Now don't get me wrong - I will happily admit to knowing very little about association football (I'm more of an RFU man), but since I happened to be down in Charlton delivering leaflets earlier this evening (Peninsula's boundaries stretch along the railway down past the flyover beyond Anchor and Hope Lane. Even though it's a different post code and I'm not permitted to park there, apparently I'm still allowed to put myself forward to represent there! The joys of ward boundaries.. but I digress) I had a chance to see the fans making their way to the game.
It's a warming sight, and one that takes me back to the odd occasions when I went to watch Norwich play at Carrow Road (back in the period when we were falling fast out of what was then the Barclays Premiership, we nearly always lost :-( ) - seeing groups of friends and families getting together to share a common cause.
I'm going to end this before I get accused of being oversentimental, but mainly I just wanted to say well done to Charlton on their win. :-)
