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,…

Pubs, and the demise of.
Some of you may be aware that the Porcupine in Mottingham has closed down and been bought by Lidl. My personal view is that the place was a dump and would rather it became a Harvester or something along those lines but 1400 people have signed a petition calling for the pub to be saved. Have Pubs had their day or what?

An evening with (unnamed) Charlton legend
As well as serving up cocktails in The Fans Bar, we also do mobile bar catering around Kent, London etc. In November we also opened up a private hire venue in Medway, called District KCL.

Luke Young's Substack
I've really enjoyed reading Like Young's Substack. He occupies a niche which is there to be filled, in providing critical tactical analysis of the matches, from the perspective of an experienced professional who knows the game inside and out. The clips which he commentates over are very helpful in assessing players and…

Energy Bills
I know that the price cap is being removed and prices are expected to go up but ours is going up by around 60% (£600) a year and there aren't really any better deals out there (I don't think the price changes have even been factored into this - this seems like a ridiculously large rise. We do regular meter readings at the…

Quickest sending off for Charlton on debut
Hawa Cissoko got sent off 27 minutes after coming on for her Charlton debut today. I’m pretty sure Djimi Traore got sent off quicker than that at West Ham, but I’m not sure if it was his debut? So who is the quickest Charlton debut sending off? Can these two be beaten?

Comparing 25/26 to 26/27 game by game

To make this comparison possible promoted/relegated teams are paired in last season’s table order so we compare Coventry results against West Ham, Hull…

VAR - are you a fan?
Have to say I was never a fan of it before it was introduced but given the constant criticism of referees it was inevitable it would be used. It has been a disaster in the Women's World Cup - it's slowed the game down massively and incorrect decisions still appear to be made in respect of penalties and offsides. I'm also…

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 the TC offside/onside against QPR as it was in the first half and the game…

380 Bus Diversions
