Charlton’s 2023/24 pre-season schedule

I know the players are going to Malaga, but are we actually playing Malaga, if so anyone on here been to Malaga?

 What’s it like, a bit of a lads holiday, or a sophisticated, cultured, elegant kinda place?

Both. Beautiful city centre with lots of history. Made for a very decent day-trip when I was on holiday in Granada a few years ago. But the surrounding towns tend to be over-developed tourist places which people go to for the beach and the beer, so there's lots of facilities in town for that sort of trip if you prefer. There are loads of stunning places a reasonable train-ride from Malaga, if scenery, history or architecture are your thing - Cordoba & Granada are the big ones, about an hour or so, or Seville's a bit further.

Fuengirola is lovely, so is Torremilos. 

More family aimed resorts.
Torremilos perhaps a little more lively.

Charlton v Chatham Town Tuesday 4th July 7:45 Kick-off.http://www.chathamtownfc.com/

Planning on doing Welling, Chatham and Dartford. Also keen to do Malaga. Would prefer if it was 2 games out there though. 

Is it just me that always thinks of Seb when pre-season is mentioned?  Games abroad etc when he was about the only one there.

The issue here maybe related to who is going to pay for this trip?!

Cant see TS covering staff/players flights and accommodation for this when he plans to exit soon & new owners are also unlikely to fund it until a deal is done.

We were due to play Leyton Orient in Marbella but have seen they're going to the Algarve now, so not sure if i was being told the truth 🤔

Better golf courses in the Algarve

That's what it's all about.

Just had a response from the club re the Spain trip. The training session is on Thursday 13th July at the Marbella Football Center, followed by a player Q&A. There’ll be a friendly the following day (K.O. 11am), with opposition to be confirmed later this week and the venue closer to the date itself.

Showing the slight randomness of these games, Man U's only pre season game in the UK will be against Olympique Lyonnais.

At Murrayfield, the rugby stadium in Edinburgh!

I notice that after all the fuss about their pre-season game with Wrexham, it turns out they're sending a youth team.

The United first team squad are playing Real Madrid on the other side of the USA the next day.

Orient in Spain confirmed.

The game, which is open to supporters, will take place in the Malaga region on Friday, July 14th (11am KO CEST, 10am KO BST) – the exact venue for the game will be announced in due course.

The club intends to stream the game live on CharltonTV and further streaming information will be confirmed in advance of the match.

Hope they release who the "big name" is soon, reckon we'll play someone like Brentford or Wolves at home

Will be Luton if they go up, just to really show us how times have changed 

"Manager Dean Holden has encouraged supporters to join the Addicks in Spain and, as well as the game, fans will be able to attend a training session on Thursday, July 13th at Marbella Football Center in the Malaga region.

Supporters looking to attend the training session should register their interest by emailing website@cafc.co.uk."

We'll get to watch Albie Morgan and Darren Prately run rings around our midfield! :wink

The game in Spain could be a sellout, I’m sure Charlton fans will be out in unison to wish Macauley Bonne, a fond farewell, seeing as he never got one, from the valley faithful.
