    Expect a White chap with ginger/brown hair, he will properly have a microphone and will tell some jokes.

    I think he sings the odd song as well, a real old-fashioned variety performer.

     

    Unfortunately, he's not a very good singer .... or comedian.

    Saw him a bunch of times in the millenium lounge a few years back when we were doing well. He was supposed to be on the wagon, but looked a right mess.

    he say's the same jokes all the time, there are the 'noisy jack and danny', 'the hairy jack and danny', the 'chalkie' jokes. and the 'disabled access' joke.

    He is funnyish if you are not too 'P.C' , but don't think I would pay to see him.

    JD knows FA about Football. Not really a Charlton fan, just jumped on when we got to the Premiership.

    Sat with him and John Virgo years ago at a Charlton golf day at The London Club. Virgo was great, Davidson was pissed.

    That's the night I asked Curbs if he would like to be manager of West Ham, he said he would swim the Thames for it. He was sober !!

    Played that day with Graham Stuart , what a great bloke. Not sure what year, but it was shortly after West Ham thumped us on Boxing Day.

    I think the day was something to do with a charity for blind footballers.

    He did a great impromptu gig following the tesimonial match between Bournemouth and Charlton for Neil Young, attended by close family (including Luke Young) and a few friends. I got the impression he was proud to be a Charlton fan and not just along for the ride during the good times.

     

    I may be wrong but I think you will enjoy the show as long as you know what to expect.

    I remember JD hanging out the window of a Roller waving at our coach going to Bristol Rovers in about 1978. I think he's got a life sentence like the rest of us...

    Ive just read in the paper that he has got a 6 month driving ban for having too many points on his license!  I hope he'll be able to still make the Weymouth show on the 24th Aug.  Ive never seen him live and i wanna heckle at him lol.  I might even bring a wheelchair and sit in the front row? lol.

    Think people are a bit too politically correct when it comes to JD and up their own proverbials. He was of his time but there is nothing wrong IMO with people thinking he is funny and it is unfair to judge him in the context of today. He was a very good host of the Generation game and Big Break and whilst I won't be queueing for tickets I ope others do.
