What Will You Do To Push Us Over The Line?

Our club needs a collective push to get us over the line. Before the Middlesbrough game (our last win btw) I promised I'd eat some cheese if we won - and that for me, like anyone with normal taste buds, is a true horror. We did win, I did eat the cheese (there is video evidence).

I'm prepared to repeat the exercise, but I can't shoulder all the responsibility. Perhaps others can contribute, a united Addicks demonstration of commitment. So what abhorent thing will you pledge to do if we get the point we need against Hull?

    I’ve been changing turnstile every game to no avail. I feel lost tbh. I think my last attempt is to wear the polo I’ve worn to the last two Wembley outings

    Relax. Just brie yourself and take it cheesy. We'll be fine.

    We have changed seats from quadrant to covered end lower and I think I will wear the shirt that was last worn at Wembley.

    If I thought it would help, I would:
    1. Go to pray at the mosque
    2. Talk sympathetically about non binary and LGBTQ+x2q with a straight face
    3. Praise the French government for their efficient bureaucracy 

    The last one would kill me I think.

    I think the Hull team are in the same hotel as me tonight. Now, where’s that fire alarm?!

    Yes I’m wearing what I wore to Wembley.
    Maybe we should all bring our flags?!

    I am giving the last game a miss watching my other team playing Essex at the Oval. That should help the Charlton team.

  • I’ll being giving our players a tour of the goals on the pitch and letting them know it is legal to score more than one goal in them.
  • I shall be wearing my lucky jockstrap - last worn circa 1985 in a Woolwich and District league match promotion season. Never been washed since!

    This will only lead to own goals
  • Get a speeding ticket and declare the driver as Charlton Athletic. 3 points. Job done.

    I’ve been crossing my fingers for the full 90+ minutes watching the games on Charlton TV. Also having a cup of tea in a Charlton mug at half time (it worked last year).

    I will do neither tomorrow.

    Forgo the half time choccy fingers. 

    Successful at away games ( well, mainly for 1 point) but useless at The Valley of late. 

    Sometimes you just have to make tough decisions.   :(

    I just want this season over without relegation. 60+ years and it doesn’t get any easier.

    I’ve been sticking to the same turnstile all season but it’s not been working recently so I’m going to switch tomorrow. My lucky Wembley underpants will get another airing though as will the shirt I wore at Wembley.

  • Had to watch the start of the Ipswich game on my phone on the move, in a normal t shirt. When I got home Charlton had been doing so well I was hesitant to change into my Charlton top, which I always wear to watch.

    Superstition is famously bullsh*t so I stuck it on and we conceded about seven seconds later.

    For this game I'm not superstitious. But I am a little stitious..

    Inspired by afka, in addition to my normal lucky charlton hoody i have this morning dug out the charlton top i bought for the playoff semi-final and final last year and have put both on for the dog walk. We have always won with this combo. 

    Sadly my son had school cricket he cant get out of away at Cranleigh so he's going to have to uber to school to get the school coach today and watch the match on the coach rather than me take him. He's always been with me when we've won and so hoping the cricket doesnt break the thread of fortune

    I went hunting for points last night - found rather a lot at the Seurat and the Sea exhibition at the Courtauld. It’s the Denise Coates (as in Bet 365 / Stoke) gallery so a bit of a football connection.

    I'd love to follow the last play-off final routine but flying to Bangkok, visiting the Mrs's village and watching the game on a laptop on a dodgy stream in the only place in the village with wifi isn't quite possible.

    I was watching Leicester v Millwall last night and after much soul searching and sick making I was actually watching with all fingers crossed for a Millwall victory. I did this for the greater good. Thats what I did.
    Now ban me or give me a Promote for my moral sacrifice if you must but I was only doing my bit.

    I’ve just spilt a tomato sauce and mustard combo down my top - I did this at Hull away on a pair of brand new white reebok classics in 1986 and I think we drew or won that game - I can do no more

    No way , I’d take the relegation rather than than forgo one of your choccy fingers inside me
