Why Yann gave us belief

“Kermorgant has hardly been prolific in a career that has mostly been spent in the French Ligue 2 and his signing has left me pretty underwhelmed if I’m honest and I hope that Powell sees more in him than the record books do.”
– Chicago Addick, Sept 14th, 2011.

Yann Kermorgant did not only become a Charlton hero, but he also gave us belief.

Belief that first impressions can be misleading, belief that everything is possible, belief that when a football player pulls on the cherished red shirt, he can wear it with pride, like you and me.

There will be new heroes, and no one person is bigger than Charlton Athletic Football Club, but Yann was a bit of a one-off.

Thanks for the memories Yann.
