Had bit chew on walking up the tube steps. I was on my own and a few stated singing the crying on Netflix shite. So I sparked them all out (not really), I just said why sing that when you have just won and one lad got a bit edgy so I stood my ground and he backed off. Other than that the Charlton fans were spot on, esp the one I was talking to in the pub in st Pancras station, he bought me a pint.

Best bar in England that. Love it.
 

Found them to be spot on and just like 1998 I find it hard to bear a grudge really even though theve just kicked us in the bollox. They will be straight back down mind
 
2 lasses were scrapping after the match, and just as a few of us split them up some cockwomble in a blue polo shirt (looked about 50 year old as well) started dancing up shouting about ‘we’re Charlton Afletic’. One of his own fans told him to grow up.

Their fans were spot on other than him.

Hard luck guys. I thought both teams froze a bit today and the only genuine bit of genuine quality was our leveller. At the end, it is just a lottery and every time a ball is lobbed in the box, you buy a ticket. I can't say either team really deserved it - but it fell our way. I'm sure you will be stronger next season and maybe building a stronger side won't hurt you in the long run. All the best anyway!

In 98 i was well pìssed off because we finished 3rd but lost out.
But i knew we would win it the following year so was sort of glad, especially when we did go up as champions :)

This time i am gutted obviously but feel you deserve it since you finished 3rd,

I was convinced we would win promotion by whatever means this season but it wasn't to be,
Hopefully next season,

It has been fine lines, who knows, not losing Maja or signing Lyle Taylor instead of you's :)

Oh well, good luck next season,
You finished the third best team in the league and you beat us on the day so deserve it ;)
 
Had to walk right around the Hylton as some nugget had left an unattended bag, walking through the arcade with Charlton fans, had some good banter with them, best wishes and handshakes all round. Came across as jolly good chaps.

There were a few of them got corralled up Wembley Way by the police to avoid any bother as a couple of them were looking to start something.
Fair play to the cops for spotting it early and nipping it in the bud.

Was he topless and skinny as a stick? If so he was a tw@t singing at my ten year old. Was obviously trying to get a reaction but we just smiled at him. Wouldn't be surprised if he got a clobbering at some point though!
Other than him I thought they were class and a credit to their club.

Light beige coloured t-shirt. About 25-30 year old. Rest were spot on like. Just thought it was bizarre to single out a 5 year old, and his patter was toe curling.
 
They were very sound and I had a good chat with a couple of the on the train on the way up from Kent. I had to butt in to their conversation and put them right when they were chatting together and one said our team was full of Premier league players. :lol::lol:.

They were very nice lads as I said but if I could make just one tiny criticism ... and that's lads your have to get rid of that feckin drum. It brought memories back to me of the times back in the day when Doxies would run one of their ship's engines day and night on a test-bed .The thumpa thumpa thump could be heard miles away. It drove sane men daft.
 
One of them (grown bloke) started on my 15 year old brother for singing sunderland songs. Got arrested straight away and Charlton fans were defending me brother.

Other than that nee bother.
 
Seemed sound. After the game, one tiny fella with little man's syndrome went for one of our lads in a replica shirt who retaliated and the little fella backed off before being told to fuck off by a couple of his own fans. Apart from that, I saw no bother at all.

I think the Met has policed our recent visits brilliantly, both on the Saturday nights and before and after the games.

They tend to keep a low profile and give a fair bit of leeway to the over excitable types, but are there in a flash when their intervention is required.

Very friendly and extremely helpful too in my experience.

Perhaps Northumbria's finest could job shadow them for a while, and learn how to police events in a similar manner, but I very much doubt this would ever happen.

Sorry guys , are you sure you haven't done something wrong in a previous life for all the grief you have suffered the last few years. Like 98 you will walk it next season. All clubs have a few dicks who let their club down , fortunately for us and you they are a tiny minority. It was probably the easiest game for the MET to deal with in years with only a few minor incidents
