Re: 53 Great player though he was I would not have hung around to be fisted by Mark Kinsella. Personally a manly handshake and an autographed programme would have sufficed. Number whatever we're up to: Until you've driven across the Pennines in a blizzard to arrive late at Burnden Park. Then be allowed in grudgingly and announced all too loudly to the Police officers present that "these lads are Charlton supporters can you get them through to the others". Then are led through the packed, hostile paddock, home fans still seething with displeasure at the away sides temerity with taking the lead (natch you have missed that) to finally making the safety of other travelling idiots and then all (and I do mean all) take shelter in the toilets at half-time. Then might I suggest: you are not proper Charlton. Many other away horrors should also be taken into consideration. Oh yeah, we eventually went on to lose 2-1. Thought to be a good result for the boys away from home in those days. Sigh.

396. Thought who? when Karl Howman opened the club shop for the first time 397. Seen the club bottle it in an FA cup quarter final 398. You actually were aware you was a kid for a quid 399. You sang always look on the bright side of life against leeds in 03, spurs in 07 and throughout most of 08-09. 400. You thought Danny Murphy was “the missing link” 401. You thought Hasselbaink was a great signing 402. You vividly remember Shaun Newton scoring a 20 yard header against Hudders, but made it sound like he scored it from 80 yards. 403. You flung a catalogue on the pitch against Leicester 404. Seen Seb do the worm at an away game in front of you. 405. Chanted you’re nothing special we lose every week 406. You saw that Leaburn got a hat trick at Ipswich and immediately thought, typo! 407. You hunted BBC Ceefax page 302, 390 and then the Charlton page on teletext for any information, because the dial up was taking too long 408. Had a moan to yourself when you see a west ham scarf on sale in a rubbish sports shop in oxford street 409. You thought Andy Hunt was going to rip the premier league apart. 410. Chanted “We’re all going on a European tour” but you really knew it wasn’t going to happen 411. Had some randomer shout “premier league, you it up” during the L1 years 412. Had a moment of quiet for David Whyte Whyte Whyte 413. You thought that green white and red hooped away kit was the nuts 414. Bought the Squeeze/Charlton Record 415. Exclaimed excitement for an away trip to Colchester, and then telling the confused united and arsenal fans “you wouldn’t understand” 416. You went bonkers when Llera scored against Swindon 417. You went bonkers at Llera when he got himself sent off against Swindon 418. You dreamt of winning the premier leagie in 2011 after hearing about Zabeels Interests 419. You remember the soccerette Charlton fan who flashed it all on Soccer AM 420. You punched the air when millwall went down, in the middle of tesco 421. Wanting to kick your spurs supporting brother sitting in front of you at Wembley when he says “i can see sunderland scoring again” and then the ball breaks to Phillips
