Memmory playing up on me I haven't got any books with stats and stuff like that, but I'm sure I've been down there when the crowd was around 30,000, I've seen Charlton at the Goldstone at least 4-5 times so it must have been at a different game, can only remember off the top of my head a 1-1 draw in 77-78ish when it was pissing down all day.
Er, I don't think so - 11,531 and a couple of thousand of those were us....Brighton used to get good crowds at the Goldstone Ground so I'm not surprised they're getting good crowds at the Amex.
Very true....30,000+ when they hammered us 7-0....1983.

Personally I would want away fans to be as grumpy as possible, eating stodgy pies, pissy beer, leaky roof, flooded toilets, all sitting glumly in their seats, not creating an ounce of noise as their team crumble in front of them.Sounds like the AMEX takes the tribalism & rivalry right out of football, which is great for many modern fans nowadays.
Not during the match itself - we're still asked about our boyfriends and our private intimate pleasures by a few meatheads - but certainly before and after.
It's a simple ethos - treat fans like humans and they will behave like humans. It has slightly backfired once or twice, though it's still a basic lesson some football clubs I can think of have yet to learn.
Which to be fair Selhurst Park have almost nailed....0 -

True, but we want your money.

There was a game at The Goldstone Ground against Charlton which attracted a 30,000+ crowd in 1978. It was one of about four in a row which topped 30,000.
We were having our best-ever season at the time, where we ultimately finished fourth in the old Second Division. We would have gone up, but the stitch-up between Southampton and Tottenham on the last day of the season was obscene.0 -
Looking forward to this game...one away game i will be at for sure. Might even make a weekend of it.0

Thanks for clearing that up.Memmory playing up on me I haven't got any books with stats and stuff like that, but I'm sure I've been down there when the crowd was around 30,000, I've seen Charlton at the Goldstone at least 4-5 times so it must have been at a different game, can only remember off the top of my head a 1-1 draw in 77-78ish when it was pissing down all day.

I would have said closer to 12,000
I'm surprised many of you can't make it. Never mind we'll still be taking 15,000 :-)
If was autumn or spring I'd be thinking 15,000 lots of day trippers hangers on if you get where im coming fromI would have said closer to 12,000
You might be right. Certainly if it was a Saturday and in Autumn or Spring, and being our first visit0
