If we cut the Valley Express, How would it affect our attendance

I know a fair few must use this service, as there are always loads of coaches outside Charlton before a game,
for £8 return for some of the places in Kent, its pretty affordable certianly cheaper then driving,
Does anyone on here actually use the service?
And how do you think it would affect our attendance should Charlton pull the plug on it ?

Season ticket holders around me certainly use it and have said that they would not renew if the service was not available.
I understand that you can buy a Valley Express season ticket.0 -
Why would the club cut the service? That's like getting rid of programme sellers on a matchday.18

I prefer taking the train as you can go into town early, have a few decent ales and maybe some lunch before going over to Charlton, plus you can then stay for some post-match beers if needed. I've been forced to use it in the last couple of years over Christmas though because there are never any trains running on Boxing Day.0

Not this again.
The club stated this season that it isn't being stopped.0 -
Surely if it's making a loss then there isn't the demand for VE that some might think there is?0
-
Have there been any noises about the club cutting the service, or is this pure speculation?
I don't see why the club would cut the service unless it's running at a huge loss. Isn't it set up to cover its costs?0 -
The price next year is going up to £10 return, perhaps a sensible solution if it means they can break even.0

It would be wrong to throw loyal supporters into the hands of the evil Southeast who have even less concern about the cattle they transport at the week end.1

I really hope they don't stop it.
I never use it as I live in Bexley, I just really like the fact that it still pisses off the Gillingham fans that we have it!5 -
I heard that they've sold the seats to away fans so they can have a lovely day.1

We'll both I and my parents have just bought season tickets for next season on Valley Express so I'm pretty certain it isn't being stopped. Also had it confirmed that it is £10 return next season. £199 for a season ticket is good value.LenGlover said:

At the last Fans Forum Meeting Katrien confirmed that the Valley Express will continue and that there are no plans for it to be discontinued3

If they stopped it, I'd go back to supporting Gillingham.11

Will the club reinstate the Essex route?0

It's not being stopped, you can all relax.0

In answer to the question, the attendance would be reduced.0

Essex route ran to Colchester, and there are several supporters living on the Tendering peninsula which includes Clacton, Frinton, Dovercourt and Harwich.0

Cheers @buster2003 I have moved to South Essex. I see a few people from this way on the train up to Stratford going to home games.0
