Just watching match of the day, and saw Charlton have sold no more than half of their allocation at Spurs!!!

And was wondering why they have such shit support?

They had next to no one up at Man city at the start of the season either!

Why do they have no fans!?:D

Easily explained. The poor sods did'nt like having to travel Selhurst, which for many of their fans was too much effort, despite it being a 30 minute drive on the South Circular Road or a similar time from Charlton via London Bridge to Norwood Junction. Tottenham must seem like an expedition to Lapland. By caravan, of course.

And there was a Charlton fan on here very recently saying that Spurs are actually their biggest rival.

Either that's true, and they've just shown very poor support for their team.

or....

It was lame, childish response to our triumph over them the other week.

Easily explained - too much hassle to hitch on the caravan to the ford Capri and pay all that extra petrol money. Plus, who'd look after the 15 sprogs and the Poundland outlet - and who'd keep their eye on the pitch down by the Woolwich ferry where they clean the windscreens?

The clowns only sell out their home games as they are by far the cheapest in the premier. In fact, Charlton tickets were cheaper last year than Palace tickets when we were in Division One. They also give away lots of freebies...even though they're in the Premier.

Away support is a measure of how loyal supporters are. Majority of Charlton fans are all Gooners or Chelski or Spuds fans who cant afford/be bothered to go to the highbury library, SB or WHL.

A sizeable chunk of their home support (and season ticket sales) are from non-Charlton supporters who just want to see Premiership football but either can't get or can't afford tickets at their clubs.

The West Ham game could have sold out many times over and Millwall not so popular.

I think the reputation of Millwall has put off a lot of our older fans. Combine that with a December Saturday and that's the reason (not excuse)

I am going with my husband because I have finished my Christmas shopping (apart from the food) :p

Btw someone called the ticket office yesterday afternoon and there were 500 left so do keep up at the back :)

The funny thing about going to Millwall, especially at the old Den, in Cold Blow Lane, is that you could actually go to any part of the ground and find loads of Palace fans, some standing with their Millwall pals during the games!

My first two games at The Den, were way back in December 1975 (jeez I'm gettin' old!) the first, was an FA Cup Tie and I stood with most of the Palace support at the "Half-Way Line" there were plenty of Palace fans with their scarves etc, so the next week, I thought I'ld go on my own to the Ilderton Road End, with my red & blue scarf. Mistake!

After trying to explain that it was actually an Aldershot scarf, I still took a bit of a pumelling, although I was left alone to throw up in the corner of the stand, where I was told, rather helpfully, that it's best to keep your scraf hidden and to be fair, there seemed to be quite a few sympathetic words. From that time on, I've been to every Palace Millwall game since and usually stood at the CBL (Cold Blow Lane End) where you just don't mention the word "Palace" unless you're snarling!

There used to be dozens of Palace fans standing shoulder to shoulder with the very people who were threatening to kick the crap out of us!

OK - I dont have (and dont want) the inside info you have at Brighton, I was going by what was being discussed on North Stand Shat.

I would've though a mere 1700 tickets would've gone pretty quickly for a league game just fifty miles away, especially after you beat the Hamsters.

(I've done all my Xmas shopping too)


London Man - I have similar memories of the Old Den to you.
I have to say I've stood in the Millwall parts of the Old Den when we played there with no hassle at all, although when Jim Cannon equalised with his cock in the 3rd minute of injury time I thought it best not to cheer!

When I lived in New Cross I had a couple of Millwall supporting neighbours, they were a decent lot and I used to go to the Den with them every now and then.

I remember going to a Millwall v Charlton game and there was absolutely no segregation at all, and no trouble either. Charlton went 2-0 up with a minute left and I was on the half-way line terrace, there were Charlton fans there going potty saying things like "At last we're going to beat you" to the Millwall fans, including my neighbours. No trouble.
Funny thing was Millwall kicked off and scored, and then with the last kick of the match equalised! Then the Millwall fans went potty . . and HOW!

It can all get very overblown. I think a lot of Millwall fans revel in their terrible reputation, but really wouldn't hurt a fly!

I think it will sell eventually. Some of our lot are pretty poor at organising themselves. Just a few days before the West Ham game there were fans moaning because they hadn't got round to getting their tickets and realising that it had sold out. There were loads of Brighton in the home end that day.

Take 75% of what you read on NSC with a huge dose of salt and weigh up the rest. :)

Something like that.

But at least they turn up and pay their money. And most of them come back to pay their money again. And again. And again.

Then they start 'supporting' the club and purchase merchandise.

It's called building a fan base, which hasn't been at The Valley since the fifties. Good marketing for what is essentially 'a product'.

So why are Palace only able to fill 89% of the ground now you are in The Premiership?

Because we have to give 10% to the away teams.

