Have I just seen that we are 3rd of the top division?

I always knew we was pretty good and have been for the last 10+ years. We have a high profile women's side and they are relatively successful.

Anyone on here attend the games?

Is it about time we took this side of the game a lot more seriously?

Should our lot receive better support from Charlton fans?

I don't know the answers to these questions because I have never been to a game. I do like the fact that times are changing though, and hopefully one day, women of the beautiful game will receive the same interest and will be taken more seriously until it evens up.

Maybe a MOTD ladies should become something. (Something similar) It would at least allow people to get to know more. Especially if a highlights show like that is on the beeb

Thoughts?

    I don't really know how the league's work. Said we was 3rd and spurs and Chelsea made 1st and 2nd.

    Is it also a location thing? Northern and Southern parts of the UK have different leagues?

    Ok, that makes more sense.

    Still good to know and it's better to be more aware.

    Been to a few home games and really enjoyable. Shame that often they play at home the day after CAFC so can't always attend both. They are pushing for promotion against a team like Man Utd who effectively bought a team and were allowed straight into the Championship!

    If Roland can't sell the club, Charlton's league matches will also be played at Crayford.

    You mean....the days when we worked so hard to get past the 1st and 2nd round.

    Only for a Olly murs to draw us Huddersfield away via 3rd round draw

    Which was for about 3 consecutive years :-)

    Saw the Women's cup final at Upton Park back in 2005 - good atmosphere and we actually won something.

    The women play Huddersfield in the FA Cup this coming Sunday, myself and some of my fellow CasTrust Board members are sponsoring the game so pop down and support them through to the 5th round.

    Charlton have been fined £500 for failing to provide oxygen during their abandoned Women's Championship match with Manchester United on 13 January.

    League rules say clubs must have oxygen on site but when Charlton's Charlotte Kerr, 24, was seriously injured, medics had to use United's supply.

    After an hour delay, the referee called off the game as there was insufficient oxygen left to cover it safely.

    The Football Association says the game will be rescheduled for a later date.

    Charlton have been found guilty of breaching rule 14.5, which states: "Clubs shall ensure emergency sports first aid equipment is present and in full working order at each competition match.

    "Such equipment to include as a minimum a spinal board, cervical collar, fracture splints, crutches, stretchers, oxygen and a defibrillator."

    Before they faced second-placed Manchester United they had already hosted nine games, including friendlies.

    Match at Valley v Millwall coming up
  • redmanredman
    Cup game v Huddersfield rearranged for next sunday, ie 10th.
    Millwall game is next League home game on March 10th, although I don't think the ManU game has been rearranged yet.

    1-0 up v 2nd placed Spurs.

    If it stays like this the table will look like this:

    United 49 points +81 GD (already champions)
    Spurs 39 points +  13 GD
    Charlton 38 points + 23 GD
    Durham 38 points +23 GD

    2 games remaining. 
    Last day is Durham v Spurs so Charlton could sneak 2nd if they win their remaining games.
  • MrOneLungMrOneLung
    Does that get promotion?

    would we meet the criteria for top flight? 
  • Chris_from_SidcupChris_from_Sidcup
    2nd gets promotion..........if you're awarded a license. Absolutely no idea if we qualify for that.

    However we are now 2-0 up.
  • ForeverAddicktedForeverAddickted
    Sadly now 2-2
  • Chris_from_SidcupChris_from_Sidcup
    2-3 now.

    Promotion hopes blown in a miserable 30 minute spell.
