    "The Dentist" - one of a number of people to claim to be, or to have been, the lawful owner of Charlton Athletic. 

    Not a dentist.

    Naby hit the ball as sweet as a nut. Yes the Nabster should've made sure the angle was such that the ball had 0% of going in the goal if Philips cocked up.  Remember Robinson on England duty.

    Akin Famewo's effort was a gentle flick on the ball which I can't get out of my head.

    "Bowyer's lost the plot, he's playing Pratson"

    LLL&BH: an acronym for Charlton Athletic's companion song "Live, love, laugh and be happy". The song typically referenced by a Charlton fan whilst lost in a thousand yard stare.

    Have we had "Tactically naive" meaning "we lost and I am looking for ways to blame the manager whilst appearing to know better" without saying so.

    "Legs have gone" - a common phrase to describe aging footballers who are slowing up, but one used for a long period of time here exclusively when discussing Johnnie Jackson, whether agreeing or disagreeing with the premise...

    "Footballing brain" (usage "he's fast and terrifies defenders, BUT he hasn't got a footballing brain") meaning he made a mistake once when I was watching.

    The Patels/Mr Patel. Unscrupulous, untrustworthy potential buyers of any wares being sold such as Charlton Athletic FC. Originates from house selling Tragicomedy as related by the long suffering @DamoNorthStand’s here: https://forum.charltonlife.com/discussion/94990/new-house-buying-thread-dec-update-from-damo-p24/p1

    Poisoned samosas, stolen measuring tapes and staplers feature heavily in the tale.

    "Highlights".
    On some football fora/forums, the best bits of their last match.
    On Charlton Life, strictly relates only to hair

    I understand that Makros have installed extra security cameras as a result of a recent significant increase in CL members congregating for full on unsupervised punch ups.
    The club have been informed.

    Do you have to bring your own pop corn and are the fights under Queensbury rules ?
