POST-MATCH THREAD: Charlton Athletic v Portsmouth: Saturday 12th September 2026: KO 15:00
Charlton looked to avenge last season’s poor results to this afternoon’s south coast visitors, Portsmouth. Millenic Alli makes a return to the starting eleven to face his former club (who they bizarrely mocked throughout), with Ivan Mesik coming in on the right for Amari’i Bell and Danny McNamara returning on the left,…

MATCH THREAD : Charlton Athletic V Portsmouth : Saturday 12th September 2026 : KO 15:00
Hi one and all, and welcome to a Saturday 3pm Valley kick off… Today we are entertaining Portsmouth in the second Valley fixture in three days after our disappointing 0-0 against QPR on Wednesday evening, at least we added another point to the total, but could and should have been three, Portsmouth come to The Valley…

Fans Bar
For the first time in ages I went to the Fans Bar post match. I thought it was a bit empty given that spirits were high having rescued a point. Now I know why! One bar was shut at 5.45pm and last orders called at 6pm! Peroni was £7 a pint and I’m not sure what I’m getting to justify the price. Added to which when I ordered…

Food quality at the Valley
I don’t like to have a moan especially after a great performance but I think the food behind the counters inside the Valley is appalling. I had a sausage roll and it was dry as anything and quite frankly it was one of the worst ones I’ve had. A mate of mine had 1 bite of the Pizza and it was cooked underdone that he had to…

Goals
A lot of people were slightly worried where they’d come from this season. The last couple of games are beginning to show why. Campbell has obviously been on fire with them but we need other midfielders/attackers to step up. Jones has obviously scored three goals, which means that our recently poor set-pieces are also…

Bag Limit Size Ban at The Valley
This seems to have snuck in as a rule completely unannounced from Saturday's game that bags bigger than A4 are banned from The Valley, CAST are on the case but I'm disappointed at the zero communication from the club about it, especially as I often have a rucksack with me to carry a coat & water, or whenever I come…

Alan Wood - request for info
Alan made one first team appearance for Charlton in October 1972.

He was a midfielder aged 17 but never got another chance and left for Dover on a free transfer in January 1974. I am…

But what about the player who scored the goal?…

It evens itself out over the course of the season...
... or so the saying goes. The last three games have had some abysmal decisions go against us. If we discount Stoke and just look at the last two matches, with competent officials we'd be two points clear at the top of the league. If we discount the TC offside/onside against QPR as it was in the first half and the game…

Football facts that don't sound true (but are)
Inspired by the Aguero not being a PotY conversation, what other facts do you know that sound like they shouldn't be true but are? I'll start with a couple.

Last season we ended up with 53 points from 46 games. One way of comparing the progress we make is to compare last seasons results to this season fixture by fixture.

Elderly neighbour rip-off causing small dilemma
Overheard a conversation yesterday between the my dad's elderly neighbour and a 'trades-person' taking place in the neighbour's back garden. He's clearly been ripped off.

In 2/3 years he could of been playing men’s football, but instead he will be stuck in the reserve and sent out on loan until he’s 26 and probably wasted his best years. 🤷🏻♂️
