    The claim that the cover is from the 40's is incorrect. The Cover is from the late 1930's.

    It was used both in the 1930s and 1940s.
    The exact programme used as a template was from a game against Spurs in 1942, I believe.
    We show the original cover on the contents page.
    I wonder when we'll next play Spurs in the league.

    A testimonial for the next person to stay two seasons.

    What's the betting on the SMT open letter to fans then?

    a) an olive branch pleading for a new relationship between club and fans

    b) a warning about fans behaviour being monitored and transgressors to be dealt with firmly

    c) a bland load of tosh about new season, high expectations, fortress valley etc

    Or will everyone decide not to buy one to avoid putting money into Duchatelet's pocket?
  • The last one for me, Davo.

    Me too Fanny. But my money is on a mixture of c and b.

    "Roland won't sell Charlton as he wants to make it a success here" is what I'm putting my money on

    The time to judge us is now...whoops, Katrien Meire already f*cked that one up.

    Perhaps she'll go with 'I thought I explained this already...'
  • So they got the idea for this from Nottingham Forest not CARD? Yeah, course you did.

    CARD version is free, and better, and isn't published in North Korea.

    Classic quote of why you need an 'agree' rather than 'like' button sometimes!

    To be honest, it doesn't matter what the statement says. The message from the owner and SMT has been the same since they took over.

    Whilst I was on work experience last summer (2015), Olly mentioned to me then that this was his idea for this season, so "copied" is a little unfair, but understandable why some believe that to be the case.

    It comes with a free pull out agreed behavioural contract.

    It was a joke, they are copying old programme covers, so did CARD, although I'd prefer to say CARD's were an homage!
