Hello from Graham Tutt

grahambustertutt

Hi fellow Addicks. It’s Graham Tutt here. It’s very apt that we are playing at Sunderland today because, for those of you that know your Charlton history, that’s where I played my final match for The Addicks. I suffered a terrible, career-ending injury in that match which was shown on that night’s Match of The Day. So I guess I have a connection with Sunderland for all the wrong reasons! Anyway, if you haven’t heard yet, my autobiography comes out on Monday and I really hope you’ll have a read. I collaborated with lifelong Addick Matt Eastley who wrote The Charlton Miscellany and Charlton On This Day. It tells the whole story of my childhood and how I became a professional with The Addicks and then gives a detailed account of the day I sustained the terrible injury. And then of course, my story after that. It’s a story that spans three continents and has more ups and downs than even Charlton’s recent history! So, it’s a bit of a rollercoaster. I’m so proud to have played for this great club and I hope that comes through in the book. I take nothing for granted but maybe you’ll buy a copy and enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it.

Ordered it on my Kindle. 

I thought of you when our two play off victories were against the Mackems 

Did Finney ever apologise to you.

Thanks Richard - You'll find out about Tom and I in the book - Enjoy!

I remember booing Finney years later when he came back to play at the Valley for Cambridge. Good luck with the book, Graham. Mine is ordered and paid for.

Good to hear from you after all these years Graham.
I recall the incident vividly.
Good luck with the book.

The club need to get Graham on the pre match interviews on Valley Pass - would be good to get some players on from the 70’s

Good luck with it.
