The time has come
For the first time this season I will be at The Valley tomorrow to cheer on Lee Bowyer’s boys. My first Charlton game of the season. I’m shocked by that sentence.
Anyway I felt it was time to get behind the Addicks as we go in search of a play-off place and what was an ever increase improbable promotion when Karl Robinson was in the managerial seat. We’d won one game of the previous 8 under Robinson and I shake my head at how we are still in with a shout.
I fly tonight and land at Gatwick in the morning, drive around to pick my son and a couple of mates up, have a couple of pints in the Oak, hopefully meet up with another expat Addick, and then will take a seat in the Covered End Upper. Come on you reds.
Saturday night a few of us plan to go out for dinner in Chislehurst (hopefully I won’t be pissed off) and then Sunday I will drive down to Eastbourne to see my parents.
Annoyingly I fly back Tuesday, mostly because I had to for a work commitment, but Shrewsbury is a ground I’ve never been to before. Oh well, first things first. Baby steps.
Now that’s what I call commitment CA! Have a good flight and hope that you see 3 pts tomorrow to make your flying visit worthwhile.
Thanks Mark
Don’t shake your head ca. We are still in with a shout because this division is so appalling. Thanks for that roly, now bugger off. Enjoy the day and hope they play like we now know they can.
Bet your glad you are flying back on Tuesday now…
I was very tempted to go to Shrewsbury. Planned the drive and everything but then work plans changed and I had to be with a client on Wednesday, so have to fly back on Tuesday. I was annoyed at the time…. not now..
