Not sure what Mark Robins was doing with the team, but he has aged well (4th left).

I think what was noticeable yesterday was just how organised the Charlton fans were, and how they seemed to have funds at hand to spend on the kind of creative protest we saw at The Valley, gaining a lot of exposure and publicity. If someone has the idea to throw thousands of pork pies onto the...

Saw a lot of the black and white scarves yesterday. That idea was mentioned here a couple of years ago, but never took off. Think the suggestion was that we wear red and green (city's civic colours), although given that a local non-league side have adopted those colours now, not sure how that...

I'll match that £100. Any crowdfunding needs to be under the banner of an organisation though rather than an individual - otherwise that one person becomes a target. I know that individuals are already putting their hands in their pocket paying for banners, t-shirts, flags and perhaps we...

To be fair, I've seen trains stop and load up after city games also. I think the one hour suspension of services is no longer happening, although the offical line is that it is.

Has that come from a wealthy individual or do they have some sort of fund-raising in place?

It's a difficult one because it's not something an individual would put their name to I guess. Not sure if it could be done anonymously. The danger I guess is if there is civil disobedience and any laws are broken it might open up the people who are behind the crowd funding to scrutiny. It's...

Why do you say that? I was on the march before the game yesterday. It isn't a criticism, because it seems to me that the same small group of people have to carry the burden for all of us when organising these things. It is just an observation that protests inside the ground tend to be more...

Our most effective protest was probably the why/when protest at Arsenal. To create awareness and a photo opportunity the protests need to be inside the ground.

I'm not sure this is much of a revelation, a new naming rights deal has been on the cards for a while, it's actually overdue.

Believe the 1100 now sold out. Plenty on the gate though.

I'm not sure if you've misread what I said. I wasn't getting all precious about it, and actually said I wasn't that bothered - and I am sure TF would take it for what it was, because clearly it wasn't meant literally and wouldn't have been taken a such, and it was pretty isolated anyway - to...

More likely something like Fisher to take over Chief Exec role, or an announcement that the club is not for sale. That's if any of this is true of course.

We'll just disagree on that then. Not in a million years did Shrewsbury deserve to win that game. You could argue we didn't deserve to win it either, but they created once chance of note all match and had just one shot on target. I thought they were shite.

The thing about yesterday was that it was quite a departure from the Mowbray philosophy. The way we set up, the way we pressed high up the pitch, it was like watching a different team. It's one game, so we can't be making any predictions based on one good performance. Have to say though, been...

That isn't really true though. Bury perhaps, but no way Shrewsbury, and the other two were pretty even.

There were a group of fans behind me giving it the paedo thing throughout the game. Cringe. I'm all for giving him stick, but some of the stuff is over the top, as is the Joy Seppala is a slag chant. Don't get me wrong, I'm not THAT bothered by it - he's hardly an innocent patsy, but a bit...

I'd say the opposite. Proper old-fashioned ground, good away end with a low roof, plenty of places to drink etc. Home fans a bit flat yesterday, but so were their team. The fact Burslem is a shithole adds to the charm of the place. Rather Vale Park than many of the new edge of town...

You know it's bad when hackneyfox feels the need to crawl out from under his rock.
