Ramsgate-based fan Rick Everitt has had many roles in relation to Charlton including sports editor of he late lamented Mercury, club employee and editor of the Voice of the Valley fanzine.

He makes the point that this is not an exceptional side and hence their achievement in getting to Wembley is even the greater.

My new wife managed to buy a Charlton place mat for me yesterday in Leamington after sorting through Manchester City and Crystal Palace merchandise. I take it as a good omen.
