I am scratching my head at the photo of the covered end (pre-Selhurst) Can only remember it being terraced, not seated. What year did the seats go in, and why? Was it to come in line with all seater stadiums, and the east stand being closed?

The seats were in for a good few seasons before we left.
Anyone know the game that the crowd scene is from, as it’s look me and the boy are in it, top left the boy is the one with the hand and red and white hat, must have been one of his very first games he went to.

Newcastle away. First game in the Prem in '98.
A great day out. Martin symonds and Peter Varney travelling up on the train with us. Happy days.

Thanks we were certainly at that game, so it must be us.
The match signalled the end of Charlton,s unhappy stay at Selhurst Park- five years and 225 days after the Addicks (final) match at The Valley against Stoke City.

I played on that pitch that week in u11s cray valley schools cup final ((St Philomenas v Castlecombe).
Remember being buzzing as we got the home 'Charlton' dressing room.
I scored 5 and we won 8-3. The linesman was a palace scout and asked my mum if I wanted to go for a trial the following week but we moved to Saudi for a couple of years a few days later and now 30 years later I work in compliance.

33 years 🙈 I got punched in the back of the head by a West Ham fan on the walk back to Norwood Junction as a result of being trappy. Bit out of order thinking back as I was still 14 and he was a proper adult.
Learned a lesson though so perhaps done me a favour

Seems a bit drastic moving to Saudi when a simple fuck off to the scout would have sufficed…

OK, I will decide which ones I'm happy to send your way at this point (you'll get them all sooner or later).
I'll WhatsApp.
