Had an old befuddled man panic for a bit there...

...thinking I had conflated separate away day memories of two different trips to Charlton and that neither were the one being referenced!!

Fear not, I WAS there, though the sweepstake win was from my first visit back when we were both Prem teams in Nov 2004!

Lost 4-0
27,057
3,177 away fans
So the sweepy W helped to brighten up at least my away day!

20,023 at Charlton that day (2010) though I don't have a figure for the away attendance (which I'd usually source for my stats notepads).

Bristol Rovers was my/the next away day following it, of course, where they gave us a guard of honour as we entered the pitch, having got the title since achieving auto in London.

So, I didn't win consecutive Cabbage sweepstakes!! There was five and a half years in between!

8,836 at the Mem (again, dunno the away att)
Chris Martin, Oli Johnson & Stephen Hughes on the scoresheet.
