Home, Bolton (Spare) Cov ( given an under 11 ticket at the protest) Spanners (Paid for, just in case a win) Bury (Spare). Was at The Valley for Posh game (UpBeats) left before the game, Swindon game at the protest with @TelMc32, didn't go in. Used to have a season ticket.
Four home games (one x free ticket, 1 x PC Keith Palmer, 2 x protest) and one away game (Oxford). Previous to this season, season ticket holder. Will not renew this season unless ownership changes
3 at home 1 away - lost them all scored one goal - worst turnout for me since I started coming in the 70s saw more matches when I was a student in Manchester in the early 80s
Previously a season ticket holder so most home games a season although in 15/16 missed nearly half the games through apathy at the match day "experience"
All the home games except the silly buggers cup. Bury, MKD league, Gillingham and Southend away. A cluster of U23'S and half a dozen Dulwich Hamlet (two of those away). Otherwise on the Charlton Life match thread.
16 home games 9 away Walsall Fleetwood Oxford Bradford Southend Rochdale Afc Wimbledon Northampton Chesterfield Most games for me in 20 years. Brilliant away days Through CL met a few lifers, just the one I wish I hadn't. I owe 4 20 year olds a beer they had to put up with me on way back from Oxford with me telling them were going up. Saw them at Bradford away and they were coming round to the idea but CARD then put paid to our promotion chances. I wish Elfsborg all the best for next season his not doing home or aways thank f@ck. Hope Rolands gone for all the stay awaysawayd next season.
I went to 16 at home. My lowest since 1985/86. I also missed more home games this season than during the 20 years before, added together.
With my appetite being lower now than it was a year ago I think that, without a season ticket, I will go to even less next season.
The most frightening thing is not the owners (although they are responsible) it's that going has stopped appealing to so many that they might be lost forever. On the games that I don't go to (including those away) I've not even kept in touch with the scores like I used to.
It's amazing just how many opportunities open up on a Saturday afternoon when I'm not at The Valley or in front of a TV watching the scores come in. I'm fighting it, but I'm not sure that I want to give doing the other things and become obsessed with Charlton again, to be honest.
Let's all see what he thinks is a good, committed season......
I also found out about another fan called Clive the other day. Clive has missed one game in 35 years. When you hear of examples like that, plus Seb and Olly, this pathetic uncle of mine is an embarrassment
Kept to my decision to boycott until 1) Keith Palmer 'memorial' and 2) last home game in order to protest and sat with fellow WAR ladies in West Stand.
2 - both away First time I have not set foot into The Valley for a home game since I started going 75/76 season Lowest ever amount of games attended Saw us lose twice and 2 of our worst performances - Swindon (a) and Northampton (a) Usual amount of games I fly back for - min 5 max 15

The pit of despair was arriving back at Charlton after Oldham away trying to get an uber at 3.10am Wednesday 15th Feb. That's real loser territory
But the best game I saw all season was our youth team beating Coventry 7-2 at The Valley
AFC Wimbledon (paid)
Coventry (freebie)
MK Dons (paid)
One other that I can't even remember the opposition. (Freebie).
Away
Fleetwood
Shrewsbury
So 6 in total.
The previous 23 seasons I missed 5 home league games.
A massive fall from the usual 25 ish. The Camden Pub has announced a profit surge.
21 home games (missed one because of holiday & one due to illness), 5 away plus FA Cup (2 ?) League Cup (1 ?) plus 1 Checkatrade.
and I'm a bit surprised / shocked at how easy it's been.
Thought I'd miss it a lot more than I did.... Thanks Roland.
I just hope I can get the enthusiasm back when he does sell
28 Hendon games.
1 Dulwich Hamlet.
2 SV Hamburg.
1 FC Altona.
nothing away
First time I have not set foot into The Valley for a home game since I started going 75/76 season
Lowest ever amount of games attended
Saw us lose twice and 2 of our worst performances - Swindon (a) and Northampton (a)
Usual amount of games I fly back for - min 5 max 15
It really hurts not being there though.
