    Just discovered another famous fan: General Dwight Eisenhower.

    He attended the Football League War Cup (South) between Charlton and Chelsea, which Charlton won 3-1.

    "After presenting Charlton with the League South Cup at Wembley in April 1944, Ike told reporters, 'I started cheering for the blues, but when I saw the reds were winning, well I had to go on cheering for them.'" 

    Proper Charlton. 
    Glory hunter... ;)

    Born in Plumstead but choose to be Charlton, not an Addick by accident of birth.
    Most people are addicts at the time of birth in Plumstead!

    Ah, gotcha.



    We should ask her to take over DJing duties after the game even though her choice of music may cause the odd heart palpations in the blanket and thermos ranks.

    Still don’t think enough was made about the Bip Ling music video. Moment has passed now though, sadly.

    I'm sure I remember back in the Premier League years reading that Ruud van Nistelrooy supports Charlton. Does anyone else remember this? Well, today his twitter account popped up and sure enough he follows Charlton.


  • Didn't Benzema too? Would have been a decent pairing

    I think we could possibly add Jorge Costa to that list.
    Without doubt he holds a great affection for the club and ‘perhaps’ could be called a fan……at a stretch?
    Certainly an honorary Addick if nothing else.

    As a young fella whenever he came to London he stayed with a family (family friends maybe), who were Addicks and took him to The Valley (or Selhurst Park) a few times…….so the story goes.

    Yes, her dad’s an Addick, mum and her are Wet Spamers.☹️
    Maybe she was spotted with him at Wembley 2019?

    My son was coaching in Norway recently and the team he was with had a Charlton fan  in it. He didn't get to meet him as he was coaching the young keepers and he was sold pretty soon after he arrived. I don't think this had anything to do with being a Charlton fan though! I suppose it is a stretch as even in Norway he was probably not well known.

    This is correct. She was on on Sunday morning show (I think trying to cook something) question who do you support? and the answer was mum is a West Ham fan dad is Charlton so those two

    She also appeared on Soccer AM with the nails of one hand painted claret and blue and the other hand red and white for the same reason.
