    460 points here. Fingers crossed for some tickets being available at 9.30am tomorrow then. Feels unlikely.

    To add to the fun, the ticket office is closed on Thursday’s so you won’t be able to speak to anyone about it until Friday...
    The club's ticket office will be open for telephone queries only from 9.30pm - 5pm on Thursday and Friday.

    The biggest issue is the blanket ban/attendance figures for the whole efl 8000 in our ground is easily doable with distancing take a few of the smaller grounds Bristol rovers for example they surely couldn’t do it with 8000 
    Its 30% of your seats, not a 8000 cap.

    Just been told by the lady on the phone that having an Early ST renewal isn't enough by itself after all.

    The rolling system isn't going to work next season as there's a fair chance there won't be ANY away fans this season

    Sure, that's not super clear on the website.

    More annoyed now that 20-odd years of season tickets, and away games (bought through a family member) don't contribute to loyalty points.  Ho hum.

    I thought it was very clear. 

    I know people will be dissapointed but I am not sure how else they could of done this.

    "2020/21 Season-ticket holders who purchased before full season tickets were replaced by 22-game season tickets, on Monday, August 24th, will qualify to purchase tickets, with access to tickets then decided through the club’s loyalty point scheme." 

    How is that clear?

    Anyway, not worth getting into a dialogue.

    Clear as day if you purchased before the 23 game cut of you qualify. you then get a chance to purchase based on your loyalty points which if you have had a season ticket in 2019/20 and 20/21 you will have at least 460.

    Fair enough.  I know I wasn't the only one to read it as "Early ST get first dibs, then any left over divided amongst those with loyalty points."

    Sounds fair enough. I dont have enough points, as only went to a handful of games last year, but have a season ticket this year. Not too fussed, priority should go to those with most points. Just have to hope that larger crowds are allowed soon so all season ticket holders can get a look in. COYA

    PS anyone know if streaming games gets you loyalty points?

    @roseandcrown thanks mate, was just curious as to whether that would be a way of earning extra points this season, with no away games. I've tried to stream one game but gave up after repeated requests to change my log in! Might give it another go, if I can be arsed!

    Yeah they will have an issue next season if no away games allowed this year as it will leave most people on 460.

    Counted about 800 left. Managed to get 2 rows behind my usual season ticket seat and in same block as my old man.

    I was eligible due to having enough points to select a ticket so was able to add them up.

    The website confuses the crap out of an old git  like me.

    I just phoned the ticket office and sorted it in about 2 minutes. 

    Can't wait.

    Fuck of Elliott 

    Come on you Addicks.

    Left me on hold for 15 minutes,  twice over, despite explaining that I purchased my ST post Doncaster ones for obvious reasons and having max loyalty points, the balls up with cashing in notwithstanding, told we have 500 tickets left, can't have one but if I phone tomorrow at the same time, after referall to "management" same refusal. Because of course the remaining 2k or so will be causing telephonic meltdown at 9am...

    You do realise that the situation for a lot of us!!

    My season ticket was initially £455 in my block - I got it for £435 because I knew it didnt include the Doncaster game, and I'm fully accepting I'm not eligible for the same amount of games that others will be eligible for when they've paid more for their season tickets in the same area
