Stretching the length of the West Stand, The Valley’s purpose-built press box has more than 100 press seats, each with an individual desk space, phone access and power point.
The box also has a series of ISDN points, owned by radio stations, which allow them to broadcast crystal-clear, live reports and commentary from The Valley.
The club's main television gantry is located at the top of the Alan Curbishley Stand, and camera crews can also be located at a series of other smaller gantries around the stadium, including the north-east corner and the Jimmy Seed Stand.
Photographers are permitted to take photos from behind the advertising hoardings at the front of the Covered End and Jimmy Seed Stand.
Before and after the game, journalists have access to the club's media suite, which is located in the north-west corner of the stadium.
