Am I allowed to go to the museum?

in General Charlton
With the current boycott on spending etc...what is the situation regarding the Charlton museum. I would like to take my kids but if the entrance fee goes partly or wholly to the club I would rather wait until the Belgians have left the building.

Thank you.

    The museum is separate from the club - in other words, yes

    There is no entrance fee. But they take donations.

    I believe donations go straight back to the museum as well. Despite the boycott it's important we keep this going and support it during this time. God forbid it became a doctors surgery or something.

    Also, I for one will look forward to one day visiting the exhibition about the current protests and telling my children the story of how we successfully got our club back.

    ALL donations and money made from fans buying items from the museum goes into the upkeep of the museum.

    Where will the museum go once KM decides to turn the space CAFC gave to an orphaned squirrel clinic ?

    As said it is a separate entity and is apolitical.

    There is no entry fee in any case

    Anything you spend or donate goes to the museum not the club

    The club doesn't and never has funded the museum.

    Open Fridays 11.30 to 3.00 and 11 to 1 Saturday home matches.

    No money in orphaned squirrels, and far too kind. Maybe somewhere for ivory poachers to store their ill gotten gains at an extortionate price...

    Do they charge you rent for the space used?

    I am sure the 'NHS' call centre turns her a healthy profit.

    Get big rog igrob gobrib etc into the adult squirrels and orphan numbers will quickly increase.

    No rent and the museum paid for the refurbishment and redecoration itself.

    I think it's more important now than ever that you go to the museum.

    Every fan should go at least once.

    Every fan should go at least a dozen times and spend/donate lots of money.

    I don't think the collection would be safe under a bridge

    Boycott the Museum. Let's get the message home loud and hard.

    We converted the outhouses to accommodate the cook, gardner and maid. Otherwise it might work.

    In upcoming news we've been given a match worn shirt by one of the biggest football museum's in the world.

    We are about to be given a hard drive we've been hoping to get for four years

    We found a photograph of someone we lost 100 years ago but recently found again.

    And the new website is nearly ready.

    In the meantime come up and visit or follow on @chathmuseum. Today's theme Charlton and fags
