Charlton Scratchcards

MrOneLung

Did anyone else use to sell these to raise funds for the club back in the Selhurst days?
I used to sell them aged 17/18 in 1988-89 around the Shepherds Lane area of Dartford.
Anyone buy them from me ?

The guy organising it was a porter at West Hill hospital, who used to get the match day coach from Dartford to Selhurst.

MrOneLung

So is that a NO then ?

I sold them in the well hall area and at the ground

I still haven't had the £20 I won in 1988. PM me and I will tell you where to post my winnings to.

We used to have a bloke called Terry go around the local streets knocking on doors selling them for years.
When he stopped, we just put the money away each week and saved it.
Even now, my mum who is 78 puts a few £ away each week and still calls it "Terry's money"

I used to sell something similar in late 60's early/mid 70's the cards were a manky red colour and if I remember rightly you had to match 3 money amounts and you also got a goal time in minutes and seconds to win £100 i think if a goal was scored at the time you had in your card. Sellers of these 'cards' had free entry to all home games.

I’ve thought about nothing else for 6 years, but I can’t remember if I did.

MrOneLung

You do realise if we have to unwind all the banking to pay out these ‘winnings’ it is like meeting your own mother in Back to the Future and you will wake up with us still in the portacabins at Selhurst

Never sold them but I did press the intercom to Bolloxbolders flat in Abbey Wood and ask if wanted to buy a Crystal Palace lottery ticket (My spies told me they were active in the area). The response is best filed under “Not safe for work”.....
