Greetings, fellow football enthusiasts! It’s that time of year once again when we gather to pay our respects to our dear Charlton and Peterborough supporters who have departed. So make sure to mark January 13th on your calendar because we’ve got an emotional and heartwarming day planned at The Valley.

Before the Addicks take on Peterborough United, we’ll be hosting our annual memorial match. It’s an opportunity for us to honor those we’ve lost over the past year. So get ready to experience all the feels as we pay tribute to our fellow supporters with a moment of applause.

If you want to include the names of your loved ones, friends, or even colleagues in the memorial, feel free to reach out to us. You’ve got until January 8th to shoot us an email at [email protected] or give us a call at 020 8333 4000. Let’s make sure to recognize and remember every special name during the tribute.

And here’s the kicker – not only will the list of names appear in the Valley Review, but they’ll also be showcased on the big screen during the match. It’s our way of showing the world that these individuals will always have a special place in our hearts.

But wait, there’s more. All the names that have appeared in the “Deaths” section of the matchday program’s personals page since the last memorial will automatically be added to the list. Plus, we’re including the names of fans whose ashes have been scattered in The Valley’s Memorial Garden in 2023. It’s our little way of making sure every individual is recognized and remembered for their love of the beautiful game.

So gear up, football fans! Get those tissues ready, because we’re about to come together for a day filled with love, remembrance, and of course, some good ol’ football fun. Let’s make this year’s memorial match a celebration of life, love, and the beautiful game we all adore.
