    Plenty here in sunny Plumstead. Both my local pubs have plenty of Charlton in them.

  • Switching the question slightly.

    What is the largest number of Addicks living  under one roof?

    Correct answer for Millwall would be Belmarsh, obviously.

    Geolocating tweets is an interesting way of locating concentrations.

  • Plenty of us in Maidstone
    Plenty of Millwall fans there too... ;)
    Only know a few true Millwall fans and been in Maidstone all my life. Even back before the prem years there was a very healthy contingent of Charlton who actively attended games. It peaked during the prem years with coach loads for most games, but even now my group alone can muster 20 on a good away day.

    Thanks for those maps, i had seen the first one before and was trying to find it. It bothered me because of the apparent large number of Hammers south of the river in Dartford and beyond, it wa an issu for the Olympic Stadium and all the upgraded transit links to help them get there at taxpayers expense. 

    But as far as I recall the authors didn't claim it to be backed by concrete data, more conversations with supporter groups.

    For sure when he worked for the club, Airman carefully harvested the data from season ticket data at least, which is why I hope he will be along to share his thoughts.

    What I found quite telling was one of the Valley Gold draws might have been the Stoke game where we had more winners than usual with extra special prizes on offer, pretty sure it listed the names and locations of the winners on the big screen.

    I believe of the 10 Valley Gold special prize winners 9 of them had Kent as there location, quite telling if 90% of our support are from Kent (including Welling, Bexleyheath etc)

    Dont think I've ever seen a millwall shirt there though

    Randomly, there's a few of us knocking about in SW17. Saw a dad at the tube station the other day with kids wearing Charlton rucksacks.

    Grandparents lived in SE7, conceived in SE7 on New Year's Day - parents were celebrating a 2-1 win at Bolton (that's my story anyway), raised in Charlton, lived in Charlton for 20-odd years, now in TN just inside Kent.

    At a guess, Woolwich, Plumstead, Bexley, Bexleyheath, Sidcup, Dartford, Kent based locations.  Always felt a bit outside of our core area of support being born and bred Brockley.  Closer to Millwall.  Always felt places like Bromley have a lot of Millwall fans

    Deepest Cornwall ..... there's me, WheresMeTicket and Charente Addick from Charlton Life.

    And over the border in nearby England, clb74 is desperately wanting to buy a 3 bed semi in Plymouth for £100k.

    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.
    It's an interesting map, but it's definitely nonsense. I remember reading the methodology behind it and it is basically guesswork.

    @PragueAddick

    nothing overly meaningful but I took a snapshot earlier of the first 3,000 visitors to CL today.

    Sunday is always the least visited day of a week, but should give a better concentration of people being at home / local area as opposed to skewed by work.
