So for many years when people asked where you sat you’d have said ‘the East’. What are you going to refer to it as going forward?

    It is named after the great man for a reason - so I will respect that and him and refer to it as The Alan Curbishley Stand.

    Full name too much of a mouthful for me, I’ll be going with ‘the ACS’ I reckon

    I’ll forget and call it the East Stand for at least the next eight years before it finally sinks in.

    Will always be the East Stand to me... Partly because I've sat there for over 20-years

    The Curbs

    The full name is too long to write, and that's how he is referred to anyway

    I still call it the South Stand so not sure how long before I automatically call the East the Curbishley Stand

    I ticked The East, but now the Curb Side has been coined I'm definitely going to go with that. Perfect.

    anyway, when we move to our 50k new stadium on the Peninsula I think one end will be called Curva Curbs

    I still recall standing in the Covered End & gazing at the magnificent East Terrace when occasionally, palice in the cup '69 for one, it would look absolutely jam packed. Will never forget that sight & will always be the East Terrace to me.

    The Curbs "if you like" when speaking in the vernacular.

    When talking to non Cafc fans will call it:
    The Alan Curbishley stand, out of respect to the Manager who took the majority of Charlton fans to our highest ever position in the top League.

    Having sat in the East Stand since the 90s, I know I’ll end up calling it this still.

    The Alan Curbishley Stand all the way for me. It is an honour for him that it has been named after him and I think we should all go that extra word or two with respect.

    Do Utd fan’s refer to Sir Matt Busby’s Way as Sir Matt’s Way or SMB’s way, none that I know, they call it out proud and I think we should do too.

    The man in a legend, so all take a deep breath...
