    Terrific statement. How on earth he managed to stick it out for so long is beyond me.

    Huge respect to you Dave. What the feck are we all gonna do when there's actually nothing left?
  • RedChaserRedChaser
    Dave's got too much dignity and class for any shenanigans.

    No doubt Katrien will come up with a ridiculous idea for his replacement.
  • LargeAddickLargeAddick
    well done Dave, you have had a great run but have made the right decision. Once RD goes I'm sure you will be back.
  • Covered EndCovered End
    Dave, can you leave Katrien a present on the way out ?

    You mean, like Katrien....

    Aw shit. A great announcer. I'll miss him :(

    As for his replacement, I can think of an eloquent young chap called Louis...or two ;)

    Funny mix of feelings, this - sad that another part of "our Charlton" has gone but proud to read that it is on principle and that he will be joining the protests.

    All the very best @BigDL. Still vividly remember you announcing my arrival on the Valley pitch as a substitute in the Charlton Life match all those years ago!

    That's how to leave a club!
    Well done BDL.

    Urgh god remember that other Stadium Announcer we had a few years back now...

    He was god awful, no links to Charlton, never sounded like he cared about the club and ended up taking up a similar role the moment he could elsewhere

    You know we're going to end up with one of those announcers like:

    Announcer: Coming on for Charlton Athletic is Number Nine... Nicky?
    Fans: Ajoooossseeee
    Announcer: Nicky?
    Fans: Ajoooossseeee

    He could have stood in the centre circle and "mooned" the directors box.

    Good luck Dave...voice of the valley gone.

    Another job to advertise! How many vacancies is that now? Or will the crowds be so small this season that we'll just pass a note around.
  • RedChaserRedChaser
    It'll be like the sofa, grab someone in the crowd, stick them on the mic and away you go.
  • LargeAddickLargeAddick
    Zach Bergdich is available
  • ForeverAddicktedForeverAddickted
    Glad he's gone after seeing that picture... You can clearly see him leaning to try and pinch that bloke's phone!!

    Isnt good Dave, isnt good one bit!!

    They are good for generating some atmosphere but only work with a fanatical crowd. Ours would sound like a kids playground

    Wow 24 seasons... I'm 33 so that is the voice I have heard through all of my CAFC supporting days.

    Must have been a tough choice, hopefully he'll be back when this shower eventually fk off
