  • Just home. What a day, and what a team.

    dug deep again when it really mattered. Bodies on the line. Some celebrations tonight. 

    Love you Charlton

    I've just released we don't need to play in the EFL Trophy next year!
    Hope it does well in the charts 😊
    To the tune of Tina Turners…Thunderdome…🤔😉

    As much as we shouldn't rewrite history and forget how awful we were at the time (all the criticisms were 100% valid), the transformation that Nathan Jones has brought about since then is absolutely extraordinary.

    Well done Nathan and the players, and thank you.
    Loved reading all those comments again. Can't argue with them at the time.

    Gabriel Brener 
    I did wonder, but wasn't sure. I saw Friedman on the balcony too, was Rosenfeld there? 
  • Just a fantastic day - couldn't make 2019 so this was the first time I've been to Wembley for us. 

    It is surreal and I can't believe we've done it again. So lovely to be with so many happy Charlton families and friends

    Just watched the "highlights" on sky, blimey we were lucky to win that, it was all Orient  :D
    It really wasn’t. We were comfortable throughout.
    Hmm, see the laughing emoji, I was taking the piss out of sky making it look like it was all Orient

  • I’m usually a bag of nerves when we are one up but I felt strangely comfortable today. Jones has us drilled so well defensively that apart from a ten minute spell in the second half I thought we managed the game really well.
    I was nervous when we kicked off. That didn't change. Maybe years of watching us f*cking it up defensively just would not let me relax. NJ has created the defensive foundation. I can't remember a better Charlton team defensively. 
  • That final 11 minutes felt an eternity though despite Orient not offering much

    I agree it was tight game and they upped their energy in the second half which they needed to do - they were losing but we matched their energy and we could have scored a second towards the end.

    We have an immense defence. 
  • Why was Godden taken off - was he struggling? What a brave choice to whack Mbick into the frame 
    Only decision I’d question today. Not the game for him, looked well off the pace. Next season should be on a season long loan somewhere.

    From the Charlton twitter feed:
    That's Fullah to the left of Ahadme, yes? And who's that to the left of him?
    Kai Enslin is on Ahadme’s left (the right as you look at it.)

    And breathe.

    For the last few months, my mind has been pretty much consumed with Charlton – hoping for promotion, dreading another season in League One. Nice to be able to switch off from it all for a bit now.

    Just need to squeeze in a celebratory booze-up with the Auckland Addicks sometime very soon. And hopefully another one in London if we have a pre-season friendly first Saturday in July.



  • We end the season how we begun it..... winning 1-0.

    Ironically enough the first two and final two games were 1-0 victories (Leyton Orient being the opposition in two of the games)
