    Don’t blame you.

    I think gold is essentially matches where there will be massive demand for away tickets.

    Zero chance of building extra support at those prices, in my opinion.
    More likely to deter existing fans let alone attract new ones.

    It makes a Sky subscription more attractive / a Charlton TV pass better value. 

    That’s what’s being missed at the never ending nudging up in prices each year. 

    As I’ve said before (and been criticised for) prices need to consider the alternative spend for people.

    Last season’s Gold Prices are these season’s Silver prices. £30 and £35 in the Covered End would appear to be the norm if the majority of our games are marked up as Silver ones.

    As Mentioned further up this thread people won’t be coming back in their hundreds with this price structure. 

    Maybe if they had a membership scheme with matchday discounts for said members, but no one is none the wiser if that’s coming in anytime soon

    Not forgetting the £15 pound discount for Valley Gold members who purchase a season ticket that’s been denied as it stands 

    We shall now await what the Gold Prices will be for the Southampton and Portsmouth games.

    The Bronze prices at £20 for the 2 games v Bolton and Lincoln are fair but with both being midweek fixtures, it’s cheaper to watch it indoors on Sky Sports Plus and as been the norm for midweek evening fixtures for many years at the Valley

    These prices, not going to attract the newly arrived immigrant population of London, who make 41+% of London.
    Even with the generous child prices this would be expensive for many, and they of course can watch their teams from back home lot cheaper than these prices.

    Sadly I think it’s a ticket strategy aimed at the away visitor / tourist market than building home support. It allows to push up the charge to away fans who won’t be deterred by a £5 diff in price. And similarly for overseas tourists wanting to take in a London game.

    Won’t do much for getting Charlton fans in the ground, or building new Charlton fans. Flooding a load of freebies to the Community Scheme for people that have very little interest or likelihood in becoming paying fans has never done it and never will.

    That West Stand will look even emptier on TV next season than it normally does

    the scintillating free flowing football will attract the casual floating fan even at those utterly ridiculous prices , they will dig deep to see the Temu version of Barcelona

    Nearly £40 to watch one of the better games in the NU and £60 for a shirt, I can definitely see why more and more fans are swapping for non league football.

    They possibly already follow Arsenal or Chelsea etc.

    Eight non-league clubs in Kent averaged over 1,000 per game last season - Maidstone Utd, Ebbsfleet Utd, Dover, Tonbridge in NLS and Chatham Town, Folkestone Invicta, Ramsgate and Dartford in Isthmian Premier. These clubs are putting in a lot of incentives to grow their fan base.

    We are off to watch Hitchin Town today, if we like the set up il be taking advantage of the 5 games for £65 deal that they do.

    I wonder if more of us are at the point where the price rises backfire on the club, with more than proportional reduced discretionary spending. Charlton TV, Valley Gold, replica shirts, programmes - none of those are needed to watch a match. I recently cancelled my Charlton TV subscription as I realised I needed to keep a tighter lid on my overall Charlton spend. I don't dislike the channel but very rarely watch the paid-for content and only signed up to "help the cause"; with the club more adept at extracting money from me, my means and motive to subscribe have gone.

    In terms of pricing I feel that many EFL clubs compare and set their ticket prices with those at Premier League without realising, that in terms of experience and the product, a better comparison would be the top tiers of non-league. 

    Non-league clubs are introducing a whole host of deals including cheap season tickets, ticket bundles and subsidised away travel to attract and keep new fans.

    Prices are a lot but I don't mind if it helps the club compete more. But a family of four wanting to attend a game is near £100 plus food drinks close to £130, going to put off most people.
