I can see more than a few headlines regarding Stadiums, Fans, heat, Security. Was all about the money. Didn’t Platini change his promised vote to Qatar from another country at the last minute and wasn’t his son working for the Qatar FA at the time. Nothing untoward of course 🤔 No idea but more than a few made a lot of money from this. Apart from the cheap labour building the Stadiums of course. |

Two nice grounds to look forward to visiting.Remember both their previous stadiums!!!! Burnden Park and The Valley. Didn't realise that Charlton had moved from The Valley again. The Original Valley had a massive capacity.Charlton ended up playing at various locations and the derelict ground was totally re- vamped to become what it is today. Attachments:

Anybody getting excited yet? I still can't get my head around it being held mid-season, no anticipation building up in this household at the moment. Not particularly, have a feeling we'll disappoint at the group stage. Doesn't help that most if not all games will be at some weird hour of the night over here. Where are you based, Australia? |

Charlton played at Selhurst park and Upton Park for seven years from 1985 before returning to the Valley their original ground. |

Anybody getting excited yet? I still can't get my head around it being held mid-season, no anticipation building up in this household at the moment. Not particularly, have a feeling we'll disappoint at the group stage. Doesn't help that most if not all games will be at some weird hour of the night over here. They're not that weird really. England's games are on at 1pm, 7pm and 7pm. The matches are pretty much tailored to suit a European audience. If the USA were actually interested in 'soccer', then they'd be on at really odd times. |
