Can't stop singing the songs in my head, all day, and even when I wake up in the night! Still buzzing and shattered at the same time. Fantastic day.1

I'm in a Charlton bubble and I like it.6 -
It would have slightly lessened the elation, as at the back of your mind there will be the "no point celebrating too much as it will be ruled out in a minute" thought nagging you...Weegie Addick said:Now just imagine if we'd had to wait for VAR???0 -
Someone might have mentioned it already but the only disappointment was that Chris Solly didn’t get any playing time after being at the club throughout the bad times. Not a criticism of Bowyer or AD who played brilliantly but just a bit sad3

He did his bit and he knows it. That first penalty against Doncaster was very important.25

My favourite clip!AddicksAddict said:
I’m glad Wembley told us it was a goal at end of that clip. I’d have never known otherwise.MrLargo said:I am so happy. I've watched the highlights, bought a load of newspapers, read everything on Twitter. Was at a wedding in Essex last night, drove back this morning, took a detour passed The Valley, stopped for breakfast at The Valley Cafe.
My favourite non-Charlton/England goal is Michael Thomas' league title winner for Arsenal at Anfield on 26 May 1989, exactly 30 years to the day before yesterday's play-off final - I always look at the Arsenal fans behind the goal, wondering what it would have been like to be in that moment, the split second before it hits the back of the net when you're suspended between agony and ecstacy, and then it goes in and for the next minute or so it's like someone's plugged you into the National Grid and turned the voltage up to maximum, but in a good way. And now Charlton have got their own Michael Thomas moment. I've watched this clip about 50 times, it never gets boring, just pick a different face to watch every time and then the mass carnage across our end of the stadium. Glorious.0 -
Not sure it's been noted and don't think the TV picked it up either but noticed Lee and Naby, having a shouting match, lots of arm waving by both so not surprised he came off at half time. They were in each others face and I wondered at the time whether he would come out for the second half!! Baby shark bites0

Peter Shirtliff, Richard Rufus , Patrick Bauer - -- remarkable that all 3 Number 5s have scored vital goals for us in play offs..... -- I remain convinced that this must in fact be some sort of dream - this doesn't happen to CAFC does it ?

Is this the longest post match thread ever?
If not it should be.
I love this thread, club, manager, team and fanbase.1 -

Going up the steps and waiting to receive the trophy he did look a little despondent, or maybe just very relaxed. He isn’t one for the spotlight so maybe that had something to do with it.JohnnyJoeyDeeDee said:Someone might have mentioned it already but the only disappointment was that Chris Solly didn’t get any playing time after being at the club throughout the bad times.

Either way - he lifted the trophy for Charlton at Wembley at the end of his testimonial year, and his status as an all time Charlton legend is cemented.1 -
And it was cemented quite a while ago. Another layer was added to make it nuclear bomb proof on Sunday.3

Maybe everyone should have a 5 in their squad number next season or, at the very least, a single number 5 somewhere on the kit - guaranteed goals at crucial times!1se7 said:Peter Shirtliff, Richard Rufus , Patrick Bauer - -- remarkable that all 3 Number 5s have scored vital goals for us in play offs..... -- I remain convinced that this must in fact be some sort of dream - this doesn't happen to CAFC does it ?1 -
It was massive. Great pen, showed how it’s done!MuttleyCAFC said:He did his bit and he knows it. That first penalty against Doncaster was very important.
Mind you the Donny pens were amazing, until the EFL striker of the year took one ;-)2 -
Lets hope if we can keep most/all of the present squad and that we can
emulate the 1930's when we gained consecutive promotions under
Jimmy Seed. Just waiting for Lee B to sign new contract then
will get hopefully my old season ticket seat back. COYR!0 - Sponsored links:

How about, in small numbers just above the badge "93:54"?Briston_Addick said:

I hope you enjoyed yourself as much as we did.To the tune of 'My Old Man's a Dustman':When Naby passed to Dillion,We thought we'd fucked it up,But 90 minutes later,Sols lifted up the cup.Bows took us on a journey,He said we're going back,Now Charlton's in the Championship,Always on the attack.

Wonderful stuff. Thank you everyone for reliving the day for those of us who had no way of attending. I missed 98 as well for various reasons, it is amazing how modern tech and this thread have given me a taste albeit vicariously of the day. I have tried to "like" them all.
Grateful, Soapy.4
