Since the 92/93 season, though I didn't get it until late August/early September when the return to the Valley was announced and I wanted to make sure of a seat! Move to the East Stand at the start of the 94/95 season and been in the same seat now for 21 years...
About to be my 5th unbroken season (although I have probably been a season ticket holder for a total of like 8 seasons at the age of 24). My brother is 15, I introduced him to the club when he was 10, and we have been going ever since, I wish I had been introduced at a similar age, he loves it, Charlton through and through.
First year was 1989 - the summer I went to University. It was thought that it would make it easier to meet up with my Dad at the games. Then the club moved to Upton Parkj and we had 'first come first served' seating!
I thought I was a newbe until I read those of you above. I suspect there will be plenty that will have started before I was born on this list soon enough.
Got football like religion aged 39 and this is my 11th consecutive season. Forty ten in October and have set my target at another 46 seasons (at least).
First game back at The Valley was on my birthday, my husband bought me a season ticket as it was the only way I could get a ticket (just for that year he said). I have had one every year since and just renewed this morning.
Not sure but I am pretty sure I've had one on every stand, including the Jimmy Seed (which was then the South Stand) which was partially a home area when we first came BTTV - I think the season ticket was free with Junior Reds membership or something.
First game in mid 70's with my dad (vs Wolves), started coming to games regularly in 95/96 when I moved to Greenwich after a year in Oz, season ticket from 98 (when you needed one to guarantee a seat, none of this pay on day rubbish!)..had first one in the west stand, then moved to the east the following year when I bought another ticket for my dad too..just renewed both but finding myself attending less as life gets in the way...

Been an Addick since '73 when they were called the Valiants, you didn't need STs then....
There's a few longer on here, I'm sure.
Played to a half decent standard myself and then bought a season ticket 19 years ago when I stopped playing.
Ive had the same seat in the Lower West ever since.
Have bought one for next season.
