No, I’m not talking about the players taking it easy over the Christmas period.
I received these as a Christmas gift from the mother in law yesterday, but the matches are a bit before my time. Does anyone have any insight into the significance of the matches chosen? I also have a “football history through newspaper headlines” book and couldn’t find any of them in there...
Even if they’re just random matches it’s still a nice gift - she always gets me something Charlton related!

Probably just random matches. It's one use for old programmes nobody seems to want anymore.1

Chelsea game was one of the most frightening. I was only a kid.
Chelsea fans set fires in the Covered End, fires in the South Stand.
Harvey Gardens turnstiles demolished & Valley Club smashed up.
Oh and we thumped them 4-0 in front of 30,000.
I've always hated Chelsea with a passion ever since, absolute scum.
If you google it, there are other useful links as well.2 -

Being only 11 at the time I don't recall the trouble after the game, I can only assume I left early.0 -

The market is closed until further notice but as soon as the stall is back i'll let you know which ones they've got.0

Yeah she says she got it from a maker’s market 👌0

Ok thanks all0

I have made coasters before to sell in the shop - they are probably done using special sublimation coasters. Basically you print whatever you want onto sublimation paper with special inks and heat press any picture onto the coaster.0
