Sky love a United game and the other ties aren’t exactly exciting. I think it will be on the box . Either way I’m going anywaysuperclive98 said:
45% to each club, after expenses deducted I assume. A nice little windfall. Even bigger if shown live by Sky, which I can't see happening.ForeverAddickted said:What are the rules surrounding Gate Receipts?
Do we stand a chance of making more money with the game at Old Trafford.
Should be more in attendance than what the Valley can hold you'd think3 -

Driving into Manchester our coach pulled up at traffic lights next to a car where a woman in the passenger seat was choking the chicken off the bloke driving. Never seen two people panic so quickly when they noticed the coach!Boom said:Last time I went to Old Trafford with Charlton, some animal ate my arm hair, @stop shouting threw up in a pint glass and we got stalked by Dennis Twigg at the airport. Happy days!12 -
If Sandgaard wants to build bridges he/club could do much worse than laying on free coach travel for this.

Can United can raise their game?0

The club organised charter train(s) in 1994. I'm not sure such trains still exist, as it was old rolling stock rather than the normal Inter City stock of the timeLewis Coaches said:
With the club?Solidgone said:
I went by train.Lewis Coaches said:
Back in 74 the only way to get up to Manchester was make your own way up there.ForeverAddickted said:Bet the club will be stupid and wont run a Valley Away service...
Even if they do it'll probably be one or two coaches, especially if there is to be a Rail Strike!!
Lewis Coaches said no coach travel due to too much trouble up in Manchester.
As I recall 9 of us back of Bedford van went up together . Cost of ticket seats 1 pound 10 pence .0 -
surely Charlton fans of all fans must have some connections in the train community to make it all work out2

I took a week off work for the 5th round and along with Wendy Perfect, camped out at The Valley taking just the coach bookings.Airman Brown said:
I’ve been doing the coach times for them for the last year… but no way am I organising this.LargeAddick said:
Have a word with the new COO can’t you Rick? Someone down there must be able to give you an introduction.Airman Brown said:
Club has discretion to take less though. Nobody down there will have any idea of what we’ll want. They also have no experience at all of running a big away travel operation.Callumcafc said:
League Cup rules state that the home team must give at least 10% of capacity to the away support.J BLOCK said:How much will they give us do we know?
So 7400 tickets available minimum.
It's a huge amount of work.3 -
It's a real test of the "always show United" mentality.Bedsaddick said:

Newcastle vs Leicester looks the best game of the round, while Soton vs City would seem a better contest0 -
I see that Utd's FA cup game against Everton is on the Friday, so they will be pushing for our game to be on the Tuesday, to give them more time before the Manchester derby on Saturday lunchtime.
I wonder if we can negotiate a bigger share of the gate receipts if we agree to Tuesday.0 -
The club will make plenty of money from the tie. I don’t think it needs to make money from running coaches, but I wouldn’t run free travel either as it’s difficult to manage efficiently. You could charge £20 and cover costs.Er_Be_Ab_Pl_Wo_Wo_Ch said:If Sandgaard wants to build bridges he/club could do much worse than laying on free coach travel for this.There is an opportunity here to do something to engage the fanbase and maximise support on the night.7 -
I was 17bat the tike and slept outside the valley to get my tickets. what a day it was0

You just know that everyone that’s been “boycotting” will be posting this on a recurring basis shortly!JoshAddick said:Anyone got any spares for united away?2 -
I remember getting offered £200 outside by a tout for a £25-30 face value ticket whatever it was. I mean how stupid could they be. This was Charlton pre-98. Playing Man U was a big deal before the Premier league years, as it is again now.

No way is this a sell out. Tickets will be available in the home end.3

Despite our rubbish form, I've been to 3 away games this season, and am unbeaten, with 2 wins (1 on penalties) and a draw.
I expect the club to lay on a helicopter for me

What’s next, a relatively normal owner?Addickted4life said:This is so Un-Charlton.
Holding on to a back against the wall 0-0 then winning on pens.
Getting rewarded with a big draw.
Wow I'm enjoying is this, is this what being a football fan is meant to be like?
Nah can't be.
Have faith, the takeover will start to unravel by the time we’ve played at Old Trafford and we’ll have a nutter and/or criminal running the club by then.3 -
Agree - my initial reaction to the tie was there is zero chance am I doing that.Airman Brown said:

But, if given the opportunity to 'lazily' get a heavily subsidised Valley Express from Pembury, just up the road from me, I'd probably do it. Sensible ticket prices needed too, obviously.
Something like this, absolutely served on a plate, could see a big turnout.

Just get on a train or get on a car & get yourself up the M6.
if you get there early have a few beers in Dean Street..
It really isn’t hard. We’re big boys & the club shouldn’t have to hold our hand.
My message was more in frustration about the negativity of Airman’s reaction to a fantastic cup draw.
I get that the club are short staffed and less experienced than they were in the past but we’ve just landed an absolute peach of a cup tie and it doesn’t help when the first thing an influential guy like Rick says is ‘the club would have no idea what we want’.
I mean I am sure they are capable of booking a few coaches…how hard can that be!Get behind the club and help us get out of the current predicament rather than constantly slagging the club off. This draw is great news and something to be excited about.4 -
But who would be in charge of making that decision and are they capable of pulling it off?Airman Brown said:

We took 700 to Morecambe when no trains back. We will easily sell 5k+2

What have you heard @Bangkokaddick ? ... fxck @off_it man. Passion for a club need not be defined by postcode. Football is a global family of which i am proud to be a part of. I think it's wonderful that Man united has given the mentally deranged folk of Mumbai and Bangkok something to be a part of.Off_it said:I wonder what the guys in Mumbai and Bangkok are saying about this one over on UnitedLife?1 -
We've got two and a half weeks for this to go well. Based on all available evidence around the club's running of late - last night, for instance, with Brighton - then this could be a disaster.Oh Eddie Youds... said:

Airman has this sort of thing ingrained into how he has interacted with Charlton all his life basically so I don't think it's fair to knock him for that. He's probably well excited about the draw, like we almost all are, but fair enough if he posts about what needs to be done3
