Still find it wrong that the majority of season ticket holders can’t buy until 11am tomorrow with the game just a week away. Should have made the various loyalty points periods shorter. Plus no timings on the coach or whether they are running any on the normal Valley Express routes.
On the other hand. How can a season ticket holder who might not of done one away game have priority over a fellow fan who might of done 10 home games and 10 aways?
You answered your own question. S/T holder has contributed more financially than the 10 home game fan. The 10 aways financially benefit the other clubs competing with Charlton.
had an st up until last year and do about 6/7 aways a season and occasional home games and was at the Brighton game for me giving me a priority over general sale is fair.
What I don’t agree with is 2 per member - I don’t see the point
It's mainly so adult S/T holders, can get 1 for their kid, who they often take but don't have a S/T. This I believe was the biggest problem if they limited it to 1 per S/T holder.
It's only adult S/T holders that are allowed 2 ie not kids.
Feel an early finish from work and a midweek trip to The Valley on a non match day may be on the cards - Saturday has shades of 1994 written all over it

But that suggests that the only criteria that matters for ticket eligibility is financial support for the club. What about just…support? You say it like the only benefit of fans going to away games is financially supporting the away club.

It’s not the only criteria though, is it? The proof of that is that you do get loyalty points for going to await matches.

Am I correct in saying there hasn’t been any coaches confirmed for Kent area yet?
Hi @Bigfatpete. I emailed the ticket office and said I would be interested if they ran coaches from Kent. They said its under consideration and they would let me know. Not seen anything yet. I'm not buying unless coaches confirmed.

Vocal support is great, but it doesn't pay the bills. No money, no players, no club.

So is it only adult season tickets that qualify for 2 tickets? I have adult and U18 ST, and am able to purchase tomorrow from 2pm and was hoping to get 2 through each ST so 4 in total. Can’t see that info on the website.

Hi @CafcWest yeh they told me the same, they are leaving it pretty late to decide if to run one or not. I haven’t bought either until I know if it’s running.
Charlton have not yet got the Man U tickets. We "ordered" our 8 today, plus 4 previously.
But why not? Surely it wouldn't take a club the size of Man U long to get the tickets printer and couriered down to us.
yes I was told we have to wait for an email saying I can collect. Really don't want to queue on Saturday. Can see loads missing the start of the game. Carnage.

I agree. All I’m saying is the loyalty periods should have been over a shorter period or reduced somewhat. We have had about seven loyalty tiers and probably shifted about 3k tickets. They could have reduced the tiers and the sale times. Of course it’s right that those who have done away games get higher priority over those that haven’t the last couple of seasons.

@oheddieyouds any idea where in the away end they're allocated? Can only see what appears to be a section in the corner for home fans when the home lot were put in.
Playing one of the biggest clubs in world football and some fans can't work out why so many others are so keen to attend.
This is just what happens when a football team is successful. We haven’t had it in so long that many have forgotten what it’s like, some of the younger fans may never have really experienced it. If we got back to the Prem one day you would have about 15,000 additional season ticket holders who didn’t tough out through these years in the dulldrums.
All saying how they followed us all their life Like what happened when we went into the prem Competing against each other on who was more a Charlton fan jokers you either support us or you don't simple as that
Purely out of interest, what time were you down there & how many were queing (if any)?
Around 3pm. Didn’t see any other fans…although every window at the ticket office was staffed.
I only went down there because a) I live close & b) I hoped doing so might allow me to collect my tickets (but part B didn’t work out as the club haven’t received them yet).
There’s no real advantage to going down there until the tickets come in…unless you want the option of a standing ticket! (which it sounds like you can’t order online).

Utd give away clubs just over 500 standing tickets I believe….& standing tickets are still available as of today.
So is it only adult season tickets that qualify for 2 tickets? I have adult and U18 ST, and am able to purchase tomorrow from 2pm and was hoping to get 2 through each ST so 4 in total. Can’t see that info on the website.
I would be in phase one
You would be in phase six.
As no tickets have been sent out yet maybe give them a call tomorrow if you want a standing ticket.
United now have standing areas in both the home & away end:
