Because it looks like the reason we weren't given tickets was because fans would have had to sit above Orient fans so it's a reasonable guess to say that Orient would have sold to stop getting 8k extra Charlton fans in the ground. There's no other logical reason to deny us those tickets. The question is why were they allowed to do that (if indeed they did but I think it's likely)valleynick66 said:
For what you did share yes.Weegie Addick said:

No. Again, I'm talking about the empty seats in our end - not the blocks Orient didn't sell.ElfsborgAddick said:
Orient would have been told to sell in blocks by sequence, I feel sure of that. Thus we could have been given x more.Off_it said:
But what about some explanations about the mysterious empty seats? Surely that's not beyond the will of man?Weegie Addick said:Don’t think you’ll be satisfied whatever is said, Valley Nick. Both CAST and club were equally frustrated by the whole (lack of) process. Instead of calling out your fellow Addicks and the club, maybe a bit more scrutiny should be directed to our opposition - we believe they were pretty astute in how they sold their tickets in order to prevent us receiving a significant number more. We outnumbered them enough as it was.
I'd not be surprised if we were told that to take x more we'd have to pay for any unsold tickets and we were not happy with that.Perhaps I have skimmed too much, my view is that what Orient did not sell contributed with our empty seats.One poster on here who may know otherwise to answer my question, Orient may have been told to sell by block so if they did not sell by a certain time, we could have x amount due to what we have sold.CAST have not shared all they were told it feels.I still don’t know if you have any more information given what you revealed yesterday was until then withheld.You have also implied Orient deliberately manipulated how they sold to limit Charlton allocation. I don’t know why you arrive at that conclusion for example.0 -
There are lessons to be learned by Charlton, the EFL and Wembley and questions to be asked of all three. Hopefully the new CEO takes that up, with prompting from CAST and FF if needed.In the meantime, I can’t get this out of my mind for some reason…

Hard to mark your card when there is only a short time between a semi final and the final. It's not just seeling the seats. Wembley has zones and extra ones would have needed stewards and catering staff.DOUCHER said:Somebody knows the facts that’s for sure - and it’s not us, the fans. Nobody has died and in theory, the most loyal / regular (puts on tin hat) would have got a ticket - it’s just a shame there were 8000 or more tickets unsold that we could have sold and nobody has explained why they weren’t.Next Wembley appearance we get, we need to mark people’s card well in advance so it don’t happen again.

Why did this crossover occur with bloody Wembley tickets, very strange...
CEO anybody...🤷♂️2 -
If it was going to be rodwell then that would have been done by now surely - I reckon he’s off as soon as he can get another job somewhere0

Very logical. No benefit in deferring that decision if he were to get the role.DOUCHER said:If it was going to be rodwell then that would have been done by now surely - I reckon he’s off as soon as he can get another job somewhereMy assumption is we don’t need both a CEO and an MD.0 -
Not sure. There were some very warm embraces between Rodwell and Jones at the end of the Wembley game.DOUCHER said:If it was going to be rodwell then that would have been done by now surely - I reckon he’s off as soon as he can get another job somewhere0 -

Sadly I did read the thread hoping it would be about a potential new CEO instead, it was a debate about Wembley and what CAST did and did not know.fenaddick said:

That's fair but also not what you said before. Anyway we're just adding to it. I hope we get a CEO soon, whether it's Warwick, Rodwell or someone elseL0rd_M0ntagu3 said:

Can we please keep this thread on topic. It's a right chore to have to read through all the unrelated messages. Love you all2

Yes i thought that curious. Perhaps signalling an impending role change? Probably not based on what Airman was intimating earlier. Perhaps Rodwell was just on holiday and Carter was back in Canada.Henry Irving said:Note that is was Ed Warrick being interviewed on CharltonTV last week.0 -

Warrick, having been in the background for a couple of years, has been much more visible in recent weeks, with his CAST Zoom session alongside Carter, and his appearance on Charlton TV talking about the summer work at The Valley, not things you'd expect the "Finance Guy" to be discussing...1

Just look at TS's celebrations after the final, a couple of weeks later he was gone.ElfsborgAddick said:carly burn said:

Nottingham Forest chief Murphy leaves club after difficult relationship with key figures as he releases statement | The Sun
Two immediately interesting bits from this...
It was thought Murphy would be part of the shake-up at the City Ground earlier this season which resulted in head of data and analytic recruitment George Syrianos and head of scouting Andy Scott being axed following a miserable run of results.
And...he'll need to work on the anthem....

A colonial? Good lord what's the world coming to?
Seriously though, best of luck Dane, get it right and you'll find a very appreciative set of supporters.0
