This is a photo I took when Steve Bridge had
an open day about charlton in Hall Place Bexley. Must have been early 1990s.
Think this was a poster behind some of his photos.Steve Bridge was one of the photographers at Charlton and is on Charltonlife12 -
This is The Valley pre covered end .Should know the year of this photo.
Think it is one of the Cup ties in the 1920s0 -

I just cames across these "stills" from a film called "The Silent Playground" 1963.
Apologies if they have been on here before.

Not an old photo, taken last Saturday. I grew up on the east terrace in the 1970s and love all the old pictures. I can’t see any trace of the old terracing above the concourse behind the AC stand but wonder what the purpose of the door in the picture is. It seems to access the void beneath the stand and it doesn’t look like it’s in regular use. Does anyone know what the door is for and whether any of the original terrace exists under the new stand?

The steal supports under the stand will require regular inspection. Lack of inspections led to the issues at Birmingham not being discovered until too late and the mass closure of relatively new stands.5

That's where they lock all the players they cannot Charltonise. You know, the 30 goal a season forwards, lightning left wing backs and mid field generals...Ashers said:Not an old photo, taken last Saturday.

Great stuff Stockport - thanks for sharing. Some of the standing on the upper (unbuilt) part of the East side wouldn't pass modern day H&S!stockportaddick said:

That footage of the east makes Norwich's 'nest' of the same era look positively tame lol.SporadicAddick said:

We are loving life in Portugal but all this cheap wine is doing my liver no favours!
Hope all is well with you.1 -
Looks like The Sweeney have finally nicked Trigger to question him about the missing broom handles.Six-a-bag-of-nuts said:I just cames across these "stills" from a film called "The Silent Playground" 1963.

Colin Cameron wrote in his book that the prices during 1960-1962 season until the end of 1963-1964 season were 3 bob and 7/6p .
4 FOUR seasons without a price rise.Second photo is 1970-1971 season .0 -

Kevin Campbell on loan from Arsenal scored their winner didn’t he?clb74 said:Leave off.
32 years ago and people can remember what stands other fans were given.
I mean there are a couple of things I can remember like the little bit of fog we had against Leicester in the zds, but I should think everyone there that night remember s that.0 -
Amazing! The ref running round in his jacket! Looks like we were kicking the wrong way - Bolton must have won the toss. Or maybe that only changed once we got the Covered End?TEL said:
