VOTV editor Rick Everitt is a happy man again after Charlton's Boxing Day performance. Lyle Taylor may have given a valedictory wave, but he was upstaged by Macauley Bonne. He may well have benefitted from the return of Taylor, but no one could question his work rate and his instinct for goal, suggests Everitt.

One would not wish to suggest that as experienced an observer of Charlton as Rick Everitt has a mild case of goldfish syndrome (basing everything on the last game). When there is success after a long barren spell, it is time to celebrate.
A more intriguing issue is whether the Ramsgate-based fan is finding his inner Napoleon again. We're not suggesting for a moment that he is spending time on the West Cliffe hoping the weather will clear so that he can see the cliffs of France. Nor is there any suggestion that when he entered the Royal Victoria Wetherspoons for his celebration pint, he was holding his left arm in an unusual position. It's all more subtle than that.
BTW, the flag of Abu Dhabi is quite appropriate for Charlton as it is mostly Addicks red but with a white rectangle in the top left-hand corner.
