There is little we can say about Norman "Headphones Norm" Barker that hasn't already been said. Like every #cafc fan we are shocked and saddened by his passing Norm was thrilled to be given his well deserved Supporter of the Year award by Nathan Jones in the museum this summer RIP to a legend

Speak to anyone who runs a museum and they'll tell you storage space is their biggest problem. Luckily, the Charlton Athletic Museum have volunteers who are handy with a saw and drill who can build us new shelving to house our ever growing archive. #cafc

Letters from our archive. Spurs lent Charlton some turnstile operators for the 1985 FA Cup replay but #cafc weren't happy with the "discrepancies" between the count and the money handed in by those operators. #thfc were having none of it.
