It really feels like a family member has died, I’ve bumped in to Seb countless time’s over the years and said hello, never much more than that sadly. It isn’t possible to do too much to honour him and I trust that the (true) staff at the Valley will come up with something wonderful. RIP Seb.
There's not been a match day in recent years where I don't recall either seeing Seb, or clocking a reminder of his presence and dedication to Charlton.
For that to now not be the case going forward... I can't believe it. Devastatingly sad. RIP Seb.
Such desperately sad news that will touch every corner of the Addicks family, Seb was part of the Charlton furniture, as others have said, an ever present no matter how 'many miles have you travelled'.
I last saw his famous worm coming out of the Hawthorns earlier this season and well remember the one on the embankment leaving Carlisle after promotion.
One true memory was from an early St Truiden trip for the Stayen Cup, to retrieve his flag he had to walk through @Henry Irvings bedroom, the following morning as were leaving to check out, he was waiting patiently in the corridor, he didnt want to knock and disturb Ben.
His flag flies proudly in the museum and I am sure will stay there, a true Charlton legend.
Just numb, can't quite take it in. All thoughts and prayers with Ollie and family, things just won't be the same, Legend understates Seb's love and devotion to CAFC. RIP Seb.
Not the time but maybe the club take one seat from The Valley & one ticket out of every away allocation from now on for Seb as a mark of respect.
The Official Capacity of The Valley should be changed on the Official Site, Wiki, or anywhere else that records the figure.
It should now read 27,110 + 1
How can the passing of a man I knew only by sight have such an effect. I am devastated at this news - part of our club has gone forever, but never to be forgotten.

Done.
Sadly Wikipedia appears to have changed it back to normal already
This is tragic I have no words, The Valley without Seb is going to be surreal. RIP Seb one in a million and will never be forgotten.
@TCE Gave me the idea of a cover photo tribute to Seb so I put this together feel free to use it let’s show all his family how much we thought of him. Fly high Seb and do that worm x
This is terrible news, many condolences to his family and to all of you here that knew him. I had never met him but, like all Charlton fans, felt like I knew him due to the constant presence of him and his very visible flag.

The Valley just won’t be the same.
RIP Seb.

Hopefully the club will paint a mural where his flag hung in the Covered end.

RIP Seb. Truly tragic news
So sad
RIP Seb
You'll be remembered
Done.
Goes to show how massive a role he played in our community as a set of supporters. Like @stoneroses19 said, he was part of the match day experience.
RIP Seb
Awfully sad news. RIP Seb
