  1. Just wanted to say thanks guys and girls for coming down for the game, and well done with the result today. Colin Powell would have appreciated the turn out from ICT fans for his testimonial, and if you play like that this season youll storm the SPL. We are all a bit worried about the season ahead at Charlton but we will see how we go.... Anyways, hope to play you guys again in the future, maybe at your place next time around!
  2. Looking forward to seeing as many ICT fans as possible at the Valley tomorrow. Hopefully this will be the first of many pre-season games between us in the coming years!
  3. Might have to adopt ICT as my Scottish team! Now where can I grab an ICT shirt....
  4. Funny you should say that, Rodneys middle name is Charlton, named after the club! http://www.brew-wood.co.uk/comedy/onlyfools/OFHCAST.HTM
  5. Theres the Antigallican on Woolwich Road (very close to the Valley), not the best pub but a lot of away go there as its the first place you stumble across from Charlton train station. Personally Id recommend The Rose of Denmark a bit further down Woolwich road, has that proper football pub kind of atmosphere, and it welcomes away fans. Ill be at the Rose so it would be great to meet some of you in there, dont worry us Charlton fans are a friendly lot! There is alcohol served inside the ground but youre only allowed to drink it inside the concourses, and necking a couple of beers in 15mins isnt the best way to enjoy a bevvy...
  6. Tztztz... We might be better on average at penalties than English and Dutch players, but there have been German teams losing out on penalties against Romanian opposition in the Europa League. So, nothing to bother about We are usually terrible at shootouts, lost one last season to Leyton Orient. At home. Shootouts in Wembley play off finals though.......
  7. ICT / Chelski fan. I was there that day Trev, shockingly dull game of football, hopefully July 27th will be more entertaining. Yep it was very dull, you battered us as I recall, and we scored a goal on the break. Was pretty much our only shot on target the whole match! I love the fact that the only missed pen in the shootout was by a German!
  8. Yeah Darren Bent scored a ton of goals for us, was our top scorer the year we got relegated from Prem, and no surprises that he left just after that happened!
  9. Fair play, its a valid question! I am a follower of Scottish football from afar so I was aware of how well your season has gone, Terry Butcher being the boss an all. I remember the headlines (Super Caley go ballistic...) when you beat Celtic in the League Cup back in 2000. Infact that was probably the first time Id heard of ICT. Since the friendly was arranged Ive been reading up on ICT, had no idea the club was formed from a merger... I guess I probably know as much about ICT as the average ICT fan knows about Charlton. I live in London (20 mins away from the Valley) and I get plenty of Londoners who dont know where Charlton is! Scottish Cup it was Trev...... I was in with the Charlton fans at Newcastle a few years back, one of my mates supports them, unfortunately it was the day Alan Shearer set all those records. Do you remember Jorge Costa ooooh Jorge Costa ooooh He comes from Portugal He feckin hates Millwall Thats awesome! Yeah that song has been adapted over the years for any popular players whose country of origin has enough syllables to fit! Those heady days in the Prem seem like a million miles away now, although my fave memory of that era is actually beating Chelsea at Stamford Bridge in the League Cup in 2005. Charlton were the only team to beat Mourinho at home. OK it was only on pens.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aZwiweKCE7E

  11. They seem a little confused by the Clach and Palace. Guess they don't know about our Barca links ;-) Pity couldn't have got an away game against a decent Championship team like that lot at Portman Road or the City Ground :-)) To be fair you could do a lot worse then us! Barcelona we aint but we averaged a thousand more then "that lot at Portman Road" last season, and we are in fact the best supported London team in the football league, and that includes (now Premier League) Palace.... You guys have just had a great season, beating Celtic away is something Barcelona couldnt even manage! Ill think itll be a pretty even contest....
  12. Yep we do actually play this before a game, although the official club song is the 'Red, Red Robin' by Billy Cotton, played when both teams emerge from the tunnel just before kick off, been played for many many years. Youll probably also hear our own version of Paul McCartney's 'Mull of Kintyre', adapted as "Valley, Floyd Road". Gets sung by the vocal section of our support in the north upper at every game. So yeah we have a few songs kicking around! Looking forward to hearing some of yours on the 27th July!
  13. Hey ICT fans! Just wanted to be the first Charlton fan to say hi, and Im looking forward to seeing some of you for the friendly fixture on the 27th July, be great to meet up for a beer or two beforehand!
