Someone on Twitter is saying we’ve asked for more?
Tickets for Saturday's Emirates FA Cup second-round tie at Gillingham have now sold out.
1,512 Addicks will make the trip to Priestfield Stadium this weekend as Michael Appleton's side seek a place in round three. No additional tickets will be made available.
Is there an unanswered question still on why the tickets went on sale relatively late that only complicated the various priority tranches?
was that down to Gillingham or our own internal efficiency?
Gillingham only put the tickets on sale last Wednesday so nothing Charlton could do
So we were 2 days behind them I assume ?
Still wonder why we were not ready same point as them - the club would surely have known (ball park numbers) what we were getting ahead of this and devised / revised the priority bandings accordingly.
Regardless I assume in practice most if not all who wish to go have secured a ticket.

They will want the tickets in their possession before they start selling them

The tickets need to be physically moved from Gillingham to Charlton causing the further delay at our end.
The club can confirm that an extra 96 tickets will be made available for Saturday's trip to Gillingham.
Subject to the additional batch of tickets arriving, they will go on sale to supporters with 230 loyalty points from 2pm GMT tomorrow (Thursday, November 30th). Any remaining tickets will then go on general sale from 4pm GMT tomorrow.
The initial allocation of 1,512 tickets for the Emirates FA Cup tie sold out this morning.

Fair point. Seems overall that Gillingham were tardy in organising themselves.

Good advice. I would usually park around there....out of the Medway Tunnel, over a few roundabouts & then right, up the hill. Once on the flat start looking for roads on your left. Once you see the the level crossing you've gone too far.
