I think it's worth putting out a strong squad. It's not as if we have to travel from Tomorrow's game to Sunday's.



lol the level you play is I guess much slower then the EPL I guess. The step up for you would be greatly increse

Suso. Played at Charlton at a young level until I snap my crucial ligament then after two years played for maiden vale (which was a league below the 3rd division which it is now. Played in FA cups and travel from Portsmouth upto Newcastle (been very lucky getting paid for something I love). The one thing I know that drain me was the long trips back home after a hard game then getting back onto the training ground to give you all.
what age did you leave chalton? around what year? and be honest with your self do you think you would of made it with the chalton main team and if so how far you reckon

(am just a very curious person)


I was 16 and to be honest I think I would of been a pro footballer but life takes different twists.

I moved to charlton after being at Millwall (they only signed 4 youth payers at the time. Two being Kennedy (came to liverpool) and Ben Thatcher). A lot of young footballers in that era only got contractors because they were bigger then other players so im happy now that the youth system has now changed and talent is coming through even if they are smaller
