ncfc4life 0 Posted April 6, 2010 Just wondering if anyone knows any info about what priority groups got Charlton tickets? They normally let you know the day after the deadline but nothing on the City website yet Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ncfc4life 0 Posted April 6, 2010 Ahh they have just put an article up. All in group two succesful, group three is a ballot and groups four and five were unsuccesful Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Canary Man of Kent 0 Posted April 6, 2010 As expected then. I''ve was lucky and managed to get hold of a couple via a mate, otherwise I might have missed out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aka_riise 0 Posted April 6, 2010 The draw is to be made this week for ballot in group 3. If you''re as desperate to find out as I am, give them a call late in the day on Wednesday, and they should know by then. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gerry Harrison 2 Posted April 6, 2010 Would be nice if those of us who missed out on Col U tickets were given priority for Charlton. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ncfc4life 0 Posted April 6, 2010 Luckily im in priority group 2 now which saves me the usual anxiety of waiting to find out if I have got tickets or not Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spencer 1970 207 Posted April 6, 2010 I''ve been to EVERY charlton away game since the late 80''s (yes even when they played away themselves(geddit?)) but wasnt in the lucky group this time...damn you fair-weather away fans! Where were you on that cold weekday night a few seasons to see Dion get sent off? Was 1000 tops...bastards.Is something special happening at this game or something? ;0)Nay bother...you''ll see me there...i''ll be the one getting ejected from the home seats after 10mins.

e10_yellow 0 Posted April 7, 2010 Are they doing it out of a tombola or something? It is a joke. Can''t understand why they needed to have applications open for three weeks as well, will only get just over a week''s notice to organise the trip if successful, and will miss out on the cheap advance train fares.

wrathsajoke 0 Posted April 7, 2010 my thoughts exactly-i said to them do you honestly draw them out of a hat or something-"oh yes sir,thats the only fair way to do it" had to laugh Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[:-*][/quote]You''ll need access to a CAFC "red card" to get a home end ticket...and at least a 3 game history. Christ knows why, CAFC holds 27k and the most they had all season is 20k and its not like they dont need the money is it? maybe they are bussing in all their "real" fans from mid-kent that deserted them since they stopped playing Manure and Co every other week. Worst fair-weather club just behind Boro''. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Canary Man of Kent 0 Posted April 7, 2010 The reason for the system is quite obvious isn''t it?Whilst I''m sure CAFC would love the ground to be packed, they still have obligations to try to prevent away fans getting in the home end. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
E Block Loyal 0 Posted April 7, 2010 The number of applications is likely to have massively outsized the allocation isn''t it? Will be the third time in a row I''ve missed out. Doubt I''ll even bother with the Bristol application given the scarcity of tickets, ther might even be a ballot for group two?I agree that there is no need for the ballot to be open for three weeks. Two weeks tops should be more than enough for anybody who wants a ticket. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I would have though the away end held more than 3k though?also, It does make you laugh that they have 7k seats they cant sell as the new (12? years old) stand cant take both home or away fans unlike our "sectioned" jarrold stand.Silly club.

[;)][/quote]Then you don''t deserve a ticket!I''m lucky, I have a friend of a friend who works for Charlton so was able to get 4 tickets via him last season (in the home end) and this season (in the away end), (I can''t get any extra one''s before anyone asks), but for him I would prob have missed out in the ballot this year and not been able to get in the home end last year.
