    @redman the museum is independent.

    We don't get any funding from the club either.

    We were thinking of releasing all 7 as a booklet or maybe postcards.

    Would there be much interest?

    Jimmy Seed's grandson, Jim Dutton, visited the museum today.

    He's pictured here alongside the very long line featuring his grandfather on the timeline created by @Stig

    That was my first thought when I saw them. Personally, I'd like a set of them....

    I'd be interested, but it's a question of how much you can shrink it down and still keep all the text legible. The size of the Valley party postcards is probably a bit on the small side, but maybe 5x7 cards or an A5 booklet might work?

    The museum will find a way to sell them when they are complete. They will also be on our website.

    Bloody Clive Harris finding out about Nobby Nightingale means the first page needs changing and bloody Roland sacking managers means the last page is never finished.

  • An update

    Super @stig has completed the 7th panel, Russell Slade and all.

    To my knowledge, I am now the only person to have his work displayed in both the Charlton Athletic Museum and the Manchester Art Gallery :smile:

    Thoroughly enjoyed my visit to the museum today. There's some great stuff in there. If any one hasn't been, or hasn't been for a while, I can highly recommend it.

    Thanks also to Henry, for gifting me one of the old timelines. At the moment it has pride of place in my living room but I can help but think that won;t be allowed for long :wink:
  • Crikey, seeing our managers since 2013 set out like that reminds me of Tom Baker's scarf in Dr Who and it's missing one.

    Well done again @Stig
