Description
"The Rise and Rise of Charlton Athletic" tells the tale of a decade many believed Charlton weren't going to see. Having "nicked" a late equaliser and scraped a draw with the official receiver, the "Addicks" spent most of the late 1980's reeling from a string of financial body blows. The club clawed its way back from the edge of the precipice, to a position of safety and prosperity. As dozens of other clubs face the prospect of going out of business, in a small corner of South East London stands a club who act as a blueprint for how to bounce back from defeats off as well as on the pitch.
