Bollocks. Got all excited when I saw where this thread had ended up and was going to post: 'Semedo - wooooah, Semedo - wooooah... he comes from Pangaea... he only hates Gondwanaland...' but Cordoban beat me to it. Curse you and your oddly incongruous knowledge of archaic continental drift.
All a bit hair splitting isn't it? The S in SE7 is good enough isn't it or shall we set up a fans capital diagram split into eighths - that way we would be in ES7 so we would be east london. Millwall are nomads like Arsenal really but i think they both qualify for full squatter / asylum rights now.
My point is that the hysteria that erupts when someone like Gary Lineker describes us V WHU as an East London derby is ridiculous. Geographically, and that doesn't mean the Post Office's convienent little codes, Lineker is correct.

Get over it!
All this argument over South, East London. I prefer Kent, its a lot easier. :-)
Chirpy and Bing are spot on. The centre of London is Charing Cross - that's where all the road distances are measured from. Looking at a map I'd guess the Charlton is about 2km south and 10km east of Charing Cross. Is it East then? Of course it bloody is.
If the Thames were a straight line you could use it as a North/South divide. But it's not. Chelsea north of the Thames but SW London.
As for Cockneys, you can be a Cockney from S London, indeed with the way the City is now there are more residential areas within the sound of Bow bells south of the Thames than to the east. Bow church is in Bow Lane, off Cheapside in the City.

Leroy I am not sure wether to be flattered or insulted by this remark!

What, no appeals?
And how can they claim to be WEST Ham, when Ham is a lovely village in Kent. Or Wiltshire. Or something
Hair splitting! On this forum? How dare you?!
Sir, choose your weapon.
