  • lovely man and REAL Charlton .. he knows his stuff and doesn't make a big song and dance about it
  • top guy. Norm and Seb are the 2 people I always look out for home or away, it somehow feels wrong if I've not seen them both
  • I first bumped into him during our Selhurst Park days on  the bus coming home. Top bloke. Always has a smile on his face.

    Look like Richard Pryor in that pic....😉
  • Known him since the 80s. Superb choice. 
  • Doesn’t feel right if you’re at a dull northern outpost , with a dismal Charlton away following , if you haven’t seen headphones Norm and given each other a nod and smile 
  • Where his ushanka?


  • Known Norman all my life - from the same Estate. A true Gentleman and a Charlton Fan through and through. 
  • Norm has done the hard yards. Good to see him recognised for it.

  • Never met the gentleman but always remember seeing him when travelling away with my children 100s of years ago. Congratulations to him, well deserved.
  • Congrats and despite being one of the younger ones on here instantly recognise him. 

    But a starting eleven without Cullen or Bielik, not sure he does know his stuff!
  • It wouldn’t be Charlton without him. 
  • I never knew Norms surname, but always knew him as headphones Norm.

    This fella has been at away matches for as long as I can remember, and it almost wouldn’t feel right or normal if he wasn’t at a game.

    They say never meet your heroes, well, I got on a train recently and Norm was on it, I was so awestruck I didn’t know what to say to the fella, so Norm I apologise, your sir are a true charlton legend, with great style in headphones!
  • Always look out for Norm on a northern away trip though he wouldn't know me if I walked into him.

    Lovely write up. The only thing puzzling me is that I think our ending of Huddersfield's unbeaten run was a tad more than two years ago. Would love to do the same to Luton,  though.

    Brian Cole asked him on Saturday

    Apparently he likes to try and find out information about the opposition that we're playing that day etc.
  • Well deserved award, Norm .
  • Very well deserved. A true gent of a man but I do prefer the fury hat :smiley:
