Charlton Place

Sorry if there is already a thread on this, I just wanted to see if anyone else had bought one of the stones that will be placed outside the West Stand next year. I've bought one for my dad as it will be 20 years since he first brought me to The Valley and it will be nice to show my kids, in the future, when I indoctrinate them into the Charlton family!

    What wording have you decided on , out of interest ?

    Just the names and "since 1994". You're limited to 14 characters per line unless you buy the £500 one.

    My wife has bought one for me for my birthday. I bought one as a memorial to my late father who was a supporter from the 1930s

    You can be if you want but it means you owe me 28 birthday presents, 29 next Wednesday and 28 xmas presents and I don't want a bloody brick either.

    We are pleased too. But the gold paint on some stones has ALREADY peeled off meaning some people will be upset. Hope they rectify but probably too costly to sort for the club.

    My stone is faded and shit compared to most others. Need to complain when I get a minute.

    Compared to my mates dads one above mine. Mine looks crap imo
  • Me and the brothers bought the old man one for father's day. Saw it today and was already faded. Dad was happy to see his name outside the valley but I was disappointed with the fading. Was going to see it again next game before contacting the club. I'm just hoping the rain didn't do it justice.

    Well we had a good look and quite a few had gold paint picked/washed off already so god knows what rubbish they used. It's lasted a few weeks!
