Stadium Info
Selhurt Park has a present capacity of 26,309 and is an excellent example of a traditional English football stadium. It was also the home of the first ever ground sharing scheme when Charlton Athletic moved in temporarily in 1985 whilst the Valley was redeveloped. The stadium itself has a real football feel to it. The atmosphere is regularly very good and the noise created by home fans on cup games is rarely beaten at this level. Given the choice, sit behind either goal for the best views and to avoid structural pillars.

Away Fans
Visiting supporters are now situated in one side of the Arthur Wait Stand at the end closest to the Whitehorse Lane End. Over 2,000 away supporters can be accommodated here but there are many bad seats that need to be avoided if possible. Seats toward the rear of the stand are wooden with little leg room and hindered views from an over hanging roof and a supporting pillar. If you're lucky enough to visit when it's unreserved seating, my advice is to arrive early.
Food and Drink
Clifton Arms on Clifton Road is a good option. Turn left out of the station and take 3rd road on the left. This is the nearest pub to the ground. A large selection of real ales. Away fans admitted if they get there early, after 1:30 it is home season ticket holders only.
Another bet is the Wetherspoons pub opposite Thornton Heath railway station which welcomes home and away supporters, is reasonably priced and serves food.
