Interestingly enough my other half, who is ambulance crew, got a call last week to The Valley for someone who had been injured on the pitch. Guessing it was a corporate hire. She got bitten by a badass mosquito and has been on some fairly heavy antihistamines to combat the swelling and itching. Hopefully the new pitch will be considerably less of a swamp than that one was!!1

Seats need repainting/replacing - looks awful in that video.
750 lorries over 1 week? Over 100 a day? I bet the locals really do love it at the moment.0 -
The silly thing with the seat fading, is that it's the newer seats (from around 1997 onwards) that have faded badly, the original seats from 1992 still look nice and red!Yann897 said:
They're replacing the faded seats over a 3 year process. Quite long but atleast it's getting done.LuckyReds said:Seats need repainting/replacing - looks awful in that video.

if the local residents were contributing to the Charlton Life Confessional Thread it would go something like.
"Now the seasons over, we'll get a few months of peace and quiet!"

Yeah can confirm work has started. Missus was there at a work function and she texted me pictures of diggers on pitch.0

Thanks for that. I thought the above video was all done on a green screen.12
