| Charlton crowd issues 21:05 - Feb 6 with 40708 views | E17hoop | Well before the game the crowd was struggling to get in and there was a serious crush right before the game. I strongly suggest sending complaints into Charlton, that was dangerous. |  |

| Charlton crowd issues on 17:22 - Jul 2 with 1762 views | themodfather | off issue but safety related, there was a major gas leak in soho 2 weeks ago, i was evacuated from home with one minutes notice !! my point being the chaos that followed , no immediate control, people just dispersed as no one told us where to go, then later police got locksmiths to force entry into homes to check gas levels , luckily some of us were nearby and brought keys etc and were allowed in with escort to open doors. a business told me they found their fire exit push bar did not work and a padlock chained around it so they were trapped ! not good at all, they did find another way out but this is not good. even in modern times safety is a bye word . how long for the grenfell report to be released and maybe someone to be arrested for it? |  | |  |
| Charlton crowd issues on 11:46 - Sep 2 with 887 views | E17hoop | More news - Charlton's Safety Team contacted me this week and invited me to the game on 9 September to meet them and discuss the changes they've made following my complaint and their investigation. Unfortunately I'm out of the country for work and travelling back while the game is on, so I can't take them up on the invitation. I've replied and asked what has changed in practice, particularly around the external crowd management, steward deployment, queue management and arrangements for dealing with late arrivals. My son and a few friends will be there, but I'd also be interested in what others going to the game notice. If you're there, does the operation look any different from February? Are there proper queues or barriers? Are stewards managing the approach rather than just the turnstiles? Is the crowd kept out of the road and are there obvious arrangements for managing a late build-up? It would be useful to get a few independent observations of what has actually changed. |  |
