Loved the description of Charlton:-

There was always something depressing about going to Charlton. A London club that seemed to be a long way from London.

Always think it must have been a tough year for Villa fans, with those League and Cup winners.

Would say that Huddersfield's glory years were the 20s, not 30s though.

Like the little details, like the band at Arsenal and adverts for M&B.
