Be patient with the website, it’s loading a little slowly at the moment, but some good stuff from Jacko in these three stories

    I also dream of Johnnie Jackson reaching 500 appearances at Wembley. And if we're chasing the game late on I can't think of anyone I'd prefer to be trying to get on the end of a corner.

    Just had shivers thinking about Jacko scoring a last minute winner at Wembley in front of the Charlton fans... it would be absolute glorious mayhem.

    Anyway enough dreaming for now, we need to get to Wembley first!

    While it would be lovely to see Jacko get his 500th appearance at Wembley, I'm not even sure if everyone is fit whether he's actually make the 18!

    This is Charlton, we don't do "everyone is fit".

    That sort of fairytale ending would probably be the only thing that could rival the 1998 Wembley win. Would easily go down as one of the greatest Charlton moments of all time.

    If we are 1-0 up at Wembley with 5 minutes to go, I can’t think of any better tactic than subbing a striker and bringing on Jacko.

    Should have done that against Oxford at home (and others this season).

    Although 500 apps is pretty decent number his phone must be mega giga bytes to hold that number of apps. Now I don’t want to enter a sizest debate, oh no, but my piddling 43 apps is kind of on a small scale in comparison. How many apps do you hold...?

    I always worry about that tactic, as if you then concede you then have to play 30 minutes of extra time with limited attacking options

    I noticed that for the first time he didn't take the armband of Pearce when he came on Saturday.

    Was this a conscious decision or an oversight?

    Perhaps he sees himself as assistant manager now and the captains role belongs to someone else.

    Having Jackson on the bench and as an option to bring on makes a lot of sense, whether it’s wembley or either of the two games we have to get past before we can even start thinking about Wembley. Him coming on gives a shot of adrenaline to the atmosphere and, if used wisely, can turn or secure a match.

    Pearcey said last night it was an oversight... And he was hammered for it!

    Think he should make his 500th appearance for last few mins on Thu at The Valley with us 3-0 up. Then save his final goal for Wembley on his 501st.

    and finally, the award for an outstanding contribution to Charlton Athletic since 2010... it's the skipper!

    A real Charlton legend, @johnnie_jackson! #cafc
