How about meeting in the middle? Charlton goes up to the Championship, and Arsenal gets relegated there as well. That way your club can beat Charlton and you can be happy :)

Absolutely  :lol:

Don't really care how or why people become fans. All that matters in sports is destroying the teams you hate.

Millwall fans are the absolute fucking worst. Whatever you do do not pick Milwall.

This. I hate Palace cos I'm a Charlton fan. I hate Millwall because I'm a human being.

By common consensus I will also support Palace instead of Milwall. Although because Palace have been in the prem for awhile I've seen them play a lot and I actually kind of like them already so I feel that is cheating.

Curious, I seem to recall the flat you almost bought but didn't was also near there.
I suspect you're actually a secret Millwall fan. Why else would anyone claim to support the blue Liverpool team? :p

Which one? 1998 or 2019?

Have to say Sunderland fans were very gracious in defeat both times and Charlton fans have a real soft spot for them as a result.

Yeah that place was basically next door. I'm a little further away now.

But I sort of knew the area I was looking in for a place and that didn't really change too much - although better connected now.

Skinny, brown adolescents weren't that sought after amongst the hollies and Charlton were very minor league in terms of violence any way. Any would be hoolies in my part of London gravitated to Millwall who were amongst the most feared group in England.

I got chased a few times and/or dodged projectiles at Villa, Millwall, Wolves, Leeds but nothing very serious.

Saw a headline that Anne Hathaway had professed herself a Gooner. I was at first "TMI!", but then learned that it refers to her being an Arsenal fan and not to, well: https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=gooning
