Luzon ‘delighted’ with Charlton debut
Guy Luzon took charge of Charlton for the first time on Saturday, and said he was “delighted” with the performance as they drew 0-0 at Wolves.
Able to take his place in the dug-out after seeing his work permit come through earlier in the week, he said: “I think that when we arrived we knew that Wolves were in fantastic momentum after four wins in a row and we know that to stop that momentum and start a positive momentum for us we had to be well organised.
“We need to be close and encourage one another and I think we did well because Wolves have a lot of quality and talent in their attack and they have scored a lot of goals.
“But we were organised well and in the second half we created some chances to take all three points – but we are satisfied and delighted for our performance.”
And just as happy to keep a clean sheet, he said: “We have kept a clean sheet only six times in 26 matches and it was very important for my first game to keep a clean sheet, and from here we need to improve. I am not defensive minded but if you want to collect points first you need to get a clean sheet.
“This is the first step and the second step is to continue and get more options to score in attack.”

Engaging
Being a community platform means so much more than producing a newspaper and website. One of our proudest roles is media partnering with our invaluable charities to amplify the outstanding work they do to help us all.
Celebrating
There’s no shortage of oys in the world but Jewish News takes every opportunity to celebrate the joys too, through projects like Night of Heroes, 40 Under 40 and other compelling countdowns that make the community kvell with pride.
Pioneering
In the first collaboration between media outlets from different faiths, Jewish News worked with British Muslim TV and Church Times to produce a list of young activists leading the way on interfaith understanding.
Campaigning
Royal Mail issued a stamp honouring Holocaust hero Sir Nicholas Winton after a Jewish News campaign attracted more than 100,000 backers. Jewish Newsalso produces special editions of the paper highlighting pressing issues including mental health and Holocaust remembrance.
Easy access
In an age when news is readily accessible, Jewish News provides high-quality content free online and offline, removing any financial barriers to connecting people.
Voice of our community to wider society
The Jewish News team regularly appears on TV, radio and on the pages of the national press to comment on stories about the Jewish community. Easy access to the paper on the streets of London also means Jewish News provides an invaluable window into the community for the country at large.
We hope you agree all this is worth preserving.
