Calling Charlton Supprters in Germany (and Western Europe)
MadGerman
Posts: 164
After the call from CAST for Scotland seems to be succesful, I try a similar shout for Addicks in Germany.
I'm following Charlton since 2003. In the following years I turned some friends into Charlton supporters. From the start of 2015 we are known as the German Addicks. Although we call ourselves German Addicks, we are only 5 guys living in the area of Muenster.
Our aim is to bring Charlton fans in Germany together for informal chats, helping in questions around trips to games and maybe hold annual meetings with drinks and bbq.
Our aim might be ambitious, but let's just give it a try.
Fans outside Germany are also welcome in the first step.

A great group of Addicks that we are proud to know.
Lovely guys and such dedicated supporters.10 -
Hi MadGerman. Pleased to hear that you and your colleagues are still with us. I guess PreussenMuenster is your second team! I have seen them a few times when visiting my aunt, who lived in Hammerstrasse, 5 minutes walk from the stadium. My cousin still lives in Muenster and is a loyal Preussen supporter

Meunster is a really nice city. Loved my visit there a few years back!1

48% of us would be happy to join a group that is for Charlton fans in Western Europe.14

Representing Charlton here in Munich! And as anyone should know 1860 are the real München Team! Many of my friends here know of Charlton's exploits during the Prem years and can name most of the players and of course Curbs! Getting them to sit through a stream for a boys night these days though is a struggle! Can't really blame them!

@MadGerman I've sent you a DM.0

I’d certainly be interested in joining the group. Although I’m back in London now, I lived in Germany for 17 years in two different spells (Hamburg 1991-94, Frankfurt 1998-2012) and would like to make more regular trips post-virus.2

I'll join. Really want to get up to Berlin for a Union game - although tickets for them may be hard to get, the way they are going. Or maybe support them away at Leipzig 1

My late Father - of course a Charlton fan - served in Munster when he was in the Army - he loved Germany - there was a big base for the British Army of the Rhine in Munster and a very large training area - great idea to set up a group for German fans - good luck, and hopefully you can get to the Valley soon (if you can get through customs 😜)1

It's been my pleasure getting to know the German Addicks over the last 4 year's.
Every football fan thinks his club is special.
But the German Addicks loyalty to our club, through good & bad times, reflects so well on Charlton fc.
I had the great pleasure of traveling to Munster in July 2019 for their AGM, ( brilliant English breakfast Marc ! )
A big thanks to Mad German & all the German Addicks.Hope to see you all soon.9 -

My second team is not Preussen Muenster, but I've been there to a few games. If you come over to Muenster post-corona we can maybe meet eachother for a drink.

Your geography is questionable!Weegie Addick said:@MadGerman I've sent you a DM.7 -
Seeing as this is addressed at (western Europe), I‘m in!
I live in western France with my wife.However, I do have several links to Germany:
I grew up in Germany,
my brother was born in Germany
I speak and write fluent German,
my wife is German,
my dogs only listen to German commands,
my second team after the mighty Reds is Schalke 04.
Wenn ich darf bin ich dabei!2 -

Was stationed in Munster back in the early 80’s whilst serving, at times I wore a Charlton Bobble Hat & Scarf when out in the town (Civi’s) gawd the winters were cold over there. Lovely city though, probably didn’t appreciate the architecture as much as I should have, stunning. Still got a set of clay Stein 1/2 litre pots I accidentally took back to camp one night from a pub, now proudly sit in my “SE7” pub I built, must be over 40 years old, still use them.2

@MadGerman Immer wieder Österreich!

Love Germany. Lived in Gütersloh for 5 years (87-92), not at all far from Münster of course. Used to love visiting the town, especially in December for the wonderful Weihnachtsmarkt.MadGerman said:After the call from CAST for Scotland seems to be succesful, I try a similar shout for Addicks in Germany.I'm following Charlton since 2003.

Good luck with the group, mate.0 -

A small fact regarding SC Preussen 06 Munster, they played against Charlton Ath U18s in London
in a friendly in the 68-69 season1 -
After 4 weeks of putting names on the list we are ready for the next step. We've set up a Zoom meeting for next Saturday prior the Fleetwood game. It's going to be just a 40 minute session to get a face to every name. So if anybody, who hasn't got an invitation, is interested, dm me or send an e-mail to german.addicks@gmail.com, please. I will send you the details.
