    Some good came of this as new friendships were forged although I sadly have to report that Ballon Man was subjected to widespread balloonist abuse from a number of our idiot supporters and ended the game minus a leg, an arm and an eye. So bad was the damage that Gaz said a fond farewell and launched him into the wind toward balloon heaven.  Last seen blowing across the Solent, I gaze longingly out of my window this morning waiting for Balloon Man to appear over Stenbury Down.
    You're lucky that Balloon Man didn't act as a voodoo doll, or you'd have been in a bad way this morning :)
    The paperwork is still with the EFL, but Balloon Man is going to be our final signing of the window.  Just waiting for the medical to go through.  He may not be quite ready for Saturday.

    I keep a puncture repair kit in my bed side table.  Just saying, next time go prepared!
    Is that incase a condom goes home on you?

    It did seem like there were a lot of non-Charlton fans there last night. I didn’t see any trouble other than the obvious but it does sometimes make me wonder why so many ‘neutrals’ turn up at certain games. I mean, I could count on one hand the number of non-Charlton games I’ve been to in the last 10 years. But to each their own etc.
    Is this for real? "Non-Charlton" and "neutral" fans in the away end?

    On a Monday night in Portsmouth? In January?

    Honestly. I couldn’t understand it either.

    With my usual crowd there is 1 arsenal fan who comes as one of our mates and just enjoys the away days and boozing etc

    I’ve been found out , I’ve been hiring cheap shit young actors to fill up our away ends , the embarrassment of our followings  got too much for me and this was my solution 
    Are you responsible for player recruitment as well?

    Why doesn't he go boozing at Arsenal away matches instead? Certainly be cheaper.

    If it was the West Ham fans that always seem to crop up at our games then I have every sympathy.
