Your Football Firsts this season…
Had 2 at Wrexham on Saturday
1. First time I’ve seen Charlton play outside of England
2. I’ve had someone sit next to me fall asleep during the game before, but I’ve never had TWO people concurrently asleep! One slept for the whole 2nd half, the other for part of it. I’m sure it would have been a cheaper day just having a booze up in Greenwich!

As far as I can remember, it's the first time I've seen Charlton play twice in a day before. The U21s versus Barnsley and then the 'First XI' at Cambridge. It's fair to say that the U21s were far better, but that's no compliment to them.3

Oh come on, you must have seen Charlton at Anfield, Goodison or Prenton Park at some point over the last 35 years? Merseyside doesn't count as England apparently.AFKABartram said:Had 2 at Wrexham on Saturday

Apart from trips to Wales, I've also seen Charlton play at Millwall in the Anglo Italian Cup.
Had to fly to Sud Bermondsey for that game.1 -
First time to Bristol (City) been to Rovers with Charlton, so completed the city of Bristol. Never been to a cold night in Stoke (so looking forward to that), and Coventry as well.
Family and friends: First South London (Millwall) Derby with my cousin (done Palace previously with him), and his mate who is Sheffield based came to his first football game there.

A couple of time this season I've entered the Curbs Stand via the Lansdowne Mews entrance, the first time I've ever done that in the 31 years I've been sitting there!5

First visit to Preston.0

First time in R block of the West stand.
Soon to renamed Enlarged prostate block.
I can sit with my legs over the seat in front, stand up, move seats, go for a wee without bothering anyone. Perfect

Free beer at half time at QPR was a first for me.1

First time in safe standing (@Ipswich)
Really crap, even more annoying when people need to go for a piss/poo/pint/spliff or that weird stuff they stick in their gums than seating is - even less space.Not for me, I didn’t realise at the time but the advantages of terracing back in the day was being able to easily move away from smelly dickheads when required but this negates that plus point…1 -

First time I've missed the kick-off at The Valley for a first team game - at least as far as I can recall. I didn't realise how bad the parking restrictions were and ended up near Blackheath.
I do recall arriving at half-time at Norwich many years ago because we got a flat tyre somewhere in Norfolk. As I was changing the tyre, a local walking along stopped at my car, looked at the tyre and told me, "that f***er is f***ed". Most informative.0 -
Started my own club for the first time which has meant lots of firsts - like washing the kit for the first of many, many times.1
