    Sold out.
    Only wheelchair tickets available.

    Edit; We missed out for our 2, even with VG. I forgot to sign in at 11am! 

    Edit 2; So can I be the first to say, I'm looking for 2 spares please.
    Think you need to edit you post again.
  • This is indeed a restricted sale!
  • They should make it clearer as to whether blocks have sold out or merely not gone on sale yet. Ridiculous system all round. 
  • People genuinely believe the speculation on here that it has ‘sold out’. I had a text earlier from a mate saying ‘don’t bother getting me a train ticket, it’s all sold out’. When I asked him how he knew that, he replied ‘says so on Charlton Life’ !!!

    Yeah it needs much better management. There’s been so many times this season people have said it’s nearly sold out when only about a third of the tickets have gone on sale. 

    Plus the nonsense of only putting less desirable blocks on sale first for some games. 

    Feel the club put minimal effort into away games, purely because they see no real financial gain to it 
  • It's so they can sell on a section to their home fans if we don't sell it out.  I'd laugh if they put the last two blocks on sale for only one ticket each though 😆

    What's the chances of this selling out before getting to Phase 7?
    Zero.

    everyone waiting for the seated blocks to be released by the looks of it in 27/28?

    They need to bring Charlie Methven back. The outcome of 23 away games, each with 3 points at stake carries a huge financial impact

    Well they might do on the coaches at £32  - seems extortionate!

    It was £35 to Stoke, for reference.

    There's much cheaper commercial coaches running the route from Central London and airports, though the price would probably escalate on those if everyone did it. Especially to the university towns/ cities. £7 on flixbus to S'ton currently- probably a hidden fee or two on top, and back on a National Express for around £10.

    By the time you get into central London you might as well get a train from Waterloo. What you are paying for here is the convenience of picking you up from say, Larkfield (albeit 48 hrs before kick off!)

    You are right of course on this occasion. Just had a look at train fares and much cheaper than i'd expected - £35 rtn currently from waterloo so, if not on a strict budget for an even cheaper coach, that would still compete against the high price of the CAFC coaches, all other things being equal. And you get a replacement bus from Eastleigh for the last segment of the journey so best of both worlds! (Around £15 with a railcard btw)

    THIRTY FUCKING QUID TO BE SHOVED UP IN A CORNER!!  

    We should start doing the same to any club that does that.  EFL should make it a requirement that blocks for away fans start behind one of the goals.  Why give them an equal support advantage when they don't reciprocate?

    I suspect this will be like the Leicester game where we were effectively in the same stand as both their fans behind the goal and their fans down one side of the ground, ie no sound loss and they got the full benefit of our dulcet tones. A bit of an own goal on their part TBF.

    Fair enough.  I guess we'll see.  Doubt it will be as empty as Leicester though!

    The grounds are very similar. I liked the corner we had..

    If the Jimmy Stand is every rebuilt, I imagine it will be designed so that away fans are in the SW corner of the ground,  with home fans (entering via the Bartram Entrance) behind the goal.

    I thought the away ‘corner’ at Leicester last week was class. We are often in a corner away from home and often pay more than £30. Not quite sure what your point is? It’s places like Newcastle and Sunderland that stick you up in the gods, nowhere near the pitch that we should be complaining about.

    Or QPR where away fans are in the upper tier only

    I agree with this too, great view and my first time in safe standing which I felt was excellent. £27 and worth every penny even without the result

    Well I don't go to too many away games but when I have it's been behind the goal every time.  Not being behind the goal when we score, or being able to give grief to the oppo keeper isn't the same to me.  Each to their own mate.
