That report reminds me of the old 'classifieds' in the Evening News and Evening Standard.Henry Irving said:
Shocking violence v Hull in 1971. Thankfully no lifers were involved
Those were the days.2 -
I had one of these badges which I kept for years with my programmes. If I remember correctly there were several variations. I also had one which proudly described me as a “Village Idiot” after one of Nelson’s insults. I had intended to donate them to the museum when I moved house last year but when I looked for them they had disappeared; probably during the previous move. Glad someone else had the good senses to preserve this kind of memorabilia.1 -

'What Jimmy Seed could do with as a manager is a few footballers like Jimmy Seed.' What a great quote1
-
Interesting that the article was written by A. L. ('Bert') Lloyd, better known as a folk singer - he collaborated with Ewan MacColl - and a meticulous archivist of folk songs. Lloyd wrote for Picture Post for a few years after the second war, and died at his home in Crooms Hill, Greenwich, in 1982.3

2 Arthur Whalley signed postcard
Whalley, who later changed his name to Booth, was possibly the first "big name" player to sign for Charlton when we joined the league.
He had won a league winners medal with Manchester Utd but was then banned after his involvement in a match fixing scandal in 1915
Known as the "Black Prince", his ban was lifted in 1919 as a result of his war service with the footballers battalion during which he was wounded at Passchendaele. (see The Greater War by Harris and Whippy for more on sporting icons who fell and served during the great war).
He was Charlton captain during our great 1922/3 FA Cup giant killing run.

But this is one of the best photos and Charlton related items I have seen for years.
Not only is it a post card
Not only are the players and officials in a "Chara"
It's signed on the back.
And Kosher Goodman (back seat) is wearing a bow tie
Charabancs were open topped vehicles often used to transport groups on outings or to away games. This would have been the 1920s and earlier version of Valley Express.
This is the 1922/3 Giant killers along with what I assume are directors and maybe some fans
