My intending boycott break won’t be happening after all as my Dad’s been taken into hospital.

Heartbreaking seeing the ground look so empty on such an important occasion....I hope we can recover from the damage these bastards have done.

25 years on and the Addicks will be led out by seven of the stars from our first match back at The Valley on December 5th 1992... #cafc

A bit of early pressure from #Pompey, but Holmes wins a free-kick for the hosts (1 min)

Is that Stuart Balmer up the back next to Scott Minto? The positioning of the shadow under his nose combined with the hairstyle is somewhat unfortunate.
