edited January 2010 in Match Day Travel
Any possibility of having a coach pick up point for away games in Chislehurst High Street somewhere, cos for some of us, Chislehurst is nearer than Eltham or Bromley, so would make it easier just to walk to Chislehurst and not have to wait for the bus.

And no, this is not a thread saying I'm lazy.

    Its more convenient for me, not being lazy, I'd rather walk 15mins from my house to Chislehurst rather than going on a half hour journey to Eltham or 45mins one to Bromley

    If you're offering to do it :P

    It wouldnt create any more bother really, already picks up at Bromley, goes through Chislehurst (so why not pick up there) and onto Eltham

    Depends on the demand of people wanting to get on at Chislehurst i would say. If there is yourself and Joe Bloggs, then it's not worth the time for the club or the coach drivers.

    Or put out a note in the programme and bulletin and ask people their views?

    why don't we have hundreds of pick up points at places that suit everyone. probably end up taking the coaches about 6 hours to get to wycombe but it would save on the convenience though.

    How about a South Yorkshire coach Airman?

    Honestly jesus wept Nathan, walking aint gonna kill you. After that Easter trip to Man City in 2007 I walked from the valley to leytonstone after the game because that's where the coach came in!

    What with Nathan moaning about wanting the pick up points to be right outside his door by all accounts & Rupert moaning that the club stitch him up everytime they rearrange a postponed game - I give up, the pair of them need to man up, bet they both sit in the East stand with a travel rug & flask FFS.

    I cant believe no one from the Bromley area will pick him up from home, and drop him off a bit nearer to the coach stop. ; )

    I cant believe I am expected to walk from Charlton station to the ground.
    Sort it out Charlton - there are hundreds of fans who do that same journey - surely some kind of transport can be laid on.
    I have to literally, like, walk up a bit of a hill for 30 maybe even 40 yards, and like, sometimes walk past some away fans.
    If this is the way the club treat us supporters, then I think it is,like, out of order.
    Can someone phone the club for me as I have not got, like, any credit on my phone.

    Wow, it's like you red my brain or something. Those moving walkway things like they have at airports is wot the Club should buy.

    And can they build a special path from the back Garden of the Liberal Club direct to the ground. 100s of Charlton fans in there every game who would use it.
