Hi everyone,
Just called ticket office re: Millwall game and they say i am not valid for a ticket, this has really annoyed me as this is because i did not have season ticket history from championship seasons which is cos i cant afford it anymore hence why i havent got one this year. i know this is not their problem, but did mention have been to 3 away games this season... colchester, orient & narwich but they do not have previous season tickets i have held which was 2005/2006 previous 2 years north upper and before that in the west upper for about 3-4 years
This is irritating but they did say only way i can get some is if Season Ticket holders can get me a couple of tickets, so if anyone is willing to vouch for me. i can assure you i am no trouble and supported charlton since i was 12(arsenal before lol)
Would be much appreciated please let me know and will arrrange payment etc or can meet before game and i will buy you a pint for your troubles
Also going brighton away now which cannot wait, should be a tough one but be good atmosphere :-)

Ohhh i really want to go to this one :-(
I just thought of that option funny enough, just seemed easier to post at first
But hold the thought everyone will come back if still no luck but should be fine i reckon! know prob over 10 season ticket holders who should defo get tickets, as long as they havent let them Scummy millwall supportes use them( i doubt they would)
Went with my cousin but i always bought da tickets and he gave me the money, but now he also cant afford it lol
are you Millwall in disguise?
Haha thought someone may say that in the words of someone(i forgot who lol) 'NO BLOODY WAY'
They turned me down on my membership card because I didn't fulfil the criteria. This is probably because I buy tickets on the matchday without my card.
I have season ticket history from 3/4/5/6 years ago so obviously I'm not Millwall but she just said her hands were tied.
I was severely pi$$ed off but have since got a ticket using a friends season ticket.
No chance of a sellout with this attitude.
The rules are in place and for a good reason. Glad to hear they are following them. No, there won't be a sell out which means we won't have Millwall all over the place which is the whole point.
Maybe if you'd used some common sense you'd have got one of your ST holding friends to get you a ticket in the first place so avoiding being "severely pissed off" for having to wait a few hours to get a ticket for game next month. Gawd, how terrible is that. : - (
So therefore thought would be able to talk my round millwall and didnt work? fair play they are just doing there job but us quite frustrating especially as we have had season tickets just in this current climate cant afford to go to all home games, which ideally would want!
I will try that but it is still annoying that we cannot purchase them, also have to let them go through hassle of calling up and ordering tickets, its inconvieniant but again its my fault not their's so will deal with it!
The Club put a block on it and more power to their elbow. Millwall fans are like no other and we don't want them in the home areas.
Yes, it is right to have strict rules in place, but if someone is outside the 'criteria', but have season tickets from 3-5 years ago (which i am presuming will mean their details will be on the club computers), and have details of them attending games, away games etc this season, surely that should suffice ?
I would have thought ST holders would be more likely to get tickets for Millwall fans?
Why?
You run the risk of having your season ticket confiscated!
I agree with you and AFKA re a bit of flexibility for "proven" former ST holders. I guess the potential problem is defining proven.
So what if we upset, delay or inconvenience some of our non season ticket holding fans?
It's right to have strict rules in place. But it's not right to criticise the staff for adhering to them.
And it's worth remembering that every fan who decided to support the club at the start of the season by buying a season ticket will be able to get in to this match.
I know mate, was just stating that feel bit weird how brighton cud talk my way a ticket and not millwall. that sed millwall is a higher risk game etc so understand it completely
Also isnt brighton supposed to be a derby or bit of history aswell, not that anythings going to happen just thought wud be same criteria in a way
That sed my lunch in a minute and going to get on the blower to a few pals to get a couple of tickets so im sure i will be fine and this thread will be sunk then :-)
Or it could be that as we were always told that many of the Prem ST holders weren't "real" Charlton fans but fans of other clubs they are just the type of people who wouldn't care if tickets got into the hands of Millwall fans.
And as lapsed ST holders the club would have no sanction against them as it does against the current ST and members.
As Curb-it said, any Charlton fan will know some ST holders so should have no problem getting tickets.
not really was tongue in cheek comment really did state can understand it just trying to put a spin on things as brighton is sort of a derby but nothing like millwall agreed lol
Think you've just been found out. Your not Millwall, your Palace!
Unfortunately, the computer records don't go back beyond about 2005 or 2006, but bear in mind this only affects people who haven't bought more than one advance ticket in the last two seasons or been a season-ticket holder in that time. Most 2006/07 season-ticket holders renewed in 2007/08 and would qualify on that basis.
We recognise that this process isn't 100 per cent perfect, that some people will be inconvenienced and miss out, and that some Millwall fans will slip through the net whatever we do, but we have a responsibility to our regular supporters.
You're gonna get slaughtered............................
