    I really hope that whoever edits the Player video understands that this time want the pre and post match highlights as much as the game itself

    Does anyone know the song that was sung/played around 2-50? The first time the coloured cards went up, whatever it was, it was brilliant for the occasion and that one moment of red and white!

    Dodgy camerawork as I had to hold it over the guys head in front. Or maybe my nerves were shot:) Hope this vid works.

    Absolutely brilliant speech, and he had the tone of voice of a man that enjoys public speaking too. Boy, I bet he's inspiring in that dressing room.

    So pleased for Chris Powell, and I look forward to welcoming him back to the King Power next season. I said he'd be good for you. Congratulations.

    How lucky we are to have such an inspirational great man at the helm. We may look back in years to come at the greatest Charlton manager. I hope so, with full respect to messrs Seed and Curbishley. Great to see Curbs at the Valley too btw - he really seemed to soak up the atmosphere of a full rocking Valley - I think it meant a lot to him.

    what a great song... thanks for posting this. Sitting in the East Stand it was a special moment with all the red and white cards on display. the 2 singers in the middle singing a lovely song and the backdrop of the players lined up together arm in arm and a packed Valley, It showed us all as one "big family" fans, players and everyone alike. Well done to everyone who played their part in yesterday. I also know who writes our scripts for this season. I thought we were never going to get back in this game then all of a sudden 3 quick goals and a 101 points to end the season perfectly. I am so cuffed with this season. Sod the FA CUP.
