Alright ladies and gents, my time here in England has come to an end, I jet back off to Chicago at half 3. A massive snowstorm and 60 mph winds have closed some roads in Wisconsin so I'm annoyed to be leaving what is for the moment, a very sunny England!
I couldn't have imagined how amazing this trip would be and I was overwhelmed by the friendliness of everyone associated with Charlton Athletic. This club is different, nothing else compares to the sense of community this club has. When I go home, my mates who support Chelsea, Tottenham, and Man U will be rethinking their choice after hearing my stories. Rest assured, I shall continue to try and carry on the Charlton legacy in the states and attempt to convert more people to the red and white. (Will also do some snooping around on the new supposed american bidders)
Thank you all for a lovely week, and thanks again to all the lifers who took some time to say hello and chat. I hope to be back over for another game sooner rather than later.
COYA!

To be fair, it's on record on the last Charlton Live, I said if we lost both games I'd take full responsibility and flee the country ASAP. We drew on Saturday so I wash my hands of any fault lolBedsaddick said:Don’t come back you’re a bloody jinx

Was good to meet you in the museum. Shame it was so busy that we couldn't chat properly.

Thirty years ago, we had a hardy crew of Dundee lads who would make the journey periodically to follow the Addicks and the loyal Ad Poot and friends from the Netherlands who have never tired of trekking to the Valley or away games to be with us. I could never have imaged a lone fan of only 22 falling for the club from afar, joining in on our very British messageboard and going to the expense and personal journey to make the trip from Chicago to see these Addicks. Maybe Jessie will manage the almost unthinkable and come here from China next!11

Fair play for coming all the way over. Nice to very briefly meet you, shame we didn’t win either game but you got the ‘winning feeling’ in both games for a while, saw what sounded like a decent match v Cardiff and got to experience real old school football grounds by going to Luton. Spread the word and maybe you can start a US Addicks fans group in future assuming it does not already exist. Safe journey home.1

Good to have met you briefly Ross.
All the best.1 -
