2026-27 CL Prediction League Week 9 Fixtures
When I was about 7, my Dad took me on a weekly visit to Blackheath, where we used a couple of jumpers as goalposts and played 'three goals and in'. The rules were simple: once I scored three goals, I took my turn in goal, and vice versa. When it came to sport, my Dad was enthusiastic, although I never lived up to his…

Conor Coventry - called up for Republic of Ireland May 2026 friendly (p37)
Midfielder from West Ham Appleton said: I'm delighted we've been able to sign Conor. He's someone that quite a few years ago I took on his very first loan at Lincoln. To be able to be reunited with him on a permanent deal I'm delighted with. "He's very, very comfortable on the ball and knows his position really well. He's…

Europa League
There was a time when we were talking about getting into the UEFA Cup. I know it was a life time ago, and we were probably never ready for it, but I can't help feeling that no one really wants to compete in it next season. Most of the English teams in it play youngsters that don't get anywhere the first team for a Premier…

Songs A-Z with live video (New rules from page 114)
I saw this idea elsewhere and thought some would like to try it for fun. The rules are you post a song starting with the next letter alphabetically than the one before, but including a live video. You shouldn't jump back a letter if someone gets in quickly. Once B follows A you shouldn't then post an A song until we go…

New Tv series (REMEMBER: No Spoilers)
Right, so i am currently doing shift work, and when i come home i like to unwind by watching an episode of something to chill out before going to bed.

Managerial sackings, comings and goings
The October international break is clearly a chance to wield the axe First Di Matteo gets the push from Villa, and now Guidolin has been replaced at Swansea by Bob Bradley To me it all seems terribly early in the season to make changes...For reference, we sacked Dowie on the 13th November…

General things that confuse you
I'll start: - Why anyone would put an orange fake tan on and think "Yep, looking good". - The popularity of that Kardashian programme. - Most tin openers. - People camping outside a hospital for days on end in the hope of catching a glimpse at a stranger's baby. - American football.

Champions League 26/27
Apologies if there's already a thread, I couldn't find it. Celtic went into the second leg of their qualifier against LASK 3-0 up. They then scored to make it 4-0 on aggregate before conceding FOUR. Extra time about to start on Amazon

Savings and Investments thread
I hope that like many other fine threads on CL this one will be a place where Lifers can share both knowledge and experience to help others. It isn't for "rich" Lifers. It's the way of the modern world that all of us have to try and save for old age. And it is not the place for politics, even though politics affects our…

Cyber Attack
Any of you boffins have a view on the cyber attack warning issued on Monday? It seems the Ruskies are infiltrating not just the routers of business and commerce, but also our home hubs. They are not so interested in whether Charlton play with one or two up front, but rather more in using our collective space to cause…

AITA - extension and neighbour situation.
Classic am I the arsehole question. I don't think we've done anything wrong but happy to be corrected on that and welcome any advice on how to operate going forwards. Background: We bought this house almost exactly 5 years ago. It hasn't had much done to it since the 60s or 70s so was always a pretty big project. Did quite…

Oh South London…
I’m not trying to start a row here, I promise, but I am interested in CL opinions about the South London chant, given that Nottm Forest have a similar ditty and the club have recently asked fans to stop singing it, due to its misogynist/sexist nature.…

Owners- Short arms & Long pockets..........or no pockets?
Touching on my comment on the post-match thread (Watford), I'm curious to what others think are the reasons our board haven't invested in the squad sufficiently over the summer? Is it down to they simply can't afford to? Rumours about their wealth seem to go against this, so is it just that they simply don't want to invest…

The Under 21s Thread (Match updates and news)
On a personal level it is extremely disappointing that our Under 23's are seeking permission to play their matches at Beckenham Town this season. Although 5 matches will be played at the Valley, that is too far for me to travel. Of course Beckenham is far from being "Charlton heartland", but of course the regime are…

I am going to say it!! Yes I am, Nathan Jones......................
Out!!!! yes I said it and I don't care. Shit negative football, making 4-6 changes every game tell us he is desperate and has no clue. Dropping decent players who have played well for no reason. Horrible little manager with no clue whatsoever. How have we come into the season with no attacking midfielders and no wingers.…

England women
I know they say that there are no easy matches in international football now, but that's certainly not the case in women's football England just beat North Macedonia 8-0 in a ridiculously one sided match, which should have been 18. England had 48 shots and 81% possession

Charlton fans in strange places….
Not sure if there is already a thread but this stems from a conversation with @PeteF this morning. His son, Dan, always moaned that people would stop and chat to Pete at games.
