Did Katie walk out onto the pitch with them? I thought she just got introduced to them like the queen does but my son said she walked out with them. Bet Cahones wasn't happy with the pitch invasion. Did make me laugh when after announcing 5 times to leave the pitch they suddenly said we are now videoing you!! Good luck prosecuting 4,000 10 year olds. Muppets.12

Better keep them iPads out of reach for longer

So they'll let a bunch of YouTube need can kids have a game of football on our pitch but the actual fans of the actual club aren't allowed. Karl threw a ball on to the pitch for us to play with and the stewards went mental apparently orders from above... good to see they still have their priorities right!Bedsaddick said:A few thousand kids playing footy on our pitch !

Who or what are the youtubers and why would you watch them?0

First time Will (13) & Pippa(10) have sat in a sold out Valley.
Let's hope the next time is not too far off.....1 -
Kids watch their videos mainly gaming ones I guess. Tips on playing FIFA, minecraft etc. The Sidemen are a group of these who make football videos, pranks etc. Guess for kids it's like people going to watch a charity match with a bunch of Eastensers actors in. Not there to watch the football but to see "their" celebrities. Most of these youtubers have millions of viewers of their videos so attract big endorsements and make a fortune.CAFCBourne said:Who or what are the youtubers and why would you watch them?

But, as someone posted earlier, why watch them play football ? It would be different if they were showing how to play Pokeman or Minecraft, but why do they think these geeks would be any good playing football ? It just goes to show how mad this world has become. You cant get more than 10k into the ground to watch 2 professional teams play football at a standard that is way above the common supporter but you can get 27k into the ground to watch 22 nobodies try & kick a football around just because they are good on the internet.Nug said:

People watch them because they are entertaining. Something we can't say about Charlton for most of this season!
Also, its obvious that an annual event will have a greater attendance than something that occurs at least 23 times a season (especially something that is low quality).
Youtube is the future of visual content. Get over it and embrace it. Otherwise you'll be the future's version of the elderly failing to use and understand the internet.

Apart from the numbers this is no different to celebrity football matches which used to be a regular thing when I was a kid. Remember a game at Erith & Belverdere where Dennis Waterman was meant to be the main attraction. Rode down on my bike to see him and he didn't turn up!1

I went, I am old (48), my son enjoyed it, he cheered and fidget spun all afternoon, no-one died.

Exactly this, they are celebrities to kids and have millions of fans. Not sure how many watched this live online but expect it was massive.johnny73 said:Apart from the numbers this is no different to celebrity football matches which used to be a regular thing when I was a kid.

Took my 16 year old daughter and her friend, who wanted to go far more than my daughter. It was the first time since the 12th of September 2015 I had been to The Valley, although I knew the club shop was having a refit I can't believe the club didn't find someway to try and flog (what the two teenagers with me called ) merch. I spoke to a member of the club staff as well about the club shop and the fact there was a sellout at the ground, he was as bleak in his view of the future as I am.
I opted to not go in and found a nice spot to read in the sunshine as it isn't often I get that much time to myself. When they finally came out out the two girls, who had never shown any interest in watching football, both said they loved and my daughter said she would go to a game with me if I wanted. Which was the nicest thing she has ever said to me.17 -
