in General Charlton
1st half was a bit nervy, here at any rate, until Gillesphey bent his free kick around the Orient wall in the 31st minute, and Keeley could only just get his fingertips to it. 1-0 up at half time
2nd half is a massive blur, apart from the stupidly long pause while the ref had comms problems. 11 mins of additional time to hold out, but we did it.
Full time Charlton 1 Leyton Orient 0 and WE ARE GOING UP!
Over to you, once you've sobered up

    Well deserved promotion. Winning the playoffs is the best way to go up.

    Love Nathan Jones

    I was nervous, but after that free kick went in I never doubted our defence!
    Now sitting here in front of the telly with a huge single malt and a tear in my eye!
    Come on you Reds and Up the Addicks (go)!

    Oh damn, sorry to hear that @SteveACS. Hope it's nothing too major, and you'll be able to celebrate with family and friends soon.

    Felt confident all day, we weren't particularly great but as soon as we scored I wasn't that nervous (until the non-run into the corner at the 97th minute mark). All credit to Nathan Jones for any feeling like that

    To quote the Duke of Wellington after Waterloo .. 'that was a damned close run thing' .. WE ARE BACK IN THE CHAMOINSHIP .. I have had grave doubts about Nathan Jones, but no longer, he has done a great job, got the players superbly organised and created winners, and long might it continue

    2:40am.

    Time to clock off and go to bed.

    Maybe i'll be able to sleep and then...wake up and think about championship football for the next three months.

    What a treat.
