. He would have been as ecstatic as any of us last night. Living the dream of most of us. Well done Rob.0

Elliot's old man used to work for the club.0
-
one of the very few pros out there qualified to kiss the badge and mean it0
-
And we (Bromley Addicks that is) own that badge as we sponsored his shirt. Result.
Should get a decent amount when we raffle it off.0 -

He's a better keeper

Because of all the above m8, he is Charlton proper and that's what we needed and got.0 -

I'm not trying to be picky, but he wasn't regarded as such after the Norwich replay and before the Sheff U cup game. I don't really have a problem with either, just can't understand the switching between them.0 -

Is that a valid reason?
God today is good0 -
He definitely needs a better song that Charlton's number 1, although he probably loves hearing that!0
-
A great moment IMO.......you could see last night how much that win meant to him as a player and a person0
-
I enjoyed seeing his and Basey's reactions at the end of the game - really showed they care0
-
I was chuckling away at him at the end. looked like Charlie when he found the golden ticket.
If you're reading Rob, well done mate. I'm so proud seeing young local lads breaking through, and when they actually have a background of having affection for the club it makes it ten times better.0 -

As I've said before, Eliott is my number one. Last night showed why. Made some good saves, good kicking, and at the end showed how much it meant to him.0

Cup games maybe. A lot of changes were made so it gave Darren a run out.
Personally from the very little I have seen both seem good if inexperienced keepers but I prefer Robbie.
I admit that him being Charlton and, having met him, he being a nice, down to earth guy may bias my view.0 -
That was a bloody great moment from the lad, i almost had tears in my eyes... him going mental at the north stand.
oh and Kin's clenched fist... "dreamy"0 -

Maybe Parky wanted to remind him (Elliot) that he had to work to keep the place and picked Randolph to do that. Gandalf then had a decentish game at Norwich which gave him a dilemma.
After last night I think Robbie has it for a while.0 -
Looking at the way Robbie kept holding his ribs last night gandalf could be back in for Saturday.0
-
it was after that challenge on their attack where he stayed down for about 3 minutes!0
-
Have no doubt he's Charlton, prefer him to Randolph hopefully the ribs will be o.k by Saturday.0
-
Loved it.......
Well done robbie elliot,
it means so much to the fans to see players showing that they care, i hope you go on and make the No.1 jersey your own......0 -
Without doubt seeing Elliots reaction, and Kins doing his fist were two of the highlights. It shows we have some passion in the club.0
-
Charlton fan in winning side at Selhurst Park.
Made a few good saves as well according to the little I heard on the radio14
