Seen these posts by the club does this mean Valley Gold is funding the youth academy again?

Not sure what you mean? When did it stop “funding the youth academy”?

Saw in this thread VG stopped giving money to the club. I have always been confused (especially when I see and watch interviews about how our academy is not adequately funded) how much, financially VG gives to the academy.

What interviews have you seen or listened to which says that that the academy is underfunded?
Why on nearly every Under 18/21 report or news update is the following statement added if VG had stopped funding the academy?
Charlton fans can support the academy by signing up to the Valley Gold scheme. Valley Gold enables fans to support the club’s academy in unearthing the talents of tomorrow, as well as giving them the chance to win cash prizes.

If you are confused the VG website may help you.

There was a period under RD where funds were 'withheld' if you like pending certain guarantees as to what the money would be used for, it may be that people are thinking back to.

I'm aiming to get Valley Gold around 1 August. Any reasons to delay or buy it earlier?

I've already missed out on the £15 discount on the season ticket (but hopefully I'll get it next season).

You don’t get access to away ticket allocations until 6 months of payments are complete (unless you pay for 6 months up front).

Difference between now and August 1st is negligible on this if you are waiting though.

If you are planning to buy any merchandise you get 10% as a VG member. 

The way the club are churning out a new or retro shirt every 6 days you’ll have saved you your first months money in 2 1/2 weeks
