Leyton Orient's pitch does not look any better than ours.

I imagine they didn't install an expensive new pitch last summer though.

No, they had it done 2 years ago

Thought the sides on the Palace pitch looked as ropey as ours! Hopefully they got mugged for their pitch.

The pitch looked much better this afternoon. Not cut as short as previously.

Lots of pigeons which suggests a lot of seed has been spread.

Pigeon Watch - an honest group of grafters who are proper Charlton. We are in your debt.

Probably not aimed at me but I have no idea who or what these teams are 😳

What is this new thing (not just tonight) of a penalty circle and not a penalty spot?

Been like that for years. Was wondering when the change came in

There were people chucking grass seed on the pitch in various places just before the teams came out for the warm-up today. Possibly hoping that players will tread some of the seed into the ground and save it from the pigeons? The pigeons were there in large numbers and clearly word has got around about the free food on offer at the Valley.
