MATCH PREVIEW: Cheltenham Town vs. Charlton Athletic - Saturday 8th August 2026 – 5:30pm KO
Cheltenham Town vs. Charlton Athletic Saturday 8th August 2026 – 5:30pm Kick-Off Referee: Alan Dale Introduction Let’s be honest here… It’s been another Footballing summer of disappointment, of arguments, of glory that has been so close, that at one time you could almost touch it… there have been tears as well… But enough…

Best 'Charlton players' who never actually signed
All this stalled transfer talk is reminding me of some of our greatest non-players! There's Delort obviously, but then more niche ones of late like Mo Eisa, and I swear we wereonce rumoured to be signing Paul Pogba's brother!? Or is that just me?

As with the past 2 summers, I will update this thread with a list of all incomings for teams in our division. First though we will likely see outgoings with the retained lists that will be announced by most non-playoff sides this week. However Norwich jumped the gun and actually announced theirs last week, so will start…

Under 21s (Match updates and news) - pre-season friendly v Dorking Wanderers (p411)
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…

Home ends you have been in watching Charlton
Charlton away games only, i have done quite a few home ends for one reason or another. Mostly I think because in the 70s and 80s things were more relaxed in terms of crowd control and security and my Dad would turn up with us at local grounds and it was natural (and probably safer sometimes) to drop in the home end. Later…

Groundhopping
As the smallest away contingent thread has been derailed a tad I thought I'd open this for us enthusiasts of a new ground. Shrewsbury will be my 92nd for a second time, I completed it before in about 93 when I visited Mansfield. I will be contacting Shrewsbury and hope that I get an acknowledgement in the programme.

Women's World Cup 2027
Lots of Charlton players are with countries that have a respectable chance of qualifying so perhaps it's worth giving this its own thread rather than distracting from the main women's team thread.
