An opportunity for Nile John to impress

Is it just me or did anyone else think there would be a train on the pitch in may when opening this post.

A train on the pitch is Charlton's equivalent of parking the bus.
Surely?

8-12 age group already sold out?

Well, with my "anoraks and trainspotting" comment", that's exactly the point I was implying in my opening post.

Tried yesterday for one of my kids but his age group had gone already. Not told him yet :-(

If the demand is there surely they will put extra dates/sessions up. Get the kids on the pitch and they will stay supporters for life, isn't that what TS wants.

Must have filled in just a few hours

Athletico Charlton

Was this advertised as a perk for season ticket holders? 

It was one of the main reasons I signed my two up as members on top of their season tickets, not sure I would have bothered otherwise.

Thankfully I got them both spaces yesterday as someone told me about being emailed otherwise I would have missed it and had the right hump!

As a heads up @Ollywozere might be an idea to amend the advertising article if certain age groups are no longer available

Couple things,

From the error I’m getting I think it means I’ve to purchase a membership for my boy?  

Also anyone know if there are 3-4 years left?

AFKABartram

Yes @BR7_addick still availability in that group mate 

BR7_addick

Excellent, signed my eldest up to the 3-4 group he’s gonna be over the moon with this 👍🏻 

Don’t supposed anyone knows the details of what they’ll do etc?  My boy will be asking if they’re doing shooting n matches etc 😂 proper keen one. 

Darty Valiant

Apparently Thomas and his mates are joining in

Yep!  Had visions of some pre-war rolling stock or a carriage from the Orient Express.

You smuggling yourself into the 8-12 category again this year?

RickAddick

Maybe they could add some extra carriages?

Fantastic, can we get one of those at the valley?

My 4 year old had the best evening, the coach Dante (probably spelt that wrong apologies) did very well controlling them all and the setup was very good.
