    So you think is right then do you I bye a half season ticket and a away club fans get free ticket because they have a full season ticket and able to bring more fans because I don’t ok
    I love the passion, but it's very hard to understand what you're saying. 
    Guess the complaint is thus

    Half-Season ticket holders arent part of the promotion where holders are being given a free ticket
    Barnsley full season ticket holders are being given a free ticket

    Charlton care more about Barnsley season ticket holders than their own half-season ticket holders

    At the same time you could argue that the club are simply rewarding those who have been there from the start this season and because they've done it for the home fans, feel its only fair to do so for the visiting fans too

    Wouldnt be the first time the club have done similar either - i.e. When its Football for a Fiver, the away fans benefit too

    Also a bit harsh on people who bought a half season ticket and could have gone to Barnsley and Blackburn for a combined £5.

    Isn't there a rule that you have to charge the opposition fans the same as the equivalent home stand, ie the north stand? Maybe something to do with that?
    Always think the atmosphere is better when the Jimmy Seed is full so I don't see a problem with it.

    Isn't it in the EFL rules that a football club when running this sort of promotion have to oblige the other club also.

    If they are next to each other & it's not working, you'll have to give them a ring & they'll do it.

    I think this is a great incentive to bring people back. This will be my first game back so looking forward to it. Well done the Board.

    Very good point. Bit disappointed that I wasn't entitled, especially as the reason my girlfriend got us the half season tickets was because of these new owners!

    Phoned the club and had to get the under 11 a ticket over the phone £2.50 booking fee . Then did the other ticket on line a further £1.50 booking fee so a total of £4 . I have emailed the club to say it’s a bit excessive

    I have a family of Charlton fans: brothers, nieces, nephews, and a son who are all Cafc fans but they don't have season tickets anymore. Only me, and i went 3 years without one as I felt it was the right thing to do, but while Lee Bowyer was still here I decided to get one again. My dilemma is I only have acquaintances and family and it said it must be a friend.

    How sad.

    Well if you're right it will be a bigger attendance than the WBA game, which is good going.
    Airman Brown thought it would be less, with a maximum of 19,000.

    A massive crowd with Williams, fingers crossed, Taylor Fingers Crossed, Cullen Fingers crossed, the 4 new players, Fingers crossed, Bonne and Field on the bench fingers crossed,  Page on the Bench ! Sorry I got carried away. What a brilliant 6 pointer that could be and I'm buzzing now just thinking about it. ( Yes I know the winner only gets 3 points but we win that and we all become optimistic again, fingers crossed !)

    Well after giving a friend a free ticket I'm sure many wont be friends after being subjected to another home shocker and a severe spanking on a freezing and wet and windy Feb day
