At least they've put a roof over the terrace so we shouldnt get a repeat of Yeovil. I like Griffin Park. Used to watch the London Broncos there. Great old fashion stadium.

Grand day out.
Think we're in the opposite end to the one you're thinking of. Last season we were in the two tier stand with terracing at pitch level and seats above. Home fans were in the end that used to be uncovered.
Sold out last year and was a good day out. Remember an amusing little side show in the stand over to our right hand side with a group of Brentford fans kicking off with some stewards for a good 5 minutes.
I wonder if we will manage to sell out a single away game this season. embaressingly far away from doing so at orient, and also looks like we won't do it here either despite a small allocation. dagenham seems the only likely one given that its a new ground, unless of course we make the play offs again / any last day of the season shoot out. not surprised obviously as i'm more than used to it, but i don't think i'll every understand why trips like this - to an appealing/ fun / relatively pleasant part of London which was excellent last season and is very easy to get to - do not attract more away supporters. I understand all peoples comments about the costs and family commitments and losing your whole saturday which come with following charlton away - but you could get to the game and back for a total cost of £25 for this one, leave after 1 and be back by 6 to anywhere in south-east london.

Reckon we will sell out Bournemouth and Daggers, I know there is a fair few left for Brentford but if (big if) we get decent results in the next two, more people may be tempted and we could come very close to sell out. Also towards the end of the season, if we are doing well, the last few away games we may sell out.
It's on the river between Kew Bridge and the Waterman's Centre in Brentford. If you get the tube to Gunnersbury, and take the 267 or 237 towards Brentford, it's about 4 stops, and the bus stops practically right outside.
Im kind of jealous now as oriordans was my favourite pub last season but am settling with visiting Heather down at the Rose and Crown - i shall say hi to her from you all and sound out about february.

£20? How much should it be?

We won't be getting wet anyway.
Didn't realise until last year that one of them's the West London Celitc Supporters Club HQ !!
Did we sell out last year ? I was in the seats, no leg room at all so might stand instead this year.
O'riordans is a good place for a drink beforehand. We had a nice drink there last year.
It is up north mate, well north of France anyway
Last season I was paying like £8-£15 odd for tickets, so around that

I doubt you'll get to see many games for £8 mate unless you're going to a game in Poland or somewhere. It's £10-11 just to see Welling!
Where is O'Roirdans B?
Ill send more details.
