    Just bought mine thinking the £3 increase was 24 hours before the game. It's obviously the day before as I paid £33.50 with a booking fee. 

    Anyway, my only reason for posting was that the website lists us as Charlon Athletic. I know we might drop our t's but this feels a step too far.

    Aaaaargh! Just got done over by the price increase thing. So annoying, but I suppose you only fall for it once. 
    For balance, in case AndyG is reading, the ticket office were very helpful in sorting out my kids’ student tickets. 
    Helped me realise we have a game tomorrow. Do love a floodlit game especially with no work on the Wednesday morning.
    But not inclined to commit as paying £3 extra for it over 24 hours prior.

    No fan of streaming but can see why you would want to sit indoors and watch it for a tenner. 32 pounds in the bulk of the home areas for League one football is bonkers.

    Thomas: We don’t sell as many tickets as we should

    Also Thomas: £33.50 sounds reasonable for a nothing game against superstar Plymouth Argyle in the shitty third division

    Effectively £30.50 for Tuesday night with the booking fee. Genuinely ridiculous prices for a Tuesday night game when crowd won’t top 10k
    Plymouth will bring plenty, I imagine.
    They'll have 2000 comfortably.

    I'd love to go this evening. Not paying those prices on principle, f**k 'em.

    Bagged 2 x freebies for Cambridge game.
    Received E-ticket freebies for the Cambridge game today.
    Tickets labelled as ‘community 500’ so presume there’s up to 500 freebies floating about for just the 3rd home league game.

    Would not that be the community trust tickets that they give out every home league game and have done so long before Sandgaard bought the club

    The freebies are starting to emerge again. I have two for Cambridge and the message is back up on the Greenwich Council Intranet advising staff that they can apply for tickets for the next 10 home games a week before each match.

    A number of seats in that area are taken by ST holders like myself who like the view and sitting with football friends, though are still resentful at being exploited by the constant price rises...

    Tommy has got to reduce the losses on his little vanity project somehow. Who better to target than the existing fans. Far easier than pricing tickets more reasonably and encouraging more people to attend.

    Whatever the strategy is, it isn't working. (Pic pinched from twitter)

    Not sure if ticket prices had an impact, but I was pretty shocked by the attendance in home areas last night.

    I reckon there were about 7,500 home fans present - the announced attendance would suggest there were circa 2,000 match sales.

    We’ve struggled to get 10,000 paying home fans to midweek games in recent years, so it’s very low but not a massive outlier. However, it should be better in the school holidays (yes, I know more STs are away in August).

    The key is the match sales didn’t compensate for the missing STs, which were probably a good third of their total number.

    The first thing to effect attendance is the poor quality of football last season. you then add insult to injury by charging a lot more for a poor product.
    Follow that with a huge jump in inflation particularly the cost of travel to a game and expect to see crowds grow.
    secondary factors are it is still the school hols so a percentage of people away on hols.
    Also yesterday the were problems all day with some of the train services which will have discouraged travel.

    The weather forecast a couple of days earlier probably didn't help, Olly's redundancy might have put off a few but the pricing is all wrong right now. A midweek game against less attractive opposition should be priced at around £20 for all stands with no surcharge for late booking or admission at the ground. 

    Those that did go had a great evening (Charlton fans anyway) so some will be disappointed they didn't go but will that impact the crowd for our next midweek game at home to Forest Green Rovers?

    Unless we're in the top 2 and smashing teams 3 or 4-0 every game between now and then i genuinely can't see too many people paying 30+ quid for Forest Green at home.

    If TS has any sense, then he has to do some kind of deal for that one.

    That thing with the player  crossbar beer at half time really was a gimmick to up the crowd according to TS in his video promotion shown at half time. Yet these prices are a prima facie deterrent to attendance .. someone in the camp is not doing their job, or maybe in such fear of losing it right now they are going along with whatever comes down from above.

    Our pricing is so illogical.
    Behind the goal at Shrewsbury Vs Ipswich this Saturday is £22 with no extras for late purchase.
    Sheff W next home game = £24 (Armed Forces £14 a great idea)

    Even moving up to the Championship, our prices are mad in comparison

    Hull City have responded to fan pressure and revised their prices;
    £20 behind the goals
    £24 Corners
    £28. Halfway
    https://www.wearehullcity.co.uk/news/2022/july/202223-match-ticket-prices-confirmed/

    West Brom = £25 flat rate, adults anywhere in the ground.
    https://www.wba.co.uk/news/match-ticket-prices-revealed-202223-season

    Who at CAFC looks at our prices and thinks, "yup, seems fair and reasonable. But let's add a bit more on for last minute/day sales"

    Moronic.

    Should sell these in the club shop;

    Bit confused on prices. So with zone 1 as an example:

    on-line over one day before £34 plus £1.50 booking fee
    on-line less than one day £37 plus £1.50
    in person as above without booking fee?
