Unusual things you have taken to The Valley

Siv's wonderful thread about the lost gnome at The Valley has sparked this thread. No one has asked yet but I do wonder why Siv took the gnome to The Valley in the first place.

The weirdest things that I can recall taking to The Valley were three tennis rackets that a friend had accidentally left in the car the previous day. I am sure others can do much better than this.

  • My other half...... went down like a cup of sick
  • I did turn up in a suit at the Antigallican on the Tuesday night we lost to Barnsley, forgetting it was an away pub. I'd been at work all day. Goes without saying that about a quarter of the pub starting taking the piss out of me.

    I think they probably thought I was personifying our phrase "we pay your benefits".

    I once took the wing mirror of an 04 plate Vauxhall Zafira in with me, would have been the first season in League 1

    Was that so that you could turn your back to the pitch in protest but take a sneaky look by using the wing mirror?

    Last Tuesday game someone came in with a bag of coconuts which were confiscated by the stewards.

    They are a lovely bunch, the coconuts, not the stewards.

    My mate Glover. He's off his rocker!
  • Uncles ashes. (Wanted to see charlton play before he died but couldn't) he won a bet to that day.
  • A sample. Forgot to drop it off at the doctor's on the way to the Valley.

    My flares.
    But that was the 70's for you.
    I believe they are banned now and at Craven Cottage they have special dogs to sniff them out.
    Which, if my old ones were anything to go by, must be a very unpleasant task for the dogs.

    I don't think it was on a day out - he had bought it in the club shop.
    Anyway to answer the question - my mother-in-law.

    A set of expensive darts. I had been playing at lunchtime and forgetting that I had them took them to an evening game.
    Got home and only had two. My wife suggested that I phone the club to see whether it had been handed in.I said i will pass on that, just in case it was extracted from a policeman's bum.
