    I just wanted to say a heartfelt thank you to everyone who’s taken the time to message since the news came out that I’m leaving the club.

    I’ve been genuinely touched by your kind words and memories! It’s been a privilege to be part of this club for the past ten years, and reading your messages has reminded me just how special this place is and how lucky I’ve been to be a part of it.

    I’m proud of what we’ve achieved together and I will miss so many of you that have given me such amazing support over the years.

    Thank you again — it really has meant the world.

    Warmest wishes,

    Tracey

    Aww.
    @Tracey you’re so awesome.
    We’re really going to miss you.

    I'm really sad to hear this news — Tracey is a Charlton legend, loved by both players and fans. She’s always come across as selfless, and while this must be tough, I hope it gives Miles more space to grow his career. It can’t have been easy for him with his mum looking after his mates at the club. I’m sure Tracey and Carl will still be in the stands supporting Miles and Charlton. I really hope the club marks her contribution at the Watford opening game. She deserves a proper send-off, maybe even her own tunnel jump. Good luck in your next chapter, Tracey — wherever you go, they’ll be lucky to have you.

    Us fans are going to miss you TJ, the club is going to miss you, and importantly so are the players. We all know you did far more work than what was probably in your job description, always there, always going above and beyond.

    We can only hope that the club recruit well, and this is no disrespect to whoever comes in who may be amazing, but you are simply irreplaceable.

    Well done with everything you have done for Charlton @Tracey. Something tells me that you feel the time is right, with the club being in safe hands, for you to begin the next steps in making a positive contribution towards a new challenge.

    On the side, how cool will it be to see Tracey and Big Carl sitting next to each other supporting Miles!

    A very big loss to the club, I will miss our infrequent chats  on PSA testing day and watching her herding mascots  every home match; players for the tunnel jumps; and players children at the end of each season. I would guess that these were nowhere in her job description, along with so much more that she extended her role to cover (ESI departure lounge).
     I doubt that we will get a replacement that can fill her shoes and  in some way or other we must recognise her contribution to the club during the first match of the season. 

    All the best Tracey

    Gutted Tracey is leaving but curious she didnt mention her new job. If she felt overwhelmed by the 24/7 nature of her her role, I'm surprised the club didn't negotiate a change of terms. She is that valuable.

    Our loss is someone else's gain and it wouldn't surprise me if she didnt double or triple her salary. She just needs a link to this thread on her c.v.

    I wish Tracey every success in her new career as player liaison for PNE.

    @Tracey who of all the players has been your favourite to interact with, other than Miles.  Which player needed the most mothering as they weren't capable of sorting things for themselves?  And without naming them has any been horrible?

    This was my thinking too - Carter wouldn’t have wanted to lose her, he’d know how it looks to fans. So I imagine she can’t be convinced for whatever reason. Wish she wasn’t leaving :(

    A pillar of the club's personality for a decade, was very friendly when I met her at the Sarr/Bauer Charlton station meet'n'greet ofc but you only need to see what players have said about her to measure her contribution. Hope she has a bright future lined up

    Tracey should remain part of the Charlton folklore and her picture should sit alongside our great players.
    Best of luck Tracey in whatever you do.

    I’ve already posted this twice but want it kept in the forefront for a tribute to Tracey.
    How about…..The Tracey Leaburn Fan Zone. 🤔👏👍

    Hi Tracey,

    To say I am gutted that you are leaving is a massive understatement. 

    I have seen and said hello to you at many events. (no, I am not a stalker).

    You always say hello to everybody, from the many stories and videos of you doing the players liaison has been enjoyable to watch and read about. I will miss that immensely. (as do the players).

    Then I read and see the many stories of people contacting you and you have gone over and above, not once, but many, many times for everyone.

    Miles, has a great Mum and Dad, taking care of him and his career. 

    Thank you for everything you have done and Good Luck in whatever, you do. 

    All the best.

    Gutted of Greenwich.
    Paul

    A classic modern day corporate job role listing. 

    A huge list of requirements and expectations (that can always be used against you later down the line) but no indication of salary.

    Reads like Tracey's departure wasn't planned otherwise surely this role would have been advertised a while ago.
