I am a grown man (honest!) but why do I look at that picture and want to smash the shit out of two tossers dressed in ridiculous mascot costumes...CAFCTrev said:6 -

I hear Ian Holloways available, he's certainly provided plenty of entertainment at the Den this season.0

Good news that Floyd and Harvey won't be "put to sleep" but will be retiring to the Museum where visitors will be able to see them from next season.
They first appeared at the Valley in September 1998 for a game v Coventry.
They were "adopted" from a firm in Wimbledon called Rainbow. The design of the dog was from Mick Everett but the names were from Peter Varney1 - Sponsored links:

Back at Selhurst we had a robin, which I think was sometimes inhabited by Gavin off the Junior Reds coach.nth london addick said:Who was before Floyd and Harvey

It used to throw Blackjacks to kids in the crowd. My brother and I once sussed out who was in the robin suit by his trainers. We saw him on the way into Selhurst before a game.aliwibble said:

Won't they take up a lot of space?Henry Irving said:Good news that Floyd and Harvey won't be "put to sleep" but will be retiring to the Museum where visitors will be able to see them from next season.

Did we have mascots before Floyd and Harvey? I can't remember any.0

Yes as Henry has acquired two glass topped coffins to display them in...7

They will take up a lot of space so won't be on display all the time3 -
Let's hope the poor b******s that normally wear them can find alternative work - would be a bit tedious sitting there day in.

No, no, no. It's a haddock we want, not Captain Haddock.LargeAddick said:
TinTin, Snowy, Captain Haddock and Carruthers & Carruthers would be great.Macronate said:Poirot and TinTin is the rumour.

A terrible injustice that shames this club yet again,
Free the Charlton two and give them a decent retirement in a home for clapped out mascots0 -
Part of me quite likes the haddock idea but it would be difficult to put it into practice because it would be tricky to design one that didn't look very silly indeed (see above example) and would be subject to ridicule by the away support. I'd say it was nigh on impossible to give anything other than a cartoon fish anthropomorphic attributes. (Nemo looks like Mesut Ozil doesn't he?) Fish don't have legs so having them sticking out the bottom of a costume is always going to be daft. Also arms are quite useful for a mascot to hug kids, etc and a fish with arms - well....Finally, fish (seahorses excepted) tend to be horizontal and humans tend towards the vertical.
So, in conclusion, I've decided a haddock would be a fish out of water. Unless we can get Marvin Sordell back.
Here's the Rutgers University Scarlet Knight. Something like that carrying the Charlton sword maybe? (Although I concede that a horse and the pitch might not be a good mix!)

I quite like the knight in armour idea - without the horse - but with the sword.
But then I have always liked the nickname "Valiants" too.1 -
How about a fish and a robin called Addock and Chirrups?
I'll get me coat.0
