Charlton Athletic and the media, Madrid daily life and the quiz team.
Sunday, November 14, 2004 Back to Back Jonatan Johansson makes it 1-0 against Norwich Charlton 4 Norwich 0 Two results to celebrate in a row, or back to back as it is called nowadays, and a degree of consistency, moreover, in the gratifyingly surprising form of Jerome Thomas, who was purchased almost as an afterthought with a small amount of the money Charlton got for the sale of young Spotty last year. Who knows? Maybe Jerome will turn out to be the more valuable of the two. It certainly looks as though he is going to keep his place in the team, so that's all right. Good news from the Valley then, although a sense of perspective needs to be maintained. Norwich are the bottom club in the table; and Spurs last week were in a spot of bother, and Charlton often win there, anyway. However the return to form will boost confidence, and there might be at least a point in it at Old Trafford next weekend. posted by Jonathan Blake @ 20:42 0 comments 0 Comments: Post a Comment << Home Reference Links Frankie Valley All Quiet in the East Stand (Inspector Sands) Addicks Championship Diary (Wyn Grant) New York Addick Livescore Charlton Athletic FC Latest Posts Providence takes the evening off Frabjous Day Curbs In Sneezing in Morse Still Stranded Stranded on an Icelandic beach A Week is a Long Time in...

The production and layout were all done by non-English speakers, and that meant that all the writing had to be done by me. My own name appeared as editor and also over what I regarded as the best piece of the month. "Jonathan Blake" (the first name and surname of two acquaintances from university) was the name I made up (I thought then, and still do, that it has a nice ring to it) for second-best pieces and general features. It's nice to be able to resurrect Jonathan after all this time to help me out with the writing.... View my complete profile
