    As football secretary at Witton Albion FC I would like to inform any of you who are making the trip to the FA Cup game v Northwich Victoria what we can offer you on the day.

    Our ground is literally only a stones throw from the Vic's, so if any of you are looking to make the journey by car you will be able to park at our ground for just £2.00. If the weather has been fine then a quick trip across the canal footpath will see you at the ground within ten minutes. If not, then add about another ten on top of that for a walk round on the footpath

    We shall be opening our social club early, so for those of you in need of a comfort break, a drink, or something hot to eat, then all will be accessible in the comfort of our clubhouse, while no doubt enjoying the build up to your game on a large screen tv.

    Witton are a semi-pro club who play in the UniBond (Northern Premier) League and who have enjoyed the trappings of a higher level of football (including a FA Trophy appearance at Wembley!), but suffered relegation at the end of last season from the UniBond Premier League.

    The club is run by volunteers so every penny we earn goes back into the game in some shape or form, after of course the players expenses have been met.

    If there are a number of you travelling by coach we are also able to accommodate them.

    I hope that we get the chance to welcome many of you on the day, but if you've any questions then I'll be quite happy to address them through this forum, and good luck with your game.

    Graham Shuttleworth

    As football fan of Northwich Victoria FC, I would like to inform you to crawl back into your Unibond Premier South hole and take your misplaced opportunism with you.

    Charlton wouldn't open their arms to fans visiting Millwall! They would have more respect!

    This is our day. get over it. You are beneath contempt!

    Quality - would love to be "proper charlton" enough for this one but I fear the sofa, ITV, cans and food beckon.

    Great to see non-league clubs bickering for our beer money. Give it 2 years and we could be doing the same !

    The thing is, we are in administration, have the tax man refusing two offers of a cva and we need to buy our ground back from the administrators of the ex-owner of the club's company. He split the club from the ground's ownership, nearly bankrupted us and then tried to evict us from what used to be our own property. We need every penny we can get and that other pile of sh1te from down the road try to muscle in.

    The money from this tie could actually save our club from extinction. Your beer money indeed - we need it badly.

    Would you merge with Crystal Palace? ..... Thought not. Now please do us a favour Addicks fans who are coming up stick with your hosts for the day. We'll sort out the parking, there will be plenty of opportunities for a drink with us. If we were visiting your gaff and and we went drinking in your local rivals boozers, you'd have the right hump. As Tricker says, we've been through the mill financially, much like yourselves, perhaps you could think twice, before RSVPing the Swampmonsters cheeky invite? ..... Come on, you know it makes sense.

    don't panic Charles, just a bit of banter! We'll be lining the Northwich pockets...

    You'd think fans of a club which fought so hard to get back to The Valley would not even give a second thought to the fanciful notion of being "entertained" by our neighbours. We should know - we had to spend a few seasons in exile at their place while our ground was built. :(
    This is not just local rivalry, this is pure ingrained local abhorrence - and the feeling is mutual: they're not offering to do you a favour but to do us harm.

    I quite like the sound of the Witton offer, very generous of them to do this. Can't understand the northwich antagonism over this, sounds like they are trying to help you out!

    I'm still waiting for Vic's counter offer. Failing that I will take my custom to Witton, if I was going to the game, which I am not.

    Absolute quality!

    Still, you shouldn't pick on lower division supporters, poor show mate. Atleast he's given us a good offer, I'm not hearing anything from Northwich, perhaps we should give Witton a try...

    Merge with Crystal Palace? What a brilliant idea! If we got Millwall involved as well, we could form South London United and get back to The Premiership very quickly.

    Which is where I started supporting Charlton, rather than my old Club, Gillingham.

    No but that bloke from Witton Albion whispered me and said they were considering a hogroast or BBQ, weather dependent obviously...

    Did he also mention putting a big screen on the Witton pitch and charging only a fiver so we wouldn't even have to go to Northwich ??

    This could work out well actually.

    Our alpha male thugs can stand up in the Witton car park

    Our elderly disabled can sit down in the Northwich car park
