All over the prices are insane, a Chelsea mate told me he'd regularly been paying £90 last season. We've all been saying for a long time it's hard to see how the bubble survives but soon this will literally be for the rich and tourists to go and watch.
This certainly already true to some extent and becoming truer for the big premiership clubs. That however is where there is gap in the market for clubs like Charlton so long as we get the pricing and marketing strategy right.
Tweet not visible for me. Presume it was about the 3 pack deal. Saving of £10 over 3 games before 31st Dec, based on early prices. So for covered end lower, 3 x 23 - 10= £59 outlay against 3 x 26 = £78 if buying on matchday.

It's not a terrible idea for a promotion but it still doesn't get round the fact that prices are too high. Just using the zone 2 ones it works out at £26 a game which I believe is still more than last season. If my maths is correct a season ticket in the same zone averages out to £18, while of course ST should be getting discounted rates the disparity is far too large imo.

And not a massive reduction anyway, especially as the £10 discount is the same whether you are in the cheapest Lower CE seats or the overpriced halfway line seats
Doesn't help entice the casual fan either. Money conscious would be regulars like me maybe but it won't pull in causals or new fans for league 1 football.

Yeah, in terms of percentage discount for each zone its 17% zone 3, 11% zone 2 and 10% zone 1. Surely would have made more sense to just say 20% saving and apply it to all 3.
As the replies to the clubs tweet say. It’s still way too expensive. Ipswich are doing a 3 games for £45 package. So much better value than even the cheapest seats we have on offer and better football to watch as well
How do you go about getting the tickets for games two and three?
Do you buy a ticket for game one plus receive vouchers / codes for the other two games that can be exchanged for a ticket at future matches of your choice?
Surely a system like that makes more sense than forcing you to choose the three games up front? For one the tickets in December aren’t on sale yet and two, how will people know what their plans are up to three months in advance?

It’s a step in the right direction but committing for 3 games is still expensive in the current climate for many. I’d stick to a buy one get one free type offer.
If we make it back to the premiership in my lifetime you wont see me.
That's the sad truth for me too. Will have to make do with watching us in the pub whenever we play one of the Sky Six.
As it's about as likely as me smashing Amanda Holden up the arse I wouldn't worry about it.
Everything Charlton seems so depressing since the close of the window I haven’t bothered looking on here much - all that talk about trying this formation and the free agent market and all that nonsense it’s all a bit pointless but this is a refreshingly direct and accurate observation and wonderfully put 👏👏

True, you’re no Les Dennis
She might not have left it him if he did - if I had been married to I’d of got hold of anything that weren’t fixed down and whacked it straight up her Gary - she wouldn’t be looking elsewhere !!!
other than my observations on Amanda Holden I have nothing to add - I will continue to go and support and live in hope but have zero expectation - probably how les Dennis feels

Yep I'd wager that RELATE marriage guidance counsellors up and down the country are bored of hearing the relentless procession of unhappy wives they speak to citing the primary driver of their marriage dissatisfaction was lack of anything not fixed down being whacked straight up their Gary's.
Was planning on coming Saturday with 3 kids. Unfortunately they're all 11 now so need a U18 ticket, which is three times as much. £64 to watch third division football.
Will be back to Dulwich Hamlet and Peckham Town for the rest of the season.
I paid £22 at the gate to watch Bromley vs Eastleigh on Saturday, so even National League is eye watering.

To be fair, there's a few comments on this thread that are eye watering!!
The thing I find odd is that I was paying £500 for my season ticket when we were in the Prem. I’m now paying £625 for it in League One. Granted, that’s 15 years of inflation baked in, when you look at it the product has deteriorated. Football is a funny old game

Good idea, which shows they are listening, but still a bit too high

Oh AND, BUY A FUCKING STRIKER!
You don't write for Mills and Boon per chance?
