Orient at Brisbane Road Sunday 25 October 1981 (1-1) and December 26 2023 (lost 1-0). 42 years (15402 days to be precise). Saw a brilliant Stan Bowles penalty.
Leyton Orient 1978? I can't find the date, as the game was abandoned at HT when it was 0-0 My first ever game, went there with the Cubs, a rather random ground really 18/08/2009 - we won 2-1, so around 31 years
Not as a away fan but went to the Goldstone last game they played there back in 97. Went back to their new ground farmers/amex back in I think 2016 so nearly 2 decades.
Derby 2-2 Charlton at the Baseball ground 1994 Derby 2-1 Charlton at Pride Park 2019 25 years apart.
For same ground think it would be Forest 1-1 Charlton in the mid 90's can't remember exactly when, Kim Grant scored (1994?) Forest 2-1 Charlton 2012 about 18 years apart.
and a special mention must go to Port Vale I went there 3 times in the 90's and not been back since the 1-0 win with the free coach travel, would break my record if I go back any time soon.
27th September 1988 Northampton v Charlton 1-1 midweek League Cup at the old County Ground 21st December 2024 Northampton v Charlton 0-5 league one guff at Sixfields

In your case 34 of those years have been spent on the karzi 😀
I am planning to go to the Cambridge game in April whilst visiting a fellow Charlton fan who lives in Suffolk. The last time I went there ( Again with him ) was in September 1978. So it will be over 46 years. A 1-1 draw.
The last time we went there, it was the only occasion where we have been physically attacked at a game. It was on a railway bridge about a couple of hundred yards from the ground. There were five of them and the two of us. I got nothing worse than a split lip and, unbelievably, we were actually getting the better of it when the police intervened. I remember one policemen saying I was an idiot for openly wearing a Charlton scarf. As was the fashion in those days I was wearing it around my belt.

Selhurst. My one and only visit to the away end there in August 1995, followed by a visit to watch the women play in April 2019. Slightly short of 25 years.
Feb 1996 Oldham v Charlton at Boundary Park; 1-1 (Kim Grant)
Jan 2024 Oldham v Hendon at Boundary Park
Did Hendon manage to take over a 100 there?
I think it was 320. Basically every regular plus some occasionals. One of my best ever football days and the Oldham staff/fans were class.
A fantastic turnout.
Support has dwindled over the years, what with two lots of ground sharing, so it was great that literally everyone came along. About 40 of us did Oldham pre-match hospitality before being walked around to the away section.
A last min winner, after conceding a last min penalty equaliser capped a perfect day. Just one of those days that any proper supporter deserves at least once in their lifetime.
Reading away at Elm Park Jan 1997 which if I remember finished 2-2 please correct me if I'm wrong and then a 2-1 defeat at the new Reading stadium August 2024.

My dad came with me to the Wycombe game yesterday, his first match at The Valley since October 1980, so just over 44 years.
I should add that he isn't a Charlton fan (or indeed a fan of any club) but in those 44 years has seen us "home" and away at Selhurst and at Wembley.
