We’re very sad to report that our Charlton Athletic match reporter, Kevin Nolan, has died at the age of 87. Kevin spent much of his career as a youth worker, and came to writing later in life. He was best known for writing in the SE London Mercury, which in its day was the leading […]

Kevin Nolan’s Valley View: Charlton Athletic 2-2 Wrexham
Plenty of people at The Valley on Saturday may have been there to see if Wrexham’s owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney were in the directors’ box.

Kevin Nolan’s Valley View: Charlton Athletic 1-1 Stockport County
Stockport County were Saturday’s visitors at The Valley, but they didn’t endear themselves to our match reporter KEVIN NOLAN.

Kevin Nolan’s Valley View: Charlton Athletic 1-2 Blackpool
A poor Charlton performance led to the Addicks conceding two goals in the first half, before a farcical second half. KEVIN NOLAN is still fuming. Blackpool were the better of two moderate sides and did enough to win this game which disintegrated during a stop-start second half. In the interests of fairness and accuracy, that […]

Local residents object to family ‘fan zone’ at Charlton Athletic’s Valley
Nearly eighty local residents and a Labour councillor have objected to Charlton Athletic’s plans to host a “fan zone” outside The Valley. The club has erected a small three-a-side football pitch by the stadium’s West Stand, and has applied for a licence to serve alcohol, show films on a screen and play music. While the […]

Kevin Nolan’s Valley View: Charlton Athletic 1-1 Rotherham United
Charlton fans endured a dour draw at The Valley on Saturday – but our match reporter KEVIN NOLAN found plenty of reasons to be cheerful. This earnest but largely undistinguished game was lifted out of the commonplace by two majestic strikes of comparable quality. And if Chuks Aneke’s 72nd-minute equaliser was upstaged by the sheer […]
