I thought any kind of bundle was limited to overseas buyers ?. Would be great if non ST holders got the same offer too.

Nope the £16 bundle is just for Season Ticket holders by the looks of things

Almost a compromise for those who paid expecting to see all home games yet are getting an alternative along with a refund

Dont forget Non ST Holders also pay more on the gate for a standard game than a ST Holder will do so no difference to that really

If I'm gonna do that, I may aswell get a firestick with ifollow loaded onto it. I just can't be arsed with the faff of a VPN.

This is where I am getting to. I think £10 per game on top of the £6.50 a month I already pay for ValleyPass is a piss take.  £7 a game is less damaging, but ideally I would prefer to pay next to nothing. If only there was a big bad millwall fan that could help when I eventually do buy a Firestick

Jesus - VPN and firestick? I've absolutely no idea what they are. You lot make me feel old. I've only just started using Valley Pass and all worked well. Does this mean that, without knowing, I have a VPN and/or a firestick?

Haha VPN is for private browsing, means you can watch TV from another part of the world, dodgy porn or buy crack from the dark Web. 

Fire stick is basically pirate TV (not blue peter)

Thanks!

It looks like I'm ok with just Valley Pass.

I imagine Mr Tatters would know about VPN but I don't think it's a conversation I want to have!

Using 'Charlton cash' was unintelligible to a technophobe like me and in any event they wanted £1.50 'real money' when I tried to use it anyway.

Therefore I gave up completely on it and just pay my £10 and plug a lead from a laptop into the TV. Touch wood it has worked well other than the week the sound was cocked up. At least the picture was still working.

As it was impossible to use it for me I requested a refund of my Charlton cash which eventually happened.

I am a computer illiterate old git living in the past but, as Katrien liked to mention, Charlton has a lot of them amongst the support and I don't believe I was the only person unable to cope with the ramifications of Charlton cash.

A VPN hides your location or allows you to change it to protect your web browsing, it means people can't easily hack your I.P address and get access to your computer and data. For example they can't see your payment details etc... It also allows people to access Valley Pass games for £7 instead of £10. 

A Firestick is basically a way of turning your TV into a Smart TV. It can also be modified to allow you to watch all ifollow games for about £50 a year.

So.... The £140 season pass just became £195, but now also includes cup games?

Match by match passes for international supporters have gone up from £5 to £7 to £10. I guess it was felt that it is unfair for there to be a different price for uk and international.

Still £200 cheaper than it is for someone that doesn't live overseas.

Gotta feel for clubs when their income is decimated, but it’s possible to watch matches on a PC for free.

Tbh, with the money we'll get from the grant sale and the fact we kinda can't spent it, it would be an amazing gesture if our home games were free. If Dulwich can do it, then so can plenty of others.

Making this a sticky for a little while so people don't complain they didn't know the CAFC Cash and bundle deadline was lunchtime on Friday.

I don’t even think it would be amazing, should be a no brainer.

Would scrap the rewards for watching issues too.

I doubt if the Grant money is quite as suggested and in any event the club will be facing a substantial operating loss which still needs to be covered.

MuttleyCAFC

What might actually make money rather than lose it in a left field way is the club saying for home games that the next one is free if we lose it. I say make money because more people may buy and we shouldn't be losing too many home games from now.

Don't think it will happen though. Might be a bit too complicated to do.

Match Passes for abroad are now £10 to bring them in line with what fans from UK and Ireland pay

Have the EFL finally used their brains to combat VPNs?

Oops just posted this on the other thread. What about season passes already paid?

You do not need another code, go to the normal page.
