Panda Posted May 31, 2023 Share Posted May 31, 2023 Playing Charlton down in London on 29 July. Don't usually bother with pre-season friendlies, but that one could be interesting. Also going to Portugal for a week long training camp (Aberdeen are, not me). "More friendlies to be announced" - I imagine once the League Cup draw is made we can pick up teams who have a free date.

The only time I went there was to see them play Bury in the early 70s - the ground was absolutely massive, you could pick your row, never mind your seat. It's a bit smaller nowadays.

Elgindon Posted May 31, 2023 Share Posted May 31, 2023 Quite enjoy visiting some of these wee grounds pre season,and the relaxed atmosphere.Might be more worthwhile this time with the expected player overhaul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kowalski Posted May 31, 2023 Share Posted May 31, 2023 I visited The Valley a couple of times during Charlton’s “glory years” under Alan Curbishley. It’s a decent ground and should be a good visit for anyone going. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tom_widdows Posted June 20, 2023 Share Posted June 20, 2023 (edited) I used 'yourparkingspace.co.uk' when I went to see Preston vs Wigan. Probably not an issue for a pre season friendly but for £6 I got to park on someones drive, 10mins walk from the stadium for the entire afternoon. There were also various carparks taking cash in hand payments but people were stuck in the jam at the end of the game whereas my space was clear of all that Edited June 20, 2023 by tom_widdows Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
