carly burn said:Huge problem we've got as opposed to many other clubs is our demographic and the community within it.
If you walked a 3 Mile radius from the valley and knocked on doors within in that area I suspect only a very small fraction would support Charlton.
We've got a great community trust, but how many of the families and kids they serve in the local area go on to support this club?
Do the same in places like Ipswich, Burnley and Portsmouth and you'd see a completely different picture.
We are greatly reliant on families that have moved away trying to get their kids to follow their parents and come along week after week. When there's longish distance involved that can start to become a problem, especially if the fayre were serving up is pretty sickly.
As far as football goes,London is especially premier League centric and as each year passes I'm not sure there's really a place for a poorly performing league one outfit anymore.4 -

If you fall into that category then your just a moany fucker who wollows in misery0
