    This will complete the championship away grounds for me, ready for a minimum of 3 new ones next season in Wolves, Burnley and Cardiff. 
    totteringham will be a high demand for tickets.

    Going on Saturday. Taking a friend of mine from America. He has never been to a ‘soccer’ match before. 1st game for me since the Millwall debacle at home last September. Looking forward to it!

    The debacle was away, not at home.

    Will be ticking this one off. I’ll need Bristol City and Stoke next year as well as Cardiff for Championship grounds.

    Yeah I defiantly wouldn’t call Millwall home a “debacle”. Should have won though. The debacle was yet to come…

    Not the one I was talking about. We were beating them at home and they scored an undeserved equaliser. That was a debacle because even then we couldn’t beat them.

    Even then, when we had 10 men. Strange idea of debacle!

    You can’t have been supporting Charlton long if you think that classes as a debacle!

    What kind of digital sales process do we have here when tickets are taken off sale almost 48 hours before event time, and for the period that might be high demand, i.e. end of month pay day for some, on top of late bookers? Could it be half paper based, or a middleman such as CAFC involved that needs to settle an account or submit returns before matchday? Or another example of shooting self in foot for commercial revenue and depriving fans from attending?

    I’d imagine it will be Swanseas’s decision rather than ours, as they are the ones that actually make money from the ticket sales and can decide when to stop selling them

    And given that tickets have not gone off sale this early for any other away game this season, I think it’s definitely a Swansea decision rather than us

    Maybe any remaining tickets have to be returned to Swansea, so that they can be sold on matchday, in which case the tickets would probably be carried on the team coach, which probably departs from Sparrows Lane sometime Friday morning.
  • Tickets will be for sale on match day. Yes, to tickets travelling with team. I am in Swansea now. Wondered whether they might travel by train? Friday pre BH roads and all  that

    I always find it bewildering that I could book a flight to anywhere in the world on a Friday night, but I can't buy a Charlton away ticket (I am booked and going).

    I don’t understand why you can’t (and this happens frequently) buy on the day.

    You can, the home club just want you to pay in advance

    Such a stupid logic that you can’t but on the day.
