Vaguely thinking of going to Waterlooville v Dartford on saturday. Bit of a trek as I'm in Whitstable but I don't get to see the Darts often, and having seen the Addicks on saturday, Dartford are next on the list.
There is a FA Cup Replay tomorrow night at Oakwood, the home ground of VCD, between Erith Town and Rochester United, after a 1-1 draw on Saturday.
As some of you are aware, one of our own lifers, @falconwood_1, took over Erith Town FC during the summer. Any support from fellow Charlton Lifers tomorrow night would I know be much appreciated, so if you can get to the ground for the 7-45pm kick-off, you will be very welcome. It could go to extra time and penalties, so any Covered End type vocal support could give Erith Town that vital edge.
The standard FA Cup entrance fee at this stage is £8 for adults and £4 for concessions. If you can't get there, you can follow the tie on the Erith Town FC twitter account. The winners play Whyteleafe FC of the Bostik South League in the next round on Saturday week.

I was charged £6 and included an impressively produced programme last Saturday. That was an extra preliminary as well.
Chelmsford won against Welling to be 100% after two games... Charlton win, Essex win, England win in the cricket... Times like this don't happen often!
I'm going to Saltdean(Sussex League) this Saturday.
Has anybody been as the surrounding area looks a bit sparse in the way of shops and pubs.
@ElfsborgAddick - agreed, there's nothing really at Saltdean. I think your best bet would be to go into Rottingdean, which is 1.5 miles and a pleasant half an hours walk from the ground. It's a very nice 'village', with a 16th century church, Rudyard Kipling's former house and gardens on the Green and three or four pubs. The Black Horse on the High Strret used to be the best one, although I haven't been in there for a few years. The Victoria, also on the High Street does food and is ok, if a little gloomy inside, while the pub by the pond has a nice setting.

Excellent.
We're on the bus from Brighton and it passes through Rottingdean, a great shout so I can watch the live game on tele beforehand.
Maidstone were slightly on top 1st half & could've gone in 1 up at half time but for a brilliant save from Nathan Ashmore. Fleet were much better 2nd half & ran out comfortable 2-0 winners in the end.
On that performance, fleet will be fine this season. Mid table at worst I think
Vaguely thinking of going to Waterlooville v Dartford on saturday. Bit of a trek as I'm in Whitstable but I did the Addicks last saturday and I haven't seen the Darts for a long time. Really not sure how much driving I want to do though - I'm driving back to Barcelona on wednesday :-(

All the best, horrible team with a horrible gaffer but lovely little ground, nothing around it apart from saltdean Lido, nice bar there though now.
This time my son comes up trumps.

or £18 for concessions.
£3 for a prog and £2.80 for a pasty
At a non league match ?
Footy is in a mess.
I was more than happy with being charged £6(inc programme) at Welwyn Garden City last Saturday.
The guys in that squad who've played at the top level must be cringing.
Good game though. Very physical.
