    Yeah, definately reclaim the Anti as soon as possible! Great idea. Has to be done.

    Be fun going to my ex's brothers pub! hehe. I like the Anti, and we should reclaim it!
  • Apparently the H was meant to be done up a bit more but ran out of money and got an offer to be turned into flats they couldnt refuse.

    A large chunk of the people in there now drink in the Cons, Although the OB seem to have civil powers to beable to keep selected people inside for certain games.

    On a matchday I cant see the OB allowing fans to mix or letting home fans use it. It will mean they will have to shadow a lot more of the surrounding areas Greenwich, Blackheath, London Bridge. At the moment they can get them off the train and put them straight in the anti. Both roads onto it are very open and it would be hard for anyone to try and attack it.

    Never paid for the cons myself but to people who dont know the doormen it is usually £2.00 or £10 for the season.

    Pity that another pub has closed in the area. Still plenty of choice for everyone else.

    Is the Anti big enough to run two separate bars on a matchday, home and away like the Sky Blue Tavern used to in Coventry?

    Does anyone drink the The Valley pub? Used to go in there sometime when we first game back and had a lot of Charlton in there despite the long walk to the Charlton. Free food as well.

    I heard that it changed ownership and a lot of people stopped drinking there.

    Used to have a huge, black and white, wall filling picture of a 1930s crowd at the Valley

    It still did last time I was in there, although that was a hell of a long time ago - it has a big CAFC badge on the front so I doubt it's gone. About a year ago I saw an application for flats to go up on the site, but the pub's still open.

    Hello... from what I hear the Horse and Groom has been bought by a group and will be turned into a Church. Honest.

    I drive past the new wine church near the woolwich ferry every day at about 6.45 am when they all pile out of there . What do they do at that time of the morning in there , or do they kip there overnight ? Very odd

    I know a bailiff who had to go and clear out one of these churches in Deptford area last year, he told me loads of people slept there, OB went with him, nicked loads of illegals, so its completely possible.

    one from the Ultimate Charlton Song list:

    http://www.charltonlife.com/forum/comments.php?DiscussionID=11252

    Away in a manger, no crib for a bed
    The little lord Jesus popped his head up and said:
    EMBRACE PALACE, WE'LL EMBRACE PALACE
    EMBRACE PALACE, WE'LL EMBRACE PALACE
    EMBRACE PALACE, WE'LL EMBRACE PALACE
    WE ARE THE PALACE, EMBRACERS

    I think that sounds like a plan!

    If you got any where near the 50 mark the plod wouldn't move us on as we would not really be doing anything wrong!

    All meet there at midday with your creats. Lets hope we get the first game at home and its 80f!!!

    Without saying too much the way things are going, you'll be lucky to get any kind of drink on charlton lane come the new season. apart from the shop that is! Very very sad state of affairs... how to wreck a nice local pub. I could really really bloody rant on.

    Feel free to rant B.

    If RO goes and OB dont want home fans in the Anti and they are trying to stop people going into the Con club where do they actually think people should drink ?

    O yes silly me this would be a logical question and logic and OB well .
