that's not a bad start for a match out in the sticks, on a good friday, kicking off at 5.15pm, live on tv, not on general sale yet and with a home game still to be played beforehand...the 1689 allocation should go...
[cite]Posted By: Southendaddick[/cite]More than I thought would be sold at this stage.
A load will buy before Wigan but lets be honest here, no way in the world this will sell out.
Already double what we took there last season.
IF we don't sell out it will, IMO, be a disgrace. We should sell out and then be begging for more. I don't expect fans to go to every away game but there are some that don't go to any but at the moment we should be expecting some of those to come out of the woodwork as it were and make a extra special effort for either City or Everton or Blackburn.

Wrong. It's a terrible start. How is Manchester out in the sticks? Also there's no work, no school, decent timed kick off, massive game. Maybe people are waiting until they get paid before the Wigan game?
By the way, is it on prem plus or normal sky. If its prem plus people will have to pay anyway
A lot more to this than just the time and distance, i would love to go to every away game but due to finances this does not work. I have 3 kids to take to every game cant afford this every time.
It's not that i dont support the team it's that sometimes it's just not possible.
Point taken there should be enough to fill it no problem.
a few of us are going to get tickets for this but are dreading the travelling. we want to get a room for the night in manchester. Any know of any cheapish hotels near to the ground?
try here....if you book it online it's £39.00 - this is where 3 of us are staying. It's about 15minutes in a cab to the ground but in the city centre for the night life.
the 'stay inn' is also another option just a bit further down from the travelodge, they do 3 adult rooms too. 2 twins with a bunk bed over the top to save costs
it used to be called the dolby

But this is Charltons away support we are talking about.
There are a few factors in this one as well, namely Easter weekend and the kick off time.
I was bang up for the original ko time of 2.30, not as up for a 5.15ko.

so how many should we get v Reading on Easter Monday ??
You can still plan a day around a home game. City away the coaches leave at 9.30-10 and will get back at 1-2.
Personally I hate 5.15ko's unless its something like Newcastle when your there for the weekend.
If it was 12.45ko I would be there in a shot, but thinking about giving this a swerve and ive done all but 3 away games this season.

in fact, knowing how disorganised most are, i'm quite impressed !
