Well done the faithful.
Maybe we should ask JR if you could have like a Café Nero Loyalty card and get it stamped by each away ground and when full of say 6 games u get one free overnight stay for attending one of the long distance games to help u recover for your return to work the next day.
sorry but I just don't buy the overnight stops at our level and wont mention it again as I will become boring if not already.

we played Wrexham in a 2nd replay at Villa Park (neutral venue) in 1975 in front of a smaller crowd (1,470).
We have played several FA Cup games in recent years in front of smaller crowds, at non-league grounds (one at Forest Green, which was then non-league, and is now league).

There would have been good reason for that attendance. Charlton is an absolute ball ache to get too, M1 is shot to bits, People needing a lot of time off work.

I actually thought the same but found it a doddle. My mate drove down and it took him 2hrs 25 minutes to get there. Me and 6 mates went on the train and had a similar experience. Newark to Kings X then St Pancras direct to Charlton. 3 minute walk from Charlton Station to the turnstiles. Left at 4pm and was in the Rose of Denmark Pub by 6:45pm

No but I’d imagine a large amount have season tickets, why would they pay extra money to an owner they don’t like? I’m not saying everyone didn’t attend due to this but there would be a large amount out there didn’t go for this reason
