Was at last and first back. Only do about half the games now due to travel and family commitments. Go with my 11 yr old boy and occasional away game (forest this year). Will be going to the Amex
I still go but my father died a couple of years before the play-off season...at the back to the valley game I bumped into some old mates I'd lost touch with and hadn't seen for years and assumed they weren't going to sellout park and upton park - I think at least one if them might be dead now according to a rumour I heard a few years ago ( I think they all got banned from the valley anyway)
Went to Selhurst and Upton Park and was one of the 8337. Had a season ticket right up to the Parky years then I started to pick my games. Sadly not been yet this season although will probably get a 5 game voucher for the New Year.
I was there but living in California now it's not easy to get to games. My mate Laurence, who I went with, has been a ST holder all his life and runs the valley express up from Tonbridge so, yeah, he still goes.
One of the 8337 also. Lost a bit of interest during the Premier Years but couldn't make it often due to weekend work committments. Manage about 12 per season, Home & Away. Went to Selhurst regularly in my teens + upton park. Selhurst years were good years, on the pitch anyway. It was great to go back to the Valley though. The interest quickly escalated that season and those of us who were used to 5,000 Home crowds were staggered when 8K+ suddenly turned up for the likes of Tranmere & Notts County.
I was watching from a vantage point having travelled from the isle of wight and could not buy a ticket outside for love nor money .... Still get to half a dozen games a season but its a very long and expensive day out from here ..... Shame there was no CL back them as I'm sure one of you good folks would have been able to help me out.
Was one of the 8337 that day sorry i will miss todays game.Still attend afew games per season but cost of travell and 7 hour journey to The Valley for each game does restrich us now.Once an ADDICK always an ADDICK.
Was there with Dad in the Covered end. Working abroad and living in Somerset means I don't get there as much as I wish I could. However, maybe cos I don't get there as often it is still magical when I do get to go and invariably my eyes 'water' before kick off each time. I know that the same will happen today at 1507.
My brother , dad and I were there, my brother still has a season ticket, dad has died, I tend to go to a few away games each year, was at Millwall last week. Should make the Boxing Day game
I had a season ticket along with my dad,who sadly passed away in 2004.I was there today,and still hold a season ticket as i have done for many years including Selhurst Park and Upton Park.

think most of us still go.

And we aren't the only ones. My mate in the JS that day has had a ST ever since.
Probs missed a max of four home games in the last 20 years.
