Stadium Info
The Valley was re-opened in December 1992 and since Charlton's return, the ground has been majorly redeveloped. Only the South Stand remains almost untouched from opening day with the north, east and west sides of the ground being completely rebuilt. All the changes have taken the grounds capacity up to over 27,000. The South Stand is the only one of the 4 with any supporting pillars. It's a hugely impressive stadium for a club at this level and it's a shame to see it only half full for league games at the moment.

Away Fans
Upto 3,000 visiting supporters can be catered for and they are situated in the Jimmy Seed Stand at the south end of the ground. This build is above pitch level, making for very good views of the playing surface. If the visiting team are unlikely to sell their full allocation, this end may be shared with home fans.

Food and Drink
Away fans being away fans will always flock straight out of the station and cross the road to The Antigallican. This isn’t a great pub, but is safe and easy, which does a lot of football fans visiting a new ground. It is large inside, although the bar is small, so it can take a while to get served. As it is so large, you can get quite a sing song going in the main bar.

From the train station, heading towards the ground at the first junction you come to, you will find one Chinese restaurant that opens on matchdays, two cafes with eat-in areas, two kebab shops, two grocers, two newsagents and two burger stands! Locals have a delicate pallet and favour ‘chips ‘n’ meat’ from Charlton Kebab, which is, as you may guess, chips piled high with doner meat.
