Well, it's my first time as a fan at the Valley since 1985 having worked at every game since we returned from exile (bar 4 friendlies!).

Are there any tips for me? Fill your boots!

    I would start out with very low expectations, and then any remotely positive thing that happens on the pitch is a plus.

    Don't purchase anything in the ground.

    Don't forget your black & white scarf !
  • Stay away! ;)
  • Yes, Don't go.
  • First round in the pub on you BDL
  • Stay away! ;)

    Kidding of course. I hear shouting loudly at a window is one of the main attractions!
  • Stay at home...

    ...if you must go just don't buy anything from in the ground, it's frowned on these days. I would say enjoy the football but I doubt that's possible. I'm sure you'll be fine I can imagine you'd probably have quite a few people coming up to you and asking you questions.

  • There's a new competition - see how many stress balls you can stuff down yer troosers.
  • Don't inflate your beachball before you hide it in your pants. It's uncomfortable and you get strange looks from people.
  • If they've tried to sell you a seat on a lovely comfy sofa pitch side...you've been done pal!! :smiley:
  • Sit in the north upper if you want a fag at half time.
  • Come on Dave, "You know what you gotta do!"
  • On the pitch, On the pitch, On the pitch!
  • Get in a good seat early so you can win the pie cam.

    Bring your ABC so you can get in.

    Go to the Lib

    Ignore the tannoy man, everyone else does.

    Don't sit near @addickted, you know why.

    Make some noise and get behind the boys

  • Let us know how you get on. I hear we are under Belgian ownership, crazy eh? I have heard a whisper that it's not going particularly well... let us know BDL.
  • Stay at home...

    I feel it is important to point out that if you decide not to go to the game you don't actually have to "stay at home". Currently KM is still working on house arrest for disaffected fans. It is not yet binding.
  • Make the most of your new freedom: -
    Heckle the pitchside announcer
    Have fun trying to decipher the grating, burbling drivel coming through the tannoy
    Wonder at the parade of unknown dignatories receiving some indecipherable guff on the pitch.
    Above all enjoy the match day experience; but of course don' t buy a programme, don't buy any merchandise, don't buy any food or drink in the ground and above all don't bother going as you will be supporting the regime.
    Enjoy :wink:

    Wear as much red and white possible, including new home shirt, only buy food and drink in the stadium, buy a matchday programme, clap enthusiastically at everything Charlton do and only sing pro RD and KM songs.

    See how long you last
  • Bring your own cushions - last year's have a little too much wear and tear on them...
  • Find a better club!
  • Boo the pitch announcer
  • Get behind Roger Johnson and MAKE SOME NOISE.

    Don't boo. Just sing "you're just a shit Dave Lockwood" to him.
    Now that is good :smiley:
