Just caved in to the little man and got us seats in the Jimmy Seed. No print at home/scan from home for that stand though so let’s just assume we’ll miss the first 10-minutes because of Rolunds horrendous understaffing and general shitness
Or you could collect the tickets nice and early ?
1,000 seats in blocks D,E,F,K and L will become available in The Valley's south stand, which is usually exclusively reserved for visiting supporters.
Once those tickets are sold, it will mean that well over 24,000 Addicks will pack out the stands at Friday’s big game. The remaining seats in the previously-closed block of the West Stand were due to go on sale on Monday, but were snapped up by internal sales, including family and friends of playing and coaching staff, leading to the decision being made to open up the Jimmy Seed Stand to home supporters for the first time since 2012.
Jimmy Seed stand tickets will not be able to be printed at home or sent via the post and must be collected from the Valley's Ticket Office which will reopen at 9am on Wednesday morning. If tickets remain, they will also be available to purchase in person from the Ticket Office.
Supporters who are attending Friday evening's match are reminded to leave plenty of time to enter the ground due to the higher-than-usual attendance and are also urged to avoid bringing bags, if possible, to ease security checks upon entrance.
East Stand ticket holders should be aware that there will be no entrance available via Landsdowne Mews and must enter the ground via the East Stand Harvey Gardens turnstiles.
The Landsdowne Mews entrance will be reserved for home fans in the Jimmy Seed Stand.
Not really by the time I’ve finished work and then gotten al the way home to collect him and then turn around to get back to the valley but hohum these things are meant to test us eh...
When was the last time the JS was split? Hartlepool match?
It may not be the last time - but deffo was for Stevenage. I think it was the game where BWP broke his scoring duck.
Hartlepool at home when we won league 1
Felt very annoyed sat in East stand surrounded by Chelsea and West Ham fans. They were either staring into their phones or getting out of seats every 5 mins to buy beer or take a piss. They Didn't even stay for presentation ceremony.

So essentially the club handled this well. An effective near sell out with supply gradually managed to create demand. A functioning online ticket system with communication messages encouraging everyone to check their fan ID / login before tickets on sale and regular updates throughout. A few incentives to buy tickets thrown in. Unanticipated segregation in the JS stand.
For any relatively minor faults within this process they must reasonably be judged as acceptable in the grand scheme of things.
Well done one to all concerned I say.
Sure there will be some issues on the night getting everyone in on time but what a pleasant problem to have.
We've not needed to subcontract to Ticketmaster either this year

Is this near the chippy or the other end?
The entrance near the Chippy is the Sam Bartram, Landowne Mews is in the top corner above the electronic scoreboard between the East Stand and JS South Stand.

The Lansdowne Mews entrance was always known as the Sam Bartram entrance. Home fans to the Jimmy Seed stand on Friday.
If you're in the East Stand you will have to enter via Hervey Gardens.

Well I never, you learn something every day. I'd always thought that because Sam's shop was near the turnstiles in Valley Grove, that entrance was named after him 😊.
It’s gonna be carnage East Stand queues crossing over with family stand get there early
I got to the road I usually park down about an hour before the game against Shrewsbury this time last season and seriously struggled to get parked - Intend to leave for the game even earlier on Friday to avoid even this as imagine parking alone will be carnage

Still, at least it’ll be easy to get a beer at Half Time.....
