    Filming in the museum today for an upcoming TV show but which one? Wrong answers only 


    Thanks for the hospitality, Ian and Ben. We had a fantastic day.

    I’ve been lucky enough to work at some incredible grounds over the years, but today was a proper highlight as a Charlton fan. The museum is a real credit to you both, and I hope more fans make the trip to see it.

    I’ll let you know when it’s on the telly. It’s always tricky doing justice to football on a non-football show, but I’ll be going all out in the edit.

    Felt very proud of the club today.

    Thats the bloke from Antique road trip/ Bargain Hunt Tim Weeks aint it?
    when do I collect my museum trolley dash voucher then?

    Great to welcome Aussie Addick Ian Clarquinn and his family to the museum and give him his first sight of the inside of the Valley

    30 hours travelling and 1st stop was in SE7

    Ian was watching the 1998 play-off final in Australia on late night TV and became so enthralled that he decided whoever won, they would be his English team

    The rest is history.

    I bet he regrets not thinking "I feel sorry for whoever loses, I'll support them".

    Scrapbooks are fantastic fan curated archives and invaluable historical records (our earliest are 1930s) so we're very grateful to the family of Paul Cruickshank, who very sadly died aged 79 last week, for the donation of this and other scrapbooks. 

    RIP Paul

    Thanks to Vince Nieszwiec for donating these items from the 2005 supporters' director election, and a big bunch of programmes, to the museum

    The museum is lucky to have most new items donated but thanks to the generosity of #cafc fans we have a fighting fund to buy items at auction. This morning we picked up some rare photos for £42 plus commission. We're open now until 2.30.
