Wow. I was given a Valiant 1000 last night - a sort of late Fathers Day celebration - and it’s very difficult to put down. It is highly readable, comprehensive statistics of course but much much more than that with player descriptions and highlights and what happened to them before and after Charlton.
Just poking around at this stage. First player I opened up at was Nicky Bailey. - sadly and most unfairly his reputation was tarnished by that missed Swindon Town penalty. The Nicky Bailey entry finishes “despite his parents having run a fruit and vegetable stall, he claimed to have never eaten a salad or vegetable in his life, preferring his regular fare of nine tasty chicken nuggets from McDonalds before every game”.
The book concludes with Hall of Fame, Player of the Year and other notable awards. Most pleasing though was a warm accolade for our Jean - This lovely lady gives so much of her time and energy to her beloved Charlton Athletic and is the first person to run to the assistance of anyone in need from within the Charlton Family.4 -

Query - as you've already done A-H in volume 1, and I'm assuming I-Z in volume 2, any future numbers will potentially feature those with surnames beginning with letters in volume 1. Will a volume 3 just go for new numbers regardless of surname?0