Blackburn brought hardly any fans down and accounted for up to 2000 of the empty seats, the others were scattered all around the ground, some poeple are away or shopping (forced by their missus) only 2000 seats spare for a relagation battle isn't too bad IMHO.

There is no way in the space of 10 years you can treble your home support which is what has happened at Charlton just wouldn't happen. Sure you'd get a few Kent people following them as they're a Prem side now but not 18 odd thousand! Cheap ticket prices attract the Arsenal and West Ham fans who can't get tickets at their own club but fair play to them they put bums on seats even if they are not Charlton fans who sit in them!

As far as I'm aware we haven't given free tickets away this season.

Tickets were available to local schools in Croydon for your game against us for £1.

Tickets for CAFC v CFC were £45 :eek: I don't call that cheap. They are the same price for the visit of Arsenal on Jan 1st.

We had about 900 at The Hawthorns, not good I agree- and yes the tickets were £20.

Cheap ticket prices attract the Arsenal and West Ham fans who can't get tickets at their own club but fair play to them they put bums on seats even if they are not Charlton fans who sit in them!

You do talk some bollocks Father.

Normally the 'diehards' so better than at home as far as singing is concerned. Same as when you travel.

I've been with 10,500 Charlton fans away and as little as 200 away in the past. Always a better atmosphere the more of you there.

That's absolute nonsense and you know it. The only fans who sing that at us are those aware of the context of it leading directly to the death of a Palace fan. Without that significance it would be utterly irrelevent to Palace fans and I fail to see why anybody would sing about "a minor fracas" 10 years ago if it didn't have some greater resonance.

Quite a few posts there Andy that don't believe the incidents were connected.

I don't think the Charlton fans are sufficently 'in the know' on this issue to sing Cantona songs directly attributable to the death of Nixon. The connection is a bit thin.

I'm proud that the WOTB song is NOT sung by us - and it was a Palace fan that posted it on here.

I expect there are a number of Charlton fans who sing it utterly unaware of the consequences of that incident, however in much the same way I'm sure there are some who sing it knowledgeable about everything that happened. I agree that it's some consolation that the despicable WOTB song is not sung by your fans anymore though.

Great? Your support is a laughable collection of fair weather Premiership 'fans'. You fill your ground with Johnny come latelies paying very cheap prices, you can buy a 1/2 season ticket at Charlton for £150. Compare this with the exorbitant prices at Palace and that explains why our crowds are lower.

Mr Gloryboy. Geography isn't your strong point is it? Firstly you obviously think Croydon is in West London as you support Chelsea. Also, you seem to have no idea as to where Charlton is and seem to think that the hop from Charlton to South Norwood is akin to getting a flight to Sunderland.

Instead we have a bitter hamster whose mummy hasn't helped him get over Cardiff yet and a Plastic fan of Manure/Arse/Chelski (I've forgotten which) who is obviously emotionally scarred by his decision to opt for glory over his local side. Priceless.

I'm not defending Charlton's support. I only got involved in this thread because Shamone & Gooders posted blatant lies regarding Chelsea supporters in home areas at the Charlton, Chelsea fixture which I attended.

And all the 'glory-boy' insults wont change the fact that Palace's away following is only marginally, if at all, better than Charlton's.

Unlike our feline friend, I have nothing to be bitter towards Palace about. But your away support is awful & always has been. Starting a thread criticising Charlton's support when you've only taken 1700 to a play-off semi-final away leg, failed to sell-out a tiny allocation at Portsmouth & had large swathes of empty seats, clearly visible on tv, in your end at Villa Park is a 'pots & kettles' situations in my opinion?

The trouble is though your being selective. The reasons for us failing to fill the away section at Pompey by a few hundred seats have been discussed to death on this site and as for Villa we actually took just under 2,000 which is respectable. You can bet anything you want that Charlton would've taken FAR less to both those games than we did. Of course you fail to mention our sell outs this season at Norwich, Saints, Anfield, Utd, Spurs and of all places Charlton for a cup match midweek. Charlton on the other hand failed to sell out at Anfield, OT or the Lane. The fact is we don't pretend to have a really big away support, but when a team who feel that they're your biggest rivals take the kind of support they did to our place we have the right to comment.

Incidently, Chelsea have always had the most fickle support in football anyway, so what gives you the right to come on here and start patronizing us I'm not sure about anyway.

And some of us are old enough to remember big old Chelsea getting 6,000 on more than one occasion for midweek games when they were in the old 2nd division a decade or so ago so dont come on here gloating you patronising cretin

No Abramovich has only been at Chelsea 3 seasons he'd have been a Liverpool fan back then!

I can remember quite recently Chelsea getting crowds of 17-18,000 in the top division for say Southampton, and then a week later they'd play Liverpool and hey presto 40,000 would crawl out of the woodwork, aka the suberbs of Kent and Surrey.
