Anyone have any recommendations for pubs near the ground? Are any home fans only?

Few were mentioned in the thread in the ticket forum

Drink in Greenwich 7 minutes on the train to charlton hundreds of blades will be there .

A win would be the best result for us here

 

[jono_t2000]

When was the last time Charlton did the double over us?

 

[Pintor75]

This is definitely a game we should be looking to win, they have 4pts from 15 at home and surely can't do the double over us , 2 up front and go for it Wilder

 

[3Cheers4Ramirez]

After the way they won it at BL, Wilder and the players will want to make amends. We won't let them double us, I'm quite confident of that

 

[Revolution]

2011-12

 

[232 Bramall Lane]

Can one of the esteemed historians on here help me?
I remember once going to see us play Charlton away but I think it was when they were playing at Palace's ground.
Or was it the other way round?
Think it was the late 70s or 80s.
Been to the Valley since but can't recall the earlier visit clearly

1985-6. We lost 2-0. Charlton’s first season at Selhurst Park. They got promoted.

We also played them in the Cup when they were at Upton Park in 1991-2.

Agree

Want us to score more than they do today

 

[ancientblade]

[espoo blade]

Agree

I think this needs to be our strategy going forward

 

[Aston max]

Morning playmates

Always has to be the aim in my opinion

I remember going to that one. It was a Sunday if I remember rightly, before Sunday games became the norm. I think West Ham might have been home on the Saturday? I was shouting Hughie down the big white telephone before we set off, after a night drinking Owd Roger in Eckington (the beer missus, the beer!). Thankfully, I wasn't driving. All that for a dull 0-0. We beat them at the Lane in the replay, 2-0 I think.

 

[Ecco1889]

Last time I went to the Valley we won 5-2,Gary Speed scored one of them,it’s a great away day

 

[Snowflake]

Ridiculous revolutionary idea.

It was indeed a Sunday. 4th round. Absolutely nothing of interest happened in the game. We won the replay 3-1.

If we stick to this strategy, I think we've cracked this league. Utmb

 

[3Cheers4Ramirez]

We've learned to score 3 goals every game so that suggests we are grasping the concept, which is promising

 

[Cuypers]

Two - Nowt Blades.
Bamford and Peck off the bench.

 

[The Crab]

I think this needs to be our strategy going forward

 

[bibbity bobbity boo]

Peck back on the bench

 

[Iffy Onuora's Shiny Head]

No Jairo

 

[Jimmy Fleck]

That midfield will get dominated unfortunately, 1-0 Charlton I think

 

[Stretch]

All the speculation about Hamer not being in the squad.......they got the wrong Dutchman.

 

[MayorOJC]

Man's allergic to playing Hamer in the middle

 

[Lower Drop Blade]

We will see but yes middle of park looks weak as piss
