    Will we ever do these again?

    A relic from the away fans ban at Luton.

  • Ben, would the museum want this clipping from The Sun?


  • Yes, please Russ.

    Drop it off with those other worthless pieces you stole from the Valley 😝
  • I'll post it tomorrow mate, you still at the same address?
  • Thanks

    It's the same address"
  • Lots of old programmes, a few we didn't have from @Fumbluff and some new shirts including this shirt, matchworn by Stuart Balmer.imageimage
    Was having a look through some of the shirts the museum has and this one stood out. The design was from 96-98 when Nationwide were the league sponsors yet this has Endsleigh badges. Also the numbers worn in the first team were black so don't think this would've been worn by Balmer. Could be from the Colts/Youths as they were still wearing Endsleigh badges at that time. 
  • I've got a couple of questions.

    Luton Ticket: Was that really the price for one game? Given that it was 33 years ago (almost to the day) £9 seems well expensive for a single match. I can't remember, was that the going rate back then or was it inflated for some season?

    Chaos as Valley row boils over: Was there actually a row? I realise that 'Meeting Oversubscribed' doesn't make the most exciting headline, but the banner doesnlt really match what's written underneath.

    It got very heated at the meeting and seem to remember Lawrence trying to calm the crowd down. 

    This was the night I ‘liberated’ one of the swords on the old gate. We got into the ground after the meeting and a couple of my mates climbed the floodlight in the South/West corner. I wimped out about halfway up.

    Correct. These are the large Endsleigh patches.  Worn for the last time in 95/96 season.

    For further confirmation perhaps pictures from programmes during this period may help.

    Yeah I did have a look at a few as I was sure I'd seen the youths still wearing Endsleigh before. Though only saw the home shirt but stands to reason it'd be the same for the away.

    Stig, £9 would have been expensive in 1987 but Luton's prices were dear during the away fans ban. As a comparison with us, my first Charlton game was our 3 0 win over Chelsea at Selhurst in 1989 and I recall my dear old Grandpa wincing when told it was £9 a ticket in the Arthur Waite stand with no concessions. I subsequently became a Junior Red and was then paying 2 quid a ticket for a seat in the opposite stand.

    A plastic entrance ticket, revolutionary at the time but common place now.


    Just wondering if I have my old LUFC membership info. You would see loads of Charlton faces at 100 % home supporters only at Kenilworth Road back during the ban days.
    I recall bumping into Airman at halftime at one match. We were loosing of course.

    I remember going there during the ban many years ago, and we had arranged via others to meet a local CAFC fan who was handing out membership cards in a town centre pub (the brewery tap rings a bell), the season and the guys name escapes me now, wonder if he posts on here

    I got thrown out when we played them in 89/90, and to make matters worse plod kept me in the station until the bloody game finished.

    I remeber the pub calling people up to the food counter to collect their meals using the pubs PA system. The place erupted in laughter when "Mr Flashman" was called to the counter.  🤣

    I've told this before, but in the 70s I had my cappers taken off me as I entered the ground. Watched the whole match on open terracing as frequent snow flurries fell. 

    On collecting my boots at the end, I discover that one fella had his new Cherry Reds missing and a skanky pair of cappers being the only boots left. 

    The good old days.
