ST holders unable to attend to retain CAFC Cash / Ballot details for Wimbledon & Bristol Rovers p6
Thomas Sandgaard will enable season-ticket holders who are unable to get to games to retain their CAFC Cash.
Supporters, selected in the club’s balloting system, that are unable to attend on medical grounds or who are over the age of 70 were credited with CAFC Cash for Wednesday’s game against Milton Keynes Dons, but the Charlton Owner has extended the offer to any season-ticket holder who is unable to attend a game while the current balloting system is in place.
Commercial Director Wayne Mumford said: “I think Charlton supporters will have seen already just how important the club’s fanbase is to Thomas and this is a generous gesture at a time where a lot of families are having to deal with a variety of new challenges.
“Following feedback from supporters, Thomas and the Charlton staff have moved quickly to put this in place for our next home game against AFC Wimbledon.
“Thomas has been calling for fans to be allowed back into the stadium and while he wasn’t with us on Wednesday, I know he was watching on Valley Pass and heard the fantastic reaction he got when his message to supporters went up on the big screen.”
Supporters can use CAFC Cash to purchase the live streaming of Charlton games on Valley Pass or on other future purchases. Supporters can also choose to donate their CAFC Cash back to the club.
Charlton welcomed 2,000 fans into The Valley on Wednesday and Mumford wanted to thank the supporters and the staff following the game.
He said: “Wednesday’s game was only approved last Friday, so for the team to turn everything around in such a short space of time is very impressive and a testament to everyone’s hard work and dedication – especially the ticketing team and operational staff.
“We’d also like to thank the fans for working with the club’s staff on Wednesday. We appreciate it is a slightly different matchdays experience and we’ll continue to look for ways to improve the experience and hopefully increase the amount of fans we are allowed to get into the stadium.”
The club and Greenwich Council, who have been very supportive, were very pleased with the way the fans followed the phased arrival at Wednesday game, which helped maintain social distancing outside the stadium. With fans and staff now more used to the process, the club will be able to bring those phased timings closer to kick-off, so for Saturday’s game, supporters will be assigned arrival times between 1.30pm – 2.15pm.

Thank you Thomas
Although would have been a little disappointed had I not been allowed to use my CAFC Cash for games whilst I'm not allowed in1 -
Roland would have included a week end for two in Antwerp.8

Good timing as AFC ticket emails are being sent out to fans.4

Nice gesture but think this now makes it easier for ST holders to pick and choose and their games. See how it pans out.0

I suppose the club benefits either wayBelv said:Nice gesture but think this now makes it easier for ST holders to pick and choose and their games. See how it pans out.
The less ST Holders that take up the chance to go to the game, the more tickets that'll go to Non-ST Holders for £205 -
Thoroughly decent bloke!1

I expected something like this, but only because I have high expectations about how the clubs is being run now

Just got an email saying I’m not been lucky with the ballot for the Wimbledon game I also wasn’t lucky for the MK Dons game. I can see how this time I wasn’t lucky has I’m not in tier 3 and they are lots of ST holders in these areas who are not in the ballot and supposedly fans who got tickets for MK Dons wouldn’t be in this ballot.2

Brilliant gesture and again great adaptive progress from the club as we approach the next game. It would seem that they are listening and engaging with fans again.
I have already received an 'unsuccessful in the ballot' email for the Wimbledon game, hopefully I can apply if any are not taken up just as I had to for Wednesday.

Has anyone who got a ticket through the MK Dons ballot, (Sucessful email) have now been told they are unsuccessful for the AFC Wimbledon game?0

Club have just tweeted to say it's a fresh ballot for every game.
What a truly awful idea.6 -

None of my family group of 5 who my acct is linked with were successful for Weds night and now just 1, an under 18 has an email saying she's successful for the 12th match!!!!
This is not on! This non rotation could mean a s tkt holder might NEVER get to see a home match.
PLEASE TELL ME WHERE TO GO FROM HERE as I'm just about to blow a fuse.4 - Sponsored links:

Its actually a good idea, or those that opted out of Wednesday on week 1, will more than likely always get a Saturday game for the rest of the season.

Really don't understand how they've come to the conclusion that its better not to rotate, that was probably the most sensible bit of the original arrangement3

After consulting fans? What those that went to the MK Dons game?0

Perhaps call or email the ticket office ... There were tickets available after the ballots on Wednesday, i'm sure if any ST wants one they will get one for SatFanny Fanackapan said:

I told them of my displeasure and all I got was thanks for your feedback0 -
I forgot to add that I was told fans who where picked for the game last Wednesday wasn’t happy because they couldn’t make it and meant they wasn’t in the ballot for the next game.0

My group of the 3 are the same. Unlucky on both ballots. Having previously stated how well Charlton handled Wednesday day this is the complete oppositeFanny Fanackapan said:
