    Sadly its come a week to early for me, don't get paid till next week so no welling for me, honestly can't say I'm that botherd have gone nearly every year for 15 years and can hardly recall 2 or 3 good wins for us either bore draws like last year or we lose. Shame there is no home friendly, they could easily have put a clause in shelvey or baileys deals for a home friendly with the away team covering costs.

    Got my ticket.....
    Looking forward to it, in the past there has been too many changes to the team and that has made the occassion a bit of a frustration for the fans.

    A couple of local lads playing in the Welling team, so be good to see them against Charlton, and I think they will be up for it.

    Hope our lot seem more positive than the reports of the Wimbeldon match on Saturday, not worried about the result, but be good to see some decent performances.

    Tommy Whitnell, Kane Rice, Jack Parkinson played for Welling against Herne Bay,( a few days ago) My lads used to play with these guys when they were 15/16. Whitnell is ex Millwall academy, Kane Rice was an Irish International schoolboy, and Jack Parkinson was an excellent player at Cray Valley youth. Be interested to see how they play against our youngsters/fitness etc....

    I'll be there. Never sure if this fixture is the start of the new season or the beginning of the end of the summer.

    I'm going to be there, is it necessary to get tickets beforehand?

    Also anyone Knowledgeable on what the parking situation is like at the ground itself, or the surrounding roads?

    I've only gone the last two years, but both times parked in one of the roads not to far from the ground, and got tickets on the day.

    Might be different if you want a seat, but if you are happy standing tickets shouldn't be a problem.

    Alway's parked a litle away from the ground as 2 men and a dog bring Welling to a standstill at the best of times!..... at least in traffic flow management terms, so best to leave the car a little away from the ground, on the direction you want to return, probably quicker anyway!

    How many years until this fixture is a money spinner for us and Welling are above us in the leagues ?

    Welling said (last Thursday) that there was no prob. getting standing tickets on the day, it was only the seated tickets that were in short supply.

    I was going to go but it gets more of a pain in the arse to get parked up each year so I don't think I'm going to bother now.

    That and I haven't got any money so nerrr

    Parking tip, park anywhere Northdown Road side (nr Kenmere Rd / Hazeldene Rd) and there's an underpass under the Railway line...less than 5 mins to the ground down Clifton Rd

    All street parking but no residents parking scheme

    reckon it will be the lowest crowd in living memory for this fixture. Apathy prevails at the moment.
