Born and raised in Greenwich/Charlton now SE9. In the 60's and 70's people aspired to move out of Charlton now the trend has been reversed with the Addicks being promoted to the Championship.
Not sure of the veracity of this old map, but I'd wager Bexley being the borough with the greatest concentration. Season ticket mailing list would be the best indication of course, skewed against local walk ups.
Didn't he go to Eltham Green? Could have sworn that. Or is it a whoosh?
No he Definitely didn’t go to Eltham Green - I did And he would have been in the year above him.
Where the hell did I get that from, then? Not that anyone can probably answer that, but it's something I've been carrying around in my head since he was with us.
You've spent far too much time with @Riviera in the Long Pond, a man who thinks Charlton is in East London!

Which begs the question where is he nowadays.......not been seen on here for a while?
After the play off final we went for a drink in the Spoons at St Pancras, obviously as this is close to Kings Cross there were quite a few Sunderland in there but I was quite surprised how many Charlton were in there all heading out to Kent on the HS1 I'd guess.
@LenGlover Kent's a big place, mate. I want towns, postcodes :-)
It was a semi serious response actually. I am Exhibit A. SE18 originally but now classified as ME. I know there are a lot of others who have moved out to Kent so could be CT or TN as well as ME.
Anyway, being flippant again, prior to the expansion of London, Charlton and surrounding areas were Kent so I'm sticking with Kent!
I would have said SE9 as well. Eltham seems to be where the majority of the traffic goes after games. Similarly to you, I'm not sure I've ever met a Charlton fan from Charlton. See a lot of Charlton stickers on cars in SE9 too

Thanks for your fans Scully!!
CT postcode
Aside from Pico, I do know a guy at work (who I saw yesterday sitting in the row behind me) who's from SE7. So there's at least 2 there
