    Not sure he’d get too involved with us again. He’s just moved to the Midlands. 

    Maybe not  5 day a week but having such a popular Ex manager and player involved on a part time basis in some capacity seems like a good plan if Chris Powell's managing and coaching 1st team days are behind him.

    He could be a mentor to our young diverse academy age groups if he still wants to get on the training pitches for 2 or 3 days a week for a few hours?

    Probably a credit to our Defence that Jones, Ramsay or Edwards didn't get into this... But still surprising the amount of blocks, interceptions and clearances they made.

  • Apologies if already posted, here's a YouTube video from Watford fan in Jimmy Seed on Saturday. 

    Made some decent comments about us at FT. Worth watching just for Watford fans reaction to there non-penalty and seeing home end erupt with Knibbs goal. 

  • I cant seem to find decent footage of NJ giving it to the Watford fans, apparently it kicked off a bit afterwards due to his 'celebrations'!

    that feller over his left shoulder has got an appalling barnet!

  • Saw this wee fella amongst the Smile Like You Mean It quality photos. Anyone know him? I love it 🥺🥰♥️👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
    My Wife's great grandson George, his first ever game at Charlton with Uncle Kelly (from the States) and brother Jake. George is a fantastic character, said after the game from his seat near where the corner was taken advised Connor Coventry where to place the corner, so helped Charlton to a great victory!

    Brilliant :) 
  • We are one game in, and I think I have already seen photo of the season.

    What were Dave and SCP chatting about before the game? Didn't get in until 5 minutes after kick off so totally missed the pre game stuff
    SCP was introduced to the crowd and BDL asked him about his time at Charlton and his relationship with the club and supporters. 
    My mate loves SCP equal to me. He's been a season ticket holder for 37 consecutive seasons......




    at Hillsborough!!! 
    :'(  
  • I have to be honest and say I have had my reservations about our manager but I am growing to love him. Maybe he is somebody you have to get to know. I loved the Watford fans calling him a Wanker all game then him going up to them at the end and giving them victory fist pumps. Then they get upset! Football fans are far to precious and I loved that. I wouldn't do it, but then again, I wouldn't tape my fingers up and there are lots of things Nathan does that I wouldn't do. So I didn't get the man at first but I think I am getting him now and that is why I am liking him. This has nothing to do with results. I was more than happy not to like him and have him successful.

    We started watching Ted Lasso again last night. The “wanker” chants rang a bell after Saturday -  at least NJ only has to suffer them from away fans! 

    At one point I said to Mr W that Lasso had a touch of NJ about him (or vice versa) and that was before he said that his great joy came from getting his players to be the best version of themselves 😀
    Started watching Ted Lasso on Saturday. It's so crap but I love it!

    Nothing wrong with a bit of team bonding.

    I never realised just how hilly the pitch was!
    No wonder we score some many more goals second half attacking the covered end.
  • Late to post as been basking in a very satisfying win ! Funny thing is when Knibbs came on I said to my Grandson ‘ his first touch will be to score the winner’ ‘ I wasn’t quite right but not far off ! The quality of football was so noticeably better than last season. We will definitely have tougher games than Saturday but I think we are going to be just fine. I don’t see us in a relegation fight. I know it’s early days but I think we have enough quality to be ok & might even surprise a few. If we beat our noisy neighbours then I really will think anything is possible !
